CARSON CITY -- William Flangas, a mining engineer from Las Vegas, and Todd Russell, a Carson City attorney and son of the late Gov. Charles Russell, have been named to the state Ethics Commission.
Gov. Kenny Guinn confirmed Thursday he selected Flangas to serve on the commission whose membership will be expanded from six to eight on Oct. 1. Flangas worked for Reynolds Electrical and Engineering Co. at the Nevada Test Site from 1958 to 1995 and is now a self-employed underground mining, construction and management consultant.
Flangas, 72, a Democrat, served on the state Public Works Board from 1964 to 1985 and has been active in civic affairs in Las Vegas.
The Legislative Commission on Thursday named Russell, 51, who practiced law for 25 years. He will succeed Jud Allen of Reno, who was ineligible for reappointment.
The governor and the Legislative Commission each appoint four members to the ethics board.
