Clark County NAC conflict resolution committee recommends apology, bylaw overhaul; no vote after quorum not met

The Neighborhood Association Council (NAC) conflict resolution committee presented a package of recommendations to address two formal complaints about conduct and governance, but the council did not take formal action because it lacked a quorum.

Bridal Franklin, vice president of the Kirk neighborhood and a member of the conflict resolution committee, said the committee had documented two formal complaints and recommended four steps: "Number 1, the executive board issues a formal apology to complaint number 1. Number 2, form a new NAC and ACC committee to draft new NAC bylaws and a new NACC meeting format. Number 3, hold NACC board elections following bylaw update...and number 4, neighborhood program coordinator, Marlene McCall, should facilitate all NAC meetings until after the board elections," Franklin said.

Why it matters: committee members described overlapping complaints about an "unwelcoming atmosphere," a lack of communication between the NAC executive board and neighborhood associations, and perceived bylaw violations. The recommendations, if adopted, would change how NAC meetings are run, who manages outreach and meeting facilitation, and the timeline for electing officers at the NAC level.
