Residents of the Mount Vista neighborhood are being invited by the Clark County Public Works Parks division to weigh in on the future of their community space. An open house is scheduled for November 7th, presenting a chance for locals to review three conceptual designs for a forthcoming neighborhood park. Positioned along Northeast 27th Avenue and Northeast 162nd Street, the park's development is in its planning phase and seeks public opinion.
The open house takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. at iTech Preparatory School and will include a project presentation and subsequent question-and-answer session, as reported by Clark County Public Works. With the session broadcasted online for remote participants, feedback is encouraged both in-person and virtually, ensuring broad community engagement.
Based on input from a previous open house and online survey conducted in June, the three draft concepts have been tailored to reflect the community's aspirations. Visitors to the open house will have an opportunity to not only provide feedback but also to cast their vote for the name of the new park, selected from options inspired by community suggestions.
In an effort to be inclusive, the project team will supply handouts in Russian, Ukrainian, and Spanish, ensuring diverse community members are fully engaged. According to information provided by Clark County Public Works, attendees can expect refreshments while they discuss potential park features with the staff before and after the formal presentation.
For those interested in attending virtually via Webex, registration is available on the project's webpage, thereby receiving a convenient email reminder with a direct link to the meeting. The presentation's materials and a recording will be posted online within five days post-event for those unable to attend.
Accessibility is a priority, as residents requiring interpretation, translation, or special accommodations can reach out to the project manager directly. Anyone seeking further details on the project, as well as updates on other road and park projects in the vicinity, is encouraged to follow Public Works on social media platforms such as X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, or view updates on Nextdoor.
