Triplett announces candidacy for Lyon County Commission District 5

Yerington resident Micah Triplett has announced he will be running for the Lyon County Commission in District 5.

District 5 represents Mason Valley and Smith Valley, but commission seats are on the ballot countywide.

Triplett has served for nearly 18 years as a professional Firefighter/EMT/Hazardous Materials Technician across Northern Nevada, including the ranks of Captain, Engine Operator, and Firefighter-Medic, as well as volunteer and paid reserve firefighter positions.

He has also served as a board member on the Yerington Chamber of Commerce, including stints as vice president and president.

Triplett said his priorities include controlled and responsible growth, economic diversification anchored in agriculture and mining as foundational industries, and expanded youth recreation and opportunities.
