CARSON CITY -- A resolution asking the federal government to release 5,000 acres in Clark County to develop a public shooting range was approved Monday by the Senate Natural Resources Committee.

Assembly Joint Resolution 6 cites safety concerns over new population centers being located near several long-standing shooting areas.

In addition, the shooting ranges owned by Metro Police and the North Las Vegas Police Department will also need to be relocated in the near future, the resolution says.
