    March 2019 Northeast Newsletter Clark County Commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick 500 South Grand Central Parkway Box 551601 Las Vegas, NV. 89155-1601 702-455-3500 Dear Residents, Thank you so much for taking the time to be engaged in your community. We are looking forward to some projects breaking ground this spring or early summer. While I know it’s frustrating that government is slow, we run into challenges because we must abide by state law. Additionally, we have to compete with the private sector in getting both engineering and architectural companies to work on County projects. We love hearing from you, so feel free to reach out anytime. Marilyn 1 Commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick, Vice President of Southwest Gas Operations John Hester and Mayor Al Litman Marilyn has been working on bringing natural gas to Mesquite since 2012 when she served as an Assemblywoman in the Nevada Legislature and has continued working towards this goal after becoming a Clark County Commissioner in 2016. Marilyn was able to see all the effort come to fruition on February 13, 2019 as Danielle’s Chocolates & Popcorn became the first business to use natural gas in Mesquite. Marilyn knew bringing natural gas to Mesquite would serve as a benefit to attract diverse businesses to the area and would give homeowners more options. 2 A hero can be defined in many Resident of the Month ways, this month we’re happy to recognize Luke Minogue for the bravery and selfless act of kindness he showed to a woman in distress. On June 8, 2018 Luke assisted in saving the life of a woman who was contemplating suicide while standing on a bridge over the I-15.
