Clark County Commission Chairman Tick Segerblom will host a community town hall to address encampments of unhoused individuals in the Flamingo Road and Maryland Parkway area. Residents, business owners and community stakeholders are invited to participate on Monday, May 19, at 6 p.m. at the Clark County Library located at 1401 E. Flamingo Road.
“The challenges faced by our unhoused population affect our entire community—from residents and business owners to those experiencing housing insecurity themselves,” said Commissioner Segerblom. “This town hall is an opportunity to foster a productive dialogue and learn about ongoing efforts and resources available. I encourage those impacted by or concerned about the unhoused in the area to attend and share their thoughts.”
Commissioner Segerblom will address upcoming construction at the wash in the Flamingo Road and Maryland Parkway vicinity. Prior to the commencement of construction, a clean-up of the area will be conducted to make way for construction activities.
Representatives from LVMPD, UNLV Police Department, Regional Flood Control District and HELP of Southern Nevada will also be present at the town hall to share insights about their efforts in addressing homelessness-related challenges.
The event is open to the public. For additional information, contact the Clark County District E Office at DistrictE@ClarkCountyNV.gov.
