Las Vegas District-specific standards for street trees

Las Vegas Unified Development Code § 19.09.040(C) provides standards for street trees in specific zoning districts. The intent is to promote and protect unique, high-quality, walkable environments in the Downtown by providing a district-specific tree palette and planting requirements. Planting requirements have been developed from the objectives expressed in the Vision 2045 Downtown Master Plan, using the Nevada Division of Forestry Las Vegas Valley Urban Canopy Analysis and the Regional Plant List developed by the SNRPC, to promote environmental, social, and economic benefits.
