The commission finally denied the amendment and Red Rock remains protected. Watching the skyline stay clear instead of seeing it filled with development feels like a dream. Thank you for helping me keep this place wild for my own kids and for everyone who finds peace in that canyon.
“Say No” to the Red Rock Overlay Amendment
DENY ORD-0210-10.
We, the undersigned, oppose the ordinance to amend the Red Rock Overlay, and ask The Clark County Commission to deny ORD-0210-10 on April 21, 2010. We request that Clark County not settle with Gypsum Resources LLC or its managers, Truckee Springs Holdings, Inc. We believe our neighborhoods, families and children deserve to have the Red Rock Overlay boundaries and protections defended, for the continued preservation of Red Rock Canyon National Conservation area and its natural resources and beauty, for the recreation and quality of life the canyon brings to our community and visitors, both national and international, who travel to see its majestic beauty.
We ask also that the Clark County Commissioners place an Advisory Question on the November 2010 ballot to allow for counties, cities and the state to pass a statute protecting existing and potential environmentally sensitive areas from incompatible development.
I have spent hours reading the stories you all have shared about what the canyon means to your families and it is clear that we are not going to let this landscape be ruined by developers. I am in constant contact with the county office to make sure our concerns are not swept under the rug during upcoming meetings.

Seeing one hundred people put their names behind protecting the canyon leaves me at a loss for words. My family has spent years hiking these trails and I am incredibly grateful to see so many neighbors fighting to keep them safe from development.
