A decision by the Nevada Public Utilities Commission could restore older, more favorable rates to about 32,000 customers who installed or applied for a rooftop solar system before this year. The Nevada PUC is scheduled to vote today on a settlement between NV Energy, SolarCity, the state Bureau of Consumer Protection and the commission's staff. Customers who signed up before a rate hike took effect this year would be "grandfathered" into lower rates for 20 years. Commissioners raised rates for rooftop solar customers this year, saying it corrected a subsidy that non-solar customers were paying for those who had panels.

A divided Reno City Council approved a settlement with City Manager Andrew Clinger, that will pay his attorney fees and six months of salary. But at least two members say it's premature, and if there is evidence of misconduct, the payoff could be avoided.
