🍸 Hey …
Remember when I joined City Cast Las Vegas co-hosts Dayvid Figler and Sarah Lohman to talk about our favorite secret Las Vegas Strip recommendations?

What's CITY Talking About?
⚾ A’s Stadium a Parking Headache?
New blueprints of the A’s 30,000-seat baseball stadium resemble the Sydney Opera House more than ever. Construction is supposed to start in a few months, but county code requires 7,500 parking spaces. The team wants an exemption to provide less than 2,500. [KTNV]
🧑💼 Working for the City? Not So Fast 👎
The City of Las Vegas remains in a hiring freeze while in “recovery mode” from its mega-settlement with a home developer over the Badlands golf course site. Some positions could be filled if employees leave their current roles. [KSNV]

📝 UNLV Feels the Heat on DEI Hiring
UNLV appears to be downplaying its “Commitment to Diversity” requirements by scrubbing a diversity, equity, and inclusion scorecard ranking for job candidates from the university’s human resources webpage. The Trump administration is withholding funds for schools that won’t drop DEI initiatives. [KLAS]
