The City of North Las Vegas has hired a consultant to prepare a high-quality, creative downtown master plan / investment strategy to define and transform the downtown area into a dynamic place to live, work and be entertained. The downtown master plan shall serve to create a downtown that is a local and regional magnet to residents and visitors.
