BACKGROUND: 

The Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) provides a vehicle for citizen participation in the County's U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant programs.  CDAC meetings for the County's HOME and Emergency Solutions Grant programs will be held from December 2023 through February 2024. The Committee will work with staff in developing project selection priorities, reviewing proposals, holding public hearings, making funding recommendations, and monitoring program implementation.

Committee composition includes: one representative and one alternate from each of the town advisory boards, citizens’ advisory councils; one from the Cities of North Las Vegas, Mesquite, and Boulder City, as well as fourteen at-large individuals representing general community concerns.  Town advisory boards and citizens’ advisory councils have submitted nominees for Commission appointment except for Lower Kyle Canyon, Mt. Charleston, and Sandy Valley which have declined representation. The nominations for the town advisory boards and citizens’ advisory councils of Goodsprings, Indian Springs, Mountain Springs, Paradise, and Sunrise Manor will be made at future meetings. The Cities of North Las Vegas, Boulder City, and Mesquite are authorized to make their own respective appointments who serve in an ex-officio manner. The Cities of Boulder City and Mesquite declined representation. The Commission is responsible for monitoring and appointing the 14 at-large members.  It is recommended that Mr. Christopher Lee serve as Chairperson.
