On Tuesday, April 21, the Fallon City Council approved multiple business license applications, including a nonrestricted gaming license for Boomers Sports Book LLC doing business at Stockman’s Casino. The meeting drew a large turnout of local residents and business owners.
Council members asked the applicant, Joseph Asher, whether the sports book and race book operations would use clerks or machines. Asher said the business would use machines. The license was approved.
The council also approved a mobile food vendor license for George Chandler of Shijo’s Grill LLC. Councilwoman Kent asked whether the “permitted locations” listed in the application referred to areas where food trucks are allowed. City Attorney Trent DeBraga clarified that the language identifies areas where food trucks are prohibited.
A second mobile food vendor license request, submitted by David Colburn for DNC Enterprises LLC doing business as Battle Born Ice Cream, passed with little discussion. Mayor Tedford noted that while he grew up with ice cream trucks and appreciates the idea, safety must remain the No. 1 priority. City ordinances prohibit food trucks from driving through residential neighborhoods.
Council then considered the possible abandonment of approximately 3,812 square feet of city‑owned easement on both sides of Timber Way at the intersection of Keddie Street.
The council also approved the terms of engagement with the city’s designated auditor, Silva, Sceirine & Associates LLC, to conduct the annual audit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, at a cost of $98,000.
The meeting concluded with council and staff reports. The next Fallon City Council meeting is scheduled for May 5 at 9 a.m.
