SUMMARY:Designing for the Mojave Aesthetic: A Conversation on Native Landscaping Policy\, Practice\, and Performance
DESCRIPTION:Las Vegas is at an inflection point. As water scarcity intensifies and landscape standards evolve\, the case for native and regionally adaptive planting has never been stronger — yet barriers in procurement\, policy\, availability\, and perception continue to slow adoption. \nJoin the AIA Las Vegas Placemaking Committee on April 30 for a dynamic moderated panel exploring how landscape decisions are made in Southern Nevada\, from concept through installation and long-term maintenance. This discussion will bring together leading voices across design\, horticulture\, policy\, and practice to share real-world experience on cost\, procurement\, risk\, and performance when working with native and regionally adaptive plant material. \nThe panel will focus on what works\, what does not\, and how project teams are adapting their approach to create more durable\, climate-appropriate landscapes without sacrificing project goals. Attendees will gain insight into the biggest challenges in incorporating native plant material\, the limitations surrounding plant availability and procurement\, the importance of collaboration across teams\, and the long-term maintenance considerations that impact project success. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn what part of the project lifecycle presents the biggest challenges in incorporating native and regionally adaptive plant material.\nLearn the challenges that exist in scaling native and regional plant availability compared to traditional landscape palettes.\nAssess how collaboration impacts the feasibility and execution of native landscaping strategies.\nAssess how native and regionally adaptive landscapes perform over time\, including maintenance requirements\, common failure points\, and strategies for long-term success.\n\nModerated by:\nJazmine Harris\, AIA — Placemaking Committee Chair\, AIA Las Vegas \nPanelists: \n\nNorm Schilling\nMelissa Gonzalez\nKym Martin\n\nEvent Details:\nDate: April 30\nLocation: UNR Cooperative Extension\, 8050 Paradise Rd #100\, Las Vegas\, NV 89123 — Classrooms B&C \nAttendees may also have the opportunity to participate in a tour of the new native garden\, seed greenhouse\, harvesting area\, or seed library before or after the panel discussion. \nThis event is presented by the AIA Las Vegas Placemaking Committee as part of its ongoing commitment to design excellence\, sustainability\, and the transformation of the built environment in Southern Nevada. \nNote: Classroom assignment is subject to change. Updates will be communicated prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Affordable Housing Innovation: Health Partnerships\, Cooperative Homeownership\, and Modular Construction
DESCRIPTION:Housing stability plays a critical role in public health\, economic resilience\, and community wellbeing. This program explores innovative development strategies that connect housing\, healthcare partnerships\, cooperative ownership models\, and modular construction to expand access to safe and affordable housing. Jeremy Liu\, CEO of Creative Development Partners\, will share how mission-based real estate development can improve health outcomes\, strengthen communities\, and create sustainable pathways to prosperity in under-resourced neighborhoods. \nJeremy Liu\, CEO of Creative Development Partners (CDP)\, will present recent initiatives that leverage real estate development\, complex financing\, creative placemaking\, and small business support to build community prosperity while maintaining multiple bottom-line outcomes: financial viability\, environmental sustainability\, and measurable community benefit. The presentation will examine emerging approaches such as health-prescribed housing\, partnerships with healthcare providers to improve health outcomes through stable housing; cooperative homeownership models that expand access to long-term financial stability; and modular off-site construction strategies that can accelerate housing production while improving quality\, safety\, and cost control. \nParticipants will gain insight into how architects\, planners\, and development professionals can contribute to housing solutions that improve public health\, expand equitable homeownership opportunities\, and deliver resilient\, sustainable communities. The session highlights the role of design and development strategies in addressing housing shortages\, improving occupant health and safety\, and strengthening the social and economic vitality of underserved neighborhoods. \nLearning Objectives \n1. Explain the relationship between housing stability and public health outcomes\, and how housing interventions can improve wellness for under-resourced populations. \n2. Identify health risks associated with unstable or inadequate housing\, including the impacts on vulnerable and tenuously housed populations. \n3. Evaluate holistic development strategies that integrate housing\, healthcare partnerships\, and community investment to improve health\, safety\, and welfare outcomes. \n4. Describe cooperative homeownership models and their role in expanding equitable access to housing\, long-term financial stability\, and community resilience. \n5. Recognize the opportunities and challenges of modular off-site construction\, including its potential to improve construction safety\, quality control\, speed of delivery\, and affordability in housing development. \nCredits: 1 LU|HSW Pending
