📰 News we're reading
1. Don't skip East William Street in Carson City during construction as businesses are still open (kolotv.com) — Drivers are urged not to avoid East William Street in Carson City, where a long-planned “Complete Streets” construction project is underway but every business still has at least one open entrance. The work, running from Carson Street to the I-580 interchange, brings major utility, roadway, and sidewalk upgrades, and local owners like Saltwater Tavern’s Troy Morgan are asking residents to keep supporting them through the disruption. 
2. Carson City arrests: Suspect jailed for alleged felony battery, victim hospitalized (carsonnow.org) — Carson City deputies arrested a 31-year-old woman on suspicion of felony domestic battery after a severely injured victim was hospitalized and later treated in Reno. The report also details a local DUI arrest on South Carson Street and two separate warrant bookings at Carson City Jail, all based on recent Carson City Sheriff’s Office reports.
3. Former Tesla CFO Deepak Ahuja joins EV battery recycler Redwood Materials (cnbc.com) — Carson City-based Redwood Materials has hired former Tesla CFO Deepak Ahuja to help steer its fast-growing battery recycling and energy storage business, now valued at over $6 billion. The company, which has raised billions in funding and federal support, is expanding into large-scale energy storage systems that reuse EV batteries, aiming to strengthen the grid and domestic supply of critical minerals.
4. Nevada lender among 10 booted from USDA loan program (8newsnow.com) — Carson City customers of Greater Nevada Credit Union are affected after the USDA barred the credit union from its Rural Development OneRD Guaranteed Lending Program due to high delinquency levels. The move hits one of only seven Nevada lenders in the program and could tighten access to federally backed rural loans across northern Nevada communities.
