Henderson locals are invited to an informational session on community sustainability. City Hall will host the meeting at the Black Mountain Recreation Center on December 11 at 5:30 p.m., where officials will outline plans to give O’Callaghan Park a water-efficient makeover. The session offers residents an opportunity to hear directly from city representatives about the proposal to remove decorative grass and replace it with low-water landscaping, according to the city’s Facebook announcement.

The purpose of the meeting is to brief residents on the Sustainability Improvement Project, Henderson’s effort to comply with Nevada’s Non-Functional Grass Law amid ongoing drought conditions in the West. Attendees will learn about the planned turf removal and the introduction of drought-tolerant plants, ensuring the community is informed about upcoming changes.

According to the city’s Facebook post, the session also provides a straightforward opportunity for residents to offer input and engage directly in the water-conservation efforts shaping their neighborhood. For those who want more information before the meeting—or who cannot attend—the city has provided an online link with full details.
