Last consolidation meeting planned amid scrapped meetings
The article notes a scheduled 10 am Thursday consolidation gathering at City Hall with top local leaders, but other consolidation related meetings this week are cancelled. Myron Leavitt, chairing Clark County Las Vegas consolidation, urged city and county officials to attend. State legislators from Southern Nevada were expected, including Legislative Oversight Committee members. Attorney General List’s ruling that parts of consolidation are illegal prompted suspension of activities, though some leaders argue it is only an opinion. Leavitt believes action under the warning could invite liability. List may reiterate reasons to halt.
