Clark County wants to overhaul how it processes short-term rental applications, but do they even know what to do with short-term rentals? Nevada Current deputy editor April Corbin Girnus joins Jesse Merrick to break down the county’s complicated relationship with STRs and what the proposed changes could mean for the future of Airbnbs in the valley. Then we break down what kind of impact $715,000 in new funding for crossing guards around school zones could have on the safety of local kids as they travel to school. And in our Vegas Obsessions, we’re kickin’ it like it’s the ’90s with some of our favorite artists of years past coming to Vegas and recapping the farmer’s market at Huntridge Circle Park and what it could mean for the future of one of downtown’s long-dormant green spaces.
