City Of Las Vegas Making Changes Related To Newest Directive, Guidance From Governor’s Office
Changes Relate To Outdoor Recreation, Curbside Pickup
The city of Las Vegas will now allow curbside pickup of retail items, packaged liquor and cannabis. The changes are related to the newest directive and guidance from the governor’s office for the loosening of restrictions on nonessential retail businesses, as well as reopening certain outdoor recreation opportunities.
Beginning tomorrow, the city will issue free permits for the city’s package liquor and marijuana dispensary licensees that will allow these businesses to offer curbside operations under the governor’s latest direction. City staff will reach out to these businesses to let them know of the changes and be on hand throughout the weekend to help businesses with any questions they have on the curbside operating requirements.
More information on the guidelines and new permits can be found on the city’s website at http://lasvegasnevada.gov/coronaviruslicensing.
Outdoor tennis and pickleball at city courts will also resume at 5:30 a.m. tomorrow at the following locations until parks close at 11 p.m.:
- Aloha Shores Park
- Angel Park
- Bill Briare Park
- Bob Baskin Park
- Bruce Trent Park
- Children’s Memorial Park
- Durango Hills Park
- Garehime Heights Park
- Lorenzi Park
- Mountain Ridge
- Patriot Park
- Police Memorial Park
- Raphael Rivera Park
- Sunny Springs Park
- Wayne Bunker Park
- Wildwood Park
Several golf courses and tennis facilities located on city-owned property are operated by a third party. Tennis facilities include the Amanda and Stacy Darling Tennis Center, No Quit Tennis Academy located at Lorenzi Park, and All American Tennis Club at All-American Park. Golf courses include Angel Park Golf Club, Desert Pines Golf Club, Durango Hills Golf Club and Las Vegas Golf Club. For information on those facilities, residents should contact them directly.
The governor has signed a directive extending a majority of the stay-at-home measures through mid-May, but will be easing some restrictions starting May 1, 2020. Nevada will continue to remain under the stay-at-home order, but the new directive signed this week will allow Nevadans expanded outdoor and recreational activities and provide some relief for small business owners.
Prior to the directive, the city allowed brew pubs to have curbside pickup and delivery of food and alcohol, as well as permitting restaurants the ability to deliver alcohol along with food, as well as the curbside sale of alcohol with meal pickup. The city also allowed liquor establishments to deliver alcohol. The city has heard from business owners that these programs are especially helpful, as their operations are impacted by closures/restrictions related to the coronavirus.
