Nevada passed a new law called AB 121, which changes how residential leases are written after October 1, 2025. It requires a landlord to state the monthly rent as one total price. This price must include all mandatory fees.

After years of effort, groundbreaking for the Forever One Memorial - the permanent memorial to honor those we lost on #1October in 2017 and the response by the Las #Vegas community in the aftermath. The memorial is being built on the location where the tragedy took place.

Today, on the ninth anniversary of the mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival, we pause to honor the 58 lives taken that night and everyone forever affected by that tragic day. 💔 The Las Vegas Community Healing Garden stands as a place of remembrance and reflection, with 58 memorial trees, the Tree of Life and countless heartfelt mementos left with love. 🌳 With its flowers, benches and peaceful paths, the garden offers a space for our community to reflect, heal and remember. At its center, the Remembrance Wall serves as a permanent tribute to the strength and resilience of the survivors and our community. 🦋 Tonight at 7 p.m., we will gather for a remembrance ceremony honoring the victims and survivors. @mayoroflasvegas and Mayor Pro Tem Olivia Diaz will read the names of the 58 victims as a bell tolls and a candle is lit in each person’s memory. You can pay your respects by watching the remembrance ceremony live: -City of Las Vegas TV on Spectrum Channel 2 (formerly Cox) 📺 -YouTube: @CityofLasVegasTV ▶️ -Facebook: @cityoflasvegas 💻 -X: @cityoflasvegas 📱 Rebroadcast schedule on City of Las Vegas TV, Spectrum Channel 2: • Oct. 1 at 10 p.m. • Oct. 2 at 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. • Oct. 3 at 6 a.m. and 3 p.m. • Oct. 4 at 11 a.m. • Oct. 5 at 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. A note on the number of victims: 58 people lost their lives as a direct result of the Oct. 1, 2017, shooting.
