BACKGROUND: 


At the August 6, 2019, Clark County Board of County Commissioners (County Commission) meeting, the County Commission directed staff to develop a process to establish cultural districts within unincorporated Clark County. The County Commission approved the Clark County Cultural District Designation Policy (Policy) to establish a formal process to create cultural districts throughout unincorporated Clark County at its September 17, 2019, meeting.

On September 12, 2024, staff met with representatives from the Filipino Community and received the application for "Filipino Town".

On September 24, 2024, Commissioner Segerblom met with representatives from the Filipino Community.

Commissioner Segerblom has requested an agenda item to discuss the designation of a cultural district to be known as “Filipino Town”.
