russell: "we would have hoped that there was a little better protection for local workers when this went through the legislature. what they ended up getting was 50 percent local workforce on the job. we don't think that's enough. it's not 50 percent nevada's tax money, it's 100 percent nevada's tax money." james says about 300 local workers walked off the tesla build site in protest today. senate bill one from the 2014 special session... requires that tesla hire half of its workers from nevada. but since tesla's tax credits these workers argue... the percentage should be higher. we reached out to tesla for a response... and a spokesperson sent us a statement saying in part quote: "in reality, more than 50% of the workers used by this contractor and more than 75% of the entire gigafactory workforce are nevada residents, demonstrating the project's strong commitment to nevada." end quote. the tesla spokesperson went on to say that-- tesla hires the best vendors and suppliers for the job, based on factors of

reliability and reputation. russell: "they are bringing some workers from new mexico, and there are local construction workers who are available to fill those jobs. they are just choosing to bring those workers from new mexico because they can pay them less." tesla expects to begin producing batteries at the gigafactory in 2017. covering the story live, arianna bennett, channel 2 news. imagine having your birthday once every four years... if you're born on february 29th-- that is exactly the case. if you're born on february 29th-- that is exactly the case. ky sisson tells us about a local "leapling." if you ask carter oliver what his favorite part of his birthday is... no it's not the spiderman theme or even the presents that stand as tall as he is . it's... carter- "february 29." ky- "that's your favorite part? it's the day?" he's a leap year baby-- also called a leapling. carter turns

his "second" birthday. but don't call him two.. carter- "i'm 4!" that's right. he is one of about two hundred and five thousand americans born on february 29. leap day is once every four years so the probability of having being born on a leap year is small-- chances are about one in fourteen hundred. most leaplings celebrate on february 28th which is what carter and his family did, but his mom, danielle oliver, has a little something extra planned for his special day. danielle- "we will be taking him surprise cupcakes and ballons to school where the other years we wouldn't normally do that."

beginning and they're the real experts and know what they can grow and what's the right timeme of year to grown and we'll just be the recipients" catholic charities knows, when struggling with a tight budget or homelessness, pricey fruits and vegetables are first to be eliminated. now hundreds of clients will get that nutrition every day at st vincent's dining room, the pantry...as well as those who receive meals on wheels,. scott "so the seniors in our community will be able to take advantage of the fresh produce that will be coming out of these green houses more specifically, these are called hoop houses, which are less costly to build,require no heating or cooling and, says farm supervisor ray saliga - the structure works with the environment ray "it's easy to move. so, the idea with that is we can provide shade in the summer time for our warm season crops and then plant our cooler season crops through the winter and move the house over the top of that" the new program expects to have their first harvest available this spring. covering the story,

last week, we told you how the homeless overflow shelter was forced to close because of vadalism. since then, the city of reno has working on leasing a new location. the new building isn't ready yet, so people have been spending the night at the tables inside the warming room at the volunteers of america shelter. sandy isham, development and community relations officer for volunteers of america: "we are literally just trying to make sure people are safe and warm and don't freeze to death, during our winter, cold nights." the city and the v-o-a both say it's crucial to get a new overflow shelter up and running, because it prevents people from being in the cold when the regular shelters fill up. the ideal space would be able to fit 120 beds for the homeless to sleep. the city is hoping to have the new overflow shelter open by the end of this week. today the knitting factory announced it has closed its venue in downtown reno and it will be reopening under a new name. the operators of the rockbar theatre- who ran a concert venue

many seniors take a number of prescription drugs daily... and managing them all can be a challenge. we spoke to health officials about how to protect february was a warm, dry month -- and the lack of precipitation has brought our snowpack levels down from where they were four weeks ago. that's when the snowpack was 25 percent above normal. now it's four percent below .. snow scraping the sierra only got about 30 percent of it's normal precipitation this year -- and experts say the lack of rain and snow is disappointing. february is traditionally one of our wettest months of the year. chad "it's definitely disappointing but it's not abnormal. even in some of the biggest years we've had, we've

middle with dry spells." despite the dry month -- there is still about 31 inches of water content in the snow. an average winter usually provides 37 inches of water -- so a few march storms could get us back to normal levels. jeff "even after a pretty dry month, we're still sitting at near normal conditions, which is way better than we've had the last four years." experts say an ideal runoff would begin in april -- with sustained snowmelt to keep the water from soaking into the ground. while it may take until the end

there are two games left in the wolf pack's regular season and next up boise state... i'm dallas colodny and hear from the

"now here's sports director garrett dearborn with channel 2 sports." sunday's overtime win on colorado state gave the wolf pack men a first round bye to the mountain west tournament and now they're looking to move up. but they may have to finish the regular season without leading marqueze coleman, who's still day to day with that ankle sprain. and next up it's a rematch with boise state in boise where, as

going to be a battle for the 3-spot in the conference standings.... back on january 13th the wolf pack came lost to boise state 74-67... but since then... the silver and blue has gone 8-3... and as they prepare for wednesdays rematch the guys say they are a much better team then they were a month and half ago. " we are significantly better and that is all due to hardwork from the coaching staff down and it is great and we see the results and that is the best part and that motivates us to work even harder." "since that loss we have grown we are probably at our peak but we are going to keep on going up. they say at the end of the season you want to be playing your best basketball and i feel like we are playing our best basketball right now. " so the game against the broncos will be the final road game of the regular season for the nevada wolf pack and quite literally the guys are taking to

a bus from here at the lawlor events center and driving 423 miles to the taco bell center in boise idaho. " i guess so we are bussing to boise since we seem to do so well on bus trips so we aren't even going to fly we are just going to get on the bus and roll with it." "having 10-12 hour bus rides, multiple, it gets tiring and you don't want to take that long of a bus ride after a loss so we make sure we win those games." "no matter how we get there we have the same goal if we bus, train or travel. our goal is to go there and win." so the winner of the nevada... boise state game will take control of third place in the mountain west.

mike is here with a final check of the weather while it may take until the end
