» Good morning. Good morning. Let us pray.

69
00:04:18,479 --> 00:04:20,160
Gracious and loving God, we give you

70
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,479
thanks for bringing us together today.

71
00:04:22,479 --> 00:04:24,320

00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,280
to serve the people of this great city.

74
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:31,440
As they gather today, grant wisdom for

75
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,360
every decision, courage for every

76
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,759
difficult conversation, and compassion

77
00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:37,520
for every person whose life will be

78
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,919
touched by the work done here today.

79
00:04:39,919 --> 00:04:42,000
Help them to remember that behind every

80
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,240
agenda item, every policy, and every

81
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,040
vote are real people with real hopes,

82
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,680
real struggles, and real dreams.

83
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,520
Give these members ears that truly

84
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,360
listen, hearts that remain open, and

85
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,360
minds that seek understanding before

86
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,759
judgment. May they lead with integrity,

87
00:04:57,759 --> 00:04:59,680
humility, and a commitment to the common

88
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,479
good. May they use whatever influence

89
00:05:02,479 --> 00:05:04,800
they have to lift others up, to seek

90
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,479
justice, to protect the vulnerable, and

91
00:05:06,479 --> 00:05:09,120
to ensure that every person is treated

92
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,759
with dignity and respect. May the work

93
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:13,759
accomplished here today help build a Las

94
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:16,240
Vegas where people have the opportunity

95
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,360
not only to survive but to flourish. We

96
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,039
offer this prayer in the name of love

97
00:05:21,039 --> 00:05:23,120
and all that is holy and in the name of

98
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,840
Jesus Christ. Amen.

99
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:27,520
Please join me now in the pledge of

100
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,520
allegiance.

101
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,560

105
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:43,360
justice for all.

106
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,510

107
00:05:45,510 --> 00:05:45,520

00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:44,800

00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,440

00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,080
Candace is a a management analyst and

is always willing to provide support and

134
00:08:05,919 --> 00:08:08,639
assistance. Most recently, Candace

135
00:08:08,639 --> 00:08:11,120
helped our safe key committee members

136
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,360

137
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,759

00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,280
community partner UNLV when the school

142
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,280
was having challenges with getting their

00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,479
pract practicum students approved to

144
00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:34,479
begin providing mental health services

145
00:08:34,479 --> 00:08:36,959
at five elementary schools. Thanks to

00:08:36,959 --> 00:08:39,200
Candace's knowledge, understanding, and

147
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,919
contacts at the school district, she was

148
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:44,000
able to ensure that all the agencies

149
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,399
involved were working together. Candace

150
00:08:46,399 --> 00:08:48,160

151
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,560

00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:52,720
Candace, thank you for everything you

153
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,486

154
00:08:54,486 --> 00:08:59,680
[applause]

155
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:02,240
You are an incredible representative of

156
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,279
the city. And now I'd uh like to invite

157
00:09:05,279 --> 00:09:08,240
Tammy up uh and have a chance to say a

158
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,480
few words. Then we'll hear from Candace

159
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,959
and then we'll take a couple of photos.

160
00:09:12,959 --> 00:09:14,800
Dr. Malich, there you are.

161
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,269
>> Yes. Thank you, Mayor.

162
00:09:17,269 --> 00:09:17,279
» Yes. Thank you, Mayor.

163
00:09:17,279 --> 00:09:20,240
So Candace, as the mayor said, is the

164
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,200
definition of team player. Candace

165
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,600
always steps up to help no matter which

166
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,680
department in the city, no matter which

167
00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:30,080
partner outside of the city or which

168
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,959
team member within YDSI. When I arrived

169
00:09:32,959 --> 00:09:34,880
at the city, Candace supported our

170
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,839
reinvent schools Las Vegas program and

171
00:09:37,839 --> 00:09:40,800
supported all of that work. and she was

172
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,000
an Americanore supervisor and her I I

173
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,959
was taken aback by her ability to

174
00:09:46,959 --> 00:09:49,680
mentor, coach and guide our young

175
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:52,000
Americanore members. She poured into

176
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,080
them and invested in them and many of

177
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,800
them have gone on to full-time careers

178
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,839
in the city and outside of the city. She

179
00:09:59,839 --> 00:10:02,240
built our strong future technology

180
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,200
training center. She literally built the

181
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,360
computers within the facility that

182
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,680
allows us to do I think most of our

183
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:11,519
council members have seen the work that

184
00:10:11,519 --> 00:10:13,519
goes on and every council member has

185
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:15,920
constituents that attend. Um and then

186
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,920
she helped parks and recreation and

187
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,000
cultural affairs build their pecker tech

188
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,640
park because she's that person. We

189
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,760
quickly were able to promote Candace and

190
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,519
now she leads our Americanore and

191
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:29,839
Americanore Vista programs. She has

192
00:10:29,839 --> 00:10:32,399
exceeded standards in every area for

193
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:34,320
Americanore and through Nevada

194
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,279
volunteers. She has exceeded all of our

195
00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:40,240
metrics. She has fully recruited and

196
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,720
she's done it with clean audits every

197
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,399
single time. And if you don't know about

198
00:10:44,399 --> 00:10:47,440
federal money, um it's not easy to get

199
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,640
clean audits. Um, and so Candace and

200
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,079
then as the mayor mentioned, she

201
00:10:52,079 --> 00:10:55,200
supported UNLV with our exhale program,

202
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,279
getting our undergrad mental health

203
00:10:57,279 --> 00:11:01,200
students into CCSDs. Um, I think you see

204
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,920
multiple members from departments here

205
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,600
because that's who Candace is. Our

206
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,240
friends from Metro in the back because

207
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,440
she supports their programs. So Candace

208
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,160
is just such a great human being. I'm

209
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,399
honored and privileged to work with her

210
00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:19,279
and shout out to Candace's family and

211
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:21,120
extended family for being here to

212
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,600
support her. Candace,

213
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,782
>> thank you.

214
00:11:25,782 --> 00:11:25,792
» thank you.

215
00:11:25,792 --> 00:11:29,190
[applause]

216
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,560
I just wrote a few things.

217
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:36,800
I tested it on somebody yesterday. Oh, I

218
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,880
tested it on somebody yesterday and it

219
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,513
made her cry. So, I think I did okay.

220
00:11:41,513 --> 00:11:42,720
[laughter]

221
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,640
Uh, first off, thank you so much, mayor,

222
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,720
and our city council for your

223
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,560
recognition and to the employee

224
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:51,040
recognition recognition committee. Um, I

225
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,320
know that there are a lot of names out

226
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,880
there and I appreciate you picking me.

227
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,800
Thank you very much to my family who's

228
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,880
all here. Um, sorry my dad couldn't make

229
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,839
it, but he'll watch this later. And

230
00:12:01,839 --> 00:12:05,120
someone laughs. Um, and to our YDSI

231
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,959
family, Dr. Malich, we have such an

232
00:12:06,959 --> 00:12:09,279
awesome team, don't we? So, right over

233
00:12:09,279 --> 00:12:11,643
here to our YDSI family. Thank you.

234
00:12:11,643 --> 00:12:15,190
[applause]

235
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,440
I'm so grateful to be recognized as the

236
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,120
city's employee of the month. I've been

237
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,639
with the city almost 10 years and

238
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:22,480
without a doubt this has been the

239
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,320
hardest year but also the most

240
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,399
rewarding. For those of you who don't

241
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:28,399
know I serve as the Americanore program

242
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:29,920
director out of the department of youth

243
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,880
development and social initiatives. Just

244
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,000
over that's Charles. [laughter]

245
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,240
Just over a year ago, our Americanore

246
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,800
program was abruptly terminated. With a

247
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,079
single 8 a.m. email, more than 40 of our

248
00:12:44,079 --> 00:12:46,720
service members lost their positions and

249
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,560
our community lost services we promised

250
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:51,040
to provide. This was undeniably the

251
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,440
hardest day I've ever experienced during

252
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,680
my time with the city.

253
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:58,000
But that experience changed me. I grew.

254
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,839
It challenged me to become smarter, to

255
00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:01,760
work harder, and be relentless in

256
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,680
finding solutions.

257
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,360
What never changed was why I do this

258
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,519
work. I continued to care deeply about

259
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:09,120
our members and the community that we

260
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,959
serve, and I fought for every one of

261
00:13:10,959 --> 00:13:13,360
them. Because of that effort and a whole

262
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,200
lot of teamwork, we were able to

263
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,279
reinstate our program, and every member

264
00:13:17,279 --> 00:13:19,279
ultimately got what they deserved and

265
00:13:19,279 --> 00:13:22,374
earned.

266
00:13:22,384 --> 00:13:24,079
[applause] We can absolutely clap for

267
00:13:24,079 --> 00:13:25,839
that.

268
00:13:25,839 --> 00:13:27,760
Receiving this recognition is incredibly

269
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,519
meaningful to me because it reminds me

270
00:13:29,519 --> 00:13:31,680
that perseverance matters, that service

271
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:33,200
matters, and that leading with

272
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,600
compassion matters. It affirms that I'm

273
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,680
walking in my purpose. And it reminds me

274
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:39,680
that even during the hardest time work

275
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:42,240
hardest times, the work is worth it.

276
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,160
Thank you to my leadership, my

277
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,240
teammates, and everyone who believes in

278
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,920
our program and supported us through one

279
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,920
of our toughest moments.

280
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,240
This recognition may have my name on it,

281
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,079
but it reflects the resilience,

282
00:13:54,079 --> 00:13:57,040
teamwork, and heart of so many people.

283
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,639
I'm honored to accept it, and I'm

284
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:00,240
excited to keep serving the city of Las

285
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,304
Vegas alongside all of you. Thank you.

286
00:14:04,304 --> 00:14:09,829
[applause and cheering]

287
00:14:09,839 --> 00:16:22,310
» We'll take some pictures.

288
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,480
For our final item, I have the pleasure

289
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,680
of recognizing a true superstar in our

290
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,120

00:35:55,119 --> 00:35:57,200
Mayor Prom, may I have a motion for the

552
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,079
consent agenda for items 10 through 25?

553
00:36:00,079 --> 00:36:02,230
>> Seeing that there are no agenda items to

554
00:36:02,230 --> 00:36:02,240
» Seeing that there are no agenda items to

555
00:36:02,240 --> 00:36:04,720
be pulled, then I I move to approve

556
00:36:04,720 --> 00:36:07,599
agenda items 10 through 25.

557
00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:09,750
>> Please vote.

558
00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:09,760
» Please vote.

559
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,720
Post.

560
00:36:12,720 --> 00:36:16,390
Motion carries.

561
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,400

in the past year and an overview of

their new strategic plan. This impacts

571
00:36:43,599 --> 00:36:46,480
all of our wards. Um, good morning

welcome.

582
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:08,230
>> Um, welcome. A little bit of background.

583
00:37:08,230 --> 00:37:08,240
» Um, welcome. A little bit of background.

584
00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:11,040
Uh we have partnered with LVGA since

585
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,040
2012 when the organization was

586
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,280
established. And I must say that the

587
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,839
partnership has been really um fruitful

588
00:37:17,839 --> 00:37:19,680
in many different ways. But in the last

589
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,000
year, it really has become uh I want to

590
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,000
say even stronger with uh Danielle's

591
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,839
arrival. There's been a lot more

592
00:37:25,839 --> 00:37:27,920
engagement. Uh you know, we've we've

593
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,880
done uh conferences together, fam tours,

594
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,720
uh participated in engagements for their

595
00:37:32,720 --> 00:37:34,400
new strategic plan. So, I'm really

596
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,119
excited uh to see uh this partnership

597
00:37:37,119 --> 00:37:40,000
grow even stronger. And uh with that, um

598
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,079
I'm going to let Danielle uh provide a

599
00:37:42,079 --> 00:37:43,920
report on the activities. Uh they

600
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,480
elected, LGA elected to exercise the

601
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,119
first renewal option in our five-year,

602
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:51,359
and we couldn't be more grateful.

603
00:37:51,359 --> 00:37:53,910
>> Thank you. Thank you, Miss Batig. uh

604
00:37:53,910 --> 00:37:53,920
» Thank you. Thank you, Miss Batig. uh

605
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,640
mayor uh mayor prom council members I

606
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,160
can't tell you how honored and grateful

607
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,839
I am to be here and and if they do want

608
00:37:59,839 --> 00:38:02,160
to sit uh I'll give them the the break

609
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,960
but hopefully you see that us having

610
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,040
board members present this is a

611
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,520
conversation we've had within LVGA uh

612
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,960
I've invited all of them we're giving

613
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,079
presentations with all of our

614
00:38:12,079 --> 00:38:14,960
municipalities to simply underscore the

615
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,280
absolute importance the entire board

616
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,200
feels that all of our municipal partners

617
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,880
have and their commitment to our

618
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,240
strategic plan and the work that we're

619
00:38:22,240 --> 00:38:23,680
doing so I I want to thank them very

620
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,440
much for carving out their time. So,

621
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:26,720
we're going to go through a

622
00:38:26,720 --> 00:38:28,079
presentation. I'll work to be very

623
00:38:28,079 --> 00:38:29,520
respectful of your time this morning,

624
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:30,960
but I also look forward to any

625
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,359
questions. It is uh I I've been

626
00:38:33,359 --> 00:38:35,760
reflecting. It's been very exciting

627
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,680
about this time last year. I was packing

628
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,680
my house in my previous location to get

629
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,920
relocated out here and it's been a wild

630
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,520
ride. I officially started the role at

631
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,160
the end of August and my uh my economic

632
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,960
development career was largely in local

633
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,960
municipal economic development. So I

634
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,240
have a lot of fondness and love and it's

635
00:38:52,240 --> 00:38:53,920
fun being back in front of a deas every

636
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:55,599
once in a while. Not all the time but

637
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:57,680
every once in a while [laughter]

638
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,280
for for anyone this is really for the

639
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,280
good of the community at large that may

640
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,960
for any reason not be aware of LVGA. We

641
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,000
are a 501c6. Today we have 51 active

642
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,160
board members and we were established

643
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,760
back in 2012 uh in our current form but

644
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,040
we go all the way back to 1956 um as

645
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,200
SNIF the Southern Nevada Industrial

646
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,640
Foundation. I keep joking that I'm going

647
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,240
to get throwback t-shirts because I just

648
00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:24,240
think it's really funny and enjoyable.

649
00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:25,440
But we'll talk a little bit about our

650
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,520
future branding as we go along. And I

651
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,680
always like to recognize and let the

652
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,599
community members watching get a sense

653
00:39:31,599 --> 00:39:33,599
of who our board of directors are, who

654
00:39:33,599 --> 00:39:35,920
is driving this organization and leading

655
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,839
it for the good of the regional

656
00:39:37,839 --> 00:39:39,920
community. So just a little shout out to

657
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,240
our many wonderful board members and we

658
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:44,240
also have additional partners of course

659
00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:46,960
above and beyond that. So when you look

660
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,800
at LVGA and the services that we

661
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,480
provide, I think it's very important and

662
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,240
these are some deep conversations I've

663
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:54,079
had with the board since arrival and

664
00:39:54,079 --> 00:39:55,920
they've they've definitely taken this to

665
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,200
heart. They've certainly been aware of

666
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,839
it, but a reminder is always important.

667
00:39:59,839 --> 00:40:01,680
A large part of our funding is also from

668
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:02,960
the governor's office of economic

669
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,119
development through GOED. Uh a little

670
00:40:05,119 --> 00:40:07,839
bit under 40% of our services and we do

671
00:40:07,839 --> 00:40:09,680
have requirements to the public good

672
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,839
through that agreement and contract. And

673
00:40:11,839 --> 00:40:13,680
these are just some very high level

674
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,000
highlights on what we deliver as part of

675
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,320
that GOED service agreement. Um regional

676
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,240
alignment and open communication with

677
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:21,680
GOED itself. So some of the things

678
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,440
you'll see on these slides. Um I'm

679
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,040
actually very excited to share that

680
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,280
Emily Q on the economic development team

681
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,280
here is one of our founding board

682
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,720
members of the Nevada Economic

683
00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:33,119
Developers Association. I was able to

684
00:40:33,119 --> 00:40:35,440
loop her in as a as a highly qualified

685
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:36,800
certified economic developer and

686
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,079
somebody who apparently doesn't know how

687
00:40:38,079 --> 00:40:40,480
to say no to volunteer activities. So,

688
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,160
she's helping us create a statewide

689
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,160
association to train economic developers

690
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,520
better, but that's also in partnership

691
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,280
with GOED. Tom Burns sits on that as

692
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,680
well. Um, it is also part of that

693
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,280
agreement that we support key federal

694
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,839
and state initiatives that we work on

695
00:40:53,839 --> 00:40:55,680
site selection and broker engagement.

696
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,440
Essentially, we respond to and manage

697
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,040
all the requests for information that

698
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,839
come through to the southern Nevada

699
00:41:01,839 --> 00:41:04,160
region, aka Clark County, as well as the

700
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:05,839
city of Las Vegas. And then also

701
00:41:05,839 --> 00:41:07,440
inventory and asset mapping. were

702
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,119
required through GOED to maintain

703
00:41:09,119 --> 00:41:11,280
databases of information that we have

704
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,040
for development zones and infrastructure

705
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,960
projects. But um some of the things that

706
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:16,160
you see in these little colored

707
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,920
highlights are above and beyond and

708
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,760
added value that we've done in the last

709
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,280
year that I'll talk more about in a

710
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,839
second. And of course representing at

711
00:41:23,839 --> 00:41:26,560
the board meeting for GOED and reporting

712
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,400
and managing information on a quarterly

713
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,880
basis to be accountable to the state.

714
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,640
But what do our municipal partners get

715
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,160
above and beyond that? Why is the city

716
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,000
of Las Vegas engaged with us and why

717
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,920
have you been for so long? Well, we

718
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,240
provide additional support in our local

719
00:41:40,240 --> 00:41:42,319
community above and beyond what GOED

720
00:41:42,319 --> 00:41:43,839
requires us to do for that level of

721
00:41:43,839 --> 00:41:46,800
public good. So, we also offer and and

722
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,040
this is also tied with our agreement

723
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,359
with the city of Las Vegas, economic

724
00:41:51,359 --> 00:41:53,280
developers direct engagement and

725
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:54,640
support. So, one of the things I'm

726
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:56,079
really proud of, we've always engaged

727
00:41:56,079 --> 00:41:58,000
with our local economic developers. I

728
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,079
think Dena can attest to over the past

729
00:42:00,079 --> 00:42:02,319
year, we have had a monthly gathering

730
00:42:02,319 --> 00:42:04,160
and we've invited all members of the

731
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:05,920
economic development staffs for all

732
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,680
communities in the region as well as our

733
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,760
utilities and GOED to have a monthly

734
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,480
meeting and discuss deal flow activity

735
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,880
priorities at LVGA, how we're spending

736
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,040
our time and what our outcomes are. Um,

737
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,200
we've also started a new quarterly

738
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,040
report of the organization. I have a

739
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,880
hyperlink at the very end for everybody,

740
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,119
anyone that wants to read that. But we

741
00:42:25,119 --> 00:42:27,200
also are providing a new monthly deal

742
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:28,720
pipeline report which is a new

743
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:30,079
publication and a new level of

744
00:42:30,079 --> 00:42:32,880
accountability. We've hosted two site

745
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,720
selector tours in the last year. This is

746
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:36,240
something that's not required by GOED

747
00:42:36,240 --> 00:42:38,480
but really critical to change perception

748
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,880
of decision makers about our community.

749
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:42,640
11 consultants in the last year and you

750
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,000
I have three requirements but now I was

751
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:45,359
sitting there thinking about I think we

752
00:42:45,359 --> 00:42:46,800
have probably four or five that we've

753
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,280
received just from their experiences in

754
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:50,640
our community and then sending us

755
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,200
opportunities to respond to and I'm very

756
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,680
excited. We are going to be the we are

757
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,280
the location of choice for the site

758
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,599
selectors guild spring conference next

759
00:42:59,599 --> 00:43:01,359
spring. They've never been willing to

760
00:43:01,359 --> 00:43:03,920
come out here. Um they are going to be

761
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:05,839
coming out and in our region. So you're

762
00:43:05,839 --> 00:43:07,440
going to have about 40 to 50 of the top

763
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,680
site selection consultants all at once

764
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,440
chased by a couple hundred economic

765
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,119
developers and we get to show off to all

766
00:43:13,119 --> 00:43:14,560
of those folks. So that's pretty

767
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,720
exciting. Our engagement with regional

768
00:43:16,720 --> 00:43:18,560
business leadership. We've just launched

769
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,200
a new growth council of LVGA that's

770
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,960
going to engage everyone in the built

771
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,119
environment space. So, a lot more about

772
00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:27,280
that if you're interested to learn. And

773
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:28,800
also, of course, the city does

774
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,800
participate with two seats on our board

775
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,119
of directors. And uh one of the things

776
00:43:33,119 --> 00:43:34,319
that we've been spending a lot of time

777
00:43:34,319 --> 00:43:36,160
on this year, I have more details at the

778
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:37,760
end, coordinating the regional

779
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,280
comprehensive economic development

780
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,000
strategy process. And this is different

781
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,560
and fully unique from LVGA's own

782
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,960
strategic plan. And we've also been um

783
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,839
adding on a lot more tools and resources

784
00:43:49,839 --> 00:43:52,079
and data and research in the community.

785
00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:54,480
So um all kinds of things that the team

786
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,400
here at the city of Las Vegas has access

787
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,560
to through our organization. So these

788
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,560
are some of those ROI numbers. U you

789
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,319
know these these come out of our

790
00:44:02,319 --> 00:44:04,400
regional project assessment system and

791
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,560
in plan data. Essentially, you plug it

792
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,160
into a database and you look at what a

793
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:09,680
company is bringing to the market and

794
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,880
helps you estimate and and calculate

795
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,280
likely the direct induced and indirect

796
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,440
benefit to a community of that company's

797
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,200
presence in the market. It's also the

798
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,640
same tool that's used at the state level

799
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,800
for accountability for investment. So,

800
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,800
this is a little bit of a sampling of

801
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,359
regional announcements that LVGA has

802
00:44:27,359 --> 00:44:29,280
worked on over the past year. those

803
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:30,960
specific to the city of Las Vegas that

804
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:32,560
we've supported. And what does that mean

805
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,079
for the city of Las Vegas in terms of

806
00:44:34,079 --> 00:44:36,800
your investment in our organization? So

807
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,520
using these models, um that means new

808
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,200
economic activity about $482 in return

809
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:44,640
overall for every dollar that was

810
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,960
invested in LBGA. So we're really proud

811
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:48,800
of that. Happy to unpack those numbers

812
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,480
offline with you all to walk through

813
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,720
what that means at at any time you'd

814
00:44:52,720 --> 00:44:54,319
like. And this is a little bit about the

815
00:44:54,319 --> 00:44:56,960
pipeline we have going on today. active

816
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,119
active activity right now and some of

817
00:44:59,119 --> 00:45:00,800
the value that you've seen for that

818
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,640
investment. This is the deal activity.

819
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,520
The CYD is is um calendar year-to- date

820
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,000
and then fiscal year to date. LVGA runs

821
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:09,680
under January through December, which

822
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,760
drives me absolutely baddy because it's

823
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,359
always confusing trying to align with

824
00:45:13,359 --> 00:45:15,839
our municipal partners. But this shows

825
00:45:15,839 --> 00:45:17,359
you some of the trends and the potential

826
00:45:17,359 --> 00:45:19,440
jobs and investment that we are seeing

827
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,119
in the pipeline of activity that we're

828
00:45:21,119 --> 00:45:22,800
managing every day. And for those out

829
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,160
there in the community like what is a

830
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:25,839
pipeline of activity? Are you pumping

831
00:45:25,839 --> 00:45:27,040
something through the community? Is it

832
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,280
water? We love water. Um, it's not. It

833
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,680
means business opportunities that are

834
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,599
looking at the community for possible

835
00:45:33,599 --> 00:45:35,440
location, relocation into the community,

836
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,839
and expansion. There's also a lot of

837
00:45:37,839 --> 00:45:39,440
workforce development programs that have

838
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,440
been facilitated through our embedded

839
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,520
partner with Workforce Connections. And

840
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,119
then general activities. I think some of

841
00:45:45,119 --> 00:45:47,359
the things I like to show also um just

842
00:45:47,359 --> 00:45:49,599
the cost of those familiarization tours

843
00:45:49,599 --> 00:45:51,760
that costs about $60,000 annually, if

844
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:53,520
not more, to host those. Those are

845
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,599
pretty pricey but really impactful. Um

846
00:45:55,599 --> 00:45:57,119
the new data tools that we've launched

847
00:45:57,119 --> 00:45:59,520
that the team has access to $30,000

848
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,359
annual investment. So we're looking at

849
00:46:01,359 --> 00:46:02,960
economies of scale for our communities

850
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:04,640
and partners in the region. That's the

851
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,560
goal. And then of course attending trade

852
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,160
shows and I like to say that the

853
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:09,839
convenings of the economic developers

854
00:46:09,839 --> 00:46:11,680
advisory council for deal communications

855
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,319
is priceless, right? Um and this is a

856
00:46:14,319 --> 00:46:16,240
snapshot just of the regional deal

857
00:46:16,240 --> 00:46:18,160
overview publication that we now have

858
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,400
out there for everybody to see. and you

859
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,000
have a copy in your packets, mayor and

860
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,000
counsel. So, what I really want to talk

861
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:25,520
about for the bulk of the the for the

862
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,440
balance of my time is our strategic

863
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,440
plan. When I was interviewed for the

864
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,599
role, I I I've told the story a lot in

865
00:46:31,599 --> 00:46:32,880
the community. When I was interviewed

866
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,480
for the role and so excited to come

867
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,079
here, by the way, my my family's been

868
00:46:36,079 --> 00:46:37,119
coming out here forever. I was just

869
00:46:37,119 --> 00:46:39,040
sharing with Molly that u my mother's

870
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,119
buying a house. So, yay. I know. I have

871
00:46:41,119 --> 00:46:43,200
a free dog sitter. So, any dog sitters

872
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,359
out there, no no employment with me

873
00:46:45,359 --> 00:46:47,760
anymore. Um but we're uh we're we're

874
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,280
really thrilled about this. And when I

875
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:50,400
started and was interviewing for the

876
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:51,920
job, it was very clear that all the

877
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,599
right people are in the room. Everyone

878
00:46:53,599 --> 00:46:55,680
cares about diversifying our economy and

879
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,760
working together, but we really needed a

880
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,760
northstar and a guiding path for our

881
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,000
board to understand what LVGA needed to

882
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,920
execute in the community. So, we

883
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,160
embarked upon that very soon after I got

884
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,520
here uh late November last year and we

885
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,160
approved it at the board level in early

886
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:13,920
June, June 4 this year. And so, now

887
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,040
we're already launching into

888
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,200
implementation and this is a three-year

889
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:18,880
strategic plan. Everything in here will

890
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,560
not be done, but it will be launched and

891
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,839
it and there will be measurable

892
00:47:21,839 --> 00:47:23,680
outcomes. And the whole goal is to

893
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,599
create a more diversified economy by

894
00:47:25,599 --> 00:47:27,920
increasing higher wage traded sector

895
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,839
industries in the community. We have

896
00:47:29,839 --> 00:47:31,119
updated our mission and vision

897
00:47:31,119 --> 00:47:32,720
statement. You see those on the slide in

898
00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:34,640
front of you. And uh and there's a lot

899
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,319
of a lot of things. And by the way, this

900
00:47:36,319 --> 00:47:38,720
is a a two-side piece of information in

901
00:47:38,720 --> 00:47:42,079
a 32page public document that you all

902
00:47:42,079 --> 00:47:44,400
can look at at your leisure as the and

903
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,000
the community can as well. But it

904
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,760
matters because we know our economy

905
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,440
remains heavily concentrated in leisure

906
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,079
and hospitality which I vastly enjoy and

907
00:47:52,079 --> 00:47:53,680
love and celebrate. By the way, we have

908
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:57,680
no intent to to not to not be focused on

909
00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,359
what has made us great. We want to be

910
00:47:59,359 --> 00:48:00,880
greater and we want to continue to

911
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,040
diversify. So this creates a shared

912
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:04,880
roadmap for those diversified, higher

913
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,560
wage and long-term resilience jobs.

914
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,400
This is a lot of information on one

915
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:11,839
slide. I believe uh mayor and council

916
00:48:11,839 --> 00:48:13,680
you have a copy of the the little card

917
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:17,599
in your packet. Um, but I overall if you

918
00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:19,119
really sum it up when you look at a

919
00:48:19,119 --> 00:48:21,040
Hackman index, a Hackman index is a

920
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,839
measure of the level of diversification

921
00:48:23,839 --> 00:48:26,559
in your community. A one or 100% means

922
00:48:26,559 --> 00:48:28,559
you have you're very diversified in your

923
00:48:28,559 --> 00:48:30,319
community and market. We're at about a

924
00:48:30,319 --> 00:48:33,200
74 right now. Hey, it's a C. You know,

925
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,280
that's good. Uh but that also means that

926
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,720
that 26% of our entire economic makeup

927
00:48:38,720 --> 00:48:40,640
is highly concentrated which we know

928
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:41,920
even if you were in a rust belt

929
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:43,440
community heavily concentrated in the

930
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,520
auto sector anything can be very

931
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,880
challenging to get us just to a 76 or 77

932
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,200
that's going to require up to about

933
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,920
34,000 direct indirect and induced

934
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,000
additional jobs in the market. So this

935
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,079
is important to show everyone that

936
00:48:58,079 --> 00:49:00,480
moving that needle takes a lot. We're

937
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:02,319
not looking at reducing tourism jobs. We

938
00:49:02,319 --> 00:49:03,760
want to be additive to the environment

939
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,079
in the community. The way we make an

940
00:49:06,079 --> 00:49:08,480
impact is by focusing our work on those

941
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:12,000
jobs in diverse sectors that create

942
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,400
higher wages and that are called out on

943
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,000
this slide in these diverse industries.

944
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:17,280
So, these are the ones we're going to be

945
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,200
putting our outward energy and influence

946
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,240
on to try to bring into the market. Um,

947
00:49:22,240 --> 00:49:23,760
everything you see in our goals and key

948
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,839
tactics, every bullet point there has a

949
00:49:25,839 --> 00:49:28,559
full breakout of the why and the steps

950
00:49:28,559 --> 00:49:30,079
we are going to take to execute on

951
00:49:30,079 --> 00:49:31,680
those. and we're thrilled to do this in

952
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,000
partnership with all the communities.

953
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,640
Just a remember a reminder about the why

954
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,559
which I've just already touched on um

955
00:49:38,559 --> 00:49:40,640
for LVGA. This has been a really

956
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,000
critical ethical exercise in

957
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,400
understanding our role in meaningfully

958
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,640
changing this trajectory. And I think

959
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,400
one example right here was from a site

960
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,480
selector that we talked to just just

961
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,079
probably about a month ago now where

962
00:49:52,079 --> 00:49:53,599
they said, "You still don't have sites

963
00:49:53,599 --> 00:49:55,280
for me to put the employment that I want

964
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:56,960
to put in your community." So, we have

965
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:58,720
to remember um a lot of the work that

966
00:49:58,720 --> 00:50:00,000
we're doing in this strategy. While we

967
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,520
can call on companies and go to trade

968
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,440
shows and bring site selectors out, if

969
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,599
we can't deliver a competitive value

970
00:50:05,599 --> 00:50:07,920
proposition for them, then we're not

971
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,119
going to locate them in the community.

972
00:50:09,119 --> 00:50:11,040
And that can mean workforce related

973
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,559
issues. It can mean infrastructure

974
00:50:12,559 --> 00:50:14,480
related issues and it can mean, you

975
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:15,839
know, time and speed to market. It can

976
00:50:15,839 --> 00:50:17,200
mean many things. And so, we're going to

977
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,000
be working on all of that in tandem. And

978
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,559
this is just a little more uh color for

979
00:50:22,559 --> 00:50:24,400
you on our primary measurement indicator

980
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,160
on that Hackman index. I think what

981
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,079
you'll see here that's interesting is

982
00:50:28,079 --> 00:50:29,760
when you look at our number in terms of

983
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,000
diversification, you look at in Orlando

984
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:33,680
and Nashville of Phoenix, they are

985
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:35,280
actually more diversified than we are.

986
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:36,480
So those are it's great to have

987
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,640
aspirational benchmarks and maybe look

988
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:39,839
at what they're doing well and what

989
00:50:39,839 --> 00:50:42,160
they're not doing well.

990
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:43,839
This is way too much information to dig

991
00:50:43,839 --> 00:50:45,359
into, but I I wanted to share with you

992
00:50:45,359 --> 00:50:47,280
all that our board is serious. Board

993
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:48,960
Chair Purdue uh when we brought the

994
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,160
strategic plan forward, she said,

995
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:51,760
"Great, and I want the board to see what

996
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:52,960
you're going to do in the next six

997
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:54,400
months, and we're going to lay it out.

998
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:55,680
We want to know what's happening right

999
00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,400
away. So do know that my board and

1000
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,400
leadership has asked me and the team to

1001
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:01,920
be highly accountable and they are also

1002
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,599
clearly being accountable themselves for

1003
00:51:03,599 --> 00:51:05,839
the organization.

1004
00:51:05,839 --> 00:51:07,359
I mentioned the comprehensive economic

1005
00:51:07,359 --> 00:51:09,040
development strategy very important for

1006
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:10,960
the region for anybody in the community

1007
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,960
unaware. This is actually a required

1008
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,640
strategy by the economic development

1009
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:16,319
administration for the pursuit of

1010
00:51:16,319 --> 00:51:18,480
additional funding and grants at a

1011
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,520
federal level in through the EDA. So we

1012
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,119
uh even before I got here, I can't take

1013
00:51:23,119 --> 00:51:26,319
credit. LVGEA applied for the SDS grant

1014
00:51:26,319 --> 00:51:28,720
and and became the fiduciary. So we are

1015
00:51:28,720 --> 00:51:31,119
actually putting about $80,000 cash plus

1016
00:51:31,119 --> 00:51:33,200
a significant amount of staff in kind

1017
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,920
from LG LVGA to make this happen to

1018
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,800
match the 150,000 from the EDA. But this

1019
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,119
serves every community in our region for

1020
00:51:41,119 --> 00:51:43,599
the pursuit of future funding. So we are

1021
00:51:43,599 --> 00:51:45,280
hard and fast at work on that. In fact,

1022
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,119
there's a a steering committee meeting

1023
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:49,200
going on as I speak this morning while

1024
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,200
I'm here with you all today. And one of

1025
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:52,559
the things I did want to celebrate

1026
00:51:52,559 --> 00:51:54,480
because we just got out of it and uh

1027
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,160
their team was just so incredible. Your

1028
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,880
economic development team was definitely

1029
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,640
um front and center on this. We just

1030
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,079
came back from the bio international

1031
00:52:02,079 --> 00:52:04,240
convention in June to spread the word

1032
00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:06,160
and create brand. I got to tell you that

1033
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,400
sign is a lot bigger in person even than

1034
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,480
it looks in the videos. Uh it was really

1035
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:12,480
great. Uh Dena's team was was very

1036
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:13,680
intentional of wanting to have a

1037
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,520
fabulous Las Vegas sign. Drew tons of

1038
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:17,440
traffic and we are starting to build a

1039
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,400
brand and um and recognition about us

1040
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:23,760
working to become a future biosciences

1041
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,960
center of excellence in the community.

1042
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,720
And with that to wrap us up, just wanted

1043
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:29,839
to share these are in your slides.

1044
00:52:29,839 --> 00:52:31,359
Anybody that wants to see our quarterly

1045
00:52:31,359 --> 00:52:33,680
report or our annual report is welcome

1046
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,000
to do so publicly on our website. I'm

1047
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:37,520
sure I've already gone too long, but I'm

1048
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,520
very grateful for your time. Happy to

1049
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:40,960
take any questions or move out of your

1050
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,640
way so you can have a

1051
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,870
>> Thank you Danielle for that wonderful

1052
00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:44,880
» Thank you Danielle for that wonderful

1053
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,040
presentation. We appreciate it. Are

1054
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,200
there any questions or comments from

1055
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,839
Yes, Miss Summers Armstrong?

1056
00:52:51,839 --> 00:52:53,670
>> Thank you so much for this presentation.

1057
00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:53,680
» Thank you so much for this presentation.

1058
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,720
Uh this is super super good information.

1059
00:52:56,720 --> 00:52:59,440
I don't think I've seen this kind of

1060
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,640
detail from uh because economic

1061
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,599
development is not exactly sexy. So, uh,

1062
00:53:05,599 --> 00:53:07,520
it's wonderful to see you make it look

1063
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,280
pretty and understandable in these

1064
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,160
bite-sizes. For those of us who

1065
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,079
represent, um, I'll speak for myself as

1066
00:53:14,079 --> 00:53:16,720
a person who represents an urban core

1067
00:53:16,720 --> 00:53:19,599
community. Um, it's really important

1068
00:53:19,599 --> 00:53:22,240
that this information be dissected a

1069
00:53:22,240 --> 00:53:25,040
little bit more. Um, I think we're often

1070
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:28,559
overlooked um, in in the urban core um,

1071
00:53:28,559 --> 00:53:31,200
for opportunity and potential. I don't

1072
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:32,640
know if you know, but we have the

1073
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,480
Westside Education and Training Center

1074
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,480
available, which is which is a

1075
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,559
partnership with the city and city and

1076
00:53:38,559 --> 00:53:41,520
CSN, and we have the ability to train

1077
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,640
people for these great jobs. And so, we

1078
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,160
would love to have that kind I would

1079
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:47,760
love to have that kind of personal

1080
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,160
discussion with you about that. Um,

1081
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,480
Historic West Las Vegas, which we were

1082
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,079
talking about earlier and development

1083
00:53:54,079 --> 00:53:56,880
with the um faith-based leaders, has

1084
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:58,800
some of the lowest incomes in the

1085
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,520
valley. And so the only way to improve

1086
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:05,040
that is training people to do these

1087
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,680
kinds of jobs that are going to uh

1088
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,599
ensure that they can lift themselves up,

1089
00:54:09,599 --> 00:54:11,760
right? Um, and so that's the kind of

1090
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:13,520
data I would like you to sort of break

1091
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:17,839
down to see currently how uh these zip

1092
00:54:17,839 --> 00:54:20,880
codes that are in in my district are are

1093
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,839
benefiting or not from the work that you

1094
00:54:23,839 --> 00:54:25,599
are doing and then trying to find ways

1095
00:54:25,599 --> 00:54:29,280
that we can partner so that we can be uh

1096
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,920
partakers of of the diversification.

1097
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,319
I've been here 36 years. I worked in

1098
00:54:34,319 --> 00:54:37,599
government for 20 well 30 years and all

1099
00:54:37,599 --> 00:54:39,760
I ever heard was the need to diversify

1100
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:42,400
our economy and we're finally getting

1101
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:44,960
there. Um but I think I'll just tell you

1102
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,160
one of the things I said when I was in

1103
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,640
the legislature as a state of Nevada. We

1104
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,559
also have a responsibility to know what

1105
00:54:50,559 --> 00:54:53,920
our worth is and people come here and

1106
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,240
they want to take advantage of all the

1107
00:54:56,240 --> 00:54:58,800
fabulousness of our weather and

1108
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,599
everything. But are they really bringing

1109
00:55:01,599 --> 00:55:05,200
to our community their best? And I hope

1110
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:07,040
that as you all are out there doing this

1111
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:08,880
work that you are really holding these

1112
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,200
folks accountable to reach to the

1113
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,760
depths, not what's convenient,

1114
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,640
but what is the real work in lifting up

1115
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:18,559
communities. And I just want to tell you

1116
00:55:18,559 --> 00:55:20,079
thank you. I'm proud of you. I was at

1117
00:55:20,079 --> 00:55:22,720
your um first presentation. Did a great

1118
00:55:22,720 --> 00:55:24,480
job. And I'm excited to see what you're

1119
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:25,440
doing.

1120
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,349
>> Mayor, Councilwoman, thank you so much.

1121
00:55:27,349 --> 00:55:27,359
» Mayor, Councilwoman, thank you so much.

1122
00:55:27,359 --> 00:55:29,520
I I look forward to grabbing some time

1123
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:31,760
to unpack that with you. And I'll just

1124
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,839
add it was very intentional. It's a

1125
00:55:33,839 --> 00:55:35,440
start. If you look back at our mission

1126
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,440
and vision statement, it's extremely

1127
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:39,040
intentional that it talks about creating

1128
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:40,880
opportunity for all. I'm a huge believer

1129
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:42,160
in that. We've actually done a lot of

1130
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:43,440
work even through the International

1131
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,760
Economic Development Council on

1132
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:47,520
equitable economic development. So,

1133
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:49,280
we'll discuss that more.

1134
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,670
>> Thank you. Um Councilwoman Puinsky,

1135
00:55:51,670 --> 00:55:51,680
» Thank you. Um Councilwoman Puinsky,

1136
00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,430
>> thank you, Madam Mayor. Um Miss Casey, I

1137
00:55:53,430 --> 00:55:53,440
» thank you, Madam Mayor. Um Miss Casey, I

1138
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:54,720
haven't had the opportunity to meet you.

1139
00:55:54,720 --> 00:55:57,359
I'm glad you're here today. Uh, I did

1140
00:55:57,359 --> 00:55:58,960
work with your predecessor. I think we

1141
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,680
all did with the previous mayor. Uh, the

1142
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,720
last time I think LVGA came through, uh,

1143
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:07,359
it was right at uh, the football, excuse

1144
00:56:07,359 --> 00:56:09,599
me, the Super Bowl time and y'all came

1145
00:56:09,599 --> 00:56:12,480
and asked us to invest. And, uh, we had

1146
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:13,839
a return of, I think about six

1147
00:56:13,839 --> 00:56:15,839
businesses that relocated here after

1148
00:56:15,839 --> 00:56:17,200
that investment. And I just want to

1149
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,200
remind you that we have the college

1150
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:21,040
football championships coming and then

1151
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:22,960
another Super Bowl coming. as a the

1152
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,839
representative on the LBCVA, we have a

1153
00:56:25,839 --> 00:56:29,440
lot of these uh very na nationwide

1154
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,119
prominent events happening and I hope

1155
00:56:31,119 --> 00:56:33,680
that you use them to do our best to

1156
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,880
hungry hungry hippo our fair share of uh

1157
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,240
of um of diversification and investment.

1158
00:56:40,240 --> 00:56:42,390
>> Mayor Councilwoman, I love that analogy.

1159
00:56:42,390 --> 00:56:42,400
» Mayor Councilwoman, I love that analogy.

1160
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:43,839
Yes. [laughter] Thank you.

1161
00:56:43,839 --> 00:56:44,710
>> Thank you,

1162
00:56:44,710 --> 00:56:44,720
» Thank you,

1163
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:46,230
>> Mayor Prov.

1164
00:56:46,230 --> 00:56:46,240
» Mayor Prov.

1165
00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:48,309
>> So good to see you, Miss Casey. Um, it's

1166
00:56:48,309 --> 00:56:48,319
» So good to see you, Miss Casey. Um, it's

1167
00:56:48,319 --> 00:56:50,240
hard to believe it's almost been a year

1168
00:56:50,240 --> 00:56:52,880
since you've arrived in Las Vegas. I

1169
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:54,960
hope that you like my hometown. I'm born

1170
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,440
and raised here. So, um, I hope that you

1171
00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,559
find it fresh of breath air and, um, so

1172
00:57:00,559 --> 00:57:02,319
lovely. The people here really are

1173
00:57:02,319 --> 00:57:05,040
amazing. Uh, I wanted to basically

1174
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,880
recognize LBGA's um, just work with

1175
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:11,839
other agency partners that is important

1176
00:57:11,839 --> 00:57:14,000
and moves the needle faster for all of

1177
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,839
the local municipalities in Southern

1178
00:57:15,839 --> 00:57:17,599
Nevada. So, I know you work handinand

1179
00:57:17,599 --> 00:57:19,440
glove with Workforce Connections. I know

1180
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,440
you're a great ally and partner of the

1181
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,520
Vegas Chamber. And I think that all of

1182
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,839
that cohesiveness and synergy and we

1183
00:57:25,839 --> 00:57:27,680
were wishing you were going to be across

1184
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:32,720
the way um someday maybe um so that you

1185
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,520
guys could be colllocated and have um

1186
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,520
these just organic conversations about

1187
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,400
how do we meet move the needle faster

1188
00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:44,079
for our region. divers. I mean, 34,000

1189
00:57:44,079 --> 00:57:46,880
jobs in five years is not a small feat.

1190
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:48,720
Um, but I think it's very needed. And

1191
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:50,880
when I saw the numbers pop up on the

1192
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,160
screen, that 41 the average hourly wage

1193
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,599
is $41 an hour, that that is amazing.

1194
00:57:57,599 --> 00:57:59,839
And we definitely I echo the sentiments

1195
00:57:59,839 --> 00:58:02,240
of um my colleague um Councilwoman

1196
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,000
Summers Armstrong. We want those jobs to

1197
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,799
go to our Las Vegas. We want it to be

1198
00:58:06,799 --> 00:58:09,359
for our residents. I hate hearing, oh,

1199
00:58:09,359 --> 00:58:11,920
we had to bring our workforce from

1200
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:15,040
outside of our city. I I think we do

1201
00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,359
need to work more intentionally on

1202
00:58:17,359 --> 00:58:20,079
ensuring that um those opportunities

1203
00:58:20,079 --> 00:58:21,599
we're we're making sure there's people

1204
00:58:21,599 --> 00:58:25,200
in the queue to then feed um that that

1205
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,839
job to that is local. So, um, just

1206
00:58:27,839 --> 00:58:30,160
posting that I'm I'm a big fan of all

1207
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,160
the work you guys are doing and, um,

1208
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:33,599
appreciate all the help and assistance

1209
00:58:33,599 --> 00:58:35,520
you're providing our economic and urban

1210
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,680
development team and landing more and

1211
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:39,359
more investment in our city because we

1212
00:58:39,359 --> 00:58:41,040
truly all need it. Thank you.

1213
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:44,150
>> Thank you, Miss Kelly.

1214
00:58:44,150 --> 00:58:44,160
» Thank you, Miss Kelly.

1215
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:46,710
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor, and welcome,

1216
00:58:46,710 --> 00:58:46,720
» Thank you, Madam Mayor, and welcome,

1217
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,720
Danielle. It's lovely to see you and

1218
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,760
your team. I'm very impressed u not only

1219
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:53,920
that your board members decided to stand

1220
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:57,520
during this time but honestly it really

1221
00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,960
shows a level of commitment that is

1222
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:05,119
refreshing. Um the I've I too I'm a

1223
00:59:05,119 --> 00:59:08,640
native like my colleague and have been

1224
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,680
in the public arena uh since it was the

1225
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,119
NDA and I'm really you know I remember

1226
00:59:15,119 --> 00:59:18,240
talking to um our former city mayor I

1227
00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:20,880
mean city c uh city manager Betsy Frwell

1228
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:22,880
about well she was helping with the

1229
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:26,640
selection and about the opportunity and

1230
00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,880
she you know certainly she said I don't

1231
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,079
know what the board's going to end up

1232
00:59:30,079 --> 00:59:32,319
wanting to do but I I really feel that

1233
00:59:32,319 --> 00:59:35,359
we need someone who has a significant

1234
00:59:35,359 --> 00:59:37,200
level of expertise in economic

1235
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:39,839
development, something that the agency

1236
00:59:39,839 --> 00:59:42,079
or the organization hadn't had for a

1237
00:59:42,079 --> 00:59:45,280
very long time. And I met with Danielle

1238
00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:49,200
very early. Um, and and I was I was, you

1239
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,000
know, new to this job as well. And what

1240
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:55,760
I loved about that meeting and what I

1241
00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:57,920
think I'm sure she did with everybody

1242
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,880
because I heard about it was she she

1243
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:04,720
came to listen and she really wanted to

1244
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:06,799
understand the community. She wanted to

1245
01:00:06,799 --> 01:00:10,079
understand what the board wanted. Um and

1246
01:00:10,079 --> 01:00:14,160
that and then I I was excited to see how

1247
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,000
the board

1248
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:20,480
um and the leadership it it was so

1249
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:22,880
invested in the success. You know, we

1250
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:24,960
want Danielle to be phenomenally

1251
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:29,599
successful. Uh and we need LVGA to be

1252
01:00:29,599 --> 01:00:31,680
phenomenally successful for the people

1253
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,880
who work here and for all the reasons

1254
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:38,799
you understand. Um and and but you acted

1255
01:00:38,799 --> 01:00:40,799
quickly too. I mean you were you were

1256
01:00:40,799 --> 01:00:43,359
and so I want to compliment

1257
01:00:43,359 --> 01:00:46,880
that from afar. Um because it was

1258
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:51,599
evident. It was it is it is wonderful to

1259
01:00:51,599 --> 01:00:54,559
see that there it's about strategy

1260
01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:56,960
really focus that the board seems I

1261
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:59,359
think um and again from the outside far

1262
01:00:59,359 --> 01:01:01,599
more engaged and cohesive than they've

1263
01:01:01,599 --> 01:01:05,040
ever been. Um, and I'm sure that's

1264
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,000
that's in part also to your selection of

1265
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,720
Danielle and her leadership. So, I

1266
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,119
really appreciate this information. It's

1267
01:01:13,119 --> 01:01:16,799
very thorough. I look forward to uh um

1268
01:01:16,799 --> 01:01:19,359
you know, understanding as as the as

1269
01:01:19,359 --> 01:01:22,480
Councilwoman Summers said, some more of

1270
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:24,720
the unpacking. So, how does this relate

1271
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:27,359
to what we're doing at the city and how

1272
01:01:27,359 --> 01:01:31,200
can we um make sure that that the

1273
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,359
education we're providing or whatever

1274
01:01:33,359 --> 01:01:37,440
we're doing, pardon me, is um uh through

1275
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,240
our technical and and and partnerships

1276
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,640
with the community college or UNLV or

1277
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,920
whatever we're doing supports uh what we

1278
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,079
need and supports how you're going to be

1279
01:01:48,079 --> 01:01:51,359
able to continue to collaborate with us.

1280
01:01:51,359 --> 01:01:52,960
So, thank you. do that. I do have a

1281
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:56,400
specific question about uh the quote

1282
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,799
that you included on the page that says

1283
01:01:58,799 --> 01:02:00,319
defining the challenge.

1284
01:02:00,319 --> 01:02:00,789
>> Yeah.

1285
01:02:00,789 --> 01:02:00,799
» Yeah.

1286
01:02:00,799 --> 01:02:02,630
>> And and and

1287
01:02:02,630 --> 01:02:02,640
» And and and

1288
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,200
um I don't have a page number maybe it

1289
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:09,359
has a um slide number page 11 on the

1290
01:02:09,359 --> 01:02:13,119
slide if they'll bring that back um

1291
01:02:13,119 --> 01:02:14,799
right before. And that what was

1292
01:02:14,799 --> 01:02:17,200
interesting about the quote Danielle

1293
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,440
which came from the one there on the

1294
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,000
right hand side. If you could help me

1295
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:25,599
understand this uh potential site

1296
01:02:25,599 --> 01:02:28,880
selection consultant who articulates

1297
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:31,119
uh the frustration of not being able to

1298
01:02:31,119 --> 01:02:33,440
find suitable land. Can you help me what

1299
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,520
what what are we talking about?

1300
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:36,720
Particularly at the end where it says

1301
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,359
you user for for an end user versus

1302
01:02:39,359 --> 01:02:40,880
developer.

1303
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,109
>> Uh mayor Councilwoman great question.

1304
01:02:43,109 --> 01:02:43,119
» Uh mayor Councilwoman great question.

1305
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:45,119
I'm glad that you honed in on that. It's

1306
01:02:45,119 --> 01:02:47,119
it's it's a continual challenge. This

1307
01:02:47,119 --> 01:02:48,799
specific site selection consultant has

1308
01:02:48,799 --> 01:02:50,400
actually looked at our market over the

1309
01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,079
years many times. A lot of our local

1310
01:02:52,079 --> 01:02:53,520
economic developers are familiar with

1311
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,680
the individual and they came to us with

1312
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:58,319
an opportunity for,00

1313
01:02:58,319 --> 01:03:00,160
new jobs, family-owned company out of

1314
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,520
California. Um good starting wages

1315
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:06,160
internally training everyone up. So very

1316
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,240
positive. But what they can't find

1317
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,240
anywhere is 200 acres with

1318
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:13,200
infrastructure that could then be

1319
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:14,960
conveyed straight from a property owner

1320
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:16,559
or otherwise that was ready to go. And

1321
01:03:16,559 --> 01:03:18,319
when they say developer, they mean that

1322
01:03:18,319 --> 01:03:19,839
it might already be in the hands of a

1323
01:03:19,839 --> 01:03:21,359
developer who's planning on carving that

1324
01:03:21,359 --> 01:03:23,680
up and not able to then convey that to

1325
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,760
one significant user. So very

1326
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:27,200
challenging and not something we've been

1327
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,799
able to find in the region that that's

1328
01:03:28,799 --> 01:03:30,960
suitable for them at this point. So uh

1329
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:32,640
they had reached out to me and and and

1330
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:34,000
it was kind of a direct conversation.

1331
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:35,280
They said, "Great, we've known you for

1332
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:36,880
20 years. let's see what you can do. Is

1333
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:38,799
anything different? Do you have a site

1334
01:03:38,799 --> 01:03:40,799
for me? And we we really tried to turn

1335
01:03:40,799 --> 01:03:43,280
over all the rocks. You know, some some

1336
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,240
maybe vaguely potential sites, but

1337
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,400
nothing that's sticking just yet. So, to

1338
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:49,920
me, this is a call to action. If those

1339
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:51,440
are the types of employment that we

1340
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:52,880
want, if they're the types of employment

1341
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:54,559
we want, we first have to decide that

1342
01:03:54,559 --> 01:03:57,359
when we get a requirement and and if so,

1343
01:03:57,359 --> 01:03:58,880
we need to think about, as I mentioned

1344
01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,200
before, how are we working today? Best

1345
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,119
time to plant a tree, right? 20 years

1346
01:04:03,119 --> 01:04:05,680
ago or today. um how are we working to

1347
01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:08,480
figure out um whether it's um you know

1348
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:10,640
revitalization or property improvement

1349
01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,799
and and assembly or identifying sites

1350
01:04:12,799 --> 01:04:14,160
that need infrastructure and these can

1351
01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:16,480
be conversations that go all the way up

1352
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,160
of course to the state level on how

1353
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,240
we're making investments. I I hate the

1354
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,079
word incentive actually as an economic

1355
01:04:22,079 --> 01:04:23,520
developer I like to think about

1356
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:24,960
everything that we do make sure we're

1357
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,319
doing it as an investment in the

1358
01:04:26,319 --> 01:04:27,920
community so they're assets we have for

1359
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:29,359
the community going forward.

1360
01:04:29,359 --> 01:04:31,510
>> Thank you. And if I may just follow up

1361
01:04:31,510 --> 01:04:31,520
» Thank you. And if I may just follow up

1362
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:33,039
on that, mayor, I really appreciate your

1363
01:04:33,039 --> 01:04:35,280
indulgence. Uh, I'm the newest member of

1364
01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:38,240
the council and I'm here for a short

1365
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,319
time, so I hope you'll pardon my

1366
01:04:40,319 --> 01:04:42,079
ignorance, but specifically to this

1367
01:04:42,079 --> 01:04:46,799
point, do you is there is there a

1368
01:04:46,799 --> 01:04:48,960
um a strategy about interacting with the

1369
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,839
BLM or when we're looking at federally

1370
01:04:51,839 --> 01:04:54,960
owned land and then I would imagine

1371
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:56,880
you're in communication when you're

1372
01:04:56,880 --> 01:04:58,960
looking for those things with either

1373
01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,079
Dena or her counterparts and other and

1374
01:05:02,079 --> 01:05:03,599
other of the municipalities. qualities

1375
01:05:03,599 --> 01:05:06,240
about what uh we may be doing that you

1376
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:08,079
may not be fully aware of or what have

1377
01:05:08,079 --> 01:05:09,599
you. And that'll be the end of my

1378
01:05:09,599 --> 01:05:11,440
question. Thank you.

1379
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:11,910
>> That's correct.

1380
01:05:11,910 --> 01:05:11,920
» That's correct.

1381
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:12,870
>> I think that's why there's

1382
01:05:12,870 --> 01:05:12,880
» I think that's why there's

1383
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,599
representation of the city on the the

1384
01:05:15,599 --> 01:05:18,079
their board so that they we coordinate

1385
01:05:18,079 --> 01:05:21,119
and know what each other is doing.

1386
01:05:21,119 --> 01:05:22,630
>> Councilwoman, absolutely correct. And

1387
01:05:22,630 --> 01:05:22,640
» Councilwoman, absolutely correct. And

1388
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:24,240
those are those monthly meetings with

1389
01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:25,920
all the economic developers that we're

1390
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:28,240
sharing the the opportunities that are

1391
01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:29,680
coming in. We touch base with them on

1392
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,280
that. We'll we'll have individual

1393
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:32,799
meetings with different municipalities

1394
01:05:32,799 --> 01:05:34,880
as needed. And I can tell you we have a

1395
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,200
a project not looking within the city of

1396
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:38,720
Las Vegas. I have to be careful about

1397
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:40,960
non-disclosure, but we have a a call at

1398
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:42,799
11:30 today about a project that would

1399
01:05:42,799 --> 01:05:44,799
require some BLM land. And I've spent

1400
01:05:44,799 --> 01:05:46,640
about two hours already this week on on

1401
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,240
a phone with BLM and with that

1402
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:49,039
community.

1403
01:05:49,039 --> 01:05:50,230
>> Okay. Thank you very much, Mayor.

1404
01:05:50,230 --> 01:05:50,240
» Okay. Thank you very much, Mayor.

1405
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:50,640
Appreciate it.

1406
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:53,829
>> You're welcome, Miss Rooney.

1407
01:05:53,829 --> 01:05:53,839
» You're welcome, Miss Rooney.

1408
01:05:53,839 --> 01:05:55,029
>> Thank you, Mayor, and thank you,

1409
01:05:55,029 --> 01:05:55,039
» Thank you, Mayor, and thank you,

1410
01:05:55,039 --> 01:05:56,880
Danielle, for coming this morning to

1411
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,039
speak with us. Um, I happened to meet

1412
01:05:59,039 --> 01:06:01,119
with a couple of tech startups this week

1413
01:06:01,119 --> 01:06:03,119
and so as you're going through your

1414
01:06:03,119 --> 01:06:04,640
presentation, I was just wondering what

1415
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:07,920
role do you see LVGA playing in

1416
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:10,079
supporting that ecosystem either for

1417
01:06:10,079 --> 01:06:11,920
folks that are already here or are

1418
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:13,760
thinking about coming here.

1419
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:15,910
>> Mayor, Councilwoman Bry, also another

1420
01:06:15,910 --> 01:06:15,920
» Mayor, Councilwoman Bry, also another

1421
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,960
excellent question. LVGA's scope does

1422
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,280
not well you know with any with enough

1423
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,200
time and money and resources anything is

1424
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:25,680
possible in our current scope of work

1425
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:28,000
and areas of responsibility we don't see

1426
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:29,920
ourselves as say being the the

1427
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:31,839
organization that is teaching people how

1428
01:06:31,839 --> 01:06:34,000
to be entrepreneurs and startups but

1429
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:35,839
long term in our strategy you will see

1430
01:06:35,839 --> 01:06:37,520
things in there about working to attract

1431
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,599
more VC investment and investment

1432
01:06:39,599 --> 01:06:42,240
capital telling a more critical and

1433
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:44,240
important story about the market as a

1434
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:45,760
place to do business especially to

1435
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,000
startups outside of the market and and

1436
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:49,599
really also digging into things like the

1437
01:06:49,599 --> 01:06:51,039
built environment. So are there ways

1438
01:06:51,039 --> 01:06:53,039
that we can encourage public private

1439
01:06:53,039 --> 01:06:54,640
partnerships and development thinking

1440
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,480
about our university systems and their

1441
01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:58,720
assets. So we have a lot of examples

1442
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:00,400
that we are working on right now that

1443
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:01,839
we've seen in other communities that

1444
01:07:01,839 --> 01:07:03,440
have specifically helped with that and a

1445
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:04,720
lot of times that does plug into the

1446
01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:06,240
university system.

1447
01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:07,510
>> That's great to hear because I do think

1448
01:07:07,510 --> 01:07:07,520
» That's great to hear because I do think

1449
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:09,680
that we have a gap. So I'm excited that

1450
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,119
you guys will be taking the lead on

1451
01:07:11,119 --> 01:07:13,200
that.

1452
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,520
Miss Casey, thank you so much. And it's

1453
01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:18,319

it just keeps getting better and you are

1457
01:07:27,119 --> 01:07:30,000
a remarkable addition to uh to

1458
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,160
everything that is being proposed and

1459
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:34,559
planned by the global alliance. Thank

is a member of our team, Alex Strazzer.

1497
01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,880
He actually uh was leading what we're

1498
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:16,400
about to present today. So I would like

1499
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:19,359
for him to join me in this presentation.

1500
01:09:19,359 --> 01:09:21,269
>> Welcome.

1501
01:09:21,269 --> 01:09:21,279
» Welcome.

1502
01:09:21,279 --> 01:09:22,550
>> Thank you.

1503
01:09:22,550 --> 01:09:22,560
» Thank you.

1504
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:25,749
>> Um so this has been quite a road for us.

1505
01:09:25,749 --> 01:09:25,759
» Um so this has been quite a road for us.

1506
01:09:25,759 --> 01:09:29,600
Uh last September you all voted uh to uh

1507
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:31,520
pass a resolution that would enable us

1508
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:33,920
to start the uh exploration of

1509
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:36,239
establishing a new redevelopment area.

1510
01:09:36,239 --> 01:09:38,480
Uh the East Las Vegas area plan that was

1511
01:09:38,480 --> 01:09:40,960
adopted back in 2023. One of the key

1512
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,040
elements called out in that plan was

1513
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,359
specifically exploring whether a new

1514
01:09:45,359 --> 01:09:47,759
redevelopment area could be uh

1515
01:09:47,759 --> 01:09:49,839
established as part of of that plan in

1516
01:09:49,839 --> 01:09:51,759
order to uh you know help with the

1517
01:09:51,759 --> 01:09:54,159
revitalization of the neighborhood um

1518
01:09:54,159 --> 01:09:56,159
establish some you know or or I guess

1519
01:09:56,159 --> 01:09:57,679
promote economic development and things

1520
01:09:57,679 --> 01:10:00,239
that redevelopment uh agency can enable

1521
01:10:00,239 --> 01:10:03,920
communities to do. So with that um a

1522
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:05,679
little background on where uh we have

1523
01:10:05,679 --> 01:10:07,280
been as far as the redevelopment agency

1524
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,159
in our areas. Back in 1986,

1525
01:10:10,159 --> 01:10:12,320
redevelopment agency was established and

1526
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,640
that's when the area one was established

1527
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,440
primarily covering the downtown core.

1528
01:10:17,440 --> 01:10:19,600
Then in 2012, we established a second

1529
01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:22,159
redevelopment area that covers uh the

1530
01:10:22,159 --> 01:10:24,400
west of Charleston West and a lot of the

1531
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,880
medical district. So now we're 14 years

1532
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,120
later down the road and that's what that

1533
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,120
was a good time for us to explore what

1534
01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,920
can we do on the east side.

1535
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:35,920
So the team uh with your resolution

1536
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,800
approved resolution uh moved forward on

1537
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:41,280
uh establishing the area of study for

1538
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:43,760
the blight study that is required by NRS

1539
01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,000
279 in order to determine if the if the

1540
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:47,520
area qualifies to be deemed a

1541
01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:50,000
redevelopment area. The yellow boundary

1542
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,640
that you see on the map uh that was the

1543
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:55,280
study area boundary. All of the parcels

1544
01:10:55,280 --> 01:10:56,880
that you see in the blue were

1545
01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,760
specifically uh evaluated whether they

1546
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:01,920
met the requirements called out by the

1547
01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,800
statute to be eligible uh as part of the

1548
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:07,120
redevelopment area.

1549
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,280
And by the way, the study was started in

1550
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:11,440
uh November, early November. It took

1551
01:11:11,440 --> 01:11:13,920
four months for our team to go out and

1552
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:16,159
and uh evaluate every single property,

1553
01:11:16,159 --> 01:11:18,640
document conditions, take photos, and

1554
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:20,800
since February, the team was literally

1555
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,800
doing a deep dive and analysis into

1556
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:24,480
every single property to determine its

1557
01:11:24,480 --> 01:11:27,040
eligibility.

1558
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:29,520
So, this is a uh a snapshot of all the

1559
01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,239
redevelopment areas if the area three is

1560
01:11:32,239 --> 01:11:34,400
established. uh as you see on the map uh

1561
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,840
our agency will essentially cover the uh

1562
01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,880
most of the downtown core and I I I mean

1563
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:42,880
I am so excited for this project or for

1564
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,800
this initiative because uh everything

1565
01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:47,360
that we've done in area one and area two

1566
01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:49,520
is just is a great example of what we

1567
01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:51,280
will now be able to do in on the east

1568
01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:53,440
side of the city.

1569
01:11:53,440 --> 01:11:55,360
Why a new redevelopment area? I

1570
01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:57,360
basically already spoke to it. Every two

1571
01:11:57,360 --> 01:11:59,840
weeks you all vote on different grants

1572
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:01,360
and investments that the redevelopment

1573
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:04,320
agency does uh within its boundary. And

1574
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:06,159
you know the the the most important

1575
01:12:06,159 --> 01:12:08,080
thing is with the redevelopment agencies

1576
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,080
the way they are funded is by the

1577
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,000
property tax increment that is generated

1578
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,480
with new development as well as the uh

1579
01:12:14,480 --> 01:12:16,400
property value increases within that

1580
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,960
area. So this is a quick slide that

1581
01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:21,120
shows how does that work. Uh once the

1582
01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:22,960
redevelopment area is established, we

1583
01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:24,480
will send the parcel numbers to the

1584
01:12:24,480 --> 01:12:27,280
assessor's office. uh that that will set

1585
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,840
set the tax baseline. From that point

1586
01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:32,640
on, every year any new development that

1587
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,480
happens there that creates new property

1588
01:12:34,480 --> 01:12:36,960
tax as well as uh the increase in the

1589
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:38,800
property values would be set aside for

1590
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,960
the redevelopment area 3 to continue to

1591
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:44,080
investment in the community.

1592
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,239
With that, uh I would like Alex to talk

1593
01:12:46,239 --> 01:12:47,679
about the blight study because they were

1594
01:12:47,679 --> 01:12:51,750
out there every day.

1595
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:53,280
» Good morning, Mayor Berkeley and members

1596
01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,360
of the city council. Alex Strawer, City

1597
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:57,199
of Las Vegas Department of Economic and

1598
01:12:57,199 --> 01:12:59,679
Urban Development. For the record, um

1599
01:12:59,679 --> 01:13:01,679
between, as Dina mentioned, between

1600
01:13:01,679 --> 01:13:04,000
November and February, we were out in

1601
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,159
the field every every day, it seemed

1602
01:13:06,159 --> 01:13:09,199
like, assessing nearly uh 1300

1603
01:13:09,199 --> 01:13:10,880
properties to see if they met the

1604
01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:12,960
physical characteristics of light. Uh

1605
01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,440
this blight study also looked at the

1606
01:13:15,440 --> 01:13:18,719
socioeconomic uh data as well uh to get

1607
01:13:18,719 --> 01:13:23,040
that full comprehensive uh view as to if

1608
01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:25,280
this area met the state requirements for

1609
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,840
a blighted area. Overall we found that

1610
01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:30,800
of the 12 blight conditions, nine were

1611
01:13:30,800 --> 01:13:33,360
prevalent in this community and two

1612
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,159
affected at least two affected uh nearly

1613
01:13:36,159 --> 01:13:38,960
every property. Some of our findings

1614
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:42,640
included um aging buildings. So over 80%

1615
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:45,040
of the uh building inventory was built

1616
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:48,159
before 1999. This requires more

1617
01:13:48,159 --> 01:13:50,480
reinvestment for the property owners as

1618
01:13:50,480 --> 01:13:53,440
well as maintenance to manage uh

1619
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:55,520
deterioration and upgrade building

1620
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,960
systems. We also found shifting uh uses

1621
01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:02,320
for new users in buildings that were uh

1622
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:03,920
different than what were previously

1623
01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:06,239
designed for. One in one one instance

1624
01:14:06,239 --> 01:14:08,960
was a dentist office that is now

1625
01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:11,040
occupying a a bank with the

1626
01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:13,520
drive-throughs. Uh this creates

1627
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,080
operational efficiency inefficiencies as

1628
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:19,360
well as um additional deterioration in

1629
01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:22,800
building costs for the property owner.

1630
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:24,880
Crowded spaces. So our modern building

1631
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:27,840
codes have requirements that allow for

1632
01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:29,679
safety, accessibility, and overall

1633
01:14:29,679 --> 01:14:32,480
function on the site. Uh for instance,

1634
01:14:32,480 --> 01:14:34,239
some of these sites were located off of

1635
01:14:34,239 --> 01:14:37,520
major thoroughares and some of which

1636
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,080
required backing on to high-speed uh

1637
01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:41,600
rightaways.

1638
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,159
Some were located adjacent to the

1639
01:14:44,159 --> 01:14:45,760
property line which can create a fire

1640
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:48,080
hazard and spread to neighboring

1641
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:50,880
properties. For commercial and

1642
01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,360
multifamily properties, the size,

1643
01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,520
spacing, and overall traffic circulation

1644
01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:57,840
is a major component. And when these

1645
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:00,480
standards aren't met, this can rely on

1646
01:15:00,480 --> 01:15:03,679
uh off off on street parking and loading

1647
01:15:03,679 --> 01:15:06,080
requirements.

1648
01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:08,000
Economic strain, the visible signs of

1649
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:11,199
blight, empty businesses and vacant

1650
01:15:11,199 --> 01:15:13,280
lots,

1651
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:15,679
heat and no shade was a major component,

1652
01:15:15,679 --> 01:15:17,840
a major challenge facing facing this

1653
01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:20,239
community as identified in the city of

1654
01:15:20,239 --> 01:15:22,640
Las Vegas 2050 master plan as well as

1655
01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:25,040
the waistro futuro east Las Vegas

1656
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:27,440
special area plan. Uh this can

1657
01:15:27,440 --> 01:15:29,600
discourage pedestrian activity as well

1658
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:31,360
as further deteriorate building

1659
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:33,520
materials.

1660
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:35,760
Traffic dangers for higher frequency

1661
01:15:35,760 --> 01:15:38,400
visitors than previously designed for.

1662
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,840
Uh this is very problematic for for

1663
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:44,480
residents in this community as more

1664
01:15:44,480 --> 01:15:47,440
pedestrians take public transit, walk or

1665
01:15:47,440 --> 01:15:49,920
bike as their commute than in then

1666
01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:51,520
compared to the city, state and national

1667
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:54,159
trends.

1668
01:15:54,159 --> 01:15:56,800
Unsafe rideway. So this alleyway had

1669
01:15:56,800 --> 01:16:00,560
multiple uh trap trash receptacles lined

1670
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,400
up the alley which can make it difficult

1671
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:05,280
for uh emergency vehicle access as well

1672
01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:08,239
as motorists. This photo also shows a

1673
01:16:08,239 --> 01:16:10,000
lack of lighting infrastructure can

1674
01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:12,320
which can create the perception of an

1675
01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:14,800
unsafe environment as well as uh the

1676
01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:17,679
visible grime and uh the lack of

1677
01:16:17,679 --> 01:16:20,800
property maintenance

1678
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:24,000
loss of value. So having uh making it

1679
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:26,400
more difficult to retain tenants can

1680
01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:28,719
make it difficult for property owners to

1681
01:16:28,719 --> 01:16:30,400
continue to make the investments into

1682
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:32,480
their property to make these um

1683
01:16:32,480 --> 01:16:35,360
enhancements.

1684
01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:38,320
And so when we have a vacant lot uh

1685
01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:40,800
which lo East Las Vegas has 81 acres

1686
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:43,360
available, this can create a opportunity

1687
01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:46,480
for uh illegal dumping and homeless

1688
01:16:46,480 --> 01:16:48,880
individuals. Uh and unfortunately when

1689
01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:51,360
these uh challenges pile up and become

1690
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,440
visible, this can impact neighboring

1691
01:16:53,440 --> 01:16:55,920
businesses.

1692
01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:58,480
For this project to uh come forward to

1693
01:16:58,480 --> 01:17:00,400
you, public outreach was a major

1694
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:02,800
component that we really heavily relied

1695
01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:05,520
on. Since April, this project has been

1696
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:08,880
featured in the W 3 council uh e

1697
01:17:08,880 --> 01:17:11,760
newsletter, which has over uh 13,000

1698
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,400
recipients. For the last four weeks,

1699
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:17,280
we've had um this project featured in

1700
01:17:17,280 --> 01:17:20,480
the Las Vegas Review Journal. We've had

1701
01:17:20,480 --> 01:17:22,239
three different neighborhood meetings

1702
01:17:22,239 --> 01:17:23,920
where all the property owners with

1703
01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:28,159
within 500 ft were notified uh providing

1704
01:17:28,159 --> 01:17:30,320
translation services to have the meeting

1705
01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:32,880
in English and Spanish. Uh this meet

1706
01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:34,320
these meetings were at a variety of

1707
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:36,400
locations within East Las Vegas and

1708
01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:38,960
overall we had approximately 130

1709
01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:42,560
individuals show up. Uh lastly, uh we

1710
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:44,800
had to send a mailed uh notice to all

1711
01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:46,719
the property owners directly impacted by

1712
01:17:46,719 --> 01:17:49,360
this uh project and the public hearing

1713
01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:51,440
process moving forward. I want to give a

1714
01:17:51,440 --> 01:17:53,199
big thank you to the communications team

1715
01:17:53,199 --> 01:17:55,040
for helping us coordinate our uh

1716
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:58,480
bilingual translations as well as to uh

1717
01:17:58,480 --> 01:18:01,679
execute the mailing notices.

1718
01:18:01,679 --> 01:18:03,679
Last month, this project went before the

1719
01:18:03,679 --> 01:18:05,360
planning commission and they determined

1720
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:07,760
that the this area met the state

1721
01:18:07,760 --> 01:18:10,560
requirement for uh blight under state

1722
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,600
statute and also recommended a unanimous

1723
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:16,080
approval of the redevelopment plan. With

1724
01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:18,159
that, I will turn it back over to uh

1725
01:18:18,159 --> 01:18:19,920
Dena, who will give a overview of the

1726
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:22,800
redevelopment plan goals and objectives.

1727
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:24,070
>> Thank you, Alex.

1728
01:18:24,070 --> 01:18:24,080
» Thank you, Alex.

1729
01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:26,550
>> Thank you, Alex. Uh I I I also want to

1730
01:18:26,550 --> 01:18:26,560
» Thank you, Alex. Uh I I I also want to

1731
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:28,640
join Alex in thanking a few folks. Alex

1732
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:30,400
and Sierra Webinar team were out there

1733
01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:32,159
taking photos and documenting

1734
01:18:32,159 --> 01:18:33,679
communications department and of course

1735
01:18:33,679 --> 01:18:35,199
city's attorney's office. There's been a

1736
01:18:35,199 --> 01:18:38,400
quite a rigorous uh I guess legal

1737
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:40,080
process for us to make sure we hit every

1738
01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:41,679
single requirement in an area. So I'm

1739
01:18:41,679 --> 01:18:43,679
very grateful for that. But to summarize

1740
01:18:43,679 --> 01:18:45,280
really our presentation as part of

1741
01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:47,360
today's action is going to be uh

1742
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:49,760
introduction of a new ordinance uh later

1743
01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:51,600
in the council meeting to adopt the new

1744
01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:53,920
redevelopment plan for area 3. And just

1745
01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:55,920
like with other uh redevelopment plans

1746
01:18:55,920 --> 01:18:57,679
that we have for area one and two, the

1747
01:18:57,679 --> 01:18:59,840
focus is still the same to eliminate

1748
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:02,480
blight or reduce its spread to keep our

1749
01:19:02,480 --> 01:19:03,920
businesses in there. But most

1750
01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:06,719
importantly, it's to uh have, you know,

1751
01:19:06,719 --> 01:19:09,520
to to I I guess invest in the community

1752
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:11,120
so that private investment can be

1753
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:13,360
unlocked because it's so important for

1754
01:19:13,360 --> 01:19:16,159
us to be able to derisk uh projects in

1755
01:19:16,159 --> 01:19:17,679
these community with infrastructure

1756
01:19:17,679 --> 01:19:20,480
upgrades with uh you know public works

1757
01:19:20,480 --> 01:19:22,000
things that could be potentially part of

1758
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:24,080
the uh work the redevelopment agency

1759
01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:26,239
will partner on because once that's in

1760
01:19:26,239 --> 01:19:28,159
place, private investment will come and

1761
01:19:28,159 --> 01:19:30,080
we've seen that in you know in downtown

1762
01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:31,920
Las Vegas, Arts District, Symphony Park,

1763
01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,400
Medical District. So, we're very excited

1764
01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:36,800
to introduce this uh very grateful for

1765
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:38,560
the work that the team has done and if

1766
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:40,880
this is established, it will live for 30

1767
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,840
years and so that is a good amount of

1768
01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:45,679
years to really bring the community to

1769
01:19:45,679 --> 01:19:47,679
where it's supposed to be. So, thank

1770
01:19:47,679 --> 01:19:49,280
you. This completes our presentation and

1771
01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:50,719
we're happy to answer any questions.

1772
01:19:50,719 --> 01:19:53,510
>> Thank you so much. Do any of the city

1773
01:19:53,510 --> 01:19:53,520
» Thank you so much. Do any of the city

1774
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:55,679
council members have any questions or

1775
01:19:55,679 --> 01:19:58,320
comments?

1776
01:19:58,320 --> 01:19:59,830
>> And Miss Rooney.

1777
01:19:59,830 --> 01:19:59,840
» And Miss Rooney.

1778
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:01,830
>> Thank you, mayor. Quick question. I

1779
01:20:01,830 --> 01:20:01,840
» Thank you, mayor. Quick question. I

1780
01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:03,520
appreciate the community outreach. It

1781
01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:06,159
feels like a win-win from where I'm

1782
01:20:06,159 --> 01:20:09,199
sitting, but was is anybody opposed or

1783
01:20:09,199 --> 01:20:12,000
did you receive any, I guess, concern

1784
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,030
feedback?

1785
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:16,560
» Um, through you, mayor. Thank you, uh,

1786
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:18,320
Councilman Brunie. Uh, there were

1787
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:19,840
definitely great questions that were

1788
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:21,920
brought up during the meetings and a lot

1789
01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:24,239
of them we were expecting because once

1790
01:20:24,239 --> 01:20:26,320
you mentioned any kind of tax, you know,

1791
01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:28,080
we need to clarify that there's no new

1792
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:30,560
tax assessments. Uh, of course when you

1793
01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:32,320
talk about, you know, properties and the

1794
01:20:32,320 --> 01:20:34,000
questions come about, you know, eminent

1795
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:36,000
domain. So, that was addressed. And

1796
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:37,920
then, you know, as we were documenting

1797
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:40,640
some of the conditions out there, uh, a

1798
01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,159
few folks were concerned about, you

1799
01:20:42,159 --> 01:20:43,760
know, potentially having code

1800
01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:45,760
enforcement cases open uh, on their

1801
01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:48,560
behalfs. And so, we're we answered all

1802
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:51,440
the questions. Um, I was in one of the

1803
01:20:51,440 --> 01:20:53,520
uh, meetings on the very first meeting.

1804
01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:55,520
And from that particular meeting, I can

1805
01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:58,080
say that once the conversation was done

1806
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:00,560
that people felt comfortable. Um, Alex,

1807
01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:02,480
if you want to add any other feedback

1808
01:21:02,480 --> 01:21:04,159
from the other two meetings.

1809
01:21:04,159 --> 01:21:06,149
>> I would uh through you, Madame Mayor, I

1810
01:21:06,149 --> 01:21:06,159
» I would uh through you, Madame Mayor, I

1811
01:21:06,159 --> 01:21:10,400
would echo uh Dena's uh comments. Uh

1812
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,440
overall, the residents were generally uh

1813
01:21:13,440 --> 01:21:15,760
curious about the process. Obviously,

1814
01:21:15,760 --> 01:21:17,679
the word redevelopment can be pretty

1815
01:21:17,679 --> 01:21:19,600
intimidating, especially if you're not

1816
01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:21,280
uh familiar with the project. So

1817
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:23,280
overall, the residents were very curious

1818
01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:25,360
and trying to um ask us the right

1819
01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:27,040
questions to learn more about the

1820
01:21:27,040 --> 01:21:30,320
project. But uh personally, I think the

1821
01:21:30,320 --> 01:21:33,440
residents left um feeling pretty um good

1822
01:21:33,440 --> 01:21:36,480
about the project.

1823
01:21:36,480 --> 01:21:39,910
>> Okay. All right. In that case, no action

1824
01:21:39,910 --> 01:21:39,920
» Okay. All right. In that case, no action

1825
01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:43,040
is required on item 26. Is there a

1826
01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:47,520
motion on related items 41A and 41B?

1827
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:53,669
Councilwoman Diaz.

1828
01:21:53,679 --> 01:21:55,440
Yeah, mayor. For the record, Jeff Dorak,

1829
01:21:55,440 --> 01:21:57,280
city attorney. Uh I don't think we have

1830
01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,679
a line in the uh book, but go ahead and

1831
01:21:59,679 --> 01:22:01,199
mention that it is a public hearing and

1832
01:22:01,199 --> 01:22:03,440
if anyone would like to uh comment, this

1833
01:22:03,440 --> 01:22:05,280
would be the time and then you can go

1834
01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:06,480
back to the motion.

1835
01:22:06,480 --> 01:22:09,350
>> All right. Thank you so much. Um this is

1836
01:22:09,350 --> 01:22:09,360
» All right. Thank you so much. Um this is

1837
01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:12,159
a public uh meeting. Does anyone wish to

1838
01:22:12,159 --> 01:22:15,189
comment?

1839
01:22:15,199 --> 01:22:18,239
Seeing no one, I'll entertain a motion.

1840
01:22:18,239 --> 01:22:19,910
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. just give me a

1841
01:22:19,910 --> 01:22:19,920
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. just give me a

1842
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:21,600
few minutes of privilege because this

1843
01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,800
has been a long project in the making

1844
01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,520
and so many hours um that have been

1845
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:30,320
poured and months um in the east side.

1846
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:32,480
So, first and foremost, Alex and Sierra,

1847
01:22:32,480 --> 01:22:35,040
thank you for your diligence and

1848
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,800
ensuring that we are um doing things per

1849
01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:41,520
statute, state statute. Um I want to

1850
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:43,840
thank all the fabulous EUD team because

1851
01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:45,440
I know it takes all of you. You're a

1852
01:22:45,440 --> 01:22:47,840
small but mighty team and um I think

1853
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,159
that without you all we wouldn't be at

1854
01:22:50,159 --> 01:22:53,440
this point. Uh I want to also thank Ramo

1855
01:22:53,440 --> 01:22:55,520
Reyes who stepped in on the very first

1856
01:22:55,520 --> 01:22:57,120
meeting seeing the need for

1857
01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,840
interpretation and without a doubt just

1858
01:22:59,840 --> 01:23:01,600
not knowing all the terms but he was

1859
01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,760
doing the best he could to explain it in

1860
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:05,360
layman's terms to the community that

1861
01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:08,159
turned out and then we got then we

1862
01:23:08,159 --> 01:23:11,120
remembered let's have more things ready

1863
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,360
for our communities because on the east

1864
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:16,159
side we are 70% or more Hispanic Latinos

1865
01:23:16,159 --> 01:23:18,639
so we should be expecting the turnout

1866
01:23:18,639 --> 01:23:20,800
that need language assistance

1867
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:23,040
Um, I want to thank our comm's team who

1868
01:23:23,040 --> 01:23:25,040
didn't miss a beat. Made sure that we

1869
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:27,199
were in sync and we were doing

1870
01:23:27,199 --> 01:23:29,120
everything collectively and also my W

1871
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:30,560
three team. They've been heavily

1872
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:32,239
involved in having conversations with

1873
01:23:32,239 --> 01:23:34,159
EUD, ensuring that the meetings were

1874
01:23:34,159 --> 01:23:35,760
structured and set up in a way that

1875
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:37,600
we're going to be successful. I'm just

1876
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,400
so so excited for this moment because

1877
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:42,639
ever since I was elected, I remember

1878
01:23:42,639 --> 01:23:44,960
going doortodoor on the east side and

1879
01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:48,480
hearing overarching the same concern

1880
01:23:48,480 --> 01:23:51,600
over and over and over. You guys have

1881
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,960
forgotten about us. Our areas are going

1882
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:58,320
downward in a spiral and why aren't we

1883
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,639
like Summerland? Why aren't we like

1884
01:24:00,639 --> 01:24:03,520
other pretty areas of the city? And that

1885
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,320
broke my heart. Um, just thinking about

1886
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,480
them, thinking that we had as a city

1887
01:24:08,480 --> 01:24:12,480
abandoned that area of our city and that

1888
01:24:12,480 --> 01:24:14,480
now that I've been in this role, it's

1889
01:24:14,480 --> 01:24:16,960
just so incredibly difficult to have all

1890
01:24:16,960 --> 01:24:19,600
the financial resources to steer the

1891
01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:22,639
help and to be able to lead change in

1892
01:24:22,639 --> 01:24:24,960
the area and be that spark that is going

1893
01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,159
to then ignite people's interest in

1894
01:24:28,159 --> 01:24:30,560
wanting to invest on that side of town

1895
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:32,719
because increasingly people are having

1896
01:24:32,719 --> 01:24:34,960
to drive. they don't feel comfortable

1897
01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:37,040
going to their neighborhood this or

1898
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:38,800
their neighborhood that or there really

1899
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:40,560
aren't very many options and so they

1900
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:42,719
have to drive distances and we're losing

1901
01:24:42,719 --> 01:24:44,800
that opportunity for those dollars to

1902
01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:47,440
stay within the city and our community.

1903
01:24:47,440 --> 01:24:50,480
So, I'm so so ecstatic that this will

1904
01:24:50,480 --> 01:24:53,360
help us change and move the needle, meet

1905
01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:55,920
the need, heed the call of our neighbors

1906
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:58,159
that are saying, "We want better for

1907
01:24:58,159 --> 01:25:00,159
East Las Vegas." And now this is setting

1908
01:25:00,159 --> 01:25:04,000
up the ability to have the means to then

1909
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,000
execute the vision that is in Westro

1910
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:08,159
Futuro, our future East Las Vegas plan

1911
01:25:08,159 --> 01:25:10,400
that we've adopted as a council in 23.

1912
01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:12,080
We can't really move the needle if we

1913
01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:13,920
don't have the resources behind it. And

1914
01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:16,159
I'm also ecstatic about the education

1915
01:25:16,159 --> 01:25:18,159
set aside funding that we can also tap

1916
01:25:18,159 --> 01:25:21,520
into because we know that my schools on

1917
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:23,600
that side need all the love that we can

1918
01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:25,280
provide them. So with that, I know the

1919
01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:26,800
mayor saying, "Okay, wrap it up.

1920
01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:28,639
Councilwoman, make the motion." So I'm

1921
01:25:28,639 --> 01:25:30,239
going to move to approve agenda items

1922
01:25:30,239 --> 01:25:32,960
41A and B.

1956
01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:36,560
Mayor and Council, uh, you know, uh,

1957
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:38,960
outside of the negotiations related to

1958
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,840
this contract and the official NRS

1959
01:26:41,840 --> 01:26:43,360
statement that I need to enter into the

1960
01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:45,360
record, I just want to take a moment to

1961
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,920
thank a few people and also talk a

1962
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:50,159
little bit about uh, the luck that I had

1963
01:26:50,159 --> 01:26:52,000
over the last couple of months to sit

1964
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:54,239
down with the uh, union leadership

1965
01:26:54,239 --> 01:26:56,960
associated with Local 1285. Uh,

1966
01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:58,800
beginning with Captain Ruben Sanchez

1967
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:00,480
who's in the audience today. I know I

1968
01:27:00,480 --> 01:27:02,880
had a chance to talk to him earlier. Um,

1969
01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:05,199
those are just conversations not related

1970
01:27:05,199 --> 01:27:07,520
to this contract negotiations, just

1971
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:09,199
getting to knew getting to know that

1972
01:27:09,199 --> 01:27:11,040
leadership team. And I think it's fair

1973
01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:13,120
to say we've come away with mutual

1974
01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,000
respect for one another and a uh common

1975
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,080
goal of wanting to see the city be as

1976
01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:20,000
good as it can be. So again, I want to I

1977
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:22,800
want to thank Ruben and uh his team. Uh

1978
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,440
I want to thank uh Chief Gray uh for his

1979
01:27:25,440 --> 01:27:28,880
leadership in LVFR. Um and uh really

1980
01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,440
just the entire LVFR team. Uh it's what

1981
01:27:31,440 --> 01:27:33,280
makes our city a safe city. It's what

1982
01:27:33,280 --> 01:27:34,960
makes our city a city that people want

1983
01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:38,400
to uh live, work, and play in. I also uh

1984
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:40,080
be remiss if I didn't talk about just

1985
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:42,239
the hours and hours and hours of work

1986
01:27:42,239 --> 01:27:45,120
that a contract negotiation involves

1987
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:47,360
amongst so many different uh city

1988
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:50,159
employees. And uh that includes uh

1989
01:27:50,159 --> 01:27:52,880
certainly our uh HR team led by Sue

1990
01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:55,280
Brown, our city attorney's office, from

1991
01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:58,000
Jeff and from Morgan and his team, our

1992
01:27:58,000 --> 01:28:00,159
entire city manager's office, and uh

1993
01:28:00,159 --> 01:28:01,679
certainly our finance department running

1994
01:28:01,679 --> 01:28:03,440
all the numbers and trying to figure out

1995
01:28:03,440 --> 01:28:05,760
how do we uh make all this work. So with

1996
01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:07,920
all those uh thanks and admiration to so

1997
01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:10,239
many uh people involved in this uh what

1998
01:28:10,239 --> 01:28:11,840
I'd like to do is just enter into the

1999
01:28:11,840 --> 01:28:14,239
record the official NRS statement which

2000
01:28:14,239 --> 01:28:17,679
is pursuant to NRS 288153

2001
01:28:17,679 --> 01:28:19,840
as city manager I am reporting on a new

2002
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:22,000
2-year collective bargaining agreement

2003
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:25,679
with IAFF Local 1285. The estimated

2004
01:28:25,679 --> 01:28:28,159
fiscal impact of the two-year agreement

2005
01:28:28,159 --> 01:28:33,669
is not to exceed $16,387,87.

2006
01:28:33,679 --> 01:28:34,960
And with that, I'm going to turn over

2007
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:36,960
the rest of this presentation to Miss

2008
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,760
Sue Brown and uh Morgan.

2009
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:40,709
>> Welcome.

2010
01:28:40,709 --> 01:28:40,719
» Welcome.

2011
01:28:40,719 --> 01:28:41,990
>> Thank you. Good morning, Mayor and

2012
01:28:41,990 --> 01:28:42,000
» Thank you. Good morning, Mayor and

2013
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:44,239
Council. Um before I get started, thank

2014
01:28:44,239 --> 01:28:46,239
you, Mike, for the introduction. Um I

2015
01:28:46,239 --> 01:28:47,920
want to echo Mike's comments and thank

2016
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:49,679
the city's negotiating team, our

2017
01:28:49,679 --> 01:28:51,600
partners in city attorney's office,

2018
01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:54,320
human resources, Rick Hunt, Dana Graham,

2019
01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:56,960
and Tasja Curtis, as well as um Chief

2020
01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:59,120
Larry Stony, and Chief Randall Willbanks

2021
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:02,239
were on the negotiating team.

2022
01:29:02,239 --> 01:29:05,280
So, the item before you today is a

2023
01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:07,120
two-year tenative agreement with the

2024
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:10,400
IIAFF local 1285 bargaining unit. This

2025
01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:12,400
bargaining unit represents approximately

2026
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:15,920
766 employees in the fire department. We

2027
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:18,159
started negotiations back in February of

2028
01:29:18,159 --> 01:29:21,600
2026 and we had a total of 11 meetings

2029
01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:24,560
ending on June 15, 2026 where we did

2030
01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:26,960
reach a tenative agreement. Um, the

2031
01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:28,880
bargaining unit took the contra uh the

2032
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:31,760
TAS to the membership for vote and they

2033
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,199
did vote to approve the two-year

2034
01:29:33,199 --> 01:29:36,080
agreement which covers July 1st, 2026

2035
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:41,189
through June 30th, 2028.

2036
01:29:41,199 --> 01:29:43,040
I'm going to go over some of the changes

2037
01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:44,719
in the contract in order of the

2038
01:29:44,719 --> 01:29:47,520
articles. Um, first is article 15 under

2039
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:50,560
holidays. We are adding a new holiday

2040
01:29:50,560 --> 01:29:52,960
worked premium pay for four protected

2041
01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:55,440
holidays. What this means is the four

2042
01:29:55,440 --> 01:29:57,120
protected holidays that we have listed

2043
01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,440
are Fourth of July, Thanksgiving Day,

2044
01:29:59,440 --> 01:30:01,920
Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. And

2045
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:03,760
basically, we've agreed to give

2046
01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:05,600
additional compensation for employees

2047
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:08,000
who work on these four holidays. In

2048
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:10,800
exchange, we are reducing the number of

2049
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:12,960
um vacation slots available for these

2050
01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:15,840
days. So, currently it's a 12% slots for

2051
01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:18,080
um number of employees who who can be on

2052
01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,560
vacation, and we're reducing that to 6%.

2053
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:22,400
So the intent is, you know, for these

2054
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:24,400
four busy holidays, we're encouraging

2055
01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:26,239
and incentivizing employees to come to

2056
01:30:26,239 --> 01:30:28,560
work on those days.

2057
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,920
Under article 17, wages, um, in year one

2058
01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:35,040
of the contract, effective July 1, 2026,

2059
01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:38,159
we've agreed to a 2.7% cost of living

2060
01:30:38,159 --> 01:30:41,600
adjustment based on the annual CPI from

2061
01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:43,280
2025.

2062
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,600
In addition, we're adding a 2% increase

2063
01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:47,679
to the top step of all the salary

2064
01:30:47,679 --> 01:30:49,679
schedules.

2065
01:30:49,679 --> 01:30:51,679
In year two of the contract, effective

2066
01:30:51,679 --> 01:30:56,639
July 1, 2027, we are doing a CPI based

2067
01:30:56,639 --> 01:30:59,280
cost of living adjustment. Um, the range

2068
01:30:59,280 --> 01:31:02,880
of the CPI is 2% to 3.5%.

2069
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,040
We won't know that CPI until the end of

2070
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:07,760
the current calendar year. And also in

2071
01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:09,920
year two, we're doing the 2% increase to

2072
01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:11,520
the top step of all the salary

2073
01:31:11,520 --> 01:31:16,149
schedules. Once again,

2074
01:31:16,159 --> 01:31:18,480
under article 19, acting pay, we're

2075
01:31:18,480 --> 01:31:21,679
adding a new cash incentive um for

2076
01:31:21,679 --> 01:31:24,639
preceptor certification of $1,000.

2077
01:31:24,639 --> 01:31:26,639
Preceptors are those individuals who are

2078
01:31:26,639 --> 01:31:28,320
more experienced and they are the

2079
01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:31,120
individuals who train and mentor new and

2080
01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:33,520
incoming paramedics. So, this incentive

2081
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:35,600
will encourage more employees to become

2082
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:37,440
preceptors.

2083
01:31:37,440 --> 01:31:39,920
In article 22 under medical, we are

2084
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:42,239
increasing the bi-weekly employer

2085
01:31:42,239 --> 01:31:45,120
contribution by $15 in each of the two

2086
01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:49,030
years.

2087
01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:51,920
Article 28, unifor 23, uniform

2088
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,000
allowance. We are increasing the annual

2089
01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:58,560
uniform allowance from $1,800 to $2,000.

2090
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,280
Article 28, EMS compensation. So, this

2091
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:03,760
is the article that has the most um

2092
01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:06,320
change and in line with our goal of

2093
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:08,239
encouraging more firefighters to become

2094
01:32:08,239 --> 01:32:10,320
paramedics, we've agreed to a new

2095
01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:12,239
compensation model for employees who

2096
01:32:12,239 --> 01:32:14,159
become paramedics.

2097
01:32:14,159 --> 01:32:16,000
So, currently firefighters who become

2098
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:18,639
paramedics move into a separate unique

2099
01:32:18,639 --> 01:32:21,040
classification called firefighter

2100
01:32:21,040 --> 01:32:22,639
paramedic.

2101
01:32:22,639 --> 01:32:24,080
Engineers and captains who are

2102
01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:26,080
paramedics receive additional pay for

2103
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:28,320
maintaining their paramedic license and

2104
01:32:28,320 --> 01:32:30,080
for working as a paramedic when they're

2105
01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:32,639
assigned. Moving forward, we're

2106
01:32:32,639 --> 01:32:34,719
eliminating this separate firefighter

2107
01:32:34,719 --> 01:32:37,360
paramedic rank or title and instead

2108
01:32:37,360 --> 01:32:39,040
we're providing a premium pay to

2109
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:41,280
employees who um achieve and maintain

2110
01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:43,920
their paramedic license. So, what this

2111
01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:46,400
does is this gives the fire department

2112
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:48,639
um greater flexibility to assign

2113
01:32:48,639 --> 01:32:50,320
paramedics where they are needed the

2114
01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:52,639
most and it'll help reduce the unit

2115
01:32:52,639 --> 01:32:55,920
downgrades or brownouts.

2116
01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:59,120
In article 29 under hazmat and TRT,

2117
01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:01,360
similar to the preceptor, we're also

2118
01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:04,560
doing a $1,000 cash incentive for uh

2119
01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:06,400
employees who has hazmat and TRT

2120
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:10,149
certification.

2121
01:33:10,159 --> 01:33:12,719
Um, those are the major articles with

2122
01:33:12,719 --> 01:33:15,360
fiscal impact. We also, um, did some

2123
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:17,440
minor language updates to clean up

2124
01:33:17,440 --> 01:33:19,760
multiple articles. As Mike mentioned,

2125
01:33:19,760 --> 01:33:21,840
the 2-year agreement fiscal impact is

2126
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:27,510
not to exceed 16,387,87.

2127
01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:29,280
The reason why there is a range here is

2128
01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:31,280
because, again, year 2's COLA is still

2129
01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:37,189
to be determined.

2130
01:33:37,199 --> 01:33:40,000
Um, we would like to thank the IIAFF

2131
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:42,639
negotiating team, Ruben Sanchez, Mark

2132
01:33:42,639 --> 01:33:45,440
Sarraosa, Michael Tom, Nicholas Rhodess,

2133
01:33:45,440 --> 01:33:48,239
Estabbon Cruz, and Bull McDougall. Um,

2134
01:33:48,239 --> 01:33:50,400
throughout this entire process, over 11

2135
01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:51,920
meetings, they have been very

2136
01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:54,080
professional, very collaborative,

2137
01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,560
willing to, you know, explore unique and

2138
01:33:56,560 --> 01:33:58,880
creative options for this fire contract.

2139
01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:01,760
And so, thank you to the IFF negotiating

2140
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:03,600
team. And with that, I will take any

2141
01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:06,480
questions. Thank you so much. Uh there

2142
01:34:06,480 --> 01:34:10,960
any uh questions from council members?

2143
01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:13,360
Seeing none,

2144
01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:15,360
is there a motion? Mayor Promab,

2145
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,110
>> I move to approve.

2146
01:34:17,110 --> 01:34:17,120
» I move to approve.

2147
01:34:17,120 --> 01:34:20,470
>> Please vote.

2148
01:34:20,480 --> 01:34:23,750
Post.

2149
01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:26,400
Motion carries. Congratulations for

2150
01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:28,000
this. This is very well done.

2151
01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:28,550
>> Thank you, mayor.

2152

01:35:36,550 --> 01:35:36,560

>> Welcome, and please proceed.

2183
01:35:43,750 --> 01:35:43,760
» Welcome, and please proceed.

2184
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:45,270
>> Good morning, Mayor and Council. Thank

2185
01:35:45,270 --> 01:35:45,280
» Good morning, Mayor and Council. Thank

2186
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,440
you very much. Um, so before you today

2187
01:35:47,440 --> 01:35:49,760
are the two related agenda items.

2188
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:51,520
requesting the denial of a permanent

2189
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:53,600
massage establishment license for Golden

2190
01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:56,960
Tai Spa located at 2251 South Rainbow

2191
01:35:56,960 --> 01:36:00,000
Boulevard and Thai Massage Golden Beauty

2192
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:03,040
located at 5013 Alta Drive. Both

2193
01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:04,800
businesses are owned and operated by

2194
01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:07,760
Miss Yuming Wang. Although these are

2195
01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:09,600
separate businesses, they share the same

2196
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,520
owner and many of the concerns before

2197
01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:13,120
you involve Miss Wang's overall

2198
01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:15,679
management and suitability. On March

2199
01:36:15,679 --> 01:36:18,000
18th, 2025, staff conducted a

2200
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:20,159
pre-licicensing inspection of Golden Tai

2201
01:36:20,159 --> 01:36:22,639
Spa. During the inspection, staff

2202
01:36:22,639 --> 01:36:24,239
observed bedding in the employee

2203
01:36:24,239 --> 01:36:26,400
breakroom, a hallway door equipped with

2204
01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:28,560
an interior lock, and window coverings

2205
01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:30,080
that obstructed the visibility into

2206
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:32,880
portions of the business. Staff returned

2207
01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:34,800
on March 26 and found that the bedding

2208
01:36:34,800 --> 01:36:36,480
remained despite having previously

2209
01:36:36,480 --> 01:36:38,320
discussed the concern with the owner.

2210
01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:39,920
She did move the items into her car

2211
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:42,400
during that inspection. On March 2nd,

2212
01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:44,400
2025, the department issued a temporary

2213
01:36:44,400 --> 01:36:46,080
license with specific operating

2214
01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:48,239
conditions. Those conditions prohibited

2215
01:36:48,239 --> 01:36:50,560
the interior moni monitoring devices,

2216
01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:52,159
prohibited hallway doors from being

2217
01:36:52,159 --> 01:36:53,600
locked, and required an unobstructed

2218
01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:54,800
view from the lobby into the

2219
01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:56,719
establishment.

2220
01:36:56,719 --> 01:36:59,600
On June 17th, 2025, staff conducted

2221
01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:01,360
another inspection. During that

2222
01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:02,719
inspection, the owner and the key

2223
01:37:02,719 --> 01:37:04,960
employee were absent. Staff again found

2224
01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:06,960
the interior locking mechanisms, audio

2225
01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:08,880
and video recording devices inside the

2226
01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:10,320
business, and personal bedding that

2227
01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:12,320
suggested employees may have been

2228
01:37:12,320 --> 01:37:15,040
residing or sleeping on the premises.

2229
01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:17,199
A follow-up inspection on June 18th

2230
01:37:17,199 --> 01:37:18,639
confirmed that those items have been

2231
01:37:18,639 --> 01:37:20,880
removed. Just a week later, on June

2232
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,920
25th, 2025, the Las Vegas Metropolitan

2233
01:37:23,920 --> 01:37:25,199
Police Department conducted an

2234
01:37:25,199 --> 01:37:27,520
undercover vice operation. During that

2235
01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:30,159
operation, an employee, Euang Chen,

2236
01:37:30,159 --> 01:37:32,480
solicited an undercover officer for

2237
01:37:32,480 --> 01:37:35,280
prostitution services um and she was

2238
01:37:35,280 --> 01:37:37,199
arrested. As a result of that incident,

2239
01:37:37,199 --> 01:37:38,639
the department issued a notice of

2240
01:37:38,639 --> 01:37:41,600
violation and assessed a $250 civil fine

2241
01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:45,119
on June 26, 2025. Miss Wang appealed the

2242
01:37:45,119 --> 01:37:46,719
violation, but it was upheld by our

2243
01:37:46,719 --> 01:37:49,280
hearing officer on September 11th, 2025.

2244
01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:52,239
Also on September 11th, 2025, Metro

2245
01:37:52,239 --> 01:37:54,000
completed their suitability review uh

2246
01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:56,000
report identifying the business as an

2247
01:37:56,000 --> 01:37:58,080
area of concern due to the operation the

2248
01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:00,639
prostitution related activities in the

2249
01:38:00,639 --> 01:38:03,040
deficiencies in the management controls.

2250
01:38:03,040 --> 01:38:05,920
On January 13, 2026, the Nevada State

2251
01:38:05,920 --> 01:38:07,840
Board of Massage Therapy placed Miss

2252
01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:09,840
Wing's massage therapy license on a

2253
01:38:09,840 --> 01:38:12,239
2-year probation based on its own

2254
01:38:12,239 --> 01:38:14,320
disciplinary proceedings.

2255
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:16,560
On June 12th, 2026, the department

2256
01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:18,320
participated in a joint undercover

2257
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:20,239
operation with Metro. During that

2258
01:38:20,239 --> 01:38:22,000
operation, an employee solicited an

2259
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,000
undercover detective for prostitution

2260
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:26,320
services. Neither Miss Wing nor the key

2261
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,400
employee were present. The department

2262
01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:30,880
issued another notice of violation with

2263
01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:34,719
fines equaling up to $1,500 and LBMPD

2264
01:38:34,719 --> 01:38:36,400
ordered an emergency closure on the

2265
01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:39,440
business. On June 16th, 2026, the

2266
01:38:39,440 --> 01:38:40,880
department received an updated

2267
01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:42,560
background investigated report from

2268
01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:44,960
Metro and that incorporated the

2269
01:38:44,960 --> 01:38:47,119
prostitution related arrest into the

2270
01:38:47,119 --> 01:38:49,840
licensing review. While staff recognizes

2271
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:51,119
that many of this inspection

2272
01:38:51,119 --> 01:38:52,639
deficiencies were corrected after the

2273
01:38:52,639 --> 01:38:54,480
notice, the department's concerns extend

2274
01:38:54,480 --> 01:38:56,960
beyond the isolated code violations.

2275
01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:59,119
This recommendation is based on the

2276
01:38:59,119 --> 01:39:00,880
totality of this record, including

2277
01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:02,960
repeated management deficiencies,

2278
01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:05,199
failure to maintain required operating

2279
01:39:05,199 --> 01:39:07,199
conditions, prostitution related

2280
01:39:07,199 --> 01:39:08,880
criminal activities occurring occurring

2281
01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:10,880
within the establishment, the subsequent

2282
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:12,880
metro suitability report, and

2283
01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:14,719
disciplinary action taken by the Nevada

2284
01:39:14,719 --> 01:39:16,480
State Massage Board therapy against the

2285
01:39:16,480 --> 01:39:19,119
owner. Because Miss Wang is also the

2286
01:39:19,119 --> 01:39:20,560
owner and managing member of Time

2287
01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:22,960
Massage Golden Beauty, those same

2288
01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:24,639
suitability concerns apply to that

2289
01:39:24,639 --> 01:39:27,119
application as well. Although the

2290
01:39:27,119 --> 01:39:28,480
majority of the violations occurred at

2291
01:39:28,480 --> 01:39:30,320
Golden Spa, the department must evaluate

2292
01:39:30,320 --> 01:39:32,400
the suitability of the applicant, not

2293
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:34,320
simply the location. The temporary

2294
01:39:34,320 --> 01:39:36,639
business license is currently suspended

2295
01:39:36,639 --> 01:39:38,320
based on the documented history and the

2296
01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:40,159
overall suitability of the applicant.

2297
01:39:40,159 --> 01:39:42,159
Staff staff recommends denial of both

2298
01:39:42,159 --> 01:39:43,679
the permanent licenses for both

2299
01:39:43,679 --> 01:39:46,159
establishments. Representatives of Las

2300
01:39:46,159 --> 01:39:47,760
Vegas Metropolitan Police Department are

2301
01:39:47,760 --> 01:39:49,280
here and present if you have any

2302
01:39:49,280 --> 01:39:50,639
questions. Thank you.

2303
01:39:50,639 --> 01:39:53,669
>> Thank you so much. Do either one of you

2304
01:39:53,669 --> 01:39:53,679
» Thank you so much. Do either one of you

2305
01:39:53,679 --> 01:39:57,360
care to make a comment?

2306
01:39:57,360 --> 01:39:59,189
>> Hello, mayor. My name is Michelle Gunn.

2307
01:39:59,189 --> 01:39:59,199
» Hello, mayor. My name is Michelle Gunn.

2308
01:39:59,199 --> 01:40:00,880
I'm an investigative specialist with Las

2309
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:02,880
Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

2310
01:40:02,880 --> 01:40:04,560
I'm the one that drafted the area of

2311
01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:06,960
concerns report and Darcy pretty much

2312
01:40:06,960 --> 01:40:09,040
outlined everything accurately. So, if

2313
01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:10,400
you have any questions, I can answer

2314
01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:11,199
them.

2315
01:40:11,199 --> 01:40:14,070
>> Thank you so much. Um, now I'd like to

2316
01:40:14,070 --> 01:40:14,080
» Thank you so much. Um, now I'd like to

2317
01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:15,760
hear from the applicant.

2318
01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:17,030
>> Thank you. Good morning. Uh, Kirk

2319
01:40:17,030 --> 01:40:17,040
» Thank you. Good morning. Uh, Kirk

2320
01:40:17,040 --> 01:40:19,199
Kennedy, 815 South Pacino Center on

2321
01:40:19,199 --> 01:40:21,440
Council for Miss Yuming Wong. She's

2322
01:40:21,440 --> 01:40:22,880
present today with the assistance of

2323
01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,119
Miss Yan Hei, who's a court-certified

2324
01:40:25,119 --> 01:40:27,280
Mandarin uh, translator for her benefit

2325
01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:28,639
to make sure she understands everything

2326
01:40:28,639 --> 01:40:30,400
today. She does speak English, but I

2327
01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:31,679
think it would be it's a benefit that

2328
01:40:31,679 --> 01:40:33,440
she has the translator. You know, in

2329
01:40:33,440 --> 01:40:35,119
reviewing this matter, you have two

2330
01:40:35,119 --> 01:40:38,080
agenda items. Uh the one regarding Time

2331
01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:39,600
Massage Golden Beauty, that's item

2332
01:40:39,600 --> 01:40:41,920
number 28, has sort of been lumped into

2333
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:44,080
this. Uh you don't see any history of

2334
01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:46,000
violations, no arrests, things of that

2335
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:48,000
type at that location, which I believe

2336
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:51,040
is on Alta Drive. Golden Tai spa is the

2337
01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:52,239
one obviously you're hearing about

2338
01:40:52,239 --> 01:40:54,320
today. It's clear that they were there

2339
01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:57,679
was an arrest activity in 2025 and a

2340
01:40:57,679 --> 01:40:59,440
recent one back here in June. And

2341
01:40:59,440 --> 01:41:01,119
certainly I've talked with Miss Wang

2342
01:41:01,119 --> 01:41:03,119
about what's going on here. She has

2343
01:41:03,119 --> 01:41:04,960
prior experience in in owning and

2344
01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:07,199
operating massage businesses uh in

2345
01:41:07,199 --> 01:41:09,760
Nevada and in other states. So, she

2346
01:41:09,760 --> 01:41:11,280
knows how to do this, right? What's

2347
01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:13,440
going on here? The question is one of

2348
01:41:13,440 --> 01:41:15,760
oversight, supervision. That's the

2349
01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:19,440
issue. She's a minority owner of a of

2350
01:41:19,440 --> 01:41:21,360
two businesses in town, within the city.

2351
01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:22,639
She has another, I believe, within the

2352
01:41:22,639 --> 01:41:25,440
county and in other locations as well.

2353
01:41:25,440 --> 01:41:26,719
She knows how to run these things

2354
01:41:26,719 --> 01:41:28,400
correctly and they can be done the

2355
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,159
correct way. There are many massage

2356
01:41:30,159 --> 01:41:32,159
establishments here in Las Vegas and in

2357
01:41:32,159 --> 01:41:34,000
Clark County and you hear about it in

2358
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:36,320
the news sometimes about a very negative

2359
01:41:36,320 --> 01:41:37,760
image. Well, there are those that that

2360
01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:40,480
are run correctly and can do well and

2361
01:41:40,480 --> 01:41:42,480
provide a valuable service physical

2362
01:41:42,480 --> 01:41:44,639
therapy services to citizens here in our

2363
01:41:44,639 --> 01:41:46,800
community. Uh she is trying to do that.

2364
01:41:46,800 --> 01:41:48,239
What she what happened here with Golden

2365
01:41:48,239 --> 01:41:50,880
Tai, which is agenda item number 29, was

2366
01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:52,800
one of of a complete lack of oversight.

2367
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:54,560
I think she would have to admit and she

2368
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:56,639
has admitted to me that you she was not

2369
01:41:56,639 --> 01:41:58,239
giving it the care and attention she

2370
01:41:58,239 --> 01:42:00,000
needs to give to it. But I think she can

2371
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:02,159
do that. The concern is one of oversight

2372
01:42:02,159 --> 01:42:03,920
and supervision. She can do that. She

2373
01:42:03,920 --> 01:42:06,080
can provide that. She can also do better

2374
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:07,840
about uh making sure that her managers

2375
01:42:07,840 --> 01:42:10,000
and key employees are not only approved

2376
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:11,360
by the city but basically know what

2377
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:13,440
they're doing so they comply with city

2378
01:42:13,440 --> 01:42:15,920
code and Nevada law on the operation of

2379
01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:18,159
a massage establishment. You know, I I

2380
01:42:18,159 --> 01:42:19,920
reviewed the Metro Investigative report

2381
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:21,280
and it's kind of interesting on page

2382
01:42:21,280 --> 01:42:23,199
five of that report where they make the

2383
01:42:23,199 --> 01:42:24,480
recommendation. Of course, they do

2384
01:42:24,480 --> 01:42:26,480
recommend the denial, but in making that

2385
01:42:26,480 --> 01:42:28,159
denial, they they give a statement

2386
01:42:28,159 --> 01:42:29,920
that's entirely contradictory. I'm just

2387
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:32,480
quoting part of it. Uh from page five,

2388
01:42:32,480 --> 01:42:34,080
Metro states, "Until the owner can

2389
01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:36,080
demonstrate meaningful corrective

2390
01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:38,480
action, effective oversight, and

2391
01:42:38,480 --> 01:42:40,320
sustainable measures to prevent future

2392
01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:42,800
violations, uh the end of the quote,

2393
01:42:42,800 --> 01:42:44,880
they would uh basically deny approval."

2394
01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:46,960
But what they're saying there is, you

2395
01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:49,119
know, if she can demonstrate this, if

2396
01:42:49,119 --> 01:42:50,719
she can demonstrate the corrective

2397
01:42:50,719 --> 01:42:53,360
action, the oversight, the supervision,

2398
01:42:53,360 --> 01:42:56,000
then perhaps denial is not appropriate.

2399
01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:58,239
Uh the Metro Report sort of speaks out

2400
01:42:58,239 --> 01:42:59,840
of both sides there because it's saying,

2401
01:42:59,840 --> 01:43:01,520
you know, she could possibly do this and

2402
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:03,679
make this run well and be an effective

2403
01:43:03,679 --> 01:43:05,119
small business person here in our

2404
01:43:05,119 --> 01:43:07,360
community with these two establishments

2405
01:43:07,360 --> 01:43:09,119
within the city if given the

2406
01:43:09,119 --> 01:43:11,040
opportunity. Uh the Metro report says,

2407
01:43:11,040 --> 01:43:12,800
"Yeah, but maybe if she does better and

2408
01:43:12,800 --> 01:43:14,480
provides more oversight, she can do

2409
01:43:14,480 --> 01:43:16,000
better." But then they say that, "But

2410
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:18,000
not this time." How is she supposed to

2411
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:19,360
be more effective? How is she supposed

2412
01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:21,760
to demonstrate this corrective action

2413
01:43:21,760 --> 01:43:23,679
and this ability to provide better

2414
01:43:23,679 --> 01:43:25,280
supervision and to comply with Nevada

2415
01:43:25,280 --> 01:43:26,719
law when she's not being given the

2416
01:43:26,719 --> 01:43:29,119
opportunity? Uh she's being uh what

2417
01:43:29,119 --> 01:43:30,960
we're looking at here is is the city is

2418
01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:32,239
requesting the denial of her

2419
01:43:32,239 --> 01:43:34,000
establishment applications, which

2420
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:35,760
effectively guts what the Metro report

2421
01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:38,239
is saying. They're saying essentially if

2422
01:43:38,239 --> 01:43:40,000
she's given the opportunity, she could

2423
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:42,080
do better and she could show better. She

2424
01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:43,920
can be a better manager. She can be a

2425
01:43:43,920 --> 01:43:46,719
better operator if she can, you know,

2426
01:43:46,719 --> 01:43:49,360
focus herself on doing what is right.

2427
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:50,719
And the Metro report is kind of

2428
01:43:50,719 --> 01:43:51,840
acknowledging that while at the same

2429
01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:53,360
time then saying, "Well, too bad,

2430
01:43:53,360 --> 01:43:55,920
denied." We're asking for an opportunity

2431
01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:59,119
here to allow her to prove to you, to

2432
01:43:59,119 --> 01:44:01,360
this city council, that she can do this

2433
01:44:01,360 --> 01:44:04,239
and she can do it well. Mind you, uh the

2434
01:44:04,239 --> 01:44:05,679
city has lumped in two different

2435
01:44:05,679 --> 01:44:07,600
businesses. Only one is having the the

2436
01:44:07,600 --> 01:44:09,280
problems, but they say, "Oh, well, let's

2437
01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:10,320
just get rid of all of them."

2438
01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:11,360
Apparently, it's something wrong with

2439
01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:13,280
Miss Wong. Well, that's not that's the

2440
01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:15,199
easy answer, but that's not the answer.

2441
01:44:15,199 --> 01:44:16,639
That's the correct answer, the right

2442
01:44:16,639 --> 01:44:19,119
answer. You have a female minority owner

2443
01:44:19,119 --> 01:44:21,040
who's trying to operate these businesses

2444
01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:22,880
in a way that's effective and in

2445
01:44:22,880 --> 01:44:24,719
compliance with city code and Nevada

2446
01:44:24,719 --> 01:44:26,239
law. And she's asking for that

2447
01:44:26,239 --> 01:44:28,400
opportunity. And what I'm asking and and

2448
01:44:28,400 --> 01:44:31,040
this has been a wakeup call for her as

2449
01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:32,960
to okay but here she is standing in

2450
01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:34,159
front of the city council. She never

2451
01:44:34,159 --> 01:44:35,360
believed something like this would

2452
01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:37,840
happen. Uh and she can't believe that h

2453
01:44:37,840 --> 01:44:40,239
these events happened at her spa and she

2454
01:44:40,239 --> 01:44:41,600
knows she has to do better about

2455
01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:43,520
management, about oversight, about

2456
01:44:43,520 --> 01:44:45,920
staffing, uh about making sure that the

2457
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:47,760
people who work there truly understand

2458
01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:50,239
what it means to provide legal lawful

2459
01:44:50,239 --> 01:44:52,560
massage and to not engage in criminal

2460
01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:54,239
activity. She had there are two

2461
01:44:54,239 --> 01:44:56,400
therapists and it can't happen again and

2462
01:44:56,400 --> 01:44:58,320
it won't happen again. What we're asking

2463
01:44:58,320 --> 01:45:00,080
for is an opportunity here today for the

2464
01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:02,320
city council to allow her temporary

2465
01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:04,880
licenses to be reinstated for a period

2466
01:45:04,880 --> 01:45:06,560
of 6 months to a year. Sort of a

2467
01:45:06,560 --> 01:45:09,440
probationary type grant. Uh don't don't

2468
01:45:09,440 --> 01:45:11,280
take action on the permanent license.

2469
01:45:11,280 --> 01:45:13,440
allow her this period of time to prove

2470
01:45:13,440 --> 01:45:15,280
to you to prove to the city to prove to

2471
01:45:15,280 --> 01:45:17,760
business licensing and metro that there

2472
01:45:17,760 --> 01:45:19,360
would be no other violations that she

2473
01:45:19,360 --> 01:45:21,440
can comply with Nevada law and the

2474
01:45:21,440 --> 01:45:23,040
requirements of the Nevada Massage Ward

2475
01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:24,480
as well which has oversight of these

2476
01:45:24,480 --> 01:45:26,320
establishments. So, we're asking for

2477
01:45:26,320 --> 01:45:28,239
that opportunity, give her this window

2478
01:45:28,239 --> 01:45:30,560
of time uh to prove to you that she can

2479
01:45:30,560 --> 01:45:32,159
do well and then we can come back in six

2480
01:45:32,159 --> 01:45:34,239
months or a year or on administrative

2481
01:45:34,239 --> 01:45:36,159
review and address whether a more

2482
01:45:36,159 --> 01:45:37,679
permanent structure to the licensing

2483
01:45:37,679 --> 01:45:39,119
should be granted and that's what we're

2484
01:45:39,119 --> 01:45:41,040
asking for today. Thank you very much.

2485
01:45:41,040 --> 01:45:43,270
>> Thank you so much. Are there any

2486
01:45:43,270 --> 01:45:43,280
» Thank you so much. Are there any

2487
01:45:43,280 --> 01:45:45,280
questions or comments from council

2488
01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:47,600
members?

2489
01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:49,830
>> Uh yes, Miss Pinsky.

2490
01:45:49,830 --> 01:45:49,840
» Uh yes, Miss Pinsky.

2491
01:45:49,840 --> 01:45:51,270
>> Thank you, Madame Mayor. Can't help

2492
01:45:51,270 --> 01:45:51,280
» Thank you, Madame Mayor. Can't help

2493
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:54,000
myself. Uh

2494
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:56,480
this case seems very cut and dry to me.

2495
01:45:56,480 --> 01:45:58,320
Uh we've seen others. Mr. Kennedy, thank

2496
01:45:58,320 --> 01:45:59,679
you for coming. You always do a very

2497
01:45:59,679 --> 01:46:03,119
good job for your uh clients. Uh but

2498
01:46:03,119 --> 01:46:06,000
this one is not like others in the past.

2499
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,719
This one is very clear. government

2500
01:46:08,719 --> 01:46:10,880
resources that have been spent on this

2501
01:46:10,880 --> 01:46:14,560
case already. I would imagine 10,000 100

2502
01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:17,199
thousand plus on monitoring these

2503
01:46:17,199 --> 01:46:20,880
businesses and fully documenting

2504
01:46:20,880 --> 01:46:22,639
the illegal acts that are taking place

2505
01:46:22,639 --> 01:46:28,470
here. Uh I don't have uh

2506
01:46:28,480 --> 01:46:31,199
any patience for businesses that conduct

2507
01:46:31,199 --> 01:46:34,000
prostitution and and probably human

2508
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:37,280
trafficking. And uh I hope that this

2509
01:46:37,280 --> 01:46:41,920
body really takes this specific case

2510
01:46:41,920 --> 01:46:44,719
very seriously and that we do everything

2511
01:46:44,719 --> 01:46:47,119
we can to prevent this business from

2512
01:46:47,119 --> 01:46:49,119
coming back. Sometimes these businesses

2513
01:46:49,119 --> 01:46:51,040
are like whack-a-ole. We close one and

2514
01:46:51,040 --> 01:46:53,360
it pops up in a different version or uh

2515
01:46:53,360 --> 01:46:54,800
with a different ownership somewhere

2516
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:59,520
else. Uh if we can use this case as fuel

2517
01:46:59,520 --> 01:47:02,560
for us to ensure that this ecosystem is

2518
01:47:02,560 --> 01:47:07,360
truly um stopped, I'm I'm all ears on

2519
01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:09,360
how we can make it better. But uh very

2520
01:47:09,360 --> 01:47:10,960
little sympathy when you get to this

2521
01:47:10,960 --> 01:47:15,760
part, this case, the time to uh

2522
01:47:15,760 --> 01:47:17,600
change the way you do business is a year

2523
01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:20,320
ago, is two years ago. We are well

2524
01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:23,040
beyond that where the government has got

2525
01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,520
a substantial case against you all

2526
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:28,560
documented. There is no reason for us to

2527
01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:31,360
to do anything else other than to revoke

2528
01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:32,480
this license.

2529
01:47:32,480 --> 01:47:33,990
>> Thank you so much. Miss Summers

2530
01:47:33,990 --> 01:47:34,000
» Thank you so much. Miss Summers

2531
01:47:34,000 --> 01:47:38,229
Armstrong, did you wish to speak?

2532
01:47:38,239 --> 01:47:40,159
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. I think my uh

2533
01:47:40,159 --> 01:47:42,960
colleague has um said it very well. I

2534
01:47:42,960 --> 01:47:44,800
would love to hear from my colleague

2535
01:47:44,800 --> 01:47:48,480
from um Ward 2 where this business is

2536
01:47:48,480 --> 01:47:50,960
housed one, I'm sorry, where this

2537
01:47:50,960 --> 01:47:53,520
business is housed. Um I'll just say

2538
01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:57,199
from my own perspective that um we have

2539
01:47:57,199 --> 01:48:01,040
a real issue in our community um with uh

2540
01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:04,000
human trafficking and we have a real

2541
01:48:04,000 --> 01:48:06,400
issue in our community with illegal

2542
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:08,080
prostitution.

2543
01:48:08,080 --> 01:48:09,600
And

2544
01:48:09,600 --> 01:48:12,080
I don't have a lot of patience for it

2545
01:48:12,080 --> 01:48:15,600
because I see what the result is. We

2546
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:19,840
have um organizations that are housed

2547
01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:22,320
within Ward Five that are trying to

2548
01:48:22,320 --> 01:48:24,800
provide supportive services for women

2549
01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:27,679
and young women and young people who

2550
01:48:27,679 --> 01:48:30,560
fall prey to this kind of behavior. And

2551
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:35,199
undoing the damage costs us so much

2552
01:48:35,199 --> 01:48:37,760
money and time.

2553
01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:40,159
when people have been harmed in these

2554
01:48:40,159 --> 01:48:44,080
types of of activities and

2555
01:48:44,080 --> 01:48:46,960
um we we don't have the we don't have

2556
01:48:46,960 --> 01:48:49,199
the time or resources to continue to try

2557
01:48:49,199 --> 01:48:52,800
and pull people along when we already

2558
01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:56,080
are very clear that these activities are

2559
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:59,280
not allowed and um I would like to hear

2560
01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:02,560
what my colleague in Ward one has to say

2561
01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:05,280
but I'm really concerned and don't have

2562
01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:07,440
a lot of patience for

2563
01:49:07,440 --> 01:49:09,440
Thank you so much. Before we hear from

2564
01:49:09,440 --> 01:49:13,679
Councilman Kenudson, Miss Kelly.

2565
01:49:13,679 --> 01:49:16,470
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. Um I've got a

2566
01:49:16,470 --> 01:49:16,480
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. Um I've got a

2567
01:49:16,480 --> 01:49:19,280
question that may be more appropriately

2568
01:49:19,280 --> 01:49:23,840
answered by staff. The um representative

2569
01:49:23,840 --> 01:49:30,960
for the business has said that uh um

2570
01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:34,080
Miss Swang, is that correct?

2571
01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:36,400
is a minority investor, but I thought I

2572
01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:40,000
read that she owned 100% the documents,

2573
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:42,080
100% of the business in our

2574
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:44,149
>> She's a minority investor.

2575
01:49:44,149 --> 01:49:44,159
» She's a minority investor.

2576
01:49:44,159 --> 01:49:46,070
>> I meant as a as her status as a as an

2577
01:49:46,070 --> 01:49:46,080
» I meant as a as her status as a as an

2578
01:49:46,080 --> 01:49:48,719
Asian Asian-American

2579
01:49:48,719 --> 01:49:51,030
>> Okay. I thought I thought she was a a

2580
01:49:51,030 --> 01:49:51,040
» Okay. I thought I thought she was a a

2581
01:49:51,040 --> 01:49:53,600
minority holder in the business. Okay.

2582
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:56,239
Um, you know, I would like to address

2583
01:49:56,239 --> 01:49:59,360
the comments of, um, sir, of your

2584
01:49:59,360 --> 01:50:02,080
comments as someone who spent a good

2585
01:50:02,080 --> 01:50:04,000
portion of my early career representing

2586
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:08,880
the business community. Um, you know, I

2587
01:50:08,880 --> 01:50:13,280
took I I took this um very very

2588
01:50:13,280 --> 01:50:17,760
seriously. and your point about um I

2589
01:50:17,760 --> 01:50:20,159
disagree with your point about her

2590
01:50:20,159 --> 01:50:23,679
deserving to have a chance because she

2591
01:50:23,679 --> 01:50:26,239
had that chance. Uh she had it with the

2592
01:50:26,239 --> 01:50:27,920
pre-insspection

2593
01:50:27,920 --> 01:50:31,280
uh in March 18th before the license was

2594
01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:34,880
issued uh when there were uh pillows and

2595
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:39,040
blankets in a break room um in a hallway

2596
01:50:39,040 --> 01:50:42,080
door with an interior lock. She had that

2597
01:50:42,080 --> 01:50:45,600
option a week later for a reinspection

2598
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:47,920
and the pillows and the blankets were

2599
01:50:47,920 --> 01:50:52,080
still present. uh beginning of April, uh

2600
01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:54,159
her temporary business license was

2601
01:50:54,159 --> 01:50:57,040
issued with the following conditions

2602
01:50:57,040 --> 01:50:59,199
uh about the use of video monitoring

2603
01:50:59,199 --> 01:51:03,199
devices uh about me massage rooms being

2604
01:51:03,199 --> 01:51:06,239
fitted with locks and and not covering

2605
01:51:06,239 --> 01:51:09,040
or blocking or otherwise disruption

2606
01:51:09,040 --> 01:51:13,679
um to the facility. And then uh the 17th

2607
01:51:13,679 --> 01:51:15,840
she was found in violation due to a key

2608
01:51:15,840 --> 01:51:17,760
employee or owner not being on the

2609
01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:21,760
premises. And then on the 25th of June

2610
01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:24,560
uh the vice operation was conducted um

2611
01:51:24,560 --> 01:51:27,280
while she and she was present there. I

2612
01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:30,800
could go on and on but the point which

2613
01:51:30,800 --> 01:51:33,760
and I agree certainly with my colleagues

2614
01:51:33,760 --> 01:51:36,560
on the tragedy of human human

2615
01:51:36,560 --> 01:51:38,320
trafficking.

2616
01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:41,760
But I would be uh

2617
01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:45,360
I I I am a gasast at how many options

2618
01:51:45,360 --> 01:51:49,520
she was given uh and the the continuing

2619
01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:52,400
failure to live up during a time where

2620
01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:54,960
she could have proved herself to be

2621
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:58,400
adept at managing the business. Uh, and

2622
01:51:58,400 --> 01:52:00,400
I think it would be a mistake for the

2623
01:52:00,400 --> 01:52:03,280
city to extend that opportunity again.

2624
01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:04,080
Thank you.

2625
01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:08,950
>> Thank you, Miss Kelly. Uh, Mr. Canudson,

2626
01:52:08,950 --> 01:52:08,960
» Thank you, Miss Kelly. Uh, Mr. Canudson,

2627
01:52:08,960 --> 01:52:10,149
>> thank you, Madam Mayor, and I appreciate

2628
01:52:10,149 --> 01:52:10,159
» thank you, Madam Mayor, and I appreciate

2629
01:52:10,159 --> 01:52:11,440
the comments up here and I appreciate

2630
01:52:11,440 --> 01:52:14,320
the presentations uh at the dis. Uh just

2631
01:52:14,320 --> 01:52:16,239
for some I guess colorful background,

2632
01:52:16,239 --> 01:52:17,920
I've I have probably a whole bunch of

2633
01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:19,840
massage massage establishments in Ward

2634
01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:21,840
One, like maybe the most. It's not

2635
01:52:21,840 --> 01:52:23,199
something that I'm most proud of, but it

2636
01:52:23,199 --> 01:52:25,520
is probably true. And I generally I meet

2637
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:26,960
with every single person that comes in

2638
01:52:26,960 --> 01:52:29,119
for a license. They sit in my office and

2639
01:52:29,119 --> 01:52:30,480
because of the challenges we have in our

2640
01:52:30,480 --> 01:52:32,080
community, I do ask them if they are

2641
01:52:32,080 --> 01:52:34,159
going to engage in any illegal activity.

2642
01:52:34,159 --> 01:52:36,000
Uh it's a very useful or it's a very

2643
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:37,440
useful conversation I have and I have it

2644
01:52:37,440 --> 01:52:39,360
every single time uh with the commitment

2645
01:52:39,360 --> 01:52:41,199
in my couch saying, "Nope, I'm not going

2646
01:52:41,199 --> 01:52:42,560
to do that." And I say if you do do

2647
01:52:42,560 --> 01:52:44,159
that, this is what's going to happen. We

2648
01:52:44,159 --> 01:52:46,480
had that conversation. Uh and so Miss

2649
01:52:46,480 --> 01:52:48,320
Adabihard, could we just go over some of

2650
01:52:48,320 --> 01:52:49,280
the things you said because I think

2651
01:52:49,280 --> 01:52:51,840
they're most relevant in this case. Um

2652
01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:54,639
kind of highlight the massage licensing

2653
01:52:54,639 --> 01:52:56,960
board. They've they have actions against

2654
01:52:56,960 --> 01:52:58,719
the applicant as well. Can you highlight

2655
01:52:58,719 --> 01:52:59,360
what that is?

2656
01:52:59,360 --> 01:53:02,310
>> Um yeah. So we were just notified um a

2657
01:53:02,310 --> 01:53:02,320
» Um yeah. So we were just notified um a

2658
01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:03,760
couple weeks ago that they did take

2659
01:53:03,760 --> 01:53:06,080
action against um her license uh in

2660
01:53:06,080 --> 01:53:07,599
January of this year. And so she is on

2661
01:53:07,599 --> 01:53:09,599
probationary status with that. don't

2662
01:53:09,599 --> 01:53:11,760
have further details exactly what those

2663
01:53:11,760 --> 01:53:14,159
actions are. Um, but we do have that

2664
01:53:14,159 --> 01:53:14,719
information.

2665
01:53:14,719 --> 01:53:16,229
>> So, we have one board that's uh

2666
01:53:16,229 --> 01:53:16,239
» So, we have one board that's uh

2667
01:53:16,239 --> 01:53:17,840
initiated an action against the

2668
01:53:17,840 --> 01:53:19,679
applicant. Uh, the hearing officer has

2669
01:53:19,679 --> 01:53:23,040
also heard the uh claims against the

2670
01:53:23,040 --> 01:53:24,639
applicant and the hearing officer upheld

2671
01:53:24,639 --> 01:53:25,360
those claims.

2672
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:27,669
>> Yes. So, she um there was the

2673
01:53:27,669 --> 01:53:27,679
» Yes. So, she um there was the

2674
01:53:27,679 --> 01:53:30,560
prostitution uh solicitation last year.

2675
01:53:30,560 --> 01:53:33,280
Um she was uh before the our hearing

2676
01:53:33,280 --> 01:53:35,360
officer to dispute the fines that were

2677
01:53:35,360 --> 01:53:36,480
associated with that because there was

2678
01:53:36,480 --> 01:53:39,679
no closure. um those were upheld. Uh she

2679
01:53:39,679 --> 01:53:41,520
did come and explain to us exactly the

2680
01:53:41,520 --> 01:53:43,679
same thing that she was it wasn't her,

2681
01:53:43,679 --> 01:53:45,280
it was her employee. She'll manage it

2682
01:53:45,280 --> 01:53:46,800
better and we give her another chance

2683
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:48,960
and here we are again a year later.

2684
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:50,470
>> And then just could you highlight what a

2685
01:53:50,470 --> 01:53:50,480
» And then just could you highlight what a

2686
01:53:50,480 --> 01:53:52,560
this is a privilege license? Can you

2687
01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:53,679
highlight what a privilege license

2688
01:53:53,679 --> 01:53:55,920
means? So, a privilege license is going

2689
01:53:55,920 --> 01:54:00,000
to have um more um more to it that they

2690
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:01,679
have to go through a background check in

2691
01:54:01,679 --> 01:54:03,679
um investigation through Metro because

2692
01:54:03,679 --> 01:54:07,760
it's um it's higher it's like a higher

2693
01:54:07,760 --> 01:54:10,239
what's the word uh

2694
01:54:10,239 --> 01:54:12,629
>> for the welfare of the city it's a yeah

2695
01:54:12,629 --> 01:54:12,639
» for the welfare of the city it's a yeah

2696
01:54:12,639 --> 01:54:15,119
um so they have to be able to pass that

2697
01:54:15,119 --> 01:54:17,920
suitability there's a financial review

2698
01:54:17,920 --> 01:54:20,400
um there are extra conditions that are

2699
01:54:20,400 --> 01:54:22,800
added to the license uh because we found

2700
01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:24,880
you know these ones to be um at that

2701
01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:26,719
that privileged state. And so this one

2702
01:54:26,719 --> 01:54:28,560
is one of those licenses.

2703
01:54:28,560 --> 01:54:29,910
>> Thank you. And then one last question.

2704
01:54:29,910 --> 01:54:29,920
» Thank you. And then one last question.

2705
01:54:29,920 --> 01:54:32,239
You made a point that these licenses

2706
01:54:32,239 --> 01:54:33,840
aren't based on the location or the

2707
01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:35,360
business type. This is based on the

2708
01:54:35,360 --> 01:54:36,960
suitability of the applicant. Is that

2709
01:54:36,960 --> 01:54:37,440
accurate?

2710
01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:38,870
>> That is correct. Yes, it is a

2711
01:54:38,870 --> 01:54:38,880
» That is correct. Yes, it is a

2712
01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:40,880
suitability report Metro is providing as

2713
01:54:40,880 --> 01:54:42,320
well. They do their deep dive

2714
01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:44,800
investigation and it is on the person.

2715
01:54:44,800 --> 01:54:46,880
Um the fact that she has two businesses

2716
01:54:46,880 --> 01:54:48,960
in the city um at the same time in the

2717
01:54:48,960 --> 01:54:51,119
same status, we felt this makes the most

2718
01:54:51,119 --> 01:54:51,920
sense.

2719
01:54:51,920 --> 01:54:53,270
>> Thank you. And I know we have metro

2720
01:54:53,270 --> 01:54:53,280
» Thank you. And I know we have metro

2721
01:54:53,280 --> 01:54:54,960
representatives here. I've been on one

2722
01:54:54,960 --> 01:54:56,320
of the sting operations. I'm really

2723
01:54:56,320 --> 01:54:57,440
grateful for the fact that we're

2724
01:54:57,440 --> 01:54:59,119
partnered with law enforcement in these

2725
01:54:59,119 --> 01:55:01,119
types of activities. Uh for my

2726
01:55:01,119 --> 01:55:02,639
colleagues and for anybody's watching,

2727
01:55:02,639 --> 01:55:03,760
if you walk into one of these

2728
01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:05,119
establishments and you see sleeping

2729
01:55:05,119 --> 01:55:07,520
quarters in the back of a closet, it uh

2730
01:55:07,520 --> 01:55:10,239
implies something detrimental to not

2731
01:55:10,239 --> 01:55:11,840
only the individuals there, but to the

2732
01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:13,840
community around it. So uh given all

2733
01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:15,199
that information, if you're ready for a

2734
01:55:15,199 --> 01:55:16,800
motion, Madame Mayor, I'm ready to make

2735
01:55:16,800 --> 01:55:17,199
it.

2736
01:55:17,199 --> 01:55:19,910
>> I will entertain a motion on item 28.

2737
01:55:19,910 --> 01:55:19,920
» I will entertain a motion on item 28.

2738
01:55:19,920 --> 01:55:21,840
Madame Mayor, I move to approve staff's

2739
01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:24,639
recommendation and deny the the license

2740
01:55:24,639 --> 01:55:26,320

01:55:28,229 --> 01:55:28,239

» Um before you vote, I'm sorry, really

2745
01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:33,119
quick. Um yeah. Um I think uh

2746
01:55:33,119 --> 01:55:35,040
Councilwoman wanted to have a time

2747
01:55:35,040 --> 01:55:36,639
frame. Normally there is a one-year

2748
01:55:36,639 --> 01:55:38,800
cooling off period. Um but I'm not sure

2749
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:42,080
if we wanted to extend that beyond that.

2750
01:55:42,080 --> 01:55:43,750

cooling off period if there's a denial

2760
01:56:00,719 --> 01:56:02,639
of the application. So by default within

01:56:02,639 --> 01:56:04,880

01:57:18,960 --> 01:57:20,000

01:57:21,679 --> 01:57:23,280
like to have, uh, the city attorney's

2803
01:57:23,280 --> 01:57:26,000
office undergraduate intern, Haley

2804
01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:28,880
Burgerer, read the bills today. Haley is

2805
01:57:28,880 --> 01:57:31,520
going to be a junior at Washington

2806
01:57:31,520 --> 01:57:33,599
University in St. Louis. Uh, when she

2807
01:57:33,599 --> 01:57:35,520
returns to school, she's a dual major

2808
01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:37,280
there in political science and

2809
01:57:37,280 --> 01:57:39,679
organization and strategic management.

2810
01:57:39,679 --> 01:57:41,360
Um, she spends some hours each week

2811
01:57:41,360 --> 01:57:43,119
during the summer at our office and

2812
01:57:43,119 --> 01:57:45,280
she's also interning with the UNLV

2813
01:57:45,280 --> 01:57:46,800
women's basketball team. So, I think

2814
01:57:46,800 --> 01:57:48,159
we're going to have trouble competing

2815
01:57:48,159 --> 01:57:50,480
with them, but we'll do our best. Um,

2816
01:57:50,480 --> 01:57:52,239
maybe give her a Jimmy John sandwich.

2817
01:57:52,239 --> 01:57:54,739
That might help. So, uh, but yeah,

>> Would you care to tell us about the

2910
02:02:07,589 --> 02:02:07,599
» Would you care to tell us about the

02:02:17,520 --> 02:02:21,040
Kenudson on Monday. Um and I think we

2917
02:02:21,040 --> 02:02:23,920
have a few things to talk about. Um but

2918
02:02:23,920 --> 02:02:26,159
it is it is its second extension of

2919
02:02:26,159 --> 02:02:30,000
time. Uh it was originally entitled with

2920
02:02:30,000 --> 02:02:33,119
um another owner and then it was sold

2921
02:02:33,119 --> 02:02:36,000
and now um this owner is applying for

2922
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:38,400
his second extension.

2923
02:02:38,400 --> 02:02:41,119
So, I I'm here to answer any questions.

2924
02:02:41,119 --> 02:02:42,870
>> Thank you so much. May I have a staff

2925
02:02:42,870 --> 02:02:42,880
» Thank you so much. May I have a staff

2926
02:02:42,880 --> 02:02:43,920
report, please?

2927
02:02:43,920 --> 02:02:45,510
>> Yes, madam mayor. Peter Lonesstein for

2928
02:02:45,510 --> 02:02:45,520
» Yes, madam mayor. Peter Lonesstein for

2929
02:02:45,520 --> 02:02:47,119
the record. Commercial zoning and land

2930
02:02:47,119 --> 02:02:48,719
use in the vicinity of the site have

2931
02:02:48,719 --> 02:02:50,639
remained stable since the original

2932
02:02:50,639 --> 02:02:52,400
approval and the adjacent mixeduse and

2933
02:02:52,400 --> 02:02:54,080
commercial properties have been built

2934
02:02:54,080 --> 02:02:56,159
out. The project as approved remains

2935
02:02:56,159 --> 02:02:57,520
appropriate for the site and staff

2936
02:02:57,520 --> 02:02:59,199
therefore recommends approval of the

2937
02:02:59,199 --> 02:03:00,880
request. Thank you.

2938
02:03:00,880 --> 02:03:02,870
>> Thank you so much. Are there any

2939
02:03:02,870 --> 02:03:02,880
» Thank you so much. Are there any

2940
02:03:02,880 --> 02:03:05,520
additional conditions?

2941
02:03:05,520 --> 02:03:08,400
Uh, Madame Mayor, once the councilman

2942
02:03:08,400 --> 02:03:10,639
addresses uh the application, I may have

2943
02:03:10,639 --> 02:03:13,280
some uh amendments to make. Thank you.

2944
02:03:13,280 --> 02:03:17,510
>> All right. In that case, um Mr. Kudson

2945
02:03:17,510 --> 02:03:17,520
» All right. In that case, um Mr. Kudson

2946
02:03:17,520 --> 02:03:20,400
and but then we'll ask for comment from

2947
02:03:20,400 --> 02:03:22,159
but I think we want to hear what you

2948
02:03:22,159 --> 02:03:22,880
have to say.

2949
02:03:22,880 --> 02:03:24,149
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. And we had this

2950
02:03:24,149 --> 02:03:24,159
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. And we had this

2951
02:03:24,159 --> 02:03:25,360
conversation on Monday, so I'm just

2952
02:03:25,360 --> 02:03:27,040
going to highlight the the most

2953
02:03:27,040 --> 02:03:29,119
important parts. Uh so this this part of

2954
02:03:29,119 --> 02:03:31,119
the parcel which is that larger old

2955
02:03:31,119 --> 02:03:33,280
Fenture Jones parcel was part of the

2956
02:03:33,280 --> 02:03:35,360
agreement that allowed for Nevada Hand

2957
02:03:35,360 --> 02:03:37,199
and George Cakus to build out the

2958
02:03:37,199 --> 02:03:42,159
multifamily and uh senior uh income or

2959
02:03:42,159 --> 02:03:44,080
senior lower income properties on that

2960
02:03:44,080 --> 02:03:46,000
site. They're highly successful. Part of

2961
02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:48,239
our negotiations in those in those

2962
02:03:48,239 --> 02:03:50,400
projects was allowing for a self-

2963
02:03:50,400 --> 02:03:52,000
storage site to go on that property

2964
02:03:52,000 --> 02:03:53,920
which was in question right now. I never

2965
02:03:53,920 --> 02:03:55,119
thought it was a great idea to put a

2966
02:03:55,119 --> 02:03:56,880
self- storage site there, but it allowed

2967
02:03:56,880 --> 02:04:00,560
for 460 affordable units to go in and I

2968
02:04:00,560 --> 02:04:02,480
think is a betterment for the community.

2969
02:04:02,480 --> 02:04:05,119
That being said, um because the the

2970
02:04:05,119 --> 02:04:07,840
property has been sold and while this is

2971
02:04:07,840 --> 02:04:09,520
two years for the current owner, this is

2972
02:04:09,520 --> 02:04:12,480
now seven years for me. And so I suggest

2973
02:04:12,480 --> 02:04:14,880
that we do one-year extension of time

2974
02:04:14,880 --> 02:04:16,960
with the condition that if there are no

2975
02:04:16,960 --> 02:04:18,639
activity with the city at all in one

2976
02:04:18,639 --> 02:04:19,840
year, that this would be the last

2977
02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:22,639
extension of time. That being said, also

2978
02:04:22,639 --> 02:04:24,960
uh I know things take time and so in six

2979
02:04:24,960 --> 02:04:26,239
months if you're going through the plan

2980
02:04:26,239 --> 02:04:27,920
review for the not plan review but the

2981
02:04:27,920 --> 02:04:29,280
building inspection process and the

2982
02:04:29,280 --> 02:04:31,199
water district and the the gas company

2983
02:04:31,199 --> 02:04:32,880
and all those things are happening then

2984
02:04:32,880 --> 02:04:34,719
I'd be happy to extend it longer if

2985
02:04:34,719 --> 02:04:36,639
needed. But if there's zero activity,

2986
02:04:36,639 --> 02:04:38,880
which now in my in my time frame there's

2987
02:04:38,880 --> 02:04:40,800
been five years of zero activity, then

2988
02:04:40,800 --> 02:04:42,480
the next time you come back for here, I

2989
02:04:42,480 --> 02:04:43,920
would say there's no more extensions of

2990
02:04:43,920 --> 02:04:46,000
time. So, the condition that Peter will

2991
02:04:46,000 --> 02:04:48,000
hopefully help me with is a one-year

2992
02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:49,840
extension of time with the with the

2993
02:04:49,840 --> 02:04:51,119
trust that you're going to start working

2994
02:04:51,119 --> 02:04:52,800
on this project as quickly as possible

2995
02:04:52,800 --> 02:04:54,400
and within that one year have something

2996
02:04:54,400 --> 02:04:56,000
going through the system.

2997
02:04:56,000 --> 02:04:58,629
>> Right. Yeah, we we spoke with the owner

2998
02:04:58,629 --> 02:04:58,639
» Right. Yeah, we we spoke with the owner

2999
02:04:58,639 --> 02:05:01,920
about it and he's ready to go. Um, and

3000
02:05:01,920 --> 02:05:04,960
it would be from one year from today to

3001
02:05:04,960 --> 02:05:07,840
have some sort of building permit or

3002
02:05:07,840 --> 02:05:11,360
some permit in in play. Ideally, it's

3003
02:05:11,360 --> 02:05:12,719
under construction, but yes,

3004
02:05:12,719 --> 02:05:15,430
>> we we we we would try. We'll try.

3005
02:05:15,430 --> 02:05:15,440
» we we we we would try. We'll try.

3006
02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:16,629
>> Okay. Peter, can you make me sound

3007
02:05:16,629 --> 02:05:16,639
» Okay. Peter, can you make me sound

3008
02:05:16,639 --> 02:05:17,520
smarter?

3009
02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:19,510
>> Sure. So, just for clarification, it's

3010
02:05:19,510 --> 02:05:19,520
» Sure. So, just for clarification, it's

3011
02:05:19,520 --> 02:05:23,280
from the date the entitlement um

3012
02:05:23,280 --> 02:05:24,960
was approved. It's not from today's

3013
02:05:24,960 --> 02:05:27,440
action. It's from the the the original

3014
02:05:27,440 --> 02:05:30,400
approvals date, which will be May 18th.

3015
02:05:30,400 --> 02:05:32,080
Uh but I will read the amended

3016
02:05:32,080 --> 02:05:33,760
condition. So it would be amended

3017
02:05:33,760 --> 02:05:36,080
condition of approval number one of

3018
02:05:36,080 --> 02:05:38,159
26-0249

3019
02:05:38,159 --> 02:05:43,599
EOT1, EOT2 and EOT3 to read as follows.

3020
02:05:43,599 --> 02:05:46,719
This approval shall expire on May 18th,

3021
02:05:46,719 --> 02:05:49,360
2027 unless an extension of time is

3022
02:05:49,360 --> 02:05:52,320
approved by the city of Las Vegas. And

3023
02:05:52,320 --> 02:05:53,760
that's how I would read it with the

3024
02:05:53,760 --> 02:05:55,599
understanding that if there is zero

3025
02:05:55,599 --> 02:05:57,520
activity at that point that will be made

3026
02:05:57,520 --> 02:05:59,679
known as part of any extension of time

3027
02:05:59,679 --> 02:06:02,960
request um that would be made and you

3028
02:06:02,960 --> 02:06:05,599
take your action at that time.

3029
02:06:05,599 --> 02:06:08,229
>> Yeah, I I know we can definitely submit

3030
02:06:08,229 --> 02:06:08,239
» Yeah, I I know we can definitely submit

3031
02:06:08,239 --> 02:06:10,080
for a building permit by then. I don't

3032
02:06:10,080 --> 02:06:12,719
know if we'll have our permit in hand

3033
02:06:12,719 --> 02:06:14,960
because sometimes with the civil reviews

3034
02:06:14,960 --> 02:06:18,080
it'll take it can take up to a year. But

3035
02:06:18,080 --> 02:06:20,080
as long as you're okay with us getting

3036
02:06:20,080 --> 02:06:22,800
at least the building permit submitted,

3037

» Yes. Thank you, Mayor Seth Floyd. For

3198
02:13:20,719 --> 02:13:22,719
the record, staff finds that the lack of

3199
02:13:22,719 --> 02:13:24,560
sufficient on-site parking may lead to

3200
02:13:24,560 --> 02:13:26,800
on-site vehicular circulation conflicts

3201
02:13:26,800 --> 02:13:28,719
and the lack of landscape materials only

3202
02:13:28,719 --> 02:13:30,320
will only contribute to the heat island

3203
02:13:30,320 --> 02:13:32,239
effect, which is in direct conflict with

3204
02:13:32,239 --> 02:13:34,719
the 2050 master plan and therefore staff

3205
02:13:34,719 --> 02:13:36,320
is recommending denial of both the

3206
02:13:36,320 --> 02:13:37,599

3207
02:13:37,599 --> 02:13:38,800

02:13:52,480 --> 02:13:55,520
Miss Summers Armstrong.

3215
02:13:55,520 --> 02:13:57,430
>> Thank you, Madame Mayor. And, uh, thank

3216
02:13:57,430 --> 02:13:57,440
» Thank you, Madame Mayor. And, uh, thank

3217
02:13:57,440 --> 02:13:59,920
you so much, sir, for coming down today.

3218
02:13:59,920 --> 02:14:02,159
Uh, this is a tough one for me, as you

3219
02:14:02,159 --> 02:14:06,000
well know. Um, we are doing our best to

3220
02:14:06,000 --> 02:14:09,679
get infill. Um, and my understanding

3221
02:14:09,679 --> 02:14:13,360
from staff is that this was a county um,

3222
02:14:13,360 --> 02:14:15,679
uh, in the county previously and they

3223
02:14:15,679 --> 02:14:20,480
had different rules for um, a use under

3224
02:14:20,480 --> 02:14:23,119
their terms and now we at the city have

3225
02:14:23,119 --> 02:14:24,560
these rules where we're trying to

3226
02:14:24,560 --> 02:14:28,079
address heat island and circulation and

3227
02:14:28,079 --> 02:14:31,440
just be thoughtful. But then I have to

3228
02:14:31,440 --> 02:14:36,639
weigh this against leaving this an empty

3229
02:14:36,639 --> 02:14:38,560
space.

3230
02:14:38,560 --> 02:14:42,639
Um it is tough. But I um I just want to

3231
02:14:42,639 --> 02:14:44,560
mention a couple things. First of all,

3232
02:14:44,560 --> 02:14:47,599
you were very uh attentive and came in a

3233
02:14:47,599 --> 02:14:49,760
couple of times to talk to us about

3234
02:14:49,760 --> 02:14:52,480
adding trees. And do you have any other

3235
02:14:52,480 --> 02:14:54,480
pictures that you can share with us? Did

3236
02:14:54,480 --> 02:14:56,159
you bring anything in the

3237
02:14:56,159 --> 02:14:57,910
>> I didn't. I just have the actual

3238
02:14:57,910 --> 02:14:57,920
» I didn't. I just have the actual

3239
02:14:57,920 --> 02:15:00,159
elevations that I didn't know if you

3240
02:15:00,159 --> 02:15:03,040
guys had it, but I we have the same

3241
02:15:03,040 --> 02:15:05,109
>> Do you have anything? Let me see if lay

3242
02:15:05,109 --> 02:15:05,119
» Do you have anything? Let me see if lay

3243
02:15:05,119 --> 02:15:10,709
on the Yeah. So that we can see.

3244
02:15:10,719 --> 02:15:19,510
» There you go.

3245
02:15:19,520 --> 02:15:21,520
» Slide it over just a little bit to your

3246
02:15:21,520 --> 02:15:22,800
Yep. There you go.

3247
02:15:22,800 --> 02:15:25,189
>> There you go. right there. Okay.

3248
02:15:25,189 --> 02:15:25,199
» There you go. right there. Okay.

3249
02:15:25,199 --> 02:15:26,790
>> All right. So, just give us a little

3250
02:15:26,790 --> 02:15:26,800
» All right. So, just give us a little

3251
02:15:26,800 --> 02:15:29,280
quick walk through um so that we have a

3252
02:15:29,280 --> 02:15:31,760
better idea of what you have addressed

3253
02:15:31,760 --> 02:15:32,960
and the concerns, please.

3254
02:15:32,960 --> 02:15:35,030
>> Okay. All right. So, uh what we did is

3255
02:15:35,030 --> 02:15:35,040
» Okay. All right. So, uh what we did is

3256
02:15:35,040 --> 02:15:39,040
we add added these um plant islands here

3257
02:15:39,040 --> 02:15:41,840
um with with trees and wherever we

3258
02:15:41,840 --> 02:15:45,599
could, we added around the perimeter

3259
02:15:45,599 --> 02:15:48,159
behind the behind the store right now is

3260
02:15:48,159 --> 02:15:50,960
a residential area. So, we added these

3261
02:15:50,960 --> 02:15:54,239
trees here for sound buffers um around

3262
02:15:54,239 --> 02:15:56,880
the perimeter of the store and then also

3263
02:15:56,880 --> 02:15:59,199
each island in front on the Decada

3264
02:15:59,199 --> 02:16:01,199
Boulevard. We added trees here also.

3265
02:16:01,199 --> 02:16:05,760
Well, uh trees and plants per um what is

3266
02:16:05,760 --> 02:16:08,719
requested by the city?

3267
02:16:08,719 --> 02:16:11,030
>> A question. Is there any way to add I

3268
02:16:11,030 --> 02:16:11,040
» A question. Is there any way to add I

3269
02:16:11,040 --> 02:16:13,360
see um on your display I'm going to

3270
02:16:13,360 --> 02:16:16,400
guess that the larger circles are are

3271
02:16:16,400 --> 02:16:17,119
trees.

3272
02:16:17,119 --> 02:16:19,589
>> That's correct. And I only see one in

3273
02:16:19,589 --> 02:16:19,599
» That's correct. And I only see one in

3274
02:16:19,599 --> 02:16:21,679
the rear at the very top, which I

3275
02:16:21,679 --> 02:16:22,880
believe is north

3276
02:16:22,880 --> 02:16:23,589
>> right here.

3277
02:16:23,589 --> 02:16:23,599
» right here.

3278
02:16:23,599 --> 02:16:26,790
>> Is there any is there enough room to add

3279
02:16:26,790 --> 02:16:26,800
» Is there any is there enough room to add

3280
02:16:26,800 --> 02:16:29,040
any more trees in the back for the

3281
02:16:29,040 --> 02:16:29,840
buffer?

3282
02:16:29,840 --> 02:16:32,389
>> So, we do have actually these right here

3283
02:16:32,389 --> 02:16:32,399
» So, we do have actually these right here

3284
02:16:32,399 --> 02:16:34,479
are actually trees here.

3285
02:16:34,479 --> 02:16:34,950
>> Okay.

3286
02:16:34,950 --> 02:16:34,960
» Okay.

3287
02:16:34,960 --> 02:16:36,790
>> Yeah, these are all trees right here.

3288
02:16:36,790 --> 02:16:36,800
» Yeah, these are all trees right here.

3289
02:16:36,800 --> 02:16:38,790
>> Okay. Those are smaller dots.

3290
02:16:38,790 --> 02:16:38,800
» Okay. Those are smaller dots.

3291
02:16:38,800 --> 02:16:39,349
>> Correct.

3292
02:16:39,349 --> 02:16:39,359
» Correct.

3293
02:16:39,359 --> 02:16:39,830
>> Okay.

3294
02:16:39,830 --> 02:16:39,840
» Okay.

3295
02:16:39,840 --> 02:16:41,030
>> Right here.

3296
02:16:41,030 --> 02:16:41,040
» Right here.

3297
02:16:41,040 --> 02:16:43,429
>> Okay. So, how many trees do you have in

3298
02:16:43,429 --> 02:16:43,439
» Okay. So, how many trees do you have in

3299
02:16:43,439 --> 02:16:47,200
the rear? In the rear, we have

3300
02:16:47,200 --> 02:16:48,639
we have seven.

3301
02:16:48,639 --> 02:16:50,549
>> And And what size are those?

3302
02:16:50,549 --> 02:16:50,559
» And And what size are those?

3303
02:16:50,559 --> 02:16:53,830
>> These are

3304
02:16:53,830 --> 02:16:53,840
» These are

3305
02:16:53,840 --> 02:16:55,359
24 foot boxes.

3306
02:16:55,359 --> 02:16:58,389
>> Okay. All right. Very good. All right.

3307
02:16:58,389 --> 02:16:58,399
» Okay. All right. Very good. All right.

3308
02:16:58,399 --> 02:17:03,120
Um and the gas station area does have a

3309
02:17:03,120 --> 02:17:03,920
canopy.

3310
02:17:03,920 --> 02:17:05,030
>> That is correct.

3311
02:17:05,030 --> 02:17:05,040
» That is correct.

3312
02:17:05,040 --> 02:17:07,030
>> Okay. And then the circulation issue

3313
02:17:07,030 --> 02:17:07,040
» Okay. And then the circulation issue

3314
02:17:07,040 --> 02:17:09,120
comes into play because there's no way

3315
02:17:09,120 --> 02:17:11,599
for a delivery truck to go to the rear.

3316
02:17:11,599 --> 02:17:15,840
It has to sit in front idle offload.

3317
02:17:15,840 --> 02:17:17,679
Okay. So, one of the things we talked

3318
02:17:17,679 --> 02:17:20,000
about was I know I can't mandate it, but

3319
02:17:20,000 --> 02:17:21,599
I would really appreciate it if the

3320
02:17:21,599 --> 02:17:24,800
owner would try to schedule um

3321
02:17:24,800 --> 02:17:28,160
deliveries in the early morning uh or at

3322
02:17:28,160 --> 02:17:31,519
the end of the day so that we don't have

3323
02:17:31,519 --> 02:17:35,439
a pileup on this very limited space.

3324
02:17:35,439 --> 02:17:39,270
>> Okay. Uh, I am going to be dogged about

3325
02:17:39,270 --> 02:17:39,280
» Okay. Uh, I am going to be dogged about

3326
02:17:39,280 --> 02:17:43,519
ensuring that the um landscape is kept

3327
02:17:43,519 --> 02:17:46,559
up. I live right nearby,

3328
02:17:46,559 --> 02:17:47,509
>> okay?

3329
02:17:47,509 --> 02:17:47,519
» okay?

3330
02:17:47,519 --> 02:17:49,270
>> And I will be driving by, [laughter]

3331
02:17:49,270 --> 02:17:49,280
» And I will be driving by, [laughter]

3332
02:17:49,280 --> 02:17:52,880
okay? And so, please let your owner know

3333
02:17:52,880 --> 02:17:56,639
um that he is going to be well attended

3334
02:17:56,639 --> 02:18:00,639
and and watched. And I I got code

3335
02:18:00,639 --> 02:18:02,479
enforcement on speed dial, so don't

3336
02:18:02,479 --> 02:18:05,439
don't play. Okay. Um the next thing

3337
02:18:05,439 --> 02:18:07,519
would be you have an ice cream shop.

3338
02:18:07,519 --> 02:18:08,870
>> Yes, it will be an ice cream shop

3339
02:18:08,870 --> 02:18:08,880
» Yes, it will be an ice cream shop

3340
02:18:08,880 --> 02:18:09,840
inside.

3341
02:18:09,840 --> 02:18:12,389
>> Please work have your owner begin to get

3342
02:18:12,389 --> 02:18:12,399
» Please work have your owner begin to get

3343
02:18:12,399 --> 02:18:14,639
engaged in the community. We have youth

3344
02:18:14,639 --> 02:18:17,040
development and social initiatives. They

3345
02:18:17,040 --> 02:18:19,200
are always helping young people try to

3346
02:18:19,200 --> 02:18:21,679
find work. Um that would be a great

3347
02:18:21,679 --> 02:18:23,439
opportunity for a young person to be

3348
02:18:23,439 --> 02:18:26,559
able to learn how to stock um how to um

3349
02:18:26,559 --> 02:18:28,880
assist customers and give one of the

3350
02:18:28,880 --> 02:18:30,319
young people in our community an

3351
02:18:30,319 --> 02:18:32,960
opportunity um or several especially in

3352
02:18:32,960 --> 02:18:35,840
the summer to have a job. Okay. I would

3353
02:18:35,840 --> 02:18:38,240
also encourage your owner to become

3354
02:18:38,240 --> 02:18:41,200
engaged in the activities that are in

3355
02:18:41,200 --> 02:18:43,840

Little League that needs support. Becker

3358
02:18:48,160 --> 02:18:52,080
Tech, which is just to the

3359
02:18:52,080 --> 02:18:56,479
uh west um of this location. Um we want

3360
02:18:56,479 --> 02:18:58,479
people who are coming into our community

3361
02:18:58,479 --> 02:19:01,280
to extract income from our community

3362
02:19:01,280 --> 02:19:04,160
because people will use it, but also to

3363
02:19:04,160 --> 02:19:07,439
give back and be part of the uplifting

3364
02:19:07,439 --> 02:19:10,000
of the community. I can't mandate those

3365
02:19:10,000 --> 02:19:10,960
things,

3366
02:19:10,960 --> 02:19:11,429

» Good morning everybody. My name is Amy

3443
02:21:39,520 --> 02:21:42,080
Pan. I'm the primary uh managing member

3444
02:21:42,080 --> 02:21:44,800
of this uh project. Um I'm the owner

3445
02:21:44,800 --> 02:21:48,640
also. Um so this pro uh give a little

3446
02:21:48,640 --> 02:21:51,680
historical information of this land. It

3447
02:21:51,680 --> 02:21:54,720
it was combined from two parcels when I

3448
02:21:54,720 --> 02:21:59,120
um purchased it. um the the 1708 Santa

3449
02:21:59,120 --> 02:22:03,200
Paula uh was a a residential joial when

3450
02:22:03,200 --> 02:22:05,600
I purchased. So when we combine both

3451
02:22:05,600 --> 02:22:08,960
parcels into one parcel now it become PR

3452
02:22:08,960 --> 02:22:12,880
professional uh uh office. Um however

3453
02:22:12,880 --> 02:22:15,280
since we uh my last renter moved out

3454
02:22:15,280 --> 02:22:17,920
last year. So this uh property has uh

3455
02:22:17,920 --> 02:22:21,120
been vacant since uh last year October.

3456
02:22:21,120 --> 02:22:23,680
The problem with that area is uh it a

3457
02:22:23,680 --> 02:22:26,399
little bit rough area and uh we have

3458
02:22:26,399 --> 02:22:28,080
lots of things since if you can check

3459
02:22:28,080 --> 02:22:30,800
the system we have lots of opening um

3460
02:22:30,800 --> 02:22:33,760
citations on that property. Uh I've been

3461
02:22:33,760 --> 02:22:36,160
um sending lots of uh people there to

3462
02:22:36,160 --> 02:22:38,560
clean uh you know just try to keep

3463
02:22:38,560 --> 02:22:41,600
people off the property. However, you

3464
02:22:41,600 --> 02:22:44,080
know, um the food traffic is just never

3465
02:22:44,080 --> 02:22:48,080
stop and uh the only um by observation

3466
02:22:48,080 --> 02:22:50,000
because the um next door the nest

3467
02:22:50,000 --> 02:22:52,080
property once we have tenants living

3468
02:22:52,080 --> 02:22:55,200
there the full traffic stopped. So the

3469
02:22:55,200 --> 02:22:57,840
only solution to this problem is to have

3470
02:22:57,840 --> 02:23:01,520
somebody move in ASAP. So, um that's why

3471
02:23:01,520 --> 02:23:03,600
we're planning to uh resume this

3472
02:23:03,600 --> 02:23:05,760
property into residential since I was

3473
02:23:05,760 --> 02:23:09,120
not able to get a tenant in there as uh

3474
02:23:09,120 --> 02:23:13,280
PR uh uh usage. So, that's I'm here to

3475
02:23:13,280 --> 02:23:17,359
um propose this uh project to be able to

3476
02:23:17,359 --> 02:23:19,439
resone to residential uh back to

3477
02:23:19,439 --> 02:23:22,000
residential uh community and then have

3478
02:23:22,000 --> 02:23:24,800
tenants move in ASAP.

3479
02:23:24,800 --> 02:23:27,190
>> Thank you so much. May I have a staff

3480
02:23:27,190 --> 02:23:27,200
» Thank you so much. May I have a staff

3481
02:23:27,200 --> 02:23:28,560
report, please?

3482
02:23:28,560 --> 02:23:30,309
>> Yes, madam. Mayor Peter Lostein, for the

3483
02:23:30,309 --> 02:23:30,319
» Yes, madam. Mayor Peter Lostein, for the

3484
02:23:30,319 --> 02:23:32,479
record, the existing building was pre

3485
02:23:32,479 --> 02:23:34,080
previously converted from a multif

3486
02:23:34,080 --> 02:23:36,560
family use to an office use in 2015

3487
02:23:36,560 --> 02:23:38,080
where it conformed to the rear yard

3488
02:23:38,080 --> 02:23:41,040
setback requirement. Staff does does not

3489
02:23:41,040 --> 02:23:43,520
now support creation of a non-conforming

3490
02:23:43,520 --> 02:23:45,120
setback and there is no physical

3491
02:23:45,120 --> 02:23:46,560
characteristic of the lock that warrants

3492
02:23:46,560 --> 02:23:48,080
approval of the variance. Therefore,

3493
02:23:48,080 --> 02:23:49,600
staff has recommended denial of the

3494
02:23:49,600 --> 02:23:51,600
variance and the reasonzoning. should be

3495
02:23:51,600 --> 02:23:54,479
noting noted that if approved uh

3496
02:23:54,479 --> 02:23:56,399
pursuant to the code a site development

3497
02:23:56,399 --> 02:23:58,319
plan review would be required for the

3498
02:23:58,319 --> 02:24:00,080
conversion of the existing commercial

3499
02:24:00,080 --> 02:24:02,800
building to a multif family residential

3500
02:24:02,800 --> 02:24:04,960
use in the future. Thank you.

3501
02:24:04,960 --> 02:24:07,030
>> Thank you so much. Um is there anyone

3502
02:24:07,030 --> 02:24:07,040
» Thank you so much. Um is there anyone

3503
02:24:07,040 --> 02:24:10,800
else wishing to be heard on this item?

3504
02:24:10,800 --> 02:24:12,880
Seeing no one, I will uh close the

3505
02:24:12,880 --> 02:24:15,439
public hearings. Um are there any

3506
02:24:15,439 --> 02:24:19,910
questions or comments from the council?

3507
02:24:19,920 --> 02:24:23,600
Is there a motion? Councilwoman Diaz.

3508
02:24:23,600 --> 02:24:25,030
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. And just to

3509
02:24:25,030 --> 02:24:25,040

>> Yes.

3512
02:24:27,429 --> 02:24:27,439
» Yes.

3513
02:24:27,439 --> 02:24:30,790
>> Okay. Just making sure. Uh Miss Pan, um

3514
02:24:30,790 --> 02:24:30,800
» Okay. Just making sure. Uh Miss Pan, um

3515
02:24:30,800 --> 02:24:33,840
since I haven't spoken to you about um

3516
02:24:33,840 --> 02:24:37,040
the future of the site, uh I want to

3517
02:24:37,040 --> 02:24:38,960
reiterate what our planning staff just

3518
02:24:38,960 --> 02:24:40,720
articulated. So, right now we're

3519
02:24:40,720 --> 02:24:42,640
tackling the zoning change back to

3520
02:24:42,640 --> 02:24:44,399
residential, but obviously from the

3521
02:24:44,399 --> 02:24:46,640
renderings and the pictures, it is not

3522
02:24:46,640 --> 02:24:50,000
inhabitable as is, right? And so,

3523
02:24:50,000 --> 02:24:51,990
>> um, you do have to come back to us as a

3524
02:24:51,990 --> 02:24:52,000
» um, you do have to come back to us as a

3525
02:24:52,000 --> 02:24:54,960
city council to show us what you're how

3526
02:24:54,960 --> 02:24:57,920
you're going to transform this

3527
02:24:57,920 --> 02:25:00,790
>> defunct, um, I'm calling it defunct and

3528
02:25:00,790 --> 02:25:00,800
» defunct, um, I'm calling it defunct and

3529
02:25:00,800 --> 02:25:04,000
boarded office and professional use, um,

3530
02:25:04,000 --> 02:25:06,399
to then what you're pivoting to offer in

3531
02:25:06,399 --> 02:25:08,319
residential. So are you understanding

3532
02:25:08,319 --> 02:25:11,520
that you even if I bless this you can't

3533
02:25:11,520 --> 02:25:14,160
necessarily move someone in right away?

3534
02:25:14,160 --> 02:25:16,560
No, no, no. Actually, uh, right now we

3535
02:25:16,560 --> 02:25:18,399
brought up just protect the windows

3536
02:25:18,399 --> 02:25:21,359
from, uh, breaking, you know, by people

3537
02:25:21,359 --> 02:25:24,720
and, uh, I did call building safety. I

3538
02:25:24,720 --> 02:25:28,560
ask about the permit. Um, how and I

3539
02:25:28,560 --> 02:25:31,280
talked to I think Lorenzo and he said as

3540
02:25:31,280 --> 02:25:34,080
long we're planning to do of course some

3541
02:25:34,080 --> 02:25:37,120
cosmetic upgrades to make sure the

3542
02:25:37,120 --> 02:25:38,960
building, you know, is up to the

3543
02:25:38,960 --> 02:25:42,479
standard code everything. And that's um

3544
02:25:42,479 --> 02:25:45,200
I talked to Lorenzo and I was told I if

3545
02:25:45,200 --> 02:25:48,479
we just do customatic uh upgrade we

3546
02:25:48,479 --> 02:25:50,560
don't really need to submit the permit

3547
02:25:50,560 --> 02:25:53,280
or anything.

3548
02:25:53,280 --> 02:25:55,750
>> Is that accurate planning team because I

3549
02:25:55,750 --> 02:25:55,760
» Is that accurate planning team because I

3550
02:25:55,760 --> 02:25:57,280
don't think that is accurate

3551
02:25:57,280 --> 02:25:58,550
>> through you madam mayor. I'm not going

3552
02:25:58,550 --> 02:25:58,560
» through you madam mayor. I'm not going

3553
02:25:58,560 --> 02:26:00,160
to speak for the building department or

3554
02:26:00,160 --> 02:26:02,319
the building official but uh the

3555
02:26:02,319 --> 02:26:03,920
building is a commercial building. It's

3556
02:26:03,920 --> 02:26:06,960
not suitable for uh a residential use.

3557
02:26:06,960 --> 02:26:08,319
It would have to be converted and

3558
02:26:08,319 --> 02:26:10,000
pursuant to the zoning ordinance. they

3559
02:26:10,000 --> 02:26:11,680
would need to do a site development plan

3560
02:26:11,680 --> 02:26:14,240
review to convert the home or convert

3561
02:26:14,240 --> 02:26:16,160
the commercial building to a residential

3562
02:26:16,160 --> 02:26:18,319
use and then subsequent to that any

3563
02:26:18,319 --> 02:26:20,000
building permits that would be needed

3564
02:26:20,000 --> 02:26:23,439
for if it's fire safety or anything else

3565
02:26:23,439 --> 02:26:25,120
um would need to be accomplished after

3566
02:26:25,120 --> 02:26:27,040
the entitlement.

3567
02:26:27,040 --> 02:26:29,349
>> Okay, I understand. Okay, maybe I'll

3568
02:26:29,349 --> 02:26:29,359
» Okay, I understand. Okay, maybe I'll

3569
02:26:29,359 --> 02:26:32,479
just keep as is have just put a permit

3570
02:26:32,479 --> 02:26:35,359
have you guys to come in to inspect.

3571
02:26:35,359 --> 02:26:38,319
So that probably would be the outcome.

3572
02:26:38,319 --> 02:26:40,319
So, so once again just to be clear, so

3573
02:26:40,319 --> 02:26:42,479
these are land use applications which

3574
02:26:42,479 --> 02:26:44,960
the council is deciding on right now.

3575
02:26:44,960 --> 02:26:47,200
There would be one more which was called

3576
02:26:47,200 --> 02:26:48,880
the site development plan review which

3577
02:26:48,880 --> 02:26:51,920
shows how the site would be designed and

3578
02:26:51,920 --> 02:26:54,399
work and function for it to go from

3579
02:26:54,399 --> 02:26:56,080
commercial the professional office what

3580
02:26:56,080 --> 02:26:59,760
it is now to a [clears throat] excuse me

3581
02:26:59,760 --> 02:27:02,720
residential use. So it's not simply a

3582
02:27:02,720 --> 02:27:05,120
building permit it is a land use

3583
02:27:05,120 --> 02:27:06,880
entitlement similar to this.

3584
02:27:06,880 --> 02:27:09,750
>> Okay. then into the building permit.

3585
02:27:09,750 --> 02:27:09,760
» Okay. then into the building permit.

3586
02:27:09,760 --> 02:27:11,349
>> So basically, you would have to go

3587
02:27:11,349 --> 02:27:11,359
» So basically, you would have to go

3588
02:27:11,359 --> 02:27:13,520
through this process once more. You

3589
02:27:13,520 --> 02:27:15,520
would have to have a pre-application sit

3590
02:27:15,520 --> 02:27:17,280
down with our planning staff. You would

3591
02:27:17,280 --> 02:27:20,319
probably have to have hired folks to do

3592
02:27:20,319 --> 02:27:22,720
renderings of what does it look like

3593
02:27:22,720 --> 02:27:25,040
now? How are you pivoting from what the

3594
02:27:25,040 --> 02:27:26,960
current structure looks like to what you

3595
02:27:26,960 --> 02:27:28,800
want to offer your future tenants and

3596
02:27:28,800 --> 02:27:31,359
residents? So, it does it is it does

3597
02:27:31,359 --> 02:27:33,600
it's not just you paint the building,

3598
02:27:33,600 --> 02:27:35,600
you do some modifications, and you're

3599
02:27:35,600 --> 02:27:38,319
done. And I I think there could be more

3600
02:27:38,319 --> 02:27:41,200
things involved. Am I missing something?

3601
02:27:41,200 --> 02:27:42,710
>> You're you're absolutely right. There is

3602
02:27:42,710 --> 02:27:42,720
» You're you're absolutely right. There is

3603
02:27:42,720 --> 02:27:44,960
there are more steps. It's not just one

3604
02:27:44,960 --> 02:27:45,680
building permit.

3605
02:27:45,680 --> 02:27:47,270
>> What department should I work with on

3606
02:27:47,270 --> 02:27:47,280
» What department should I work with on

3607
02:27:47,280 --> 02:27:47,600
that?

3608
02:27:47,600 --> 02:27:49,990
>> Uh community community development will

3609
02:27:49,990 --> 02:27:50,000
» Uh community community development will

3610
02:27:50,000 --> 02:27:50,479
cover it.

3611
02:27:50,479 --> 02:27:51,990
>> So community development and if you

3612
02:27:51,990 --> 02:27:52,000
» So community development and if you

3613
02:27:52,000 --> 02:27:53,840
reach out, they'll channel you with a

3614
02:27:53,840 --> 02:27:55,439
planner and then you can have all your

3615
02:27:55,439 --> 02:27:57,520
questions answered about what's needed

3616
02:27:57,520 --> 02:28:00,319
for the site development review. But I

3617
02:28:00,319 --> 02:28:02,720
did want you to I want before we take a

3618
02:28:02,720 --> 02:28:04,479
vote on the change of zone, I want you

3619
02:28:04,479 --> 02:28:07,120
to be full aware that there are multiple

3620
02:28:07,120 --> 02:28:08,880
next steps that you still have to follow

3621
02:28:08,880 --> 02:28:10,720
through before you can,

3622
02:28:10,720 --> 02:28:12,950
>> you know, we want to make sure that we

3623
02:28:12,950 --> 02:28:12,960
» you know, we want to make sure that we

3624
02:28:12,960 --> 02:28:14,880
vet the living conditions that you're

3625
02:28:14,880 --> 02:28:16,880
going to offer future residents.

3626
02:28:16,880 --> 02:28:18,150
>> Okay.

3627
02:28:18,150 --> 02:28:18,160
» Okay.

3628
02:28:18,160 --> 02:28:20,230
>> Do you are you comfortable still moving

3629
02:28:20,230 --> 02:28:20,240
» Do you are you comfortable still moving

3630
02:28:20,240 --> 02:28:20,720
forward?

3631
02:28:20,720 --> 02:28:22,469
>> Oh, yeah. I'm definitely move moving

3632
02:28:22,469 --> 02:28:22,479
» Oh, yeah. I'm definitely move moving

3633
02:28:22,479 --> 02:28:23,040
forward.

3634
02:28:23,040 --> 02:28:26,150
>> Okay. I I feel that the use is um

3635
02:28:26,150 --> 02:28:26,160
» Okay. I I feel that the use is um

3636
02:28:26,160 --> 02:28:28,319
started residential and I think it's

3637
02:28:28,319 --> 02:28:30,000
even better for it to go back to

3638
02:28:30,000 --> 02:28:31,520
residential and so I don't have any

3639
02:28:31,520 --> 02:28:33,439
heartburn about granting you the zone

3640
02:28:33,439 --> 02:28:34,640
change. So with that I'm going to move

3641
02:28:34,640 --> 02:28:37,200
to approve agenda items 39A and B.

3642
02:28:37,200 --> 02:28:38,150

» May I ask the applicant you understand

record. Uh, mayor, this item is before

3691
02:30:09,600 --> 02:30:12,000
you today uh because in the last

3692
02:30:12,000 --> 02:30:15,200
legislative session, bill AB96

3693
02:30:15,200 --> 02:30:17,520
uh was passed which requires us to add

3694
02:30:17,520 --> 02:30:20,479
some things to our existing master plan.

3695
02:30:20,479 --> 02:30:22,640
And Mark Oada on our team was

3696
02:30:22,640 --> 02:30:24,160
instrumental in getting that passed. He

3697
02:30:24,160 --> 02:30:25,920
provided a lot of testimony during a

3698
02:30:25,920 --> 02:30:27,760
couple of hearings there, but he is not

3699
02:30:27,760 --> 02:30:29,200
here today. So, I'm going to hand it

3700
02:30:29,200 --> 02:30:31,439
over to Rachel Lewis on his team to do

3701
02:30:31,439 --> 02:30:32,800
the presentation and then we'll be

3702
02:30:32,800 --> 02:30:34,000
available to answer any questions

3703
02:30:34,000 --> 02:30:34,720
afterwards.

3704
02:30:34,720 --> 02:30:35,830
>> Thank you. Welcome.

3705
02:30:35,830 --> 02:30:35,840
» Thank you. Welcome.

3707
02:30:38,070 --> 02:30:38,080
» Thank you.

3708
02:30:38,080 --> 02:30:39,439
Good morning, Madame Mayor, City

3709
02:30:39,439 --> 02:30:41,760
Council. My name is Rachel Lewis, City

3710
02:30:41,760 --> 02:30:43,680
of Las Vegas Department of Community

3711
02:30:43,680 --> 02:30:46,160
Development for the record. And as SS

3712
02:30:46,160 --> 02:30:48,080
said, I am here to talk about the heat

3713
02:30:48,080 --> 02:30:50,160
mitigation plan. I first want to talk

3714
02:30:50,160 --> 02:30:52,960
about how it came about. And it was our

3715
02:30:52,960 --> 02:30:55,840
last uh Nevada legislation session in

3716
02:30:55,840 --> 02:30:59,600
2025 where Assembly Bill 96 was passed

3717
02:30:59,600 --> 02:31:02,560
requiring counties with a population of

3718
02:31:02,560 --> 02:31:05,200
more than a 100,000 people um which is

3719
02:31:05,200 --> 02:31:07,200
Wo and Clark County and the

3720
02:31:07,200 --> 02:31:09,600
jurisdictions within those counties uh

3721
02:31:09,600 --> 02:31:12,399
to amend the conservation element within

3722
02:31:12,399 --> 02:31:14,960
the master plan to now include a heat

3723
02:31:14,960 --> 02:31:18,720
mitigation plan. Assembly Bill 96 has

3724
02:31:18,720 --> 02:31:21,120
language explaining exactly what needs

3725
02:31:21,120 --> 02:31:24,000
to go within the heat mitigation plan

3726
02:31:24,000 --> 02:31:26,399
and those items are access to public

3727
02:31:26,399 --> 02:31:30,240
cooling spaces, public drinking water,

3728
02:31:30,240 --> 02:31:32,720
cool building practices

3729
02:31:32,720 --> 02:31:35,760
and shade over paved surfaces. Now the

3730
02:31:35,760 --> 02:31:37,680
city of Las Vegas, we have been

3731
02:31:37,680 --> 02:31:40,960
addressing heat mitigation here and it's

3732
02:31:40,960 --> 02:31:43,200
been documented within our master plan.

3733
02:31:43,200 --> 02:31:45,200
We have a section within the master plan

3734
02:31:45,200 --> 02:31:47,280
talks about our hazards. One of those

3735
02:31:47,280 --> 02:31:49,840
hazards being extreme heat. Another

3736
02:31:49,840 --> 02:31:52,080
section talks about our urban forestry

3737
02:31:52,080 --> 02:31:53,920
um and our urban forestry goals of

3738
02:31:53,920 --> 02:31:57,680
planting 60,000 trees by 2050.

3739
02:31:57,680 --> 02:31:59,439
Another example that we've already been

3740
02:31:59,439 --> 02:32:02,160
doing heat mitigation is uh this past

3741
02:32:02,160 --> 02:32:05,200
November uh and December of 2025. We

3742
02:32:05,200 --> 02:32:07,200
recently passed our urban forestry

3743
02:32:07,200 --> 02:32:09,680
management plan. This is a framework um

3744
02:32:09,680 --> 02:32:11,920
a big book that tells us exactly what we

3745
02:32:11,920 --> 02:32:14,080
need to do to ensure we maintain our

3746
02:32:14,080 --> 02:32:16,479
tree canopy as well as what we exactly

3747
02:32:16,479 --> 02:32:19,040
need to do to ensure we hit our tree

3748
02:32:19,040 --> 02:32:21,120
planting goals.

3749
02:32:21,120 --> 02:32:23,439
Um and so we're here today to we're here

3750
02:32:23,439 --> 02:32:26,240
today to approve um uh amending our

3751
02:32:26,240 --> 02:32:28,319
master plan to include a heat mitigation

3752
02:32:28,319 --> 02:32:29,920
plan.

3753
02:32:29,920 --> 02:32:32,000
I next want to talk about our urban heat

3754
02:32:32,000 --> 02:32:34,800
island and what that is exactly. Uh heat

3755
02:32:34,800 --> 02:32:36,720
and extreme temperatures is a

3756
02:32:36,720 --> 02:32:38,560
jurisdictional problem. It affects

3757
02:32:38,560 --> 02:32:41,520
everyone here in southern Nevada. And

3758
02:32:41,520 --> 02:32:44,080
what is occurring exactly is as our city

3759
02:32:44,080 --> 02:32:46,880
continues to grow um continues to expand

3760
02:32:46,880 --> 02:32:49,040
outwards, we're inadvertently covering

3761
02:32:49,040 --> 02:32:51,200
up our natural soils, our natural

3762
02:32:51,200 --> 02:32:53,840
plants, um and we're covering it up with

3763
02:32:53,840 --> 02:32:57,439
asphalt and concrete and building. And

3764
02:32:57,439 --> 02:32:59,280
as we're living our urban lives, we

3765
02:32:59,280 --> 02:33:00,560
drive to work, we turn on our air

3766
02:33:00,560 --> 02:33:02,479
conditioning. Um, we're inadvertently

3767
02:33:02,479 --> 02:33:04,080
creating a lot of heat that's being

3768
02:33:04,080 --> 02:33:06,160
absorbed by our built environment. Um,

3769
02:33:06,160 --> 02:33:07,920
so what we're finding here is this urban

3770
02:33:07,920 --> 02:33:10,399
heat island where it's hotter in the

3771
02:33:10,399 --> 02:33:12,399
concentrated areas of our city. So we're

3772
02:33:12,399 --> 02:33:15,280
in our downtown region. Um, and what

3773
02:33:15,280 --> 02:33:17,520
this picture shows, this is an entire

3774
02:33:17,520 --> 02:33:20,319
um, map of our uh, Las Vegas Valley. The

3775
02:33:20,319 --> 02:33:22,160
city of Las Vegas is outlined in that

3776
02:33:22,160 --> 02:33:24,240
blue color there. Um, like I said, it's

3777
02:33:24,240 --> 02:33:25,760
a jurisdictional issue or it's a

3778
02:33:25,760 --> 02:33:27,600
regional issue, so it affects everyone.

3779
02:33:27,600 --> 02:33:29,359
Um, and on the outside of the city, we

3780
02:33:29,359 --> 02:33:31,359
can see um a blue color which represents

3781
02:33:31,359 --> 02:33:33,840
cooler temperatures. And as we um move

3782
02:33:33,840 --> 02:33:35,920
in closer from the orange to yellow and

3783
02:33:35,920 --> 02:33:37,600
red, that highlights that it's getting

3784
02:33:37,600 --> 02:33:39,439
hotter. So that's that urban heat

3785
02:33:39,439 --> 02:33:41,439
island. Um I do want to call out, um

3786
02:33:41,439 --> 02:33:44,479
East Las Vegas is the hottest area here.

3787
02:33:44,479 --> 02:33:46,240
Um, so we have people that are living

3788
02:33:46,240 --> 02:33:48,960
and working within East Las Vegas, uh,

3789
02:33:48,960 --> 02:33:50,640
where this really, um, this heat

3790
02:33:50,640 --> 02:33:52,479
mitigation plan will hopefully improve

3791
02:33:52,479 --> 02:33:53,920
the lives of people that are working

3792
02:33:53,920 --> 02:33:54,880
there.

3793
02:33:54,880 --> 02:33:56,070
>> And if I could just jump in for one

3794
02:33:56,070 --> 02:33:56,080
» And if I could just jump in for one

3795
02:33:56,080 --> 02:33:57,760
second, Seth Floyd, for the record, um,

3796
02:33:57,760 --> 02:34:00,640
you had an item earlier to approve RDA3.

3797
02:34:00,640 --> 02:34:02,560
You'll notice that RDA3 is squarely

3798
02:34:02,560 --> 02:34:04,479
within the bolded area that's

3799
02:34:04,479 --> 02:34:06,240
highlighted here. So as those areas

3800
02:34:06,240 --> 02:34:08,880
redevelop, we can incorporate these

3801
02:34:08,880 --> 02:34:10,800
practices that are going to be outlined

3802
02:34:10,800 --> 02:34:13,200
in the heat mitigation plan to get more

3803
02:34:13,200 --> 02:34:15,200
trees, use different building techniques

3804
02:34:15,200 --> 02:34:16,479
to start addressing the urban heat

3805
02:34:16,479 --> 02:34:18,399
element there.

3806
02:34:18,399 --> 02:34:19,510
>> Thank you.

3807
02:34:19,510 --> 02:34:19,520
» Thank you.

3808
02:34:19,520 --> 02:34:19,990
>> Thank you.

3809
02:34:19,990 --> 02:34:20,000
» Thank you.

3810
02:34:20,000 --> 02:34:22,389
>> Okay. So, so moving along with Assembly

3811
02:34:22,389 --> 02:34:22,399
» Okay. So, so moving along with Assembly

3812
02:34:22,399 --> 02:34:25,280
Bill 96. Um again, there it says exactly

3813
02:34:25,280 --> 02:34:26,800
what needs to be in the heat mitigation

3814
02:34:26,800 --> 02:34:28,479
plan. So the first thing is public

3815
02:34:28,479 --> 02:34:30,399
cooling spaces. The city of Las Vegas

3816
02:34:30,399 --> 02:34:32,720
has already been doing this. We have the

3817
02:34:32,720 --> 02:34:35,120
Courtyard Homeless Resource Center. In

3818
02:34:35,120 --> 02:34:36,560
addition to the homeless resource

3819
02:34:36,560 --> 02:34:38,319
center, we have a partnership or a

3820
02:34:38,319 --> 02:34:40,560
collaboration with our libraries. So, if

3821
02:34:40,560 --> 02:34:42,560
there's a library located within the

3822
02:34:42,560 --> 02:34:44,479
city of Las Vegas, it also acts as a

3823
02:34:44,479 --> 02:34:47,439
cooling center. Um, after cooling

3824
02:34:47,439 --> 02:34:49,040
centers, we have to have access to

3825
02:34:49,040 --> 02:34:51,200
public drinking water. Um, and so what

3826
02:34:51,200 --> 02:34:54,000
we did is we actually GPSed our drinking

3827
02:34:54,000 --> 02:34:56,319
fountains. it would make sense that when

3828
02:34:56,319 --> 02:34:58,240
we go out to our parks and within our

3829
02:34:58,240 --> 02:34:59,840
community centers that you're going to

3830
02:34:59,840 --> 02:35:02,160
find a drinking fountain there. Um, and

3831
02:35:02,160 --> 02:35:04,000
so that's what you see here. Every red

3832
02:35:04,000 --> 02:35:05,760
dot is a drinking fountain and it

3833
02:35:05,760 --> 02:35:07,200
corresponds with the community center

3834
02:35:07,200 --> 02:35:10,160
that it's located in. Um, we GPSed it

3835
02:35:10,160 --> 02:35:12,479
because a recommendation within our heat

3836
02:35:12,479 --> 02:35:15,680
plan is to expand locations for drinking

3837
02:35:15,680 --> 02:35:17,120
fountains and so it'll be easily

3838
02:35:17,120 --> 02:35:18,960
accessible. We can map where our

3839
02:35:18,960 --> 02:35:21,520
drinking fountains are located.

3840
02:35:21,520 --> 02:35:24,000
Next is cool building practices. It's

3841
02:35:24,000 --> 02:35:25,840
important to think about as we grow and

3842
02:35:25,840 --> 02:35:27,520
as we expand that we're not adding to

3843
02:35:27,520 --> 02:35:29,680
the urban heat island and that we're

3844
02:35:29,680 --> 02:35:31,760
doing what we can to help mitigate that.

3845
02:35:31,760 --> 02:35:33,920
So that includes um a great example is

3846
02:35:33,920 --> 02:35:36,319
solar panels um on top of our roofs. So

3847
02:35:36,319 --> 02:35:38,160
instead of the sun beating down on our

3848
02:35:38,160 --> 02:35:40,000
roofs and heating up our buildings, we

3849
02:35:40,000 --> 02:35:42,560
have solar panels that provide shade um

3850
02:35:42,560 --> 02:35:45,040
also uh produce renewable energy in the

3851
02:35:45,040 --> 02:35:48,080
process. Other examples, um the color of

3852
02:35:48,080 --> 02:35:50,399
our buildings. Um it's go instead of

3853
02:35:50,399 --> 02:35:52,080
having dark colored buildings, we're

3854
02:35:52,080 --> 02:35:54,160
having lighter colored buildings to help

3855
02:35:54,160 --> 02:35:56,640
uh reflect the heat. Um even the

3856
02:35:56,640 --> 02:35:58,800
orientation of the building, how it's um

3857
02:35:58,800 --> 02:36:00,800
how it's built and the orientation to

3858
02:36:00,800 --> 02:36:02,399
the sun, where we place our windows

3859
02:36:02,399 --> 02:36:04,640
within our buildings as well. Um we have

3860
02:36:04,640 --> 02:36:06,319
a really great example here at city

3861
02:36:06,319 --> 02:36:08,479
hall. Um we have what's called a green

3862
02:36:08,479 --> 02:36:09,840
roof, which means that we have

3863
02:36:09,840 --> 02:36:12,319
vegetation on top of our roofs. So, um

3864
02:36:12,319 --> 02:36:14,240
just outside um Chambers and right

3865
02:36:14,240 --> 02:36:16,560
outside of our now cafe, we have um our

3866
02:36:16,560 --> 02:36:18,640
second floor patio where there's trees

3867
02:36:18,640 --> 02:36:20,720
and there's an employee garden. Similar

3868
02:36:20,720 --> 02:36:22,880
to Civic Center, there's a similar um

3869
02:36:22,880 --> 02:36:24,800
trees and a garden outside of the then

3870
02:36:24,800 --> 02:36:27,120
cafe.

3871
02:36:27,120 --> 02:36:29,280
Next is shade over pave surfaces. Again,

3872
02:36:29,280 --> 02:36:30,720
great examples here in the city of Las

3873
02:36:30,720 --> 02:36:32,880
Vegas. Right downtown, we have the Las

3874
02:36:32,880 --> 02:36:34,479
Vegas North Premium Outlets where they

3875
02:36:34,479 --> 02:36:36,560
have a shade structure um that help

3876
02:36:36,560 --> 02:36:38,240
people as they're shopping that they can

3877
02:36:38,240 --> 02:36:40,720
enjoy the shade. uh a similar example of

3878
02:36:40,720 --> 02:36:42,319
the shade structure in downtown

3879
02:36:42,319 --> 02:36:44,560
Summerland. And so shade overpaved

3880
02:36:44,560 --> 02:36:46,479
surfaces includes both shade structures

3881
02:36:46,479 --> 02:36:48,720
as well as our urban canopy with a

3882
02:36:48,720 --> 02:36:50,240
preference for drought tolerant and

3883
02:36:50,240 --> 02:36:53,120
native species. Um and back to our uh

3884
02:36:53,120 --> 02:36:55,439
2050 master plan with our urban forestry

3885
02:36:55,439 --> 02:36:57,920
goal of planting 60,000 trees that

3886
02:36:57,920 --> 02:36:59,680
includes both public and private

3887
02:36:59,680 --> 02:37:02,240
property. This is a public uh project

3888
02:37:02,240 --> 02:37:04,319
where we did a tree planting event at

3889
02:37:04,319 --> 02:37:06,560
one of our local parks um educating the

3890
02:37:06,560 --> 02:37:08,319
community about the importance of our

3891
02:37:08,319 --> 02:37:12,000
urban canopy. And then we also um want

3892
02:37:12,000 --> 02:37:13,840
to plant 60,000 trees on private

3893
02:37:13,840 --> 02:37:15,760
property. We know that funding can

3894
02:37:15,760 --> 02:37:17,600
sometimes be a challenge to work on

3895
02:37:17,600 --> 02:37:20,080
private property. Fortunately, uh the

3896
02:37:20,080 --> 02:37:22,080
city of Las Vegas, we received uh

3897
02:37:22,080 --> 02:37:23,760
federal funding from the US Department

3898
02:37:23,760 --> 02:37:26,160
of Agriculture for a service to plant

3899
02:37:26,160 --> 02:37:29,040
trees um on in the front yards of family

3900
02:37:29,040 --> 02:37:31,120
homes. And so that's what we see here.

3901
02:37:31,120 --> 02:37:33,280
This um was a house located or it's

3902
02:37:33,280 --> 02:37:35,600
located in downtown. Um and our partner

3903
02:37:35,600 --> 02:37:37,200
is par three. So they're doing the

3904
02:37:37,200 --> 02:37:39,040
planting of the trees. This was our very

3905
02:37:39,040 --> 02:37:41,280
first tree um from the grant. So this is

3906
02:37:41,280 --> 02:37:43,359
really exciting. Um and so what comes

3907
02:37:43,359 --> 02:37:45,920
with a p um with the funding to plant on

3908
02:37:45,920 --> 02:37:48,319
private property is we have five options

3909
02:37:48,319 --> 02:37:50,800
for drought tolerant trees. Um the trees

3910
02:37:50,800 --> 02:37:52,800
are planted and then irrigation is

3911
02:37:52,800 --> 02:37:54,720
included and then a one-year follow-up

3912
02:37:54,720 --> 02:37:56,720
on the tree just to ensure that it's on

3913
02:37:56,720 --> 02:37:58,319
its way to grow big and strong and

3914
02:37:58,319 --> 02:37:59,920
provide lots of shade for the years to

3915
02:37:59,920 --> 02:38:04,479
come. This is the flyer. Um and so the

3916
02:38:04,479 --> 02:38:06,479
tree program doesn't apply for all of

3917
02:38:06,479 --> 02:38:08,800
city of Las Vegas. It's only in select

3918
02:38:08,800 --> 02:38:11,439
zip codes. Um back to the map about the

3919
02:38:11,439 --> 02:38:13,680
urban heat island. So this program is

3920
02:38:13,680 --> 02:38:15,680
really to plant trees in areas that need

3921
02:38:15,680 --> 02:38:17,120
them the most. So, this is going to be

3922
02:38:17,120 --> 02:38:19,920
that downtown core um east Las Vegas.

3923
02:38:19,920 --> 02:38:22,800
And I just want to thank council um for

02:38:22,800 --> 02:38:24,640

3925
02:38:24,640 --> 02:38:27,120

um when your your uh your uh ward is

3927
02:38:29,760 --> 02:38:32,080
located within our eligible areas. And

02:38:32,080 --> 02:38:34,319
with that, um I'll answer any questions.

3929
02:38:34,319 --> 02:38:36,240
We ask that you pass um our heat

within our master plan um required by

3932
02:38:41,280 --> 02:38:44,160
Nevada legislation, Assembly Bill 96.

3933
02:38:44,160 --> 02:38:45,270
>> Darcy.

3934
02:38:45,270 --> 02:38:45,280
» Darcy.

3935
02:38:45,280 --> 02:38:49,200
I'm sorry, Rachel. Rachel, um I I've

3936
02:38:49,200 --> 02:38:52,640
never been so enthusiastic about a heat

3937
02:38:52,640 --> 02:38:55,280
mitigation proposal, but thank you so

3938
02:38:55,280 --> 02:38:57,520
much for bringing this to life for us.

3939
02:38:57,520 --> 02:39:01,280
Uh are there any uh uh well uh I guess

3940
02:39:01,280 --> 02:39:04,880
this is um is there anybody on the

3941
02:39:04,880 --> 02:39:06,960
council that wishes to speak on this

3942
02:39:06,960 --> 02:39:09,359
issue?

3943
02:39:09,359 --> 02:39:10,560
Mayor Prom.

3944
02:39:10,560 --> 02:39:13,510
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. being the

3945
02:39:13,510 --> 02:39:13,520
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. being the

3946
02:39:13,520 --> 02:39:15,359
council member that represents a lot of

3947
02:39:15,359 --> 02:39:18,240
that red zone that's on the map. Um I

3948
02:39:18,240 --> 02:39:20,080
just want to say how invaluable these

3949
02:39:20,080 --> 02:39:23,280
efforts are. I literally can tell the

3950
02:39:23,280 --> 02:39:26,080
difference when I travel from where I

3951
02:39:26,080 --> 02:39:30,000
mostly am in that east side and I I can

3952
02:39:30,000 --> 02:39:31,680
feel how hot it is throughout the day.

3953
02:39:31,680 --> 02:39:34,399
And then if I travel westward, the

3954
02:39:34,399 --> 02:39:36,960
further west I am, I can feel it drop

3955
02:39:36,960 --> 02:39:39,200
five to six degrees. Um, and it really

3956
02:39:39,200 --> 02:39:41,359
does. And in the time that we're living

3957
02:39:41,359 --> 02:39:44,160
right now in July where we're reaching

3958
02:39:44,160 --> 02:39:46,399
upwards of 110,

3959
02:39:46,399 --> 02:39:50,319
um, you really feel when it's above 100

3960
02:39:50,319 --> 02:39:52,800
degrees, every single degree that inches

3961
02:39:52,800 --> 02:39:56,240
up. So, really excited. Just an ask I

3962
02:39:56,240 --> 02:39:58,000
have is keep us in the loop when you're

3963
02:39:58,000 --> 02:39:59,760
doing the tree plantings. We want to go

3964
02:39:59,760 --> 02:40:01,120
out there and we want to celebrate and

3965
02:40:01,120 --> 02:40:03,680
we want to congratulate every homeowner

3966
02:40:03,680 --> 02:40:06,319
that's taking this big step to help us

3967
02:40:06,319 --> 02:40:08,160
add to the tree canopy. And I feel like

3968
02:40:08,160 --> 02:40:10,479
I haven't been in the know and in the

3969
02:40:10,479 --> 02:40:12,960
loop as much as I I really want to say

3970
02:40:12,960 --> 02:40:14,960
as my calendar permits and I don't have

3971
02:40:14,960 --> 02:40:16,560
other duties assigned. I do want to come

3972
02:40:16,560 --> 02:40:18,640
and celebrate as often as we can or at

3973
02:40:18,640 --> 02:40:20,720
least a W three temp team member can be

3974
02:40:20,720 --> 02:40:23,120
there on my in mystead. So thank you so

3975
02:40:23,120 --> 02:40:25,120
much. Appreciate all the efforts.

3976
02:40:25,120 --> 02:40:27,990
>> Thank you. Anybody else? Miss Brunie.

3977
02:40:27,990 --> 02:40:28,000
» Thank you. Anybody else? Miss Brunie.

3978
02:40:28,000 --> 02:40:29,670
>> Thank you. Thanks Rachel for the

3979
02:40:29,670 --> 02:40:29,680
» Thank you. Thanks Rachel for the

3980
02:40:29,680 --> 02:40:31,200
presentation. I just had a clarifying

3981
02:40:31,200 --> 02:40:33,280
question. I know that you've mapped

3982
02:40:33,280 --> 02:40:35,040
where we have water fountains, but did

3983
02:40:35,040 --> 02:40:36,880
you say that we're also thinking about

3984
02:40:36,880 --> 02:40:39,600
adding some? And if we are, do we know

3985
02:40:39,600 --> 02:40:41,840
what the anticipated cost of adding a

3986
02:40:41,840 --> 02:40:43,680
water fountain is?

3987
02:40:43,680 --> 02:40:45,590
>> We have not reached out to public works

3988
02:40:45,590 --> 02:40:45,600
» We have not reached out to public works

3989
02:40:45,600 --> 02:40:48,160
yet to ask about that. Um, but the idea

3990
02:40:48,160 --> 02:40:50,960
is uh recommending to include water

3991
02:40:50,960 --> 02:40:54,000
fountains along a public rideway where

3992
02:40:54,000 --> 02:40:56,080
as people are walking or bicycling to

3993
02:40:56,080 --> 02:40:58,800
work that they also have access uh to

3994
02:40:58,800 --> 02:41:00,640
drinking water. but we're not sure in

3995
02:41:00,640 --> 02:41:02,960
terms of like the cost that it would be

3996
02:41:02,960 --> 02:41:05,280
um and how we would get access to the

3997
02:41:05,280 --> 02:41:07,200
the water to those areas.

3998
02:41:07,200 --> 02:41:09,590
>> And council, I would just add to that

3999
02:41:09,590 --> 02:41:09,600
» And council, I would just add to that

4000
02:41:09,600 --> 02:41:13,120
what came out of AB96 was a requirement

4001
02:41:13,120 --> 02:41:15,680
that we put in our master plan how we

4002
02:41:15,680 --> 02:41:18,720
are going to both map existing and also

4003
02:41:18,720 --> 02:41:21,280
plan for the future of adding new. So

4004
02:41:21,280 --> 02:41:23,120
this goes in our aspirational document

4005
02:41:23,120 --> 02:41:24,960
of the 2050 master plan. The next step

4006
02:41:24,960 --> 02:41:26,640
would be implementation which would be

4007
02:41:26,640 --> 02:41:28,160
looking at locations where we could add

4008
02:41:28,160 --> 02:41:29,760
those

4009
02:41:29,760 --> 02:41:31,359
Yes, Miss Kelly.

4010
02:41:31,359 --> 02:41:33,270
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. There was

4011
02:41:33,270 --> 02:41:33,280
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. There was

4012
02:41:33,280 --> 02:41:34,960
probably more of a comment, Seth, to you

4013
02:41:34,960 --> 02:41:39,040
and to the city manager.

4014
02:41:39,040 --> 02:41:41,280
I just want to make sure that when

4015
02:41:41,280 --> 02:41:43,280
everything we do needs to be through

4016
02:41:43,280 --> 02:41:46,000
this lens. So whether it's new projects

4017
02:41:46,000 --> 02:41:50,399
coming in to to community development or

4018
02:41:50,399 --> 02:41:53,040
we have, you know, we have this terrific

4019
02:41:53,040 --> 02:41:56,640
new RDA and and we're going to be able

4020
02:41:56,640 --> 02:41:59,920
to update local, you know, help help our

4021
02:41:59,920 --> 02:42:03,840
community, update the the areas, where

4022
02:42:03,840 --> 02:42:05,840
can we make sure there's another tree?

4023
02:42:05,840 --> 02:42:08,800
And I think a perfect example is uh what

4024
02:42:08,800 --> 02:42:10,880
we had in the the the gentleman who was

4025
02:42:10,880 --> 02:42:14,240
talking about the item in Ward 5. And I

4026
02:42:14,240 --> 02:42:16,160
really appreciated the council woman's

4027
02:42:16,160 --> 02:42:18,080
attention to the number of

4028
02:42:18,080 --> 02:42:19,830
>> your call has exceeded the maximum

4029
02:42:19,830 --> 02:42:19,840
» your call has exceeded the maximum

4030
02:42:19,840 --> 02:42:21,920
permitted duration. You will be

4031
02:42:21,920 --> 02:42:24,080
disconnected now. Goodbye.

4032
02:42:24,080 --> 02:42:28,710
>> Goodbye. And so I I really hope that um

4033
02:42:28,710 --> 02:42:28,720
» Goodbye. And so I I really hope that um

4034
02:42:28,720 --> 02:42:30,640
you know through public works, you know,

4035
02:42:30,640 --> 02:42:32,880
whatever we're doing, if we're if we're

4036
02:42:32,880 --> 02:42:34,560
tearing something up and we can add a

4037
02:42:34,560 --> 02:42:37,040
tree or if we're taking things out, it

4038
02:42:37,040 --> 02:42:39,760
should be part of every filter of what

4039
02:42:39,760 --> 02:42:41,280
we do. Thank you.

4040
02:42:41,280 --> 02:42:42,710
>> Thank you so much, Miss Summers

4041
02:42:42,710 --> 02:42:42,720
» Thank you so much, Miss Summers

4042
02:42:42,720 --> 02:42:44,000
Armstrong.

4043
02:42:44,000 --> 02:42:46,230
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. It is so amazing

4044
02:42:46,230 --> 02:42:46,240
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. It is so amazing

4045
02:42:46,240 --> 02:42:48,640
that we have such collaboration and

4046
02:42:48,640 --> 02:42:52,319
unity on this board for this issue. I'm

4047
02:42:52,319 --> 02:42:54,720
also uh representing one of the hot

4048
02:42:54,720 --> 02:42:57,359
areas on the heat island map. When I saw

4049
02:42:57,359 --> 02:43:00,720
that map in 2021, my first session in

4050
02:43:00,720 --> 02:43:03,040
the legislature, when I tell you it get

4051
02:43:03,040 --> 02:43:06,720
made me gasp. I knew it, but to see it

4052
02:43:06,720 --> 02:43:10,399
was overwhelming. And to see that the

4053
02:43:10,399 --> 02:43:12,479
city of Las Vegas is being intentional

4054
02:43:12,479 --> 02:43:15,040
about making a difference. I signed up

4055
02:43:15,040 --> 02:43:17,439
for my tree, okay? because I want two

4056
02:43:17,439 --> 02:43:20,560
trees and um in the front so that I can

4057
02:43:20,560 --> 02:43:24,640
be an example. We took this flyer to a

4058
02:43:24,640 --> 02:43:27,359
community meeting on Monday and to see

4059
02:43:27,359 --> 02:43:29,359
the excitement on people's faces and

4060
02:43:29,359 --> 02:43:30,960
then they were mad some of them well we

4061
02:43:30,960 --> 02:43:33,520
live in another municipality and I said

4062
02:43:33,520 --> 02:43:35,520
that's not my problem. The city of Las

4063
02:43:35,520 --> 02:43:38,000
Vegas is doing their part and so I think

4064
02:43:38,000 --> 02:43:39,680
what you are doing and your

4065
02:43:39,680 --> 02:43:42,800
intentionality is catching on. people

4066
02:43:42,800 --> 02:43:44,800
still don't know. So, we have to

4067
02:43:44,800 --> 02:43:47,439
continue to talk about it. Um, I'm going

4068
02:43:47,439 --> 02:43:49,439
to be an example and make sure that I'm

4069
02:43:49,439 --> 02:43:51,120
talking about it every opportunity I

4070
02:43:51,120 --> 02:43:55,279
get. And my question for Seth and M and

4071
02:43:55,279 --> 02:43:59,439
Mr. Soliss, uh, is are we allowed to ask

4072
02:43:59,439 --> 02:44:02,720
some of these things as actual

4073
02:44:02,720 --> 02:44:05,920
demands in, um, in our planning process?

4074
02:44:05,920 --> 02:44:08,399
because um I just saw that we have a new

4075
02:44:08,399 --> 02:44:11,279
fountain at um

4076
02:44:11,279 --> 02:44:13,359
um Ela Pearson. Thank you, Parks and

4077
02:44:13,359 --> 02:44:15,520
Recre. I've seen people use it all the

4078
02:44:15,520 --> 02:44:18,800
time. How do we get this stuff in as

4079
02:44:18,800 --> 02:44:20,960
mandatory? Like we said, the ice cream

4080
02:44:20,960 --> 02:44:22,960
shop that's on a hot street. That would

4081
02:44:22,960 --> 02:44:24,479
be great to have a little water fountain

4082
02:44:24,479 --> 02:44:27,279
out there. So, how do we integrate these

4083
02:44:27,279 --> 02:44:29,760
things? Solar panels,

4084
02:44:29,760 --> 02:44:33,120
um more trees and water so that where we

4085
02:44:33,120 --> 02:44:35,120
can, we take every opportunity.

4086
02:44:35,120 --> 02:44:36,389
>> Yeah. Thanks, Councilwoman Seth Foy for

4087
02:44:36,389 --> 02:44:36,399
» Yeah. Thanks, Councilwoman Seth Foy for

4088
02:44:36,399 --> 02:44:37,439
the record. And yes, thank you for

4089
02:44:37,439 --> 02:44:39,200
mentioning Fred. I forgot to introduce

4090
02:44:39,200 --> 02:44:40,399
Fred, who's been standing up here the

4091
02:44:40,399 --> 02:44:42,240
whole time. Fred Solis is our planning

4092
02:44:42,240 --> 02:44:44,160
manager. Uh he does a lot of work on

4093
02:44:44,160 --> 02:44:45,680
planning commission. So when these items

4094
02:44:45,680 --> 02:44:47,840
come uh up, he shepherds them through

4095
02:44:47,840 --> 02:44:51,600
that process. Uh so this is step one and

4096
02:44:51,600 --> 02:44:53,120
actually you already took a step. Rachel

4097
02:44:53,120 --> 02:44:54,800
had a slide up here about the urban

4098
02:44:54,800 --> 02:44:56,240
forestry management plan, which we

4099
02:44:56,240 --> 02:44:57,920
actually adopted back at the end of last

4100
02:44:57,920 --> 02:45:01,520
year. But this is really step one in

4101
02:45:01,520 --> 02:45:03,680
setting the goal of where we want to go

4102
02:45:03,680 --> 02:45:05,600
and the next steps are implementation.

4103
02:45:05,600 --> 02:45:08,080
We have in draft form. We've had a

4104
02:45:08,080 --> 02:45:09,279
couple over the years, but we've got one

4105
02:45:09,279 --> 02:45:10,479
that we're moving forward. Peter and I

4106
02:45:10,479 --> 02:45:11,520
actually just talked about it this

4107
02:45:11,520 --> 02:45:14,240
morning. Uh another a tree ordinance

4108
02:45:14,240 --> 02:45:16,080
that would actually add those specific

4109
02:45:16,080 --> 02:45:18,560
requirements you're talking about. Uh so

4110
02:45:18,560 --> 02:45:20,319
those things are moving along. We do

4111
02:45:20,319 --> 02:45:22,000
them. You know, not everything moves as

4112
02:45:22,000 --> 02:45:23,760
quickly as we'd like, but this is step

4113
02:45:23,760 --> 02:45:25,680
one. So it sets that priority for us to

4114
02:45:25,680 --> 02:45:27,760
then go and develop those rules and

4115
02:45:27,760 --> 02:45:28,880
guidelines to get those things

4116
02:45:28,880 --> 02:45:30,160
implemented. So I think this is and

4117
02:45:30,160 --> 02:45:31,520
you're already seeing even without this

4118
02:45:31,520 --> 02:45:34,160
plan uh if you look on Jackson, we've

4119
02:45:34,160 --> 02:45:36,240
done it on Main Street, Stewart, all of

4120
02:45:36,240 --> 02:45:38,399
those roadway projects are including a

4121
02:45:38,399 --> 02:45:40,160
lot more street trees. In fact, my team

4122
02:45:40,160 --> 02:45:41,920
did a management huddle where we went

4123
02:45:41,920 --> 02:45:43,520
out and did a little walkound on Jackson

4124
02:45:43,520 --> 02:45:44,960
and we were it was kind of hot so we

4125
02:45:44,960 --> 02:45:46,399
were standing under one of those

4126
02:45:46,399 --> 02:45:47,680
excellent shade trees that's going to

4127
02:45:47,680 --> 02:45:49,520
provide even more shade. So, uh, we're

4128
02:45:49,520 --> 02:45:50,880
already doing those things regardless of

4129
02:45:50,880 --> 02:45:52,399
the plan, but we can we're this is

4130
02:45:52,399 --> 02:45:53,439
certainly the step in the right

4131
02:45:53,439 --> 02:45:56,800
direction to get those implemented.

4132
02:45:56,800 --> 02:46:00,230
>> This good. Uh, this is an open hearing.

4133
02:46:00,230 --> 02:46:00,240
» This good. Uh, this is an open hearing.

4134
02:46:00,240 --> 02:46:02,160
Is there anybody that wishes to be heard

4135
02:46:02,160 --> 02:46:04,319
on this item before I entertain a

4136
02:46:04,319 --> 02:46:07,910
motion?

4137
02:46:07,920 --> 02:46:19,110
» Please come forward.

4138
02:46:19,120 --> 02:46:22,640
My name is Eric Melzde Christ Nimrod.

4139
02:46:22,640 --> 02:46:25,200
This heat mitigation situation is

4140
02:46:25,200 --> 02:46:26,960
fantastic.

4141
02:46:26,960 --> 02:46:29,920
It must be understood that trees ought

4142
02:46:29,920 --> 02:46:33,439
to be planted around bus stops also. And

4143
02:46:33,439 --> 02:46:37,040
it should be understood that a bus is a

4144
02:46:37,040 --> 02:46:40,800
cooling system. It's air conditioned.

4145
02:46:40,800 --> 02:46:44,319
It's a moving air conditioning

4146
02:46:44,319 --> 02:46:48,080
uh vehicle for the people.

4147
02:46:48,080 --> 02:46:52,160
Some are parked especially in BTC at the

4148
02:46:52,160 --> 02:46:56,240
BTC and they're running and they won't

4149
02:46:56,240 --> 02:47:01,279
let anybody get on them into the cool to

4150
02:47:01,279 --> 02:47:03,279
get out of the heat. So it must be

4151
02:47:03,279 --> 02:47:05,359
understood that part of this heat

4152
02:47:05,359 --> 02:47:08,800
mitigation situation should be that all

4153
02:47:08,800 --> 02:47:13,439
those those buses they'll be running and

4154
02:47:13,439 --> 02:47:16,640
nobody's allowed on them.

4155
02:47:16,640 --> 02:47:18,560
So that should be thought of in this

4156
02:47:18,560 --> 02:47:22,080
mitigation thing. the RTC

4157
02:47:22,080 --> 02:47:27,439
should be more um

4158
02:47:27,439 --> 02:47:29,600
should thank more of the people because

4159
02:47:29,600 --> 02:47:33,120
that would help a lot of what's going on

4160
02:47:33,120 --> 02:47:36,080
in this heat because I'm one who's

4161
02:47:36,080 --> 02:47:39,760
suffering from this threederee heat due

4162
02:47:39,760 --> 02:47:42,960
to the uh

4163
02:47:42,960 --> 02:47:46,880
low service by the RTC.

4164
02:47:46,880 --> 02:47:50,230
>> Thank you very much. Anyone

4165
02:47:50,230 --> 02:47:50,240
» Thank you very much. Anyone

4166
02:47:50,240 --> 02:47:52,800
else? Then I will close the public

4167
02:47:52,800 --> 02:47:56,479
hearing. I I have to say the moment of

4168
02:47:56,479 --> 02:47:59,120
personal privilege. My family moved to

4169
02:47:59,120 --> 02:48:01,760
Las Vegas in 1964

4170
02:48:01,760 --> 02:48:03,359
in the middle of the summer, right

4171
02:48:03,359 --> 02:48:05,680
around this time of year. I honestly

4172
02:48:05,680 --> 02:48:09,120
thought my family took me to hell. And I

4173
02:48:09,120 --> 02:48:12,560
am now I'm mayor of hell. And so I I'm

4174
02:48:12,560 --> 02:48:17,040
just so um so proud that to be mayor of

4175
02:48:17,040 --> 02:48:20,640
a city that understands the importance

4176
02:48:20,640 --> 02:48:24,640
of this and is not only working on heat

4177
02:48:24,640 --> 02:48:26,960
mitigation, but we're beautifying the

4178
02:48:26,960 --> 02:48:29,920
city as we go along. So thank you so

4179
02:48:29,920 --> 02:48:32,880
much for your extraordinary efforts um

4180
02:48:32,880 --> 02:48:35,840
on all of our behalfs. We appreciate it.

4181
02:48:35,840 --> 02:48:38,479
We recognize it and it's making a huge

4182
02:48:38,479 --> 02:48:40,160
difference. And with that, I will

4183
02:48:40,160 --> 02:48:42,960
entertain a motion of Mayor Prom.

4184
02:48:42,960 --> 02:48:44,950

recommends denial. Is the applicant

02:49:37,600 --> 02:49:38,880
present?

council, my name is Bob Gronower, 1980

4207
02:49:42,880 --> 02:49:44,880
Festival Plaza Drive. I'm here

4208
02:49:44,880 --> 02:49:46,640
representing the property owner and

4209
02:49:46,640 --> 02:49:48,720
applicant on this matter. Um, we're

4210
02:49:48,720 --> 02:49:50,640
asking for an extension of time here.

4211
02:49:50,640 --> 02:49:52,000
There was a condition that the planning

4212
02:49:52,000 --> 02:49:54,080
commission put on that states that this

4213
02:49:54,080 --> 02:49:56,080
application would be good until December

4214
02:49:56,080 --> 02:49:58,880
4th of 2026. And the reason for that is

4215
02:49:58,880 --> 02:50:00,560
is we're getting ready to come in with a

4216
02:50:00,560 --> 02:50:02,399
subsequent application in here for a

4217
02:50:02,399 --> 02:50:03,920
large end user on this piece of

4218
02:50:03,920 --> 02:50:05,600

4219
02:50:05,600 --> 02:50:07,120

planning commission's recommendation,

4222
02:50:11,600 --> 02:50:13,760
which also lines up with what you

approved for convenience store in this

4224
02:50:16,000 --> 02:50:17,600

4242
02:50:42,399 --> 02:50:44,160
the planning commission did amend

4243
02:50:44,160 --> 02:50:46,000
condition number one uh to have this

the council?

4251
02:50:59,760 --> 02:51:03,520
So, um, staff, explain to me what we are

4252
02:51:03,520 --> 02:51:06,080
requesting. You're asking for a complete

4253
02:51:06,080 --> 02:51:07,920
denial.

4254

this u a third extension of time, staff

4257
02:51:12,160 --> 02:51:14,160
will ordinarily recommend denial and

4258
02:51:14,160 --> 02:51:15,760
have the applicant come back with a new

4259
02:51:15,760 --> 02:51:16,960
application when they're ready to

4260
02:51:16,960 --> 02:51:19,279
develop.

4266

reason what their recommendation is this

4267
02:51:26,479 --> 02:51:29,359
was previously approved for part of a

4268
02:51:29,359 --> 02:51:32,080
Costco site. Uh this Costco is going to

4269
02:51:32,080 --> 02:51:35,040
originally go here. Unfortunately, uh

4270
02:51:35,040 --> 02:51:37,040
that fell out of the deal. They're

4271
02:51:37,040 --> 02:51:38,720
Costco's looking for another place to

4272
02:51:38,720 --> 02:51:40,960
go. We have another big enduser that's

4273
02:51:40,960 --> 02:51:44,399
here that um hopefully I I'm told

4274
02:51:44,399 --> 02:51:46,399
Friday, Monday that we'll know that

4275
02:51:46,399 --> 02:51:48,160
we'll officially be able to say who the

4276
02:51:48,160 --> 02:51:50,160
end user is. We've been working very

4277
02:51:50,160 --> 02:51:52,479
closely with councilwoman in this um in

4278
02:51:52,479 --> 02:51:54,960
this area, Councilwoman Brunie. So, the

4279
02:51:54,960 --> 02:51:56,479
way we look at this, there's no harm

4280
02:51:56,479 --> 02:51:58,160
here by approving this application

4281
02:51:58,160 --> 02:52:00,160
because what we're telling you is if we

4282
02:52:00,160 --> 02:52:03,600
don't have this enduser in and submit

4283
02:52:03,600 --> 02:52:06,080
our application before December 4th,

4284
02:52:06,080 --> 02:52:07,920
that application's gone. We're not

4285
02:52:07,920 --> 02:52:09,359
coming back here and you're not going to

4286
02:52:09,359 --> 02:52:11,760
see us for the convenience store or the

4287
02:52:11,760 --> 02:52:14,479
car wash. So, we just need this in here

4288
02:52:14,479 --> 02:52:16,720
so we can finalize the deal with our end

4289
02:52:16,720 --> 02:52:19,200
user. and then you'll like the end user

4290
02:52:19,200 --> 02:52:20,560
that's going to be coming in here if

4291
02:52:20,560 --> 02:52:22,640
this all comes to fruition. And if not,

4292
02:52:22,640 --> 02:52:23,760
you're not going to see us here in

4293
02:52:23,760 --> 02:52:25,279
December asking for an extension of

4294
02:52:25,279 --> 02:52:25,920

4325
02:53:27,600 --> 02:53:29,590
>> Would you care to tell us about your

4326
02:53:29,590 --> 02:53:29,600
» Would you care to tell us about your

4327
02:53:29,600 --> 02:53:30,240
project?

4328
02:53:30,240 --> 02:53:33,030
>> Uh yes. This is regarding uh the

4329
02:53:33,030 --> 02:53:33,040
» Uh yes. This is regarding uh the

4330
02:53:33,040 --> 02:53:36,800
construction of CSN's campus in the

4331
02:53:36,800 --> 02:53:39,760
Northwest. And the purpose of the action

4332
02:53:39,760 --> 02:53:43,040
item before you is relatively simple. Uh

4333
02:53:43,040 --> 02:53:44,800
basically

4334
02:53:44,800 --> 02:53:48,640
um the Nevada system of higher education

4335
02:53:48,640 --> 02:53:53,920
and the city of on behalf of of CSN

4336
02:53:53,920 --> 02:53:55,920
and the city of Las Vegas had entered

4337
02:53:55,920 --> 02:53:58,880
into a cooperative agreement on July

4338
02:53:58,880 --> 02:54:02,960
20th, 2017. Um, subsequent to that, the

4339
02:54:02,960 --> 02:54:05,600
BLM issued basically an amended land

4340
02:54:05,600 --> 02:54:08,880
patent and each agreement contains

4341
02:54:08,880 --> 02:54:10,800
differing terms regarding the

4342
02:54:10,800 --> 02:54:13,760
construction date for for um a building

4343
02:54:13,760 --> 02:54:16,160
to be completed on that Northwest

4344
02:54:16,160 --> 02:54:18,960
campus. Under the initial cooperative

4345
02:54:18,960 --> 02:54:21,840
agreement, CSN had eight years from the

4346
02:54:21,840 --> 02:54:23,600
transfer of the land from the United

4347
02:54:23,600 --> 02:54:25,520
States government to the Nevada system

4348
02:54:25,520 --> 02:54:27,920
of higher education to construct at

4349
02:54:27,920 --> 02:54:31,040
least one educational building. However,

4350
02:54:31,040 --> 02:54:33,920
when we got the amended land patent uh

4351
02:54:33,920 --> 02:54:36,000
from the United States that provided

4352
02:54:36,000 --> 02:54:38,319
different language and said that CSS Zen

4353
02:54:38,319 --> 02:54:41,279
shall complete the first building or

4354
02:54:41,279 --> 02:54:43,600
show progress towards the development of

4355
02:54:43,600 --> 02:54:45,600
the College of Southern Nevada campus

4356
02:54:45,600 --> 02:54:49,359
within 12 years um of when the land was

4357
02:54:49,359 --> 02:54:52,319
conveyed to Eni. And so the action item

4358
02:54:52,319 --> 02:54:56,880
before you is basically to um approve

4359
02:54:56,880 --> 02:54:59,040
the first amendment to the cooperative

4360
02:54:59,040 --> 02:55:01,600
agreement. So the language in the

4361
02:55:01,600 --> 02:55:04,640
subsequent land patent is in alignment

4362
02:55:04,640 --> 02:55:08,160
and gives CSN 12 years.

4363
02:55:08,160 --> 02:55:09,910
>> Thank you so much. May I have a staff

4364
02:55:09,910 --> 02:55:09,920
» Thank you so much. May I have a staff

4365
02:55:09,920 --> 02:55:11,120

» Yes, madame mayor. The proposed

4368
02:55:12,640 --> 02:55:15,040
amendment complies with all NRS 278 and

4369
02:55:15,040 --> 02:55:16,880
title 19 requirements. The amended

4370
02:55:16,880 --> 02:55:18,479
updates the development agreement with

4371
02:55:18,479 --> 02:55:20,399
more accurate information pertaining to

4372
02:55:20,399 --> 02:55:22,000
the date in which the land was conveyed

4373
02:55:22,000 --> 02:55:23,359
from the US government to the College of

4374
02:55:23,359 --> 02:55:25,600
Southern Nevada as well as provides a

4375
02:55:25,600 --> 02:55:27,439
review mechanism for the city council to

4376
02:55:27,439 --> 02:55:28,880
monitor progress at the development of

4377
02:55:28,880 --> 02:55:31,600
the Northwest campus. No other portions

4378
02:55:31,600 --> 02:55:33,200
of agreement have been modified and

4379
02:55:33,200 --> 02:55:34,640
staff recommends approval of the

4380
02:55:34,640 --> 02:55:36,319
request. Thank you.

4381
02:55:36,319 --> 02:55:38,550
>> Thank you so much. Uh this is a public

4382
02:55:38,550 --> 02:55:38,560

4383

4488
02:59:38,160 --> 02:59:40,150
>> Yes, absolutely. Thank you, mayor, mayor

4489
02:59:40,150 --> 02:59:40,160
» Yes, absolutely. Thank you, mayor, mayor

4490
02:59:40,160 --> 02:59:42,960
prom council for rescending the motion

4491
02:59:42,960 --> 02:59:44,720
and allowing us to be here today. It's

4492
02:59:44,720 --> 02:59:47,920
greatly appreciated. Um in 2021 when

4493
02:59:47,920 --> 02:59:49,840
clean While Clean Cars Nevada was

4494
02:59:49,840 --> 02:59:52,319
adopted, there were 17,000 EVs on the

4495
02:59:52,319 --> 02:59:54,800
road. Nevada now ranks third nationally

4496
02:59:54,800 --> 02:59:58,399
with 65,000 EVs on the road. There is a

4497
02:59:58,399 --> 03:00:00,560
lacking infrastructure. For example, we

4498
03:00:00,560 --> 03:00:02,640
did a surrounding search of 60 square

4499
03:00:02,640 --> 03:00:06,800
miles and we only found 27 DC fast

4500
03:00:06,800 --> 03:00:08,960
chargers. To put that into comparison,

4501
03:00:08,960 --> 03:00:11,200
there are 3,300 gas pumps in the same

4502
03:00:11,200 --> 03:00:13,920
square mile area. We're proposing 16

4503
03:00:13,920 --> 03:00:16,160
chargers on a parking facility. Benefits

4504
03:00:16,160 --> 03:00:18,720
to the communities include lo building

4505
03:00:18,720 --> 03:00:20,399
the local community, offering the

4506
03:00:20,399 --> 03:00:22,319
fastest charging speeds available on the

4507
03:00:22,319 --> 03:00:25,040
market, and increasing public safety by

4508
03:00:25,040 --> 03:00:27,279
reducing risk for bad battery efficiency

4509
03:00:27,279 --> 03:00:30,160
loss caused by the heat locally. We will

4510
03:00:30,160 --> 03:00:32,399
also be eliminating an empty lot, which

4511
03:00:32,399 --> 03:00:34,160
we just heard the problems that that can

4512
03:00:34,160 --> 03:00:36,560
create. We met with the planning

4513
03:00:36,560 --> 03:00:38,319
commission and were asked to put in a

4514
03:00:38,319 --> 03:00:39,920
north buffer. We've done that. We have

4515
03:00:39,920 --> 03:00:42,080
added landscaping to that buffer. We

4516
03:00:42,080 --> 03:00:44,160
have also added canopies. Uh this

4517
03:00:44,160 --> 03:00:45,840
project will be done in two phases. We

4518
03:00:45,840 --> 03:00:49,279
are proposing to uh add the 16 charges

4519
03:00:49,279 --> 03:00:51,279
across two phases. Uh with that I will

4520
03:00:51,279 --> 03:00:53,040
ask if there are any questions.

4521
03:00:53,040 --> 03:00:54,950
>> Thank you so much. May I have a staff

4522
03:00:54,950 --> 03:00:54,960
» Thank you so much. May I have a staff

4523
03:00:54,960 --> 03:00:56,160
report please?

4524
03:00:56,160 --> 03:00:58,710
>> Yes madam mayor. Uh the parking facility

4525
03:00:58,710 --> 03:00:58,720
» Yes madam mayor. Uh the parking facility

4526
03:00:58,720 --> 03:01:01,040
is proposed on a vacant property zone uh

4527
03:01:01,040 --> 03:01:02,800
limited commercial. The site is directly

4528
03:01:02,800 --> 03:01:04,560
adjacent to single family residential

4529
03:01:04,560 --> 03:01:06,240
subdivision to the north and a shopping

4530
03:01:06,240 --> 03:01:08,560
center development to the east. Vehicle

4531
03:01:08,560 --> 03:01:10,319
charging operation intend to serve

4532
03:01:10,319 --> 03:01:12,240
general public 24 hours per day, seven

4533
03:01:12,240 --> 03:01:14,319
days per week. And the facility is

4534
03:01:14,319 --> 03:01:17,040
proposing as mentioned 16 electric

4535
03:01:17,040 --> 03:01:19,279
vehicle charging post specifically

4536
03:01:19,279 --> 03:01:21,120
serving Tesla vehicles and four Tesla

4537
03:01:21,120 --> 03:01:23,040
power cabinets. Although it will be

4538
03:01:23,040 --> 03:01:24,800
screened from view, the location of the

4539
03:01:24,800 --> 03:01:26,319
proposed mechanical equipment near

4540
03:01:26,319 --> 03:01:28,800
residential property is a concern. Pad

4541
03:01:28,800 --> 03:01:30,479
mount transformers and proposed Tesla

4542
03:01:30,479 --> 03:01:32,240
power cabinets are typically low noise

4543
03:01:32,240 --> 03:01:34,000
generators under normal operation and

4544
03:01:34,000 --> 03:01:35,279
generally meet the noise requirements

4545
03:01:35,279 --> 03:01:38,479
until 19. However, this equipment should

4546
03:01:38,479 --> 03:01:40,399
be cited away from residential property

4547
03:01:40,399 --> 03:01:42,560
to minimize nuisance. In addition, the

4548
03:01:42,560 --> 03:01:44,160
proposed development requires waiverss

4549
03:01:44,160 --> 03:01:45,520
of perimeter landscape buffer

4550
03:01:45,520 --> 03:01:46,960
requirements and exceptions of parking

4551
03:01:46,960 --> 03:01:48,640
lot landscaping and trash enclosure

4552
03:01:48,640 --> 03:01:50,560
location, which staff does not support

4553
03:01:50,560 --> 03:01:52,240
and therefore recommends denial of the

4554
03:01:52,240 --> 03:01:54,160
request. Uh, and at the time of the

4555
03:01:54,160 --> 03:01:55,520
motion, if the counciloman has any

4556
03:01:55,520 --> 03:01:57,840
additional um request, I'll take care of

4557
03:01:57,840 --> 03:01:59,600
those at that time. Thank you.

4558
03:01:59,600 --> 03:02:02,309
>> Thank you so much. Um, this is a public

4559
03:02:02,309 --> 03:02:02,319
» Thank you so much. Um, this is a public

4560
03:02:02,319 --> 03:02:04,479
hearing. Is there anybody wishing to be

4561
03:02:04,479 --> 03:02:06,720
heard on this item?

4562
03:02:06,720 --> 03:02:09,279
I'll close the public hearing. Does the

4563
03:02:09,279 --> 03:02:11,200
applicant Well, let let me hear first

4564
03:02:11,200 --> 03:02:13,279
from Are there any questions or comments

4565
03:02:13,279 --> 03:02:16,240
from members of the council.

4566
03:02:16,240 --> 03:02:18,560
I'd like to hear from Miss Summers

4567
03:02:18,560 --> 03:02:20,080
Armstrong.

4568
03:02:20,080 --> 03:02:21,910
>> Thank you, Madam Mayor. Can you please

4569
03:02:21,910 --> 03:02:21,920
» Thank you, Madam Mayor. Can you please

4570
03:02:21,920 --> 03:02:25,439
uh lay out your um your plan so that my

4571
03:02:25,439 --> 03:02:26,960
colleagues can see what you have in

4572
03:02:26,960 --> 03:02:36,389
mind?

4573
03:02:36,399 --> 03:02:38,880
Okay. So, just for some points of

4574
03:02:38,880 --> 03:02:41,840
clarification, these charging stations,

4575
03:02:41,840 --> 03:02:44,080
as you are proposing, would be open to

4576
03:02:44,080 --> 03:02:46,720
any type of vehicle. They have adapters

4577
03:02:46,720 --> 03:02:48,880
where they're not just one brand, but

4578
03:02:48,880 --> 03:02:50,240
can be used by all.

4579
03:02:50,240 --> 03:02:51,349
>> That's correct. They're equipped with

4580
03:02:51,349 --> 03:02:51,359
» That's correct. They're equipped with

4581
03:02:51,359 --> 03:02:53,120
Magic Ducks, so drivers will not need to

4582
03:02:53,120 --> 03:02:54,720
provide their own adapters.

4583
03:02:54,720 --> 03:02:56,550
>> Okay. And then we had an issue about

4584
03:02:56,550 --> 03:02:56,560
» Okay. And then we had an issue about

4585
03:02:56,560 --> 03:03:00,160
landscaping um to give some shielding to

4586
03:03:00,160 --> 03:03:02,800
the uh residential property that is

4587
03:03:02,800 --> 03:03:04,800
immediately adjacent to the north. Could

4588
03:03:04,800 --> 03:03:07,279
you please lay out what it is that we

4589
03:03:07,279 --> 03:03:08,080
are looking at?

4590
03:03:08,080 --> 03:03:09,910
>> That is this area right along here.

4591
03:03:09,910 --> 03:03:09,920
» That is this area right along here.

4592
03:03:09,920 --> 03:03:11,670
>> Talk to us about what you're planning.

4593
03:03:11,670 --> 03:03:11,680
» Talk to us about what you're planning.

4594
03:03:11,680 --> 03:03:14,070
>> We have added four of the paleo verde

4595
03:03:14,070 --> 03:03:14,080
» We have added four of the paleo verde

4596
03:03:14,080 --> 03:03:16,000
and then for every four of those we've

4597
03:03:16,000 --> 03:03:17,920
added shrubs. So for there's one for

4598
03:03:17,920 --> 03:03:20,160
four um to keep the ratio. There's a

4599
03:03:20,160 --> 03:03:24,800
total of 19 24 inch trees on the on the

4600
03:03:24,800 --> 03:03:28,160
property total and there are I believe

4601
03:03:28,160 --> 03:03:32,960
there's 28 of the da daan wheelery um 48

4602
03:03:32,960 --> 03:03:37,520
of the foriba tukalli and we added some

4603
03:03:37,520 --> 03:03:41,120
um some cacti just as optional.

4604
03:03:41,120 --> 03:03:44,309
>> Okay, thank you. Um,

4605
03:03:44,309 --> 03:03:44,319
» Okay, thank you. Um,

4606
03:03:44,319 --> 03:03:45,920
have you thought about limiting the

4607
03:03:45,920 --> 03:03:48,319
hours of operation so that it is not

4608
03:03:48,319 --> 03:03:51,520
disturbing at uh or at least controlling

4609
03:03:51,520 --> 03:03:53,840
the pumps that are nearest to the

4610
03:03:53,840 --> 03:03:56,399
residential after a certain number of

4611
03:03:56,399 --> 03:03:59,600
hours. Um, so anything

4612
03:03:59,600 --> 03:04:02,399
right near the the um the garbage

4613
03:04:02,399 --> 03:04:04,160
enclosure because that's pretty close to

4614
03:04:04,160 --> 03:04:05,359
residents as well.

4615
03:04:05,359 --> 03:04:08,630
>> Sure. Um that that I would have to come

4616
03:04:08,630 --> 03:04:08,640
» Sure. Um that that I would have to come

4617
03:04:08,640 --> 03:04:12,000
back for. Um the primary purpose of this

4618
03:04:12,000 --> 03:04:15,600
parcel is to get drivers access 24/7 to

4619
03:04:15,600 --> 03:04:18,240
charging. So to limit the business hours

4620
03:04:18,240 --> 03:04:20,479
would be a significant problem.

4621
03:04:20,479 --> 03:04:23,349
>> Okay. Um when we're talking about the um

4622
03:04:23,349 --> 03:04:23,359
» Okay. Um when we're talking about the um

4623
03:04:23,359 --> 03:04:26,800
the shade structures um I would I would

4624
03:04:26,800 --> 03:04:30,720
like um to propose that they are fixed

4625
03:04:30,720 --> 03:04:32,399
structures that are not made out of

4626
03:04:32,399 --> 03:04:35,840
fabric so that they don't um I know that

4627
03:04:35,840 --> 03:04:39,279
you're you're from California as am I.

4628
03:04:39,279 --> 03:04:42,240
Uh the heat here is a shock. Um, and it

4629
03:04:42,240 --> 03:04:44,880
also does damage, significant damage to

4630
03:04:44,880 --> 03:04:48,640
any any fabric. Um, anything made out of

4631
03:04:48,640 --> 03:04:50,800
a plastic material, it is going to go

4632
03:04:50,800 --> 03:04:54,000
away. It will not last. So, um I've

4633
03:04:54,000 --> 03:04:58,080
talked to Peter in the uh um community

4634
03:04:58,080 --> 03:05:01,279
development and asked him to uh create

4635
03:05:01,279 --> 03:05:04,479
something which would be um a need which

4636
03:05:04,479 --> 03:05:05,920
would that whatever those shade

4637
03:05:05,920 --> 03:05:08,240
structures are would be made of

4638
03:05:08,240 --> 03:05:10,319
something like steel, architectural

4639
03:05:10,319 --> 03:05:12,960
grade aluminum or aluma wood, but

4640
03:05:12,960 --> 03:05:16,240
something that is going to last. And if

4641
03:05:16,240 --> 03:05:19,920
you all can have those um work with

4642
03:05:19,920 --> 03:05:21,840
someone where we can get some energy

4643
03:05:21,840 --> 03:05:23,920
produced out of that would make a lot of

4644
03:05:23,920 --> 03:05:27,279
sense to have uh that so that it can you

4645
03:05:27,279 --> 03:05:29,120
know run the lights underneath which

4646
03:05:29,120 --> 03:05:31,200
should be controlled. So I think that

4647
03:05:31,200 --> 03:05:33,439
there's some still a few things that

4648
03:05:33,439 --> 03:05:36,240
need to be clarified. If your covers

4649
03:05:36,240 --> 03:05:38,160
have lights, making sure there's not a

4650
03:05:38,160 --> 03:05:40,640
lot of uh noise from the lights onto the

4651
03:05:40,640 --> 03:05:43,520
property. Uh I am concerned about 24

4652
03:05:43,520 --> 03:05:45,840
hours. Um, we'll give it a minute and

4653
03:05:45,840 --> 03:05:49,279
and can we revisit this and see if we

4654
03:05:49,279 --> 03:05:52,880
have any um um have an administrative

4655
03:05:52,880 --> 03:05:54,960
review in a year to see if we've had any

4656
03:05:54,960 --> 03:05:57,279
complaints from neighbors about noise,

4657
03:05:57,279 --> 03:05:59,200
people playing their music while they're

4658
03:05:59,200 --> 03:06:00,960
charging their and it's disturbing the

4659
03:06:00,960 --> 03:06:02,800
neighbors. Um, those folks have been

4660
03:06:02,800 --> 03:06:05,200
here way longer. So, we want to make

4661
03:06:05,200 --> 03:06:06,720
sure that we're respecting

4662
03:06:06,720 --> 03:06:08,710
>> them. Regard the canopy, we have I

4663
03:06:08,710 --> 03:06:08,720
» them. Regard the canopy, we have I

4664
03:06:08,720 --> 03:06:10,240
provided conceptuals. These are

4665
03:06:10,240 --> 03:06:12,080
conceptuals. The height of the canopy

4666
03:06:12,080 --> 03:06:14,800
will be about uh 13 to 15 feet. They

4667
03:06:14,800 --> 03:06:16,399
will be made of aluminum steel. They

4668
03:06:16,399 --> 03:06:17,920
will be fixed. There will be solar

4669
03:06:17,920 --> 03:06:19,760
panels on top.

4670
03:06:19,760 --> 03:06:20,070
>> Wonderful.

4671
03:06:20,070 --> 03:06:20,080
» Wonderful.

4672
03:06:20,080 --> 03:06:21,510
>> And there will be lights.

4673
03:06:21,510 --> 03:06:21,520
» And there will be lights.

4674
03:06:21,520 --> 03:06:23,670
>> Wonderful. Pete, do Peter, do you need

4675
03:06:23,670 --> 03:06:23,680
» Wonderful. Pete, do Peter, do you need

4676
03:06:23,680 --> 03:06:29,279
to read the um that um piece in

4677
03:06:29,279 --> 03:06:31,190
>> uh through you, Madam Mayor? Yes. I I

4678
03:06:31,190 --> 03:06:31,200
» uh through you, Madam Mayor? Yes. I I

4679
03:06:31,200 --> 03:06:33,600
was just working on the uh admin I'm

4680
03:06:33,600 --> 03:06:35,040
assuming an administrative required

4681
03:06:35,040 --> 03:06:38,479
review. Um so to the first part about

4682
03:06:38,479 --> 03:06:41,840
the materials um planning commission did

4683
03:06:41,840 --> 03:06:44,960
add a condition. It's condition B within

4684
03:06:44,960 --> 03:06:48,319
the staff report on on the psych review.

4685
03:06:48,319 --> 03:06:50,560
It currently reads provide carports or

4686
03:06:50,560 --> 03:06:52,000
shade structures over each of the

4687
03:06:52,000 --> 03:06:53,600
electrical charging stations along the

4688
03:06:53,600 --> 03:06:55,920
east property line. We would amend and

4689
03:06:55,920 --> 03:06:58,880
add to that condition. The car ports or

4690
03:06:58,880 --> 03:07:01,040
shade structures are to be made of

4691
03:07:01,040 --> 03:07:02,720
either steel architectural grade

4692
03:07:02,720 --> 03:07:06,319
aluminum and or aluminum wood. And then

4693
03:07:06,319 --> 03:07:08,319
I would be adding an additional

4694
03:07:08,319 --> 03:07:10,240
condition of approval to that site

4695
03:07:10,240 --> 03:07:12,560
development review which would read an

4696
03:07:12,560 --> 03:07:14,399
administrative required review shall be

4697
03:07:14,399 --> 03:07:18,479
conducted one year from the date of um

4698
03:07:18,479 --> 03:07:21,600
business license issuance.

4699
03:07:21,600 --> 03:07:23,190
>> Does the applicant agree to the

03:07:23,190 --> 03:07:23,200
» Does the applicant agree to the

conditions?

4702
03:07:23,760 --> 03:07:24,870
>> Yes, we do.

4703
03:07:24,870 --> 03:07:24,880
» Yes, we do.

4704
03:07:24,880 --> 03:07:26,309
>> All right. I'll entertain a motion.

4705
03:07:26,309 --> 03:07:26,319
» All right. I'll entertain a motion.

4706
03:07:26,319 --> 03:07:28,240
Madam Mayor, I have a question about

4707
03:07:28,240 --> 03:07:30,640
Ma'am, I have a question about the

4708
03:07:30,640 --> 03:07:32,240
condition

4709
03:07:32,240 --> 03:07:33,840
um

4710
03:07:33,840 --> 03:07:37,200
regarding what Councilwoman Shandra

4711
03:07:37,200 --> 03:07:39,920
Armstrong, Shondaanda Summers Armstrong,

4712
03:07:39,920 --> 03:07:42,800
pardon me, requested. Is it a simple

4713
03:07:42,800 --> 03:07:46,080
thing and is it appropriate to have to

4714
03:07:46,080 --> 03:07:49,279
ask the applicant to put in signs at the

4715
03:07:49,279 --> 03:07:52,000
charging station and ask to be

4716
03:07:52,000 --> 03:07:56,160
respectful of the neighbors and to keep

4717
03:07:56,160 --> 03:08:00,000
the music or activity low and to a

4718
03:08:00,000 --> 03:08:02,880
minimum?

4719
03:08:02,880 --> 03:08:05,279
I'm I'm really I don't know if that's an

4720
03:08:05,279 --> 03:08:06,960
appropriate question to ask.

4721
03:08:06,960 --> 03:08:09,190
>> I'm sure it's an appropriate question.

4722
03:08:09,190 --> 03:08:09,200
» I'm sure it's an appropriate question.

4723
03:08:09,200 --> 03:08:12,319
Um, uh, Miss Summers Armstrong, is that

4724
03:08:12,319 --> 03:08:13,760
something you would like to incorporate

4725
03:08:13,760 --> 03:08:16,640
into your motion?

4726
03:08:16,640 --> 03:08:20,469
>> Uh, Mr. Attorney, what kind of, uh, room

4727
03:08:20,469 --> 03:08:20,479
» Uh, Mr. Attorney, what kind of, uh, room

4728
03:08:20,479 --> 03:08:22,560
do we have on something like that?

4729
03:08:22,560 --> 03:08:23,910
>> Well, as the mayor said, yeah, it's a

4730
03:08:23,910 --> 03:08:23,920
» Well, as the mayor said, yeah, it's a

4731
03:08:23,920 --> 03:08:25,760
perfectly appropriate and fine question.

4732
03:08:25,760 --> 03:08:27,680
Um,

4733
03:08:27,680 --> 03:08:30,640
if if if you'd like to lay it out, I I

4734
03:08:30,640 --> 03:08:32,160
don't have an issue with it. I think the

4735
03:08:32,160 --> 03:08:33,840
applicant might be amendable, it looks

4736
03:08:33,840 --> 03:08:34,479
like. So,

4737
03:08:34,479 --> 03:08:36,389
>> I'll defer to the council woman. It was

4738
03:08:36,389 --> 03:08:36,399
» I'll defer to the council woman. It was

4739
03:08:36,399 --> 03:08:38,399
just an idea I thought of. Thank you.

4740
03:08:38,399 --> 03:08:41,439
Thank you, um, Miss Kelly. And, um, I

4741
03:08:41,439 --> 03:08:43,200
don't always get everything in what I'm

4742
03:08:43,200 --> 03:08:44,560
thinking. Then afterwards, it'll be

4743
03:08:44,560 --> 03:08:45,600
like, "Oh my goodness, I should have

4744
03:08:45,600 --> 03:08:47,760
asked for this. Thank you for suggesting

4745
03:08:47,760 --> 03:08:50,240
it." I think it would be appropriate,

4746
03:08:50,240 --> 03:08:52,479
especially at those stalls that are

4747
03:08:52,479 --> 03:08:55,920
nearest to the um the residents. Just

4748
03:08:55,920 --> 03:08:59,120
ask people, you know, after 9:00 p.m.,

4749
03:08:59,120 --> 03:09:02,640
between 9 and, you know, 7, you know,

4750
03:09:02,640 --> 03:09:04,640
please don't play your music. And we'll

4751
03:09:04,640 --> 03:09:06,560
see. And hopefully that'll mean that

4752
03:09:06,560 --> 03:09:08,560
when we come back for the the review in

4753
03:09:08,560 --> 03:09:10,560
a year, we won't have anyone

4754
03:09:10,560 --> 03:09:12,319
complaining.

4755
03:09:12,319 --> 03:09:13,750
>> Absolutely. We can do that.

4756
03:09:13,750 --> 03:09:13,760
» Absolutely. We can do that.

4757
03:09:13,760 --> 03:09:15,190

» All right. You're comfortable with that

4759

» Absolutely.

4762
03:09:16,479 --> 03:09:18,230
>> All right. In that case, Miss Summers

4763
03:09:18,230 --> 03:09:18,240
» All right. In that case, Miss Summers

4764
03:09:18,240 --> 03:09:20,399
Armstrong, I will entertain a motion.

4765

>> So moved.

4766
03:09:22,550 --> 03:09:22,560

might do for a park.

was just I like what I like about it is

4795
03:10:12,080 --> 03:10:13,920
it shows that the council woman in the

4796

city thought about it and so it's we're

4797
03:10:17,680 --> 03:10:19,359
being proactive and I think that's

4798
03:10:19,359 --> 03:10:21,760

regard so then it at least triggers uh

4808
03:10:37,279 --> 03:10:39,680
back to a section of code but Jeeoff I

4809
03:10:39,680 --> 03:10:41,359
don't know if that's specific

4810
03:10:41,359 --> 03:10:43,269
>> Jeff Dorg city attorney that sounds fine

4811
03:10:43,269 --> 03:10:43,279
» Jeff Dorg city attorney that sounds fine

4812
03:10:43,279 --> 03:10:45,439
to me so does Peter's original language

4813
03:10:45,439 --> 03:10:47,439
I mean the intent there is clear there's

4814
03:10:47,439 --> 03:10:49,359
going to be some signage saying don't be

4815
03:10:49,359 --> 03:10:52,000
loud with various noise types the way

4816
03:10:52,000 --> 03:10:55,040
the the wording is on your end. Just

4817
03:10:55,040 --> 03:10:56,720
make sure that's covered when they go to

4818
03:10:56,720 --> 03:10:57,040
look.

4819
03:10:57,040 --> 03:10:57,990
>> We can do that.

4820
03:10:57,990 --> 03:10:58,000
» We can do that.

4821
03:10:58,000 --> 03:11:00,550
>> All right,

4822
03:11:00,550 --> 03:11:00,560
» All right,

4823
03:11:00,560 --> 03:11:02,550
>> Miss Summers Armstrong. Well, actually,

4824
03:11:02,550 --> 03:11:02,560
» Miss Summers Armstrong. Well, actually,

4825
03:11:02,560 --> 03:11:05,200
there is a motion on the table. Please

4826
03:11:05,200 --> 03:11:05,920
vote.

4827
03:11:05,920 --> 03:11:07,269
>> All right. Should I give it one more

4828
03:11:07,269 --> 03:11:07,279
» All right. Should I give it one more

4829
03:11:07,279 --> 03:11:08,720
read through so it's clear on that?

4830
03:11:08,720 --> 03:11:10,950
>> Yeah, I I think we'd all appreciate it.

4831
03:11:10,950 --> 03:11:10,960
» Yeah, I I think we'd all appreciate it.

4832
03:11:10,960 --> 03:11:13,190
>> All right. Thank you. So, that that

4833
03:11:13,190 --> 03:11:13,200
» All right. Thank you. So, that that

4834
03:11:13,200 --> 03:11:14,800
other added conditions, on-site signage

4835
03:11:14,800 --> 03:11:16,160
shall be provided requiring general

4836
03:11:16,160 --> 03:11:17,680
courtesy for the neighboring properties

4837
03:11:17,680 --> 03:11:21,680
by eliminating noise and disturbances.

4838
03:11:21,680 --> 03:11:24,000
Please vote.

4839
03:11:24,000 --> 03:11:28,319
Post. Motion carries. Thank you.

4840
03:11:28,319 --> 03:11:30,150
>> Thank you so much. We'll see you next

4841
03:11:30,150 --> 03:11:30,160
» Thank you so much. We'll see you next

4842
03:11:30,160 --> 03:11:33,349
year.

4843
03:11:33,359 --> 03:11:36,160
Agenda item 46. This item was heard

4844
03:11:36,160 --> 03:11:39,990
earlier in the meeting.

4845
03:11:40,000 --> 03:11:43,279
Agenda item 47, set date on any appeals

4846
03:11:43,279 --> 03:11:45,760
filed or required public hearings. I

4847
03:11:45,760 --> 03:11:47,840
would instruct the city clerk to set the

4848
03:11:47,840 --> 03:11:50,080
public hearing dates and appeals from

4849
03:11:50,080 --> 03:11:52,000
the city planning commission meetings

4850
03:11:52,000 --> 03:11:54,640
and dangerous buildings or nuisance

4851
03:11:54,640 --> 03:11:56,000
litter abatements.

4852
03:11:56,000 --> 03:11:57,190
>> We'll do. Thank you.

4853
03:11:57,190 --> 03:11:57,200
» We'll do. Thank you.

4854
03:11:57,200 --> 03:12:01,990
>> Thank you so much. And I before we um

4855
03:12:01,990 --> 03:12:02,000
» Thank you so much. And I before we um

4856
03:12:02,000 --> 03:12:04,479
continue, I just wanted to acknowledge

4857
03:12:04,479 --> 03:12:08,080
our uh legal intern again, Haley

4858
03:12:08,080 --> 03:12:10,880
Burgerer. Thank you so much for being a

4859
03:12:10,880 --> 03:12:15,830
part of our summer here in the city.

4860
03:12:15,840 --> 03:12:18,080
I think Jeff told me he wanted to offer

4861
03:12:18,080 --> 03:12:20,720
you a job when you graduate.

4862
03:12:20,720 --> 03:12:22,550
>> I'm waiting on the city manager to give

4863
03:12:22,550 --> 03:12:22,560
» I'm waiting on the city manager to give

4864
03:12:22,560 --> 03:12:25,990
me that job. [laughter]

4865
03:12:26,000 --> 03:12:28,960
» So, apparently, Healey, your entire

4866
03:12:28,960 --> 03:12:31,713
future depends on the city manager. So,

4867
03:12:31,713 --> 03:12:33,830
[laughter]

4868
03:12:33,840 --> 03:12:37,359
agenda item 48, citizens participation.

4869
03:12:37,359 --> 03:12:39,439
Public comment during this portion of

4870
03:12:39,439 --> 03:12:41,840
the agenda must be limited to matters

4871
03:12:41,840 --> 03:12:43,600
within the jurisdiction of the city

4872
03:12:43,600 --> 03:12:46,560
council. No subject may be acted upon by

4873
03:12:46,560 --> 03:12:49,120
the city council unless that subject is

4874
03:12:49,120 --> 03:12:51,359
on the agenda and is scheduled for

4875
03:12:51,359 --> 03:12:54,399
action. If you wish to be heard, come to

4876
03:12:54,399 --> 03:12:56,240
the podium, give your name for the

4877
03:12:56,240 --> 03:12:58,560
record. The amount of discussion on any

4878
03:12:58,560 --> 03:13:00,880
single subject as well as the amount of

4879
03:13:00,880 --> 03:13:03,359
time any single speaker is allowed will

4880
03:13:03,359 --> 03:13:05,840
be limited to two minutes. Uh this is

4881
03:13:05,840 --> 03:13:08,479
your opportunity to address the council,

4882
03:13:08,479 --> 03:13:10,800
but the council is not able to respond

4883
03:13:10,800 --> 03:13:13,359
or engage in dialogue. Are there any

4884
03:13:13,359 --> 03:13:15,200
members of the public who wish to speak

4885
03:13:15,200 --> 03:13:17,600
under this portion of the agenda? Please

4886
03:13:17,600 --> 03:13:19,600
state your name for the record.

4887
03:13:19,600 --> 03:13:21,590
>> I am Shashana. I'm a resident and I'm

4888
03:13:21,590 --> 03:13:21,600
» I am Shashana. I'm a resident and I'm

4889
03:13:21,600 --> 03:13:23,520
here again to urge the council to end

4890
03:13:23,520 --> 03:13:25,520
the invocations, the praying at these

4891
03:13:25,520 --> 03:13:28,239
government meetings because

4892
03:13:28,239 --> 03:13:31,760
this is not a church. The source of your

4893
03:13:31,760 --> 03:13:33,920
invocations, however, is the Bible which

4894
03:13:33,920 --> 03:13:35,920
you support. The Bible invokes rape,

4895
03:13:35,920 --> 03:13:38,080
incest, slavery, torture, bodily

4896
03:13:38,080 --> 03:13:40,080
mutilation, mass drownings, the murder

4897
03:13:40,080 --> 03:13:42,239
of firstborn kids, the killing of men

4898
03:13:42,239 --> 03:13:44,560
for their foreskins, anti-gay rhetoric,

4899
03:13:44,560 --> 03:13:46,800
throwing babies against rocks, boiling

4900
03:13:46,800 --> 03:13:49,920
and eating children, and so on. I also

4901
03:13:49,920 --> 03:13:51,920
want to get into the irony of this book.

4902
03:13:51,920 --> 03:13:53,840
Um, let's not forget the Jewish people

4903
03:13:53,840 --> 03:13:56,399
wrote the Bible, including all the

4904
03:13:56,399 --> 03:13:58,880
commandments, which were written for no

4905
03:13:58,880 --> 03:14:01,680
one else but themselves.

4906
03:14:01,680 --> 03:14:03,600
Then the Jewish Bible was plagiarized

4907
03:14:03,600 --> 03:14:05,760
and a part two was created, also known

4908
03:14:05,760 --> 03:14:08,239
as the New Testament, that depicts a

4909
03:14:08,239 --> 03:14:11,279
Jewish baby raised by his Jewish mom and

4910
03:14:11,279 --> 03:14:14,000
his two Jewish dads. Yes, your God is

4911
03:14:14,000 --> 03:14:16,960
100% Jewish. Um, and is described as

4912
03:14:16,960 --> 03:14:19,279
having white hair, fire in his eyes,

4913
03:14:19,279 --> 03:14:20,960
floating around in the sky, wearing a

4914
03:14:20,960 --> 03:14:23,680
robe, and sitting on a throne. And by

4915
03:14:23,680 --> 03:14:25,840
the way, the Old Testament God is the

4916
03:14:25,840 --> 03:14:27,520
same as the New Testament. People argue

4917
03:14:27,520 --> 03:14:29,920
with me all the time. It's the same guy.

4918
03:14:29,920 --> 03:14:31,760
And then part two claims that the Jewish

4919
03:14:31,760 --> 03:14:34,399
Jesus character dies and is magically

4920
03:14:34,399 --> 03:14:36,080
raised from the dead like a zombie and

4921
03:14:36,080 --> 03:14:38,160
is involuntarily converted to a

4922
03:14:38,160 --> 03:14:40,000
Christian. I don't know if you know

4923
03:14:40,000 --> 03:14:41,520
this, but you cannot convert a dead

4924
03:14:41,520 --> 03:14:45,600
Jewish man unless the story is fiction.

4925
03:14:45,600 --> 03:14:47,359
But at least people knew at the time

4926
03:14:47,359 --> 03:14:48,960
this started that the enormous

4927
03:14:48,960 --> 03:14:50,880
profitability there would be in

4928
03:14:50,880 --> 03:14:53,040
religion. And so they made up an image

4929
03:14:53,040 --> 03:14:54,640
of Jesus. Nobody knew what he looked

4930
03:14:54,640 --> 03:14:56,960
like. It was all made up. um they made

4931
03:14:56,960 --> 03:14:59,040
an image of his dead body and took his

4932
03:14:59,040 --> 03:15:01,439
carcass and hung it up on the wall, made

4933
03:15:01,439 --> 03:15:03,120
art out of it, made jewelry out of his

4934
03:15:03,120 --> 03:15:05,600
carcass and various other merchandise

4935
03:15:05,600 --> 03:15:07,600
and then got tax-free status with their

4936
03:15:07,600 --> 03:15:10,640
religious um formation to chain.

4937
03:15:10,640 --> 03:15:13,439
Brilliant, wasn't it? Again, I urge the

4938
03:15:13,439 --> 03:15:15,040
council to stop bringing religion into

4939
03:15:15,040 --> 03:15:16,960
these chambers. Please do your job and

4940
03:15:16,960 --> 03:15:19,600
not keep using this building as a house

4941
03:15:19,600 --> 03:15:22,319
of worship because this is not a church.

4942
03:15:22,319 --> 03:15:23,040
Thank you.

4943
03:15:23,040 --> 03:15:25,030
>> Thank you so much. Is there anyone else

4944
03:15:25,030 --> 03:15:25,040
» Thank you so much. Is there anyone else

4945
03:15:25,040 --> 03:15:26,880
that wishes to address the council?

4946
03:15:26,880 --> 03:15:28,229
>> Madame Mayor, I just want to make sure

4947
03:15:28,229 --> 03:15:28,239
» Madame Mayor, I just want to make sure

4948
03:15:28,239 --> 03:15:30,800
we have two citizens that have been

4949
03:15:30,800 --> 03:15:32,960
sitting here quite patiently for the

4950
03:15:32,960 --> 03:15:34,560
meeting and we have some card speaker

4951
03:15:34,560 --> 03:15:36,399
cards for them. So, I have a Rihanna

4952
03:15:36,399 --> 03:15:37,840
Apoaka

4953
03:15:37,840 --> 03:15:40,309
>> and Jacko. This would be the time that

4954
03:15:40,309 --> 03:15:40,319
» and Jacko. This would be the time that

4955
03:15:40,319 --> 03:15:43,680
you want to come up and speak.

4956
03:15:43,680 --> 03:15:45,269
>> Welcome. And would you state your name

4957
03:15:45,269 --> 03:15:45,279
» Welcome. And would you state your name

4958
03:15:45,279 --> 03:15:51,590
for the record?

4959
03:15:51,600 --> 03:15:53,359
» There we go. Hi, my name is Rihanna

4960
03:15:53,359 --> 03:15:54,960
Apadaka.

4961
03:15:54,960 --> 03:15:57,840
Um, good afternoon, mayor and members of

4962
03:15:57,840 --> 03:16:00,080
the city council.

4963
03:16:00,080 --> 03:16:04,080
Um, well, Las Vegas has internationally

4964
03:16:04,080 --> 03:16:06,720
synonymous with opulence just a few

4965
03:16:06,720 --> 03:16:09,200
miles down the road in a facility that

4966
03:16:09,200 --> 03:16:11,680
is funded and overseen by this

4967
03:16:11,680 --> 03:16:13,359
municipality.

4968
03:16:13,359 --> 03:16:15,520
Residents are struggling for fundamental

4969
03:16:15,520 --> 03:16:17,520
survival.

4970
03:16:17,520 --> 03:16:20,000
To the representatives of W 5 and this

4971
03:16:20,000 --> 03:16:22,720
council, this systemic failure is

4972
03:16:22,720 --> 03:16:24,319
occurring directly within your

4973
03:16:24,319 --> 03:16:26,080
jurisdiction.

4974
03:16:26,080 --> 03:16:28,479
Looking at me tonight, I likely deviate

4975
03:16:28,479 --> 03:16:30,640
from the demographic preconceptions of

4976
03:16:30,640 --> 03:16:33,439
an unhoused individual.

4977
03:16:33,439 --> 03:16:35,200
But I arrived here following the

4978
03:16:35,200 --> 03:16:37,920
devastating loss of my father while

4979
03:16:37,920 --> 03:16:41,359
navigating severe health issues

4980
03:16:41,359 --> 03:16:44,319
and endeavoring to actively maintain my

4981
03:16:44,319 --> 03:16:46,960
employment. My presence demonstrates

4982
03:16:46,960 --> 03:16:48,880
that catastrophic life events can

4983
03:16:48,880 --> 03:16:51,200
dismantle anyone's socioeconomic

4984
03:16:51,200 --> 03:16:54,319
security. That instead of encountering a

4985
03:16:54,319 --> 03:16:57,200
rehabilitative sanctuary, disabled

4986
03:16:57,200 --> 03:16:59,840
residents, including those like myself

4987
03:16:59,840 --> 03:17:02,160
who battle things like brain tumors or

4988
03:17:02,160 --> 03:17:04,640
advanced cerosis of the liver, are

4989
03:17:04,640 --> 03:17:08,479
subjected to systemic neglect. I stand

4990
03:17:08,479 --> 03:17:10,800
before you as a solitary voice because a

4991
03:17:10,800 --> 03:17:13,359
majority of my peers suffer from

4992
03:17:13,359 --> 03:17:15,920
paralysis and are terrified of

4993
03:17:15,920 --> 03:17:19,120
administrative reprisal. While a select

4994
03:17:19,120 --> 03:17:21,439
few compassionate staff members attempt

4995
03:17:21,439 --> 03:17:24,160
to mitigate these issues, their efforts

4996
03:17:24,160 --> 03:17:25,840
are neutralized by structural

4997
03:17:25,840 --> 03:17:28,080
impediments. Meanwhile, the dominant

4998
03:17:28,080 --> 03:17:31,279
culture among other personal personnel

4999
03:17:31,279 --> 03:17:35,040
and security is overtly adversarial.

5000
03:17:35,040 --> 03:17:36,960
Crucially, this mistreatment is not

5001
03:17:36,960 --> 03:17:38,800
isolated to those with physical

5002
03:17:38,800 --> 03:17:42,479
vulnerabilities. It is pervasive.

5003
03:17:42,479 --> 03:17:44,800
It is a pervasive daily pattern of

5004
03:17:44,800 --> 03:17:47,040
degradation and psychological abuse

5005
03:17:47,040 --> 03:17:49,279
directed at every single individual

5006
03:17:49,279 --> 03:17:52,319
housed at the courtyard.

5007
03:17:52,319 --> 03:17:55,200
When an advocate for legally mandated

5008
03:17:55,200 --> 03:17:57,920
ADA accommodations are brought up, we

5009
03:17:57,920 --> 03:17:59,680
are met with swift retaliation and

5010
03:17:59,680 --> 03:18:02,080
verbal abuse.

5011
03:18:02,080 --> 03:18:03,840
city is failing both its residents and

5012
03:18:03,840 --> 03:18:05,760
its well-meaning staff. We do not

5013
03:18:05,760 --> 03:18:09,520
solicit preferential treatment or demand

5014
03:18:09,520 --> 03:18:12,560
uh structuratory compliance. I simply

5015
03:18:12,560 --> 03:18:15,439
urge you guys to mandate an immediate

5016
03:18:15,439 --> 03:18:17,359
independent investigation into the

5017
03:18:17,359 --> 03:18:19,840
compliance failures and staff misconduct

5018
03:18:19,840 --> 03:18:22,319
at the courtyard. Please don't let these

5019
03:18:22,319 --> 03:18:24,479
people slip through the cracks.

5020
03:18:24,479 --> 03:18:30,950
>> Thank you so much. there. Sabra,

5021
03:18:30,960 --> 03:18:33,120
um, would would you mind waiting a

5022
03:18:33,120 --> 03:18:34,640
minute? There's somebody that would like

5023
03:18:34,640 --> 03:18:37,120
to uh from the city that would like to

5024
03:18:37,120 --> 03:18:40,080
speak with you.

5025
03:18:40,080 --> 03:18:42,389
>> Thank you so much. Welcome. And would

5026
03:18:42,389 --> 03:18:42,399
» Thank you so much. Welcome. And would

5027
03:18:42,399 --> 03:18:44,239
you state your name for the record?

5028
03:18:44,239 --> 03:18:46,229
>> Good morning, Mrs. Mayor. My name's Jack

5029
03:18:46,229 --> 03:18:46,239
» Good morning, Mrs. Mayor. My name's Jack

5030
03:18:46,239 --> 03:18:47,920
Trujillo.

5031
03:18:47,920 --> 03:18:50,399
I'm calling in regards to my neighbors

5032
03:18:50,399 --> 03:18:53,760
uh hoarding dogs and uh instead of

5033
03:18:53,760 --> 03:18:55,840
picking up the dog poop and putting it

5034
03:18:55,840 --> 03:18:58,160
in a trash bag and putting in the trash

5035
03:18:58,160 --> 03:19:01,600
can, they're digging holes under my wall

5036
03:19:01,600 --> 03:19:04,239
and placing it there and putting water

5037
03:19:04,239 --> 03:19:07,600
in there, saturating it. The stench is

5038
03:19:07,600 --> 03:19:09,920
terrible. And now we have screworm

5039
03:19:09,920 --> 03:19:12,399
flies. And unfortunately, the city of

5040
03:19:12,399 --> 03:19:15,600
Las Vegas has no protocol for screworm

5041
03:19:15,600 --> 03:19:17,359
flies.

5042
03:19:17,359 --> 03:19:18,880
Arizona,

5043
03:19:18,880 --> 03:19:23,359
Texas. This is a foreign disease coming

5044
03:19:23,359 --> 03:19:27,040
from Brazil. Well, due to these people

5045
03:19:27,040 --> 03:19:29,279
doing what they're doing, our area is

5046
03:19:29,279 --> 03:19:31,200
now infested.

5047
03:19:31,200 --> 03:19:33,760
And I've called everybody in the city of

5048
03:19:33,760 --> 03:19:37,680
Las Vegas and the answer is not my job.

5049
03:19:37,680 --> 03:19:40,000
Not my job.

5050
03:19:40,000 --> 03:19:43,680
This is a critical situation.

5051
03:19:43,680 --> 03:19:47,439
People should not pile dog poop on the

5052
03:19:47,439 --> 03:19:50,080
sides of the house. It goes in the trash

5053
03:19:50,080 --> 03:19:53,520
and it goes to the dump

5054
03:19:53,520 --> 03:19:57,040
when it collects flies, fleas, ticks.

5055
03:19:57,040 --> 03:19:59,760
This is a disgrace

5056
03:19:59,760 --> 03:20:01,840
and it's terrible that nobody in the

5057
03:20:01,840 --> 03:20:04,800
city will take care of it.

5058
03:20:04,800 --> 03:20:08,000
Now, my neighbors are Joey and Joey Joey

5059
03:20:08,000 --> 03:20:10,080
Mullins and Karen Mullins. They're

5060
03:20:10,080 --> 03:20:13,120
fostering dogs.

5061
03:20:13,120 --> 03:20:16,080
They don't have the area to have dogs.

5062
03:20:16,080 --> 03:20:19,200
They have 200 square feet. These dogs

5063
03:20:19,200 --> 03:20:21,439
have been locked up in the house for

5064
03:20:21,439 --> 03:20:24,080
over a year. She only brings them out

5065
03:20:24,080 --> 03:20:26,479
late at night.

5066
03:20:26,479 --> 03:20:28,880
And then with the poop, they push it in

5067
03:20:28,880 --> 03:20:31,760
these holes and put it in the saturated

5068
03:20:31,760 --> 03:20:34,080
with water. Now we're infested with all

5069
03:20:34,080 --> 03:20:36,080
these flies. What's the city going to do

5070
03:20:36,080 --> 03:20:39,120
about the flies and all this stench and

5071
03:20:39,120 --> 03:20:42,000
all this poop? there. If you are running

5072
03:20:42,000 --> 03:20:44,960
a business, whether it's fostering dogs,

5073
03:20:44,960 --> 03:20:47,439
regardless what the business is, there's

5074
03:20:47,439 --> 03:20:51,520
appropriate ways to dispose of dog feces

5075
03:20:51,520 --> 03:20:53,920
and other trash.

5076
03:20:53,920 --> 03:20:57,040
This is not the way. And as a result, I

5077
03:20:57,040 --> 03:20:59,520
have a petition from many neighbors that

5078
03:20:59,520 --> 03:21:02,800
want this business to be ceased and

5079
03:21:02,800 --> 03:21:04,080

whether you know it or not, is drying

up. is at a dangerous point right now.

5137
03:23:06,800 --> 03:23:08,960
The RTC

5138
03:23:08,960 --> 03:23:13,840
is building a lot of um

5139
03:23:13,840 --> 03:23:16,319
at a lot of intersections

5140
03:23:16,319 --> 03:23:20,640
destroying the flow of traffic.

5141
03:23:20,640 --> 03:23:24,239
The Maryland Parkway had a sign saying

5142
03:23:24,239 --> 03:23:26,720
if you want to know about it, call this

5143
03:23:26,720 --> 03:23:30,720
number. I called the number months ago

5144
03:23:30,720 --> 03:23:34,000
and they said, "Well, the it will end in

5145
03:23:34,000 --> 03:23:35,680
June

5146
03:23:35,680 --> 03:23:38,720

off, but it's still being constructed.

is really causing a lot of problems

5155
03:24:09,120 --> 03:24:13,760
and the bus drivers should be

5156
03:24:13,760 --> 03:24:17,040
taught better as to how to use those

5157
03:24:17,040 --> 03:24:19,840
buses because

5158
03:24:19,840 --> 03:24:22,080

5160
03:24:28,479 --> 03:24:32,399

whether or not such proposed items shall

5174
03:25:03,520 --> 03:25:05,680

03:25:30,960 --> 03:25:33,520
not be acted upon by the city council

5187
03:25:33,520 --> 03:25:36,560
unless that subject is on the agenda and

5188
03:25:36,560 --> 03:25:39,680
scheduled for action. Um, let us start

5189
03:25:39,680 --> 03:25:43,520

» Wow, I'm still getting used to the title

5192
03:25:45,359 --> 03:25:48,399
mayor. I apologize in RDA. I was like,

5193
03:25:48,399 --> 03:25:50,080
you say MPT and it still hasn't

5194
03:25:50,080 --> 03:25:51,840
registered for me, but thank you so

5195
03:25:51,840 --> 03:25:54,640
much. Um, I also want to give kudos to

5196
03:25:54,640 --> 03:25:56,720

5197
03:25:56,720 --> 03:25:58,399
reading our bills today. So, thank you

5198
03:25:58,399 --> 03:26:01,279
so much for being with us. I know that

5199
03:26:01,279 --> 03:26:03,200
getting through our business can be

5200
03:26:03,200 --> 03:26:05,120
exciting at times, but not so exciting

5201
03:26:05,120 --> 03:26:07,520
sometimes. Um, I just want to go through

5202
03:26:07,520 --> 03:26:09,279
a few things because I I do know that

5203
03:26:09,279 --> 03:26:10,800
I'm standing between you all in the

5204
03:26:10,800 --> 03:26:12,720
World Cup match between England and

5205
03:26:12,720 --> 03:26:16,560
Argentina. So, um, let me go ahead and

5206
03:26:16,560 --> 03:26:18,880
get started. On July 1st, I had the

5207
03:26:18,880 --> 03:26:20,720
honor of welcoming a wonderful group of

5208
03:26:20,720 --> 03:26:23,840
Girl Scouts, um, to our city hall, and

5209
03:26:23,840 --> 03:26:25,840
it happened during our last city council

5210
03:26:25,840 --> 03:26:26,960
meeting. And I just want to thank

5211
03:26:26,960 --> 03:26:29,120
everyone in city hall for making them

5212
03:26:29,120 --> 03:26:31,840
feel so welcome. They took tours within

5213
03:26:31,840 --> 03:26:34,560
our ma main building, but they also went

5214
03:26:34,560 --> 03:26:36,640
to our municipal court and they learned

5215
03:26:36,640 --> 03:26:39,120
so much about democracy and action and

5216
03:26:39,120 --> 03:26:41,279
they earned their democracy badge that

5217
03:26:41,279 --> 03:26:44,160
day. So special kudos goes out to parks,

5218
03:26:44,160 --> 03:26:45,840

03:26:56,080 --> 03:26:57,920
Um, and the girls also met with

5224
03:26:57,920 --> 03:26:59,520
representatives from the office of the

5225
03:26:59,520 --> 03:27:01,520

5226
03:27:01,520 --> 03:27:04,160

5228

this an awesome day for them. On July

5229
03:27:09,680 --> 03:27:12,479
6th, I popped into Ward 5 to visit the

5230
03:27:12,479 --> 03:27:14,640
Just One project. Um, they used to be

5231
03:27:14,640 --> 03:27:16,720
Ward Three though uh when they had a

5232
03:27:16,720 --> 03:27:19,359
tiny little closet of a space, but I'm

5233
03:27:19,359 --> 03:27:21,359
so elated to see that they've grown so

5234
03:27:21,359 --> 03:27:23,120
much and they continue to do an amazing

5235
03:27:23,120 --> 03:27:26,560
job for everyone in our city. and um we

5236
03:27:26,560 --> 03:27:28,960
just uh were there to partake with

5237
03:27:28,960 --> 03:27:31,200
Brooke and uh share a little bit about

5238
03:27:31,200 --> 03:27:33,920
my journey and who I am and why I'm in

5239
03:27:33,920 --> 03:27:35,600
this work. So, I just want to thank them

5240
03:27:35,600 --> 03:27:38,160
for being invited to their podcast. On

5241
03:27:38,160 --> 03:27:41,520
July 9th, I was over at the Concept Auto

5242
03:27:41,520 --> 03:27:44,479
Body Repair grand opening and it's not

5243
03:27:44,479 --> 03:27:46,399
your everyday

5244
03:27:46,399 --> 03:27:50,399
um I guess body shop. I was uh amongst

5245
03:27:50,399 --> 03:27:52,880
the mist of a Bugatti, which I had never

5246
03:27:52,880 --> 03:27:55,600
seen up close and personal. And uh I

5247
03:27:55,600 --> 03:27:57,600
also heard a tidbit that just in cars

5248
03:27:57,600 --> 03:28:00,080
that were there showing off, we there

5249
03:28:00,080 --> 03:28:02,479
was about an inventory of $7 million. I

5250
03:28:02,479 --> 03:28:05,200
was like, "Oh my gosh." Um but this is a

5251
03:28:05,200 --> 03:28:07,920
new repair shop in Ward 3 owned by the

5252
03:28:07,920 --> 03:28:12,080
proud owners of Lou and um Wendell Ranel

5253
03:28:12,080 --> 03:28:15,200
who had impeccable attention to detail

5254
03:28:15,200 --> 03:28:17,600
for bringing this to our community. um

5255
03:28:17,600 --> 03:28:20,000
he was approached by MercedesBenz to

5256
03:28:20,000 --> 03:28:22,479
open a shop and I'm glad he chose our

5257
03:28:22,479 --> 03:28:25,680
city to do it in. On July 9th, we also

5258
03:28:25,680 --> 03:28:27,680
had the Museum of Ice Cream ribbon

5259
03:28:27,680 --> 03:28:31,120
cutting and the mayor and I had a blast

5260
03:28:31,120 --> 03:28:33,680
um from cutting the ribbon to going

5261
03:28:33,680 --> 03:28:36,239
through the immersive exhibits at the

5262
03:28:36,239 --> 03:28:39,200
new Museum of Ice Cream at Area 15 in

5263
03:28:39,200 --> 03:28:41,359
the second phase of it. This is a

5264
03:28:41,359 --> 03:28:43,600
colorful new attraction and it's also

5265
03:28:43,600 --> 03:28:45,680
another exciting addition for residents

5266
03:28:45,680 --> 03:28:48,800
and families to enjoy. U Mayor Berkeley

5267
03:28:48,800 --> 03:28:51,600
and I um got as you can see our own

5268
03:28:51,600 --> 03:28:54,880
little removable tattoos and I got to go

5269
03:28:54,880 --> 03:28:57,359
down the slide which was the best part

5270
03:28:57,359 --> 03:29:00,160
of the day. Everyone was laughing at me

5271
03:29:00,160 --> 03:29:01,120
but it's okay

5272
03:29:01,120 --> 03:29:03,750
>> with you. With [laughter]

5273
03:29:03,750 --> 03:29:03,760
» with you. With [laughter]

5274
03:29:03,760 --> 03:29:06,229
>> um I just want to bring up this very

5275
03:29:06,229 --> 03:29:06,239
» um I just want to bring up this very

5276
03:29:06,239 --> 03:29:08,880
important road closure casino center at

5277
03:29:08,880 --> 03:29:10,880
Charleston Boulevard. If you guys have

5278
03:29:10,880 --> 03:29:14,640
been in that area of town, it's reduced

5279
03:29:14,640 --> 03:29:16,720
down to one lane and it takes quite a

5280
03:29:16,720 --> 03:29:18,319
bit. So, you either have to add

5281
03:29:18,319 --> 03:29:20,399
additional minutes to your commute or

5282
03:29:20,399 --> 03:29:23,120
just use alternate routes to get to and

5283
03:29:23,120 --> 03:29:25,520
from um through to the arts district.

5284
03:29:25,520 --> 03:29:27,680
So, just know Casino Center will be

5285
03:29:27,680 --> 03:29:29,520
closed on the south side of Charleston

5286
03:29:29,520 --> 03:29:33,680
Boulevard through July 31st. And um just

5287
03:29:33,680 --> 03:29:35,840
call our office if you need anything

5288
03:29:35,840 --> 03:29:38,000
else from us on that point. And that's

5289
03:29:38,000 --> 03:29:40,160
it for me, mayor. As usual, people can

5290
03:29:40,160 --> 03:29:42,560
reach out via phone, email, and sign up

5291
03:29:42,560 --> 03:29:44,399
for our monthly newsletters. Thank you

5292
03:29:44,399 --> 03:29:45,279
so much.

5293
03:29:45,279 --> 03:29:47,590
>> Thank you, Miss Kelly.

5294
03:29:47,590 --> 03:29:47,600
» Thank you, Miss Kelly.

5295
03:29:47,600 --> 03:29:50,950
>> Thank you, Mayor. I was thrilled on July

5296
03:29:50,950 --> 03:29:50,960
» Thank you, Mayor. I was thrilled on July

5297
03:29:50,960 --> 03:29:55,040
1 to be in my first parade, and I joined

5298
03:29:55,040 --> 03:29:57,680
the mayor and Councilwoman Francis

5299
03:29:57,680 --> 03:30:00,640
Finski, as well as Councilwoman

5300
03:30:00,640 --> 03:30:03,680
Nancy Brune, um, and many of our

5301
03:30:03,680 --> 03:30:05,040
colleagues. I'll tell you, it was really

5302
03:30:05,040 --> 03:30:09,520
special to ride and uh see not only the

5303
03:30:09,520 --> 03:30:11,040
I mean the the best part of the

5304
03:30:11,040 --> 03:30:13,680
children's faces, but I also loved how

5305
03:30:13,680 --> 03:30:16,880
Councilwoman um Alan Pollinski, she must

5306
03:30:16,880 --> 03:30:18,880
have said hi to at least a dozen people.

5307
03:30:18,880 --> 03:30:21,200
That woman knows everybody. So, I was

5308
03:30:21,200 --> 03:30:22,880
particularly impressed with that. And

5309
03:30:22,880 --> 03:30:25,359
what a lovely time uh to be with all of

5310
03:30:25,359 --> 03:30:28,640
you. The Summerland Council does a

5311
03:30:28,640 --> 03:30:32,319
terrific job on that parade. I then was

5312
03:30:32,319 --> 03:30:33,920
earlier in the month had the opportunity

5313
03:30:33,920 --> 03:30:36,399
to tour Shine a Light Foundation. I did

5314
03:30:36,399 --> 03:30:38,800
not go into the tunnels, but I did learn

5315
03:30:38,800 --> 03:30:42,000
a lot about their program and was very

5316
03:30:42,000 --> 03:30:44,399
impressed uh to meet with Robert

5317
03:30:44,399 --> 03:30:46,560
Banghart and learn about the incredible

5318
03:30:46,560 --> 03:30:48,479
work that they're doing to serve

5319
03:30:48,479 --> 03:30:50,720
individuals experiencing homelessness

5320
03:30:50,720 --> 03:30:53,359
and other ver vulnerable members of our

5321
03:30:53,359 --> 03:30:55,040
community.

5322
03:30:55,040 --> 03:30:57,520
um he gave a statistic and I didn't ask

5323
03:30:57,520 --> 03:31:03,520
the origin but that said 60% of our of I

5324
03:31:03,520 --> 03:31:06,479
was uh one paycheck away from a from a

5325
03:31:06,479 --> 03:31:10,239
crisis and that uh you know I grew up in

5326
03:31:10,239 --> 03:31:11,840
um

5327
03:31:11,840 --> 03:31:15,439
you know with with very modest and um

5328
03:31:15,439 --> 03:31:17,920
and that was my mom's situation

5329
03:31:17,920 --> 03:31:19,760
certainly and I was sharing with the

5330
03:31:19,760 --> 03:31:21,840
council woman uh with councilwoman

5331
03:31:21,840 --> 03:31:24,239
Summers Armstrong that had my

5332
03:31:24,239 --> 03:31:26,080
grandmother not had a house where we

5333
03:31:26,080 --> 03:31:29,279
were we lived uh multiple times through

5334
03:31:29,279 --> 03:31:32,080
times in our life that uh I would likely

5335
03:31:32,080 --> 03:31:34,560
have been homeless at some point. So it

5336
03:31:34,560 --> 03:31:37,680
is and it never occurred to me until

5337
03:31:37,680 --> 03:31:40,479
um you know until actually recently that

5338
03:31:40,479 --> 03:31:43,760
that was that was a uh what a gift that

5339
03:31:43,760 --> 03:31:45,200
was. I just thought that was what you

5340
03:31:45,200 --> 03:31:46,479
did with your grandma as you moved in

5341
03:31:46,479 --> 03:31:48,560
and out of where she lived uh which is

5342
03:31:48,560 --> 03:31:50,560
probably a lot of people. Uh, one of the

5343
03:31:50,560 --> 03:31:52,239
things that Shine a Light that does is

5344
03:31:52,239 --> 03:31:54,880
does have a community closet. Um, and

5345
03:31:54,880 --> 03:31:56,720
they're always, uh, stocking it with

5346
03:31:56,720 --> 03:32:00,080
with new stuff. And so, um, we have so

5347
03:32:00,080 --> 03:32:01,680
many of our nonprofits that have

5348
03:32:01,680 --> 03:32:03,760
community closets. Here's another place

5349
03:32:03,760 --> 03:32:05,760
where it goes directly to people and we

5350
03:32:05,760 --> 03:32:07,920
like to know that. And just a couple

5351
03:32:07,920 --> 03:32:09,680
things that are upcoming. Um, we've got

5352
03:32:09,680 --> 03:32:12,640
our breakfast buzz on Saturday the 22nd.

5353
03:32:12,640 --> 03:32:14,239
I'm really excited about this one

5354
03:32:14,239 --> 03:32:17,680
because we had an event focusing on

5355
03:32:17,680 --> 03:32:20,800
seniors and fraud and we had so many

5356
03:32:20,800 --> 03:32:23,040
constituents come up afterwards and say

5357
03:32:23,040 --> 03:32:25,439
how important that topic was and their

5358
03:32:25,439 --> 03:32:28,479
desire to learn more. And so we're going

5359
03:32:28,479 --> 03:32:31,359
to be having some different experts uh

5360
03:32:31,359 --> 03:32:33,120
but also talking about this important

5361
03:32:33,120 --> 03:32:35,840
subject. And one of the things that um

5362
03:32:35,840 --> 03:32:37,680
the special agent in charge, Chris

5363
03:32:37,680 --> 03:32:41,279
Delado, said to our attendees on that

5364
03:32:41,279 --> 03:32:44,960
day that we had the event was that

5365
03:32:44,960 --> 03:32:46,640
uh they don't even recommend that you

5366
03:32:46,640 --> 03:32:49,439
unsubscribe to emails that that there's

5367
03:32:49,439 --> 03:32:51,840
some fraud that's taking place. So you

5368
03:32:51,840 --> 03:32:53,520
think you're trying to unsubscribe to

5369
03:32:53,520 --> 03:32:55,840
the Macy's emails or whatever spam

5370
03:32:55,840 --> 03:32:58,720
you're getting and uh that could

5371
03:32:58,720 --> 03:33:01,600
actually be embedded fraud. So, it uh

5372
03:33:01,600 --> 03:33:04,000
that was new to me and I'm looking

5373
03:33:04,000 --> 03:33:06,560
forward to the city of the world uh

5374
03:33:06,560 --> 03:33:08,880
being at Bruce Trent Park as well with

5375
03:33:08,880 --> 03:33:12,080
some of our other parks uh for the fall.

5376
03:33:12,080 --> 03:33:15,120
And uh we have movie night coming up uh

5377
03:33:15,120 --> 03:33:17,359

5502
03:38:21,120 --> 03:38:23,279
Thank you, Madame Mayor. On the morning

5503
03:38:23,279 --> 03:38:25,520
of Saturday, July 4th, we had the

5504
03:38:25,520 --> 03:38:28,080
opportunity to ride Big Red in the

5505
03:38:28,080 --> 03:38:30,399
Summerland Patriotic Parade. Uh there

5506
03:38:30,399 --> 03:38:32,160
were many families in attendance and was

5507
03:38:32,160 --> 03:38:33,920
a great way to start the celebration of

5508
03:38:33,920 --> 03:38:37,120
America's 250th anniversary.

5509
03:38:37,120 --> 03:38:39,120
After that, in the evening, we continue

5510
03:38:39,120 --> 03:38:41,600
to celebrate at Blastoff in the Basin

5511
03:38:41,600 --> 03:38:44,399
with almost 11,000 in attendance in the

5512
03:38:44,399 --> 03:38:48,000
Basin and around 7,000 in total at the

5513
03:38:48,000 --> 03:38:50,720
three satellite parks. It was surely a

5514
03:38:50,720 --> 03:38:53,840
big party. We had food trucks, special

5515
03:38:53,840 --> 03:38:57,439

5516
03:38:57,439 --> 03:38:59,200

5517
03:38:59,200 --> 03:39:01,920
from musicology academy, and a special

5518
03:39:01,920 --> 03:39:04,319
shout out to Dealco Crane Company for

5519
03:39:04,319 --> 03:39:06,160
helping us proudly display that

5520
03:39:06,160 --> 03:39:09,359
ginormous American flag because our fire

5521
03:39:09,359 --> 03:39:11,439
department was too busy on the 4th of

5522
03:39:11,439 --> 03:39:14,479
July responding to calls. So, we were

5523
03:39:14,479 --> 03:39:16,399
great to have them substitute we could

5524
03:39:16,399 --> 03:39:18,960

5525
03:39:18,960 --> 03:39:21,722

5526
03:39:21,722 --> 03:39:22,880
[snorts] the end of the night, we had a

5528
03:39:25,120 --> 03:39:27,520
that made the night truly something to

03:39:27,520 --> 03:39:29,279
remember.

5530
03:39:29,279 --> 03:39:31,439

5532
03:39:34,239 --> 03:39:37,441
hosted an afterparty park cleanup.

5533
03:39:37,441 --> 03:39:38,720
[laughter]

5534
03:39:38,720 --> 03:39:41,279
Staff members and volunteers went around

5535
03:39:41,279 --> 03:39:43,600
the park picking up trash and restoring

5536
03:39:43,600 --> 03:39:46,319
it to its normal glorious state.

5537
03:39:46,319 --> 03:39:48,319
Volunteers were offered breakfast and a

5538
03:39:48,319 --> 03:39:50,239

turn this over to my summer intern,

5589

Roger Randolph, and he's going to do the

03:41:52,160 --> 03:41:54,080
honors.

5591
03:41:54,080 --> 03:41:56,950
>> Hello. On Tuesday, June 30th,

5592
03:41:56,950 --> 03:41:56,960
» Hello. On Tuesday, June 30th,

5593
03:41:56,960 --> 03:41:58,479
Councilwoman had the pleasure of touring

5594
03:41:58,479 --> 03:42:00,880
a new development in Ward 5. Olive

5595
03:42:00,880 --> 03:42:02,960
Crest, a southern Nevada organization

5596
03:42:02,960 --> 03:42:04,479
working hard to end child abuse and

5597
03:42:04,479 --> 03:42:06,399
neglect, will be bringing a new campus

5598
03:42:06,399 --> 03:42:08,720
for children and families. They offer

5599
03:42:08,720 --> 03:42:10,319
service focused on families facing

5600
03:42:10,319 --> 03:42:11,600
challenges including economic

5601
03:42:11,600 --> 03:42:14,399
instability, housing insecurity, mental

5602
03:42:14,399 --> 03:42:16,720
health strain, and more. Foster youth

5603
03:42:16,720 --> 03:42:18,800
are often overlooked in our society.

5604
03:42:18,800 --> 03:42:20,479
Those youth who age out of foster care

5605
03:42:20,479 --> 03:42:22,479
are sometimes forgotten completely.

5606
03:42:22,479 --> 03:42:24,479
Because of this sad reality, they are

5607
03:42:24,479 --> 03:42:26,239
exposed to some of the worst that the

5608
03:42:26,239 --> 03:42:28,239
world has has to offer and aren't able

5609
03:42:28,239 --> 03:42:29,600
to learn some of the skills that we take

5610
03:42:29,600 --> 03:42:31,920
for granted every day. Our friends at

5611
03:42:31,920 --> 03:42:33,840
Olive Crest understood this reality and

5612
03:42:33,840 --> 03:42:35,279
have made it their mission to fight and

5613
03:42:35,279 --> 03:42:37,120
advocate for these youth.

5614
03:42:37,120 --> 03:42:38,950

03:42:55,600 --> 03:42:57,120
was filled with music, dancing,

5625
03:42:57,120 --> 03:42:59,359
connection, and celebration. Moments

5626
03:42:59,359 --> 03:43:01,439
like these are what makes W five a vibe

5627
03:43:01,439 --> 03:43:03,520
and a place to thrive. It was more than

5628
03:43:03,520 --> 03:43:05,439
a holiday. It was an opportunity to

5629
03:43:05,439 --> 03:43:07,520
create lasting memories with neighbors,

5630
03:43:07,520 --> 03:43:09,359
friends, and family. Thank you to

03:43:12,319 --> 03:43:13,840
community spirit. We look forward to
