PUBLIC COMMENT Public comment is a period devoted to comments by the general public on items listed on the Agenda. All comments are limited to five (5) minutes. Chair Jones asked if anyone wished to address the Board pertaining to items listed on the Agenda. (Member Giunchigliani arrived and was seated at 8:47am) Kathleen Peterson, addressed the board. She noted she had applied for an at-large member position in the past, was selected and received orientation, then was replaced by another person. She has continued to follow the proceedings of the Board. She noted on several occasions the Board was made aware of problems with the facility, as was she in her Board Orientation. (Member Beers left the meeting at 8:48am) She stressed that public health is a branch of the National Incident Management System, and as such is deemed a first responder. She said that employees must be co-located in order to deliver services and respond to emergencies as they occur. (Member Wood arrived and was seated at 8:50am) She questioned the reduction in funding to the district and why monies set aside for a building were to be used for operational expenses when a new building is desperately needed. (Member Beers rejoined the meeting and was seated at 8:51am) Candice Nichols, the executive director of the Gay & Lesbian Community Center of Southern Nevada addressed the Board. She expressed the center’s support for the district and its HIV/AIDS and STD clinics. She described the unique partnership between the district and the Center, and the comfort clients have in obtaining services at the district. She referenced the valuable testing services offered by the clinics and the need to continue these vital services to prevent further spread of sexually transmitted infections. She feels the district needs a permanent home in the medical corridor where clients have access to transportation and other medical services. Alisha Barrett, grant administrator for the Ryan White Part A program addressed the Board. She expressed her support for the proposed lease for clinical space at 400 Shadow Lane. She also Board of Health Minutes Page 4 of 38 May 24, 2012 believes the district needs a home in the medical corridor as the community is familiar with this location and feel comfortable coming to the district for services. Rick Reich, district employee, read a letter into the record addressed to the Southern Nevada District Board of Health dated May 23, 2012 from a local physician, Jerry Cade (attachment #1). Dear Board: I apologize for not being able to personally express to you the importance of having the Southern Nevada Health District HIV program located closely to UMC’s Wellness Center. Despite the fact that Nevada has been hard hit by the AIDS crisis, we have been able to do an incredible job of ensuring that patients have access to care and access to therapy. The linchpin of that has been the relationship between the Clark County health district HIV program and UMC. Over the twenty-five plus years that I have been taking care of patients with HIV, I’ve had the opportunity to look at a number of communities throughout the country and see how they are providing HIV care. Unfortunately, in many of these communities across the country the care is fragmented; and therefore not efficient. That has never been the case here in Las Vegas! Since the beginning of the epidemic the Southern Nevada Health District and UMC have worked closely together to ensure that southern Nevada residents have access to the care they need and the support they deserve. Part of the reason for this has been a close location of Southern Nevada Health District Early Intervention Clinic with UMC’s Wellness Center. This has obvious advantages for patients for multiple reasons. Physical access to care has been complemented by the close collaboration between the health care staff at the Southern Nevada Health District and the Wellness Center. I will be happy to answer any questions that anyone might have. Please feel free to call me on my cell phone at 203-8022 or email me at [email protected]. I encourage you to support keeping the Early Intervention Clinic in the space in which it currently resides. Sincerely, Jerry Cade. At the request of Chair Jones, Mrs. Clark read into the record a written comment submitted earlier in the week (attachment #2): Chair Jones and members of the Board of Health, my name is Michael Lacy, 198 East Alma Overton, NV. I am currently a non-union employee of the Southern Nevada Health District with the Immunizations Project Team. Our team is currently housed in the Alternate District Operations Center (ADOC) at the Henderson Public Health Center. I am sending in my comments via email as I have a heavy workload and am unable to break away from my work location here in Henderson. I would first like to thank Dr. Sands, Environmental Health Director Glenn Savage, and Board Member Woodbury for coming through the Henderson Public Health Center to observe our working situation. Mr. Savage did a great job explaining to Member Woodbury what is normally in the space where we are located and all three had good questions and took the time to find out what we needed here and what is lacking. We are by no means comfortable here and hopefully the observations of those board members that have been kind enough to travel and view the situation can be beneficial in helping us to at the very least find a better temporary space. I am writing in regards to the search for a permanent replacement facility.

  • Designing Eden: the Future of Rule Based City-Making
    CULTURAL PRODUCTION Designing Eden: The future of rule based city-making Maria Del C. Vera1, Shai Yeshayahu2 1University of Nevada Las Vegas, School of Architecture, Las Vegas, NV 2Ryerson University, School of Interior Design Toronto, ON ABSTRACT: The omnipresence of the algorithmic gaze is not just easing the capacity to crawl, index, and rank everything according to rule-based praxises but also shifting the dimensions of where, when, and how citizens move or circulate through the urban commons (O'Brien, 2018). In the absence of urban thinkers or participatory planning, these new alterations take place within the invisible peripheries of algorithms. This paper examines the change, and the spatial currencies reconditioned by the interplay of city-making and city-indexing as infrastructure, urban spaces, and built settings become indistinctively itemized. It recognizes that this is an ongoing process that continues to flatten, catalog, and index the physical characteristics of space which produces a virtual inventory of urban proportions subjecting city officials to accelerate the re-privatization, deregulation, and re-colonization of vast territories. It is within these transactions that we see a re-territorializing of the city's context and the uneven usage of spatial distribution underway. In the case of the American city, the range of impact caused by these emerging transactions is seemingly local, but we claim that the dynamics of city-indexing reverberate across different scales extending from local to regional, and national proportions. To depict our work, we choose a comparative method that aims to associate the impact of rule- base praxis with changes at the urban and regional scale.

  • At Zappos, Pushing Shoes and a Vision
    At Zappos, Pushing Shoes and a Vision Photo Tony Hsieh, chief executive of Zappos, at the trailer park in Las Vegas that he both owns and calls home. Credit Brad Swonetz for The New York Times On a sizzling June morning in Las Vegas, 10 Zappos.com employees sat in an air-conditioned conference room decorated with “Star Wars” memorabilia and a mural of Darth Vader. They had gathered for a weekly meeting to discuss new internal software, the sort of routine get-together that keeps corporate America humming. But like all meetings these days at Zappos, the online merchant best known for its shoes, this one followed a strict format determined by a radical self- management system called Holacracy. The goal of Holacracy is to create a dynamic workplace where everyone has a voice and bureaucracy doesn’t stifle innovation. At Zappos, this means traditional corporate hierarchy is gone. Managers no longer exist. The company’s 1,500 employees define their own jobs. Anyone can set the agenda for a meeting. To prevent anarchy, processes are strictly enforced. At the June meeting, a trained facilitator, in this case a young bearded man wearing a blue baseball hat, followed the Holacratic method by asking attendees to “get here, get present, get now,” and encouraged everyone in the room to briefly check in. Photo A shopping area made out of shipping containers is part of an effort to enliven downtown Las Vegas. Credit Brad Swonetz for The New York Times “I’m a little sleepy,” said a wiry man. “It’s warm out,” was the next reply.
