PLAN's read: high threat
BLM Las Vegas Field Office classifies public land for lease and eventual transfer under the Recreation and Public Purposes Act. This moves federal land toward private or local government control, removing it from federal management and public access permanently.
In the agency’s own words
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Las Vegas Field Office, has examined and found suitable for classification, to lease and subsequently conveyance, approximately 121.95 acres of public land under the provisions of the R&PP Act, as amended. The City of Las Vegas proposes to develop the land into a public park to address the growing recreational needs in the northwestern part of the Las Vegas Valley.

Every group above is on STAND for Public Lands, with its court record, its filings and who backs it.
Who signs it
The notice names no signer PLAN could read. PLAN names a decision-maker only when the document names one.
The ground
The window has closed, so there’s no watch to set on it here.
The photograph on this page: Pronghorn in sagebrush steppe. It’s the country this decision sits in, not the site itself. More Than Just Parks.
In court on this ground
This fight isn’t bound to a land unit in PLAN’s record yet, so there are no court cases to show for its ground.
Who holds the vote
PLAN’s record doesn’t tie a member of Congress to this fight yet. The scorecard grades the votes and bills that decide public lands; nothing joins a vote or a bill to this decision, so there’s no member to name here without guessing.
