City Council briefs

Tuesday, March 23, 1999 | 11:43 a.m.

The city of Las Vegas has set up a hotline to answer questions concerning the Year 2000 computer bug.

The number is 229-2000. It can be dialed 8 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays. After hours, callers can leave messages seeking responses.

Residents can also e-mail Y2K questions to y2k@ci.las-vegas.nv.us.

The city has also joined with other local governments in the Southern Nevada Y2K Public Information Network, which will hold a forum on utilities on March 24 at 6 p.m. in the Clark County Commission chambers.

Council's plans for Neon Museum set

The Las Vegas City Council on Monday formally set forth its commitment to the Neon Museum.

The council approved a memorandum of understanding with the museum and the City Centre Development Corp. to support the development of the museum.

The museum itself currently has no facility, but restores and preserves neon signs for display both indoors and outdoors as a way to educate people about the city's cultural heritage.

Tatoo parlor districts eyed

Without public comment, the Las Vegas City Council introduced a bill Monday that would establish the zoning districts in which tattoo parlors are allowed.

Councilman Michael McDonald's bill would allow such parlors in both C-M and M (Commercial-Industrial and Industrial) zoning districts and by means of a special-use permit in a C-2 zoning district.

The bill also carries the possibility of a $1,000 fine for operating such a facility in a different zone.
