This just in from the Protectors of Tule Springs:
On November 17th and 18th, an unprecedented event will take place. The Clark County Commission, the City of Las Vegas, and the City of North Las Vegas will all be placing a RESOLUTION on their agendas which will read in part: This is a resolution supporting the designation of an area known as the Upper Las Vegas Wash as an Urban National Park Unit Managed by the National Park Service. It will urge our Congressional Delegation and the US Department of the Interior to make a land designation appropriate for the protection of the resources, in a timely manner to avoid further degradation of the area, with appropriate funding to fully develop the scientific, educational and recreational potential.
WE NEED AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE TO ATTEND ONE OR ALL OF THE MEETINGS TO SHOW OUR SUPPORT!!!!
To get these 3 entities to agree on anything is an incredible victory for what we all have worked so hard on the last 3 years!
November 17th Clark County Commission 10am 500 S. Grand Central Parkway 455-0000 (Take I-15 south, Get off on Charleston, turn left. Go under I-15 and then turn left on Grand Central Parkway. About 1/2 mile on right you will see the County Commission offices across the street from the Outlet Mall)
November 18th Las Vegas City Council 9am- Corner of Stewart and Las Vegas Blvd. near Fremont street. Bring change for parking meters. I-95 get off on Las Vegas Blvd. Turn right. Past Stewart and into parking structure on your right.
November 18th North Las Vegas City Council 6pm-2200 Civic Center Drive 633-1007 (easiest way is to take I-15 to Cheyenne. Turn Left, across I-15 and then turn right at first signal which is Civic Center Drive. Go about 2 miles. Building on left)
HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE!!!
