Redevelopment
Community InvolvementThe Redevelopment Agency wants your input! Community involvement is essential to determine what types of programs and projects are offered in redevelopment areas. Opportunities to participate include: leading a committee or beginning a leadership group on a topic that’s important to you, participating in a survey, or attending an event or public meeting. We are always looking for community feedback on proposed projects and ideas to bring residents and businesses of redevelopment areas together to rebuild their neighborhoods. To find out how you can get involved, please contact 702-267-1515.

- Pittman and Valley View Redevelopment Outreach Events and Survey Research: In an effort to determine neighborhood priorities and preferences, the Redevelopment Agency held a Redevelopment Outreach Event and Survey in March 2009 in the Pittman neighborhood and in June 2009 in the Valley View Neighborhood, both located in the Eastside Redevelopment Area, to assess opportunities for improvements to the area. Based on your input, the Wells Park Improvements project was born. (See above for more information). In addition to the Wells Park project, young people participated in a design competition for each neighborhood: What My Neighborhood Means To Me, an activity that shed light on existing community assets and opportunities the City can continue to build upon and support through redevelopment efforts.
