Council to introduce single business license and weigh $1.1 million police redaction contract
The Nov. 10 agenda also covers transit driver pay, the Canyon Road median design and briefings on DP Road and an RV park.
LOS ALAMOS — Los Alamos County Council will introduce an ordinance Tuesday folding business registration into a single business license, according to the final agenda for the Nov. 10 session. Ordinance No. 02-352 would set a $35 first license and $25 renewals, cut the yearly vendor fee from $50 to $10 and exempt qualifying child care facilities. Introduction is not adoption; a hearing is proposed for Dec. 8.
On the consent agenda is a seven-year contract with Pimloc, Inc., capped at $1,147,000 plus tax, to redact police video and audio.
Council will consider higher pay grades and $4-an-hour retention pay for Atomic City Transit drivers, plus three operators and a supervisor; staff said 12% of the last 103 driver hires stayed. A Canyon Road median design estimated at $711,599 is up for approval.
Briefings, with no vote, cover a DP Road Parcel A-16 concept and a 103-site RV park at 1405 East Road, about $8.8 million for both phases. Council will also fill Parks and Recreation Board and Library Board seats and recognize Community Services for its awards (see our Oct. 29, 2026 story).
The meeting starts at 6 p.m. in Council Chambers, 1000 Central Ave., with Zoom available.
