What Lander County does

Lander County (legal name: County of Lander, Nevada) is a public county government entity and political subdivision of the State of Nevada, established in 1863 with Austin as its original county seat and Battle Mountain as the current seat. Governed by an elected five-member Board of Commissioners, the county provides a full slate of statutory local government services for residents of Lander County, including emergency medical and fire services (Battle Mountain and Austin ambulance and volunteer fire departments), public safety (Sheriff's Office, two Justice Courts in Argenta and Austin), property assessment and quarterly tax collection (Treasurer's Office, Assessor), business licensing, building permits and inspections, planning and zoning, document recording and e-recording (Recorder's Office), elections and vital records (Clerk's Office), public works (roads, bridges, water, sewer, landfill, parks, golf course, rodeo grounds), senior services, and healthcare facilities (Battle Mountain General Hospital, Battle Mountain Clinic, Austin Clinic). Day-to-day administration is led by County Manager Bartolo "Bert" Ramos with support from Assistant County Manager Sean Bakker.

The county's digital infrastructure consists of a public-facing website (landercountynv.org) powered by the Revize government website solution, supporting multilingual access across more than 60 languages, E-Notify subscriptions, and an iworq Citizen Portal for business licensing. Online payment portals handle property tax, utility, landfill, ambulance, building, business license, juvenile, library, recreation, rental, gate, and room tax fees; building permits are searchable online, and Granicus is used for archived meeting agendas, minutes, and video recordings. The county does not sell commercial products or services. Revenue is generated through property taxes (collected on a quarterly schedule beginning August 17, 2026), business license and service fees, state and federal grants, and mining net proceeds, which the county identifies as a key driver of its relatively strong financial position.

Operating geographies are confined to Lander County, Nevada, with in-person service delivery concentrated at the main campus at 50 State Route 305 in Battle Mountain and satellite offices in Austin (Justice Court, Clinic, Volunteer Ambulance, Senior Center). The county maintains an active capital projects pipeline including the Battle Mountain Firehouse, Austin Community/Medical Center, an Events Center, Bike Trails, Safe Routes to School, and Mountain View Golf Course improvements. There is no external ownership, venture capital involvement, or commercial investor base; Lander County is a political subdivision accountable to its residents.
