Jordan said the authority manages a portfolio that includes more than 13,000 Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8) serving over 45,000 residents and maintains a combined waitlist of about 32,000 people. He said the agency’s annual budget is approximately $244,000,000 and that the authority currently has about 1,600 units either under construction (roughly 800) or under rehabilitation (roughly 800).

Jordan highlighted a federal Choice Neighborhood Initiative award of $50 million to revitalize the Marble Manor area; he said that grant will leverage additional private and public investment and that the housing authority’s planning and partnership work brought those dollars into the region. He also described a nearly $3 million jobs‑focused award tied to the Choice work that will provide employment training and pathways for residents; together Jordan characterized the federal awards as about $53 million in recent federal support for the initiative.

Jordan described other programs the authority runs to increase housing access: a landlord incentive program to recruit landlords to accept vouchers (the authority reported 107 new units from 55 new landlords year‑to‑date), a Family Self‑Sufficiency program in which participants earn escrowed rent contributions back as they meet self‑sufficiency goals (recent graduations returned over $400,000 in escrow to participants), and a pre‑apprenticeship program with direct hiring outcomes. He said the authority works to spread affordable opportunities across jurisdictions and to partner with local governments and developers.

Councilmembers thanked Jordan and noted interest in local breakdowns of voucher usage and site tours. Council members asked about wait times; Jordan said waits vary by unit type and can be several years for some applicants. He offered to provide council with jurisdiction‑specific voucher and program participation numbers and to arrange tours of housing authority properties.

The item was a presentation and required no council action.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","North Las Vegas - City Council - Apr 16, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Southern Nevada Regional Housing Authority briefed the City Council on programs and projects, including a $50 million Choice Neighborhood Initiative award plus a $3 million jobs program, more than 13,000 housing choice vouchers, a combined waitlist over 30,000 applicants, and roughly 1,600 units currently under construction or rehabilitation.","taxTitle","North Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada","taxId",2672,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6600181,"Votes at a glance: April 16 North Las Vegas City Council approves rezoning, several vacates; consent agenda passes",2332,1484000,3816000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3221921-ace215eff2fba99ad999710e53936400&start=1484&end=3816","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3221921-ace215eff2fba99ad999710e53936400/thumbnail_1484000.jpg","/articles/6600181/North-Las-Vegas/Clark-County/Nevada/Votes-at-a-glance-April-16-North-Las-Vegas-City-Council-approves-rezoning-several-vacates-consent-agenda-passes","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6600181-6e918b244bd0396aa65384179edaeed8/orig.mp4?Expires=1773109190&Signature=SjIq0eqPF850AxrxB-LTXTnRY4NKiECxt5qXAHNhWfbcyWtwFVsG8Q-DY~RFufIEzuT4zURIndYB4jDCSzZike9uoWuVRDATzaKpNXIvSbiw2EBSFS8L8-vjSOtS1~xlb7WCsl1HJO-lmD2UG9KbZAOwISSbEM356wKnCtzKlV9z2sAYvFcb~0e~5kcVRjBhuB6mi0T5TYhN6~Q7MW7z~F3wVrbxair7uJE4d6qMLdj35pN9~R7vs83uzw1bnHpbmOOw6tc~TyRZ4aNpTlVVFwSHbi8MWKblbkSAnck8FLlNKoBUfYahzlFi55FHhTGzuqp37vFrDFON1sHhZgq~3A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The North Las Vegas City Council on April 16 approved a series of routine and land‑use actions during its regular meeting.

The transcript records no roll‑call vote tallies (yes/no/abstain by member) for these items; the clerk repeatedly announced motions “pass” after each motion. Where public comments were made (notably on the North Fifth/Hammer items), councilmembers asked staff and applicants to proceed with traffic studies and to coordinate with nearby schools.

Lexa Green, representing the applicant D.R. Horton, told the council the 9.9‑acre site is proposed as detached two‑story homes ranging from 2,429 to 2,985 square feet and lots generally between about 3,864 and more than 5,300 square feet. Green said the project would replace an outdoor storage site and “enhance the area, clean it up a bit, and be aesthetically pleasing.”

Neighbors urged delay or stronger mitigation over traffic and student safety. Teresa Bray, a nearby resident, said she surveyed the neighborhood and counted hundreds of vehicles during morning peak periods, and warned that 67 homes would add “a 34 new cars minimum” and exacerbate backups at the Donna/Hammer intersection. Alicia Blando said Anne Street and Donna Street already experience congestion and crashes that concern pedestrians and schoolchildren.

Council members acknowledged residents’ safety concerns. Councilman Churchill, who moved approval of both items, told residents he and others had briefed the developer about neighborhood concerns and said the council will continue engagement after approval. Councilwoman Ruth Garcia asked the applicant to consult with the adjacent charter school, Freedom Classical Academy, about arrival and dismissal impacts and to coordinate on traffic‑management ideas before school is out.

Green said the developer met neighbors and planning staff, and that traffic mitigation will follow the standard engineering process: the developer’s traffic engineer will prepare a study of existing volumes and projected project trips, and staff will review required improvements. She said potential mitigations discussed included making Donna/Hammer a four‑way stop if the traffic study supports it, striping bike lanes on Donna to narrow travel lanes and slow traffic, and constructing the full roadway (sidewalks, lighting) where Donna is currently not fully built out. Green noted that speed bumps on a public right of way are not an option per public‑works guidance.

The council approved the comprehensive‑plan amendment (AMP‑01‑2025) and the zoning reclassification to RCL (ZN‑02‑2025, Ordinance No. 3245). No roll‑call vote tally was read into the record; the clerk announced each motion passed. Council discussion and developer comments made clear the approvals are contingent on technical plan reviews and any required traffic improvements identified through the traffic‑study and engineering review.

The council and developer emphasized continuing outreach. Churchill said residents would retain a direct line to council and staff if issues arise during implementation. Garcia asked staff to clarify the timing and process for the traffic study and pledged to contact the school to coordinate on traffic strategies.

The approvals allow the applicant to proceed to subsequent engineering and permit steps; required public‑works approvals and condition compliance will be determined during plan review. No construction schedule was specified at the hearing.","The North Las Vegas City Council approved a master‑plan amendment and zoning change to allow a 67‑lot single‑family subdivision at North Fifth and Hammer Lane. Residents and council members highlighted traffic and school‑area safety concerns; the developer said a traffic study and potential mitigation measures will guide required street changes.","actionData","errors"]
