Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Clark County public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Title 16 and Title 30 Fee Schedule Updates and Right-of-Way Regulations
A new ordinance would add a $50 lane occupancy fee after three days, raise inspection and bond fees, add a $100 special event application fee (now filed with Public Works instead of Metro), and allow 3% annual CPI increases — effective January 1, 2027 if adopted October 6.
Senior Mobile Home Rent Increases
Sunrise Manor resident Al Rojas urged the county to consider limits on steep rent hikes in senior mobile home parks, noting many homeless people are seniors. Commissioners pointed to $360 million in affordable housing funding and pending legislative requests on landlord charges.
County Labor Agreements and Wage Adjustments
The county approved two labor agreements for public defenders, providing salary and benefit adjustments and extending similar terms to non-union staff.
Capital Improvement Program Review
Commissioners delayed a vote on the $5.4 billion capital improvement plan to better understand how projects are scored and prioritized.
Proposed 9-1-1 Telephone Line Surcharge
Clark County is adding a $1 monthly fee on phone lines and cell phones, plus $10 on commercial trunk lines, to fund vital upgrades to emergency 9-1-1 dispatch systems and transition away from aging analog technology.
