CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — The rural Nevada county where a blockchain technology company wants to form a jurisdiction with governmental power passed a resolution opposing the idea.
The Storey County Commission on Tuesday voted to "oppose separatist governing control" in a resolution directed at Blockchains LLC and an "Innovation Zone" proposal by Gov. Steve Sisolak.
Blockchains LLC is the county's largest landowner and wants to build a smart city that wouldn't comply with the county's zoning code. Storey County's resolution opposed Innovation Zones but left the door open to working with Blockchains on their development proposal.
