twitterEditorial: Success, in microcosm

WEEKEND EDITION
Feb. 7 - 8, 2004
A plan to build a heliport for operators of Grand Canyon tours offers a small-picture look at how growth issues can be successfully managed. The original site off Interstate 15 south of Las Vegas riled residents of Sun City-Anthem, a Henderson retirement community. They objected to the noise that would invade their lives. Working with the residents and helicopter companies, the Clark County Commission found a site a few miles away that all parties can live with.
The task force on big-picture growth that the County Commission is planning to appoint would work on the same principle. Working together, with concern for how building developments and growth policies affect each other, a plan could evolve that the whole Las Vegas Valley could live with.
