Participatory democracy is the cornerstone of our great nation, and -- when it comes to @redrockcanyonlv -- we intend to participate fully. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday. 🇺🇸🎆♥️
Today (July 3, 2024), the County— backed into a legal corner — approved a Development Agreement that allows 3,500 homes (+ commercial spaces) to be built adjacent to Red Rock Canyon NCA.

$80 million dollars of taxpayers’ money is going to a developer in Las Vegas along with an approval to build 3500 houses next to Red Rock National Conservation Area.
The settlement:
- Gives $80M to the developer,
- Allows the County’s approval of a major development project consisting of 3,500 homes (plus commercial spaces) on land adjacent to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area,
- Waives the condition that the developer obtain road approval from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) prior to its approval of the Specific Plan,
- States that the county will assist in seeking a right-of-way grant from the BLM for the primary access road off of SR-160 (Blue Diamond Hwy), and
- Makes the county liable for up to an additional $6M to the developer if BLM does not grant approval within five (5) years.

Can you say “kick backs”?
If everything would've been upfront and honest from the start the County wouldn't have to pay the 80 million dollars but your substandard policies cost every tax payer in the County that money . Jones and his partner in crime should be banned from political office for life .Sadly you lose because for playing dirty.

Can you post a link that explains how this was approved? Didn't Rhodes lose this fight years ago and declared bankruptcy? Who is paying for all the necessary infrastducture? And why/how did they give up $80 million to settle wuth Rhodes? Why did the county stand to lose $2 billion??? Did the county commit fraud or violate some laws???
You’re amazing Heather!! Thank you for your hard work. All those hEdgefunds are behind it. Money talks to our politicians. One County commissioner voted to let a hedge fund build homes 4 rent in Mountains Edge, but masked it as homes for affordable family homes for 1st time home buys. Well it’s not for home buyers at all . Renters only!! #votewhereulive #WhoIsBehindTheMask

Is Clark County’s $80M settlement with Red Rock developer the new model for land use disputes? - The Nevada Independent

Additionally, once the final map is approved, the County will get 192 acres of the most environmentally sensitive land located in the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.
I don't understand. Why was all the concession necessary??? Does Jim Rhodes have all these rights that if they went to court, the County would have lost? Was County fighting an uphill battle all along?

From our Founder:
We are heartbroken that a developer has chosen to go against public opinion, take $80 million of taxpayers’ money, and keep pushing forward with plans for 3500 homes and commercial businesses on Blue Diamond Hill in Red Rock Canyon. While we are heartbroken for now, we are not discouraged.
This is not the end. It does not guarantee development. As with any proposal this large, controversial, and expensive, there will be many more bridges to cross before anything could ever be built.
Participative democracy is the cornerstone of our way of life, and rest assured we intend to participate fully. Our resolution to be heard, make statements, have input on details, and hold the county, the commissioners, and the developer to account, remains strong.
Our whole team, with heartfelt gratitude, thanks you for responding to our announcements and calls, time and time again, to support Red Rock.
Every letter written, every call made, every testimony given from the heart builds momentum and proves public support that will help the cause as we move forward.
Thank you for staying strong for Red Rock.
Gratefully Yours,
Heather Fisher, President
Save Red Rock

Bless you Heather, and thank you for your faithful civic engagement...I still picture you with your baby on your hip at public hearings in Blue Diamond...bet she's grown up now!
I know you tried. But these commissioners ALL need to be voted out. Why are our tax dollars going towards bribing a developer for what they did? This is sick. Corrupt swine!
Thank you for your efforts. I can’t believe we are still fighting to keep our beautiful wild spaces free from development.
