Southwest Ridge Recreational Areas Open House Wednesday, July 25
Commission Chair Susan Brager and the County Comprehensive Planning Department will host an open house on Wednesday, July 25, to share information and solicit public input on plans for future parks and recreational amenities for the Southwest Ridge area.
The open house will be from 4 to 7 p.m., July 25, in the meeting room at the Desert Breeze Community Center, 8275 Spring Mountain Road. Residents are encouraged to drop in any time during the open house.
The Southwest Ridge area is on the western edge of the Las Vegas Valley. Future development here is expected to include three County recreation areas with a combined 1,200 acres in the foothills west of Summerlin South and Rhodes Ranch, between Tropicana Avenue and Blue Diamond Road. The open house is part of an outreach effort to encourage the public to participate in the planning of this area. For more information, contact Scott Hagen at (702) 455-2273, or by email at shagen@clarkcountynv.gov.
“The Southwest Ridge is a beautiful area with a lot of room for parks and other recreational amenities,” Commission Chair Brager said. “This open house is a great opportunity for residents to help shape their community.”
This is the second open house on the Southwest Ridge recreational plan.
