In recent years, we’ve seen an enormous increase in outdoor recreation interest among our residents. For example, our summer visitation increased more than 200 percent in the last three years. The challenge in Las Vegas is managing that growth effectively to help people engage in outdoor experiences safely while taking measures to protect our environment. Las Vegas has a lot of unique landscapes, and we must all be stewards of the environment.

I believe our biggest challenge over the next five years is keeping up with the growth of our city. We are growing at an incredible rate and need to ensure we have the infrastructure to support that growth. From teachers for our children’s schools, to housing, to roadways. It is important that we are set up for success and maintain quality control with our growth.
