Thursday, February 5, 2026, 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM
Description

The Las Vegas metropolitan area will add an estimated 1 million people by 2050. Both challenges and opportunities arise from this growth, and the recently updated Southern Nevada Strong 2050 regional plan utilized scenario planning to develop possible future scenarios for accommodating and coordinating this growth. This presentation provides an overview of how the project team tested a variety of policy interventions to help community members, stakeholders, and local decision-makers better understand the potential benefits and trade-offs of different growth strategies. Learn how community and stakeholder engagement complemented the technical process and how the preferred regional scenario drove an updated regional policy plan to address housing, transportation, and access to economic opportunity.
