City of Las Vegas Hall Drive

The ASCE Southern Nevada Branch and YMF hosted the first City Hall Drive in Las Vegas on Thursday, May 24th. The group visited with four city council members: Seroka, Coffin, Fiore and Anthony to discuss local infrastructure and future needs. In 2016, the State of Nevada raised its gas tax for the first time in over 25 years and many highway and road projects have been started due to this additional funding. Talking about the visible success of the Gas Tax gave us a great entrance topic. The Southern Nevada Branch also discussed our 2015 State Report Card and invited the council members to attend the upcoming 2018 Report Card release party scheduled in September. This was the first event in the Branch's local government outreach effort and we look forward to becoming more active in our local community.
