Climate Community Advisory Group

What is the Climate Community Advisory Group (CAG)?

The Community Advisory Group (CAG) for the Clark County Climate Project is supporting the county’s efforts to implement new state climate change planning legislation (ES2HB 1181), in which the county is now required to add a Climate Change Element to its Comprehensive Plan by June 30, 2025. The CAG is using a consensus-based approach and striving to provide a recommendation for Planning Commission and County Council consideration.

The CAG will:

  • Share a broad range of perspectives and experiences to ensure the Climate Element project represents a wide range of community interests;
  • Use a consensus-based process;
  • Act as liaisons to specific constituencies or interest groups;
  • Advise staff on project priorities;
  • Review and provide feedback on key project deliverables;
  • Develop goal and policy recommendations to meet the requirements of new state climate legislation.

CAG members are appointed by the County Manager. Please find a list of members below:
