On Monday, Dwight Millard took over Ayres' position at the commissioners' meeting.

Millard, a member of the Carson City Convention & Visitors Bureau, said he wanted to be a commissioner because he believes the railway will help market the area.He said he's proud of helping push through a room tax increase that brought in $6 million for the commission.
Also, Millard has known the governor since the late '80s and, while they're not close friends, they have a "longtime knowledge" of each other, he said.

When the meeting started, the other commissioners greeted Millard, owner of Millard Realty & Construction, and moved on with the agenda.

"Of course Dwight Millard is going to say he sits on the Convention and Visitors Bureau," Ayres said.
