MCC-5 Marnell Corporate Center6720 Via Austi Pkwy.1

Type: OfficeDeveloper: Marnell Properties / Alan Helms / 702-739-2999Leasing Agent: CBRE / Jayne Cayton, Bret Davis / 702-369-4800Architect: Marnell ArchitectureGeneral Contractor: Summit BuildersDate Built: May-07Status: CompletedProject Square Footage: 117,000Development Acreage: 3.75Asking Rates: $3.00-$3.25 FSGMajor Tenants: Marnell Keating, TEKsystems, The Loughton Company, Kemper Mort-gage

COMMENTS:MCC-5 is the first five-story Class A office building within the prestigious and sophisticat-ed Marnell Corporate Center. It offers a dramatic two-story lobby entrance, scenic viewsand the highest quality of services and amenities. The building has a unique independentparking structure and is adjacent to the 2006 NAIOP Building of the Year, MCC-4.

T he Airport industrial submarkethas a total inventory of approxi-mately 13.3 million square feet,

which accounts for roughly 14.5 per-cent of Las Vegas’ total inventory,making it the third largest submarketin the Valley. As of second quarter2007, the vacancy rate was 4.2 per-cent down from 5 percent last year.

The Airport market is already hometo a host of gaming and resort related companies due to its prox-imity to the Strip and the Valley’s freeway system. It will contin-ue to see a migration of gaming companies due to the tremen-dous growth on the Strip and the realization that the back officeand warehouse requirements of the gaming companies are bet-ter suited off premises. Relocating these departments off theStrip properties enables operators to free up valuable space forhigher and better uses.

Rapidly escalating land prices forced new development inthis supply constrained market to better uses than the tradition-al industrial product. With the exception of EJM, there will no

longer be any more speculative mid-bay or distribution develop-ment in this submarket. In fact, there are very few sizeableparcels available, period, regardless of pricing. One interestingproject that will be under construction is the 740 @ Hughes Air-port Center project, which is being developed by Centra RealtyCorporation, based out of Irvine, Calif. This project represents thefirst speculative development for sale within the Hughes AirportCenter in many years. It will feature Class A office and R&D / In-dustrial product from 1,500 to 22,000 square feet and will pre-sent a unique opportunity for tenants in the Hughes Airport Cen-ter to own their own facilities. Developers have turned to thistype of product in order to make projects economically feasible,as rental rates and sales prices on mid-bay and distribution prod-uct do not justify development.

I have witnessed the price escalation in the Hughes AirportCenter and surrounding area, and believe the fundamentalsthat have pushed increases remain and will only becomestronger in the coming years. Developers, tenants and usershave proved that they are willing to pay a substantial premiumfor an excellent location, especially if there is extremely littleland to purchase.

Because NAIOP wanted to make sure each property on this year’sBus Tour got the attention it deserved, the tour was divided into tworoutes, roughly east and west of the I-15 freeway. Because of this,the numbers for the properties sometimes do not match up with thesubmarkets in numerical order.

Please take our word for it: the properties as listed here belong in thesubmarket where they’re located. Please refer to pages 56 and 57for the complete Bus Tour map and the accompanying list of prop-erties from 1 through 83.

Have a wonderful Bus Tour!

T he Central Office Submarket iscomprised of several older officecorridors in the Las Vegas Valley

with +/- 2,681,633 square feet of gen-eral office space and 755,879 squarefeet of medical office space. This sub-market had a 9.88 percent vacancyrate in general office space and 10.04percent in medical office space at theend of the second quarter 2007. The

primary office corridors are East Flamingo Road, West Sahara Av-enue and Downtown Las Vegas.

The Flamingo Road office corridor has not seen a significantdevelopment in recent years with the exception of the continueddevelopment of the Howard Hughes Center. Crescent Real Es-tate completed construction of 3883 Howard Hughes Parkway insecond quarter 2007 and is 95 percent occupied with $3.85 FSGasking rents.

The Sahara Office Corridor has also been negatively impact-ed by the emergence of the Southwest office submarket. TheNevada Financial Center which was this corridor’s first Class A

office development is +/- 158,000 square feet and remains thecornerstone of this office corridor at 100 percent occupancy with$2.95 FSG asking rents.

Downtown Las Vegas redevelopment is starting to gain mo-mentum with the proposed REI project that is to be anchored bya sports stadium to the north of West Charleston Boulevard. Otherprojects in the Downtown submarket include: the IRS building onOgden Avenue; the Molasky Corporate Center/Southern NevadaWater Authority building; the Las Vegas Premium Outlet Center;Phase III of World Market; the Jewelry Mart; and Union Park.

The Medical District just west of I-15 has around 1.4 mil-lion square feet of medical office space with a vacancy rate of4.92 percent. Three hospitals currently operate in this sub-market with 1,228 hospital beds – a ratio of 1,120 square feetof medical office space per hospital bed. Average lease ratesin this submarket are $1.82 per square foot per month whichis slightly above the market average of $1.78 per square footper month.

The Las Vegas market’s growth and strong economy contin-ue to bring many doctors, nurses and other trained healthcareproviders to the market.

T he Northwest office market isbound by the 215 Beltway to thewest, east along Desert Inn Road

to Durango Road, then north to Sum-merlin Parkway, east to Decatur Road,and finally, north where it rejoins the215 Beltway. As of the second quarterof 2007, it consists of more than 7.7million square feet of space, whichrepresents approximately 21 percent

of all office space in Southern Nevada. Approximately 9.8 percentor just under 759,000 square feet is vacant, an increase from 5.6percent vacancy last year.

Absorption for the first two quarters of 2006 was a healthy144,000 square feet. As of the second quarter 2007, there wasalmost 194,000 square feet under construction-substantially lessthan the 800,000 square feet under construction one year ago.

Leasing rates currently average $2.68 per square foot per monthfull service gross, an increase of $0.29 or 12.1 percent from last year.Most of the increase came from Class A and medical space, whererates have increased 14.7 and 18.4 percent respectively.

The diversity of projects under construction indicates an in-creasing sophistication of the Northwest submarket. At six sto-ries, Pavilion, a 150,000-square-foot Class A project is expectedto stimulate a new era of office development in Summerlin overthe next five years. Plise Companies’ five-story 127,000-square-foot Centennial Corporate Center at Ann Road and the I-95, hasalso raised the standard.

Strong job creation, a healthy supply of competitively pricedhousing and the opening of the Centennial Hills Hospital, will con-tinue to stimulate population growth. As commute times to moreestablished office markets increase, so will the demand for localoffice space. Developers such as American Nevada Company areintegrating office development into master-planned communi-ties, enhancing the quality of future growth.

We can expect a pause in Class A development as the pro-jects under construction absorb. Demand for multi-story Class Boffice product will increase as medium-sized tenants enter thesubmarket. Though land prices have increased, opportunities re-main for Class C projects that will continue to cater to smallertenants. Overall, expect continued healthy absorption of office in-ventory in the Northwest and diversity of product types.

T he Southwest submarket encom-passes the area between Flamin-go Road to the north, the I-15 to

the east, the California State line to thesouth and the Spring Mountain rangeto the west. Containing an approximate12 percent share of the current exist-ing office inventory in the Las VegasValley, the Southwest attributed tomore than 30 percent of the office ab-

sorption in the second quarter of 2007.The Southwest submarket continues to lead office develop-

ment in the Las Vegas Valley, accounting for more than 64 per-cent of new construction. Ideally located between the two largestresidential master-plans in Southern Nevada (Summerlin andGreen Valley) the Southwest submarket will evolve into one of theValley’s core submarkets. Projects with visibility and quick ac-cess to the I-215 Beltway have generated the most demand withan average vacancy rate of 3 percent. The majority of tenantsmoving to this area are somewhat larger users (between 10,000and 25,000 square feet) than the traditional Las Vegas office

user. In contrast, the typical tenant size for office users in the Val-ley is 3,000 to 7,000 square feet.

Increasing land prices in the Southwest and constructioncosts have pushed future development toward mid-rise Class Aand B office product. The majority of these planned mid-rise of-fice buildings will be a smaller component of mixed-use devel-opments incorporating retail and residential. Rates will continueto adjust upward to offset spikes in local construction costs.

With more than 4.5 million square feet of existing officespace and another 2.7 million square feet planned, the need fordifferentiation has never been greater. For instance, the Park atSpanish Ridge Phase II and LaPour Corporate Center are bothgreen building projects underway in the Southwest looking to at-tract the environmentally conscious office users. Other projectssuch as EJM’s 450-acre, The Arroyo, project will surround itstenants with more than 4 million square feet of retail amenitiesand services.

In summation, the Southwest submarket market remainsstrong as rents increase to an all time high. The Southwestboasts considerable increases in occupancy and market share,due to its exceptional location and economic advantages.

Southwest Office Submarket OverviewBy Taber Thill, Colliers International

Taber Thill

T he Southwest submarket contin-ues to be Las Vegas Valley’s mostdesired area for businesses re-

quiring industrial space centrally locat-ed in the Valley with close proximity to the Las Vegas Strip andMcCarran International Airport. Generally located west of I-15,north of Blue Diamond Road, south of Sahara Avenue and east ofDecatur Boulevard, this area has, within the past two years,jumped further west with a pocket of industrial product (calledThe Arroyo Business Center) located between Buffalo Road andRainbow Avenue along the I-215 freeway. The Southwest in-cludes approximately 28.3 million square feet of industrial space,accounting for about 29 percent of the industrial space in the en-tire valley. With all this in mind, the vacancy rate at the end ofthe second quarter 2007 was at 5 percent, compared to the over-all industrial market vacancy rate of 4.4 percent in Las Vegas.

Over the past years, growth in the Southwest submarket hasgenerally out-paced all other industrial submarkets in the Las

Vegas Valley with almost 1 million square feet of industrial prod-uct under construction. Currently, only North Las Vegas has morespace under construction totaling about 1.5 million square feet.Developable vacant industrial land continues to become morescarce and more expensive forcing developers to take greaterrisks with newly purchased land. The minimal supply of existingland to be developed in the Southwest at this time is very expen-sive ranging from $18 to $25 per square foot. With this in mind,the bulk of the larger multi-tenant projects to be developed overthe next few years will continue to come from EJM DevelopmentCo. at The Arroyo Business Center and Majestic Realty Co. at theBeltway Business Center. Both of these developers have negotiat-ed joint venture arrangements with the Clark County Aviation De-partment on close to 400 acres each.

Regardless of the challenges faced in the Southwest, thissubmarket continues to be the most highly desired industrialsubmarket in Las Vegas for users looking to service all parts ofthe Valley from one location, or service the resort corridor.

or more than 40 years, UnitedHealthcare hasworked to make the healthcare experience betterfor everyone involved, including the more than

110,000 Nevadans it serves today.A major part of enhancing Nevada’s healthcare system re-

volves around keeping costs under control. About 16 percent ofAmerica’s gross domes-tic product is spent oncosts related to health-care, and that percent-age climbs every year.

Many factors con-tribute to rising costs, such as more people using medical ser-vices, advancements in medicine and the rapidly increasingprice of prescription drugs. Add the growing number of olderAmericans and you can see why it’s becoming more difficultfor families and businesses to afford health coverage.

UnitedHealthcare is working to keep healthcare affordable andmore accessible through innovative technology, forward-thinkingplans and a variety of products and services that help peopletake a more active role in their own health and well-being. Witha national network of more than 535,000 physicians and 4,700

hospitals, UnitedHealthcare has designed programs that helppeople get the right care at the right place at the right time. Thecompany organizes access and coverage for medical services,prescription drugs, medical devices and diagnostic testing at thebest possible cost. It also offers wellness programs and supportto help people stay healthy and use medical care more wisely.

The safety of its mem-bers and quality of care arepriorities for UnitedHealth-care, which is why thecompany has investedmore than $3 billion in new

technology, such as an electronic ID card that automaticallyupdates a member’s health records and makes it easier forpatients and providers to access this information. The elec-tronic record system also streamlines administrative workand helps control costs.

To help members make more informed choices, the company de-veloped the UnitedHealth Premium program. This program identifiesphysicians who follow evidence-based guidelines for quality of careand ranks hospitals based on major complication rates, mortalityrates and patient safety processes for more than 50 procedures.

Despite the economic slow downand rising construction costs, newindustrial development in Hender-

son has continued to increase with +/-466,132 square feet of completed con-struction and +/-754,187 square feetcurrently planned and under construc-tion development in second quarter of2007. With a positive net absorption of+/-397,940 square feet, the demand for

industrial properties continues to exceed supply in this area.Current vacancy in Henderson stands at 3.7 percent, up from

3.0 percent last quarter and compared to an overall market va-cancy of 4.4 percent. The average lease rate for industrial space inHenderson has increased $0.02 per square foot to $0.77 persquare foot NNN. A shortage of industrial land in Henderson, and ademand for more mixed-use projects will cause industrial rents tocontinue increasing.

With a limited supply of land zoned for industrial use in Hen-derson, the city is looking to the BLM to expand its borders farthersouth to ensure its long-term economic growth. Current land

prices in Henderson range from $12 to $16 per square foot forparcels under 20 acres and between $17 to $20 per square footfor larger developable parcels. At these prices, Henderson is ap-proaching lease rates and sale prices equivalent to those of thesouthwest and airport submarkets.

A number of master-planned industrial developments are cur-rently planned and under construction in Henderson that will ser-vice the needs of local and national manufacturing and distributionoperations. Conde Del Mar is under construction on 155,832square feet of office/showroom/warehouse space at Valley Free-way Center. Phase III will be completed November 2007. Leaserates will range from $0.70 to $0.75 per square foot NNN. BlevinsIndustrial Associates is under construction on +/-156,000 squarefeet at Traverse Point Distribution Center (formerly Wigwam Distri-bution Center).

Henderson Industrial Submarket OverviewBy Patti Dillon, Colliers International

Patti Dillon

The Henderson office submarket isloosely defined as the area be-tween the Las Vegas Strip and

Pecos Road south of Windmill Lane, to-gether with the area east of Pecos Roadand south of Sunset Road. The sub-market currently consists of approxi-mately 7,089,075 square feet in 356buildings. This supply is up more than11.3 percent with 35 new buildings

from the previous year. As of the second quarter 2007, the vacan-cy rate was 17.20 percent. This is up from last years’ 13.20 per-cent which reflects the weak 2007 year-to-date absorption of81,000 square feet in this submarket.

Lease rates have continued to rise with the submarket’s aver-age rate on a full service basis hitting $2.46 per square foot, withmany newer projects showing rates much higher. Tenant improve-ment allowances on new projects are also starting to rise into the$45 to $50 per square foot range as the cost of constructing im-provements becomes a bigger issue in completing leases.

Current developments include: Steelhead Development’s

100,000 square feet Tuscano Medical Parc adjacent to St. Rose’sSiena Campus; the 65,000 square feet 1505 E. Wigwam Avenueproperty at Stephanie; CityScape, a 167,000 square feet develop-ment for lease or sale along the I-215 at Stephanie; the 52,000 SFPebble Place at Eastern Avenue by Anchor Development; the30,000 square feet Stephanie & I-215 Marketplace; the 125,000square feet Beltway Corporate Center at Eastern & I-215; the63,000 square feet Pecos Springs Business Park at Warm SpringsRoad; American Nevada’s under construction 135,000 square feetfour-story Class A building in Green Valley Corporate Center, whichis already 50 percent pre-leased; the 33,000 square feet ViewpointProfessional Center just completed on Eastern Avenue near Wind-mill Lane; and the six-story, 140,000 Eastgate Phase II atStephanie Avenue and Warm Springs Road.

The I-215 corridor seems to be the epicenter of activity inthis submarket. While we are seeing exciting activity in theStephanie & I-215 area, a large amount of the future growth willcertainly move west along St. Rose Parkway. Plise’s 125-acre,$2 Billion dollar City Crossing development, with more than1,000,000 square feet of office space planned appears ready toget under way.

While the homegrown Gatski Com-mercial Real Estate Services hasmore than 4 million square feet in

its portfolio, clients continue to receive per-sonalized services not often found at otherlarge firms.

“All of our services are customized, wecan sit down and figure out what is best forand with the client,” said Frank Gatski, CPM,CCIM, president of the Las Vegas-basedGatski Commercial Real Estate Services.

Leasing has become a large part of whatthe company does, much of it from theground up for local developers.

Richard Crighton, partner in Nevada-based RCS Development, is working withGatski Commercial Real Estate Services onthe leasing and property management ofthree ground-up retail centers in SouthernNevada. Crighton was referred to GatskiCommercial by another broker and said hewas immediately attracted by the company’s

expertise. “Gatski Commercial provesevery day that their effort will not stop untilthe projects are leased. They are the defin-ition of persistence,” Crighton said.

As Gatski Commercial continues togrow, it hasn’t lost sight of its core busi-ness and the heartbeat of the company:property management.

Charleston Pavilion, LLC retained Gatski Commercial as its property man-agement company for Pavilion, a154,000-square-foot Class A office build-ing at 10801 W. Charleston Blvd. in theSummerlin Centre.

Jason Awad and Iain Finlayson of Pavil-ion welcomed Gatski Commercial Real Es-tate Services to the management role.

“Gatski Commercial has a reputation forcredibility, reliability and integrity,” Awadsaid. ”Also, as long-time Las Vegas resi-dents, we especially like the fact that thecompany is locally owned.” Finlayson said,“Frank and his staff seem focused on re-sults, and we like that."

Ken Kirchmeyer, president of theHawaii-based Kirchmeyer DevelopmentCorporation owns approximately 64,000square feet of commercial space inSouthern Nevada. “Frank Gatski and hisstaff have done an excellent job in

managing our three buildings and wehave all become good friends,” Kirchmey-er said. “The ‘Gatski Team’ has workedhard to keep our buildings in repair andlooking nice; they have a good relation-ship with our lessees and keep a very lowto mostly zero vacancy factor. They alsoprovide excellent monthly financial state-ments, accounting for every dollar. If therewas an award of five stars for the bestmanagement company in Las Vegas, weare sure that it would be given to GatskiCommercial Real Estate Services.”

Gatski Commercial has developed sys-tems and procedures to handle a variety ofservices in-house that many competitorstend to outsource, such as landscaping,building maintenance, emergency re-sponse, mold remediation and a new busi-ness brokerage service.

“It’s always been my experience in thisbusiness, that you are only as good as thepeople you have working for you,” Gatskisaid. The company will soon debut morein-house services, bringing more addedvalue for clients.

Jason Awad of Charleston Pavilion, LLC said Pavilion wasoriginally conceptualized as two three story buildings. Awadwent through the rezoning process for a six story structure onthe site in order to better spotlight some of the building’s focalpoints, which include spectacular views and balconies. “Ourgoal was for a building that would be loved by the communi-ty with architectural elements that were truly Class A in every

way,” he said, referring to the natural stone and stunningglass frontage.

Awad’s long-time colleague Iain Finlayson serves as man-aging director of Pavilion, overseeing tenant coordination,leasing and overall management. “Iain understands that

Pavilion is not just abuilding to our tenantsand he ensures thatclients are receivingClass A service,” Awadsaid. “Iain pays great at-tention to important de-tails and is a big reason

for the success of Pavilion.”Charleston Pavilion, LLC plans to develop other office and

retail projects in the Summerlin Centre area. “The area is veryhot and the demand is certainly there,” Awad said. “Sum-merlin Centre is a premiere location in Southern Nevada. Wecertainly would like to have the opportunity to do more workin that area.” He added that they are also looking to developa Class A office building on the southwest side of Las Vegas,near the Buffalo/Durango corridor.

Currently, the north offers about720,000 square feet total of ex-isting office space, this is twice

the amount of existing square feetfrom the previous year. About 35 percent remains vacant andthere is another 80,000 square feet under construction. The pastcouple of years have shown increases in interest rates, con-struction costs and land values. During that time, many develop-ers were still able to take advantage of the north’s less expensiveland. Developers are still anticipating that many small officeusers will come from future housing developments such as themaster-planned community Aliante. This combined with the cur-rent attraction of affordable housing and the city’s redevelopmentplans, North Las Vegas is in a great position for future absorp-

tion. Many present business owners do not live in the North LasVegas area and have not yet realized the opportunity that existsto service the rapidly growing population in the area. Sales pricesfor free standing office buildings in the north are currently be-tween $185 and $230 per square foot. Rental rates are at an av-erage of $2.58 per square foot, full service gross. This is up about10 percent from the previous year.

Some notable projects in the area include Centennial Corpo-rate Center by Plise, a three-story Class A building for lease locat-ed just west of US 95 and Ann Road. The Park at Northpointe byPLISE is located on Martin Luther King Boulevard between Craigand Alexander roads. First phase of construction is finished andupon completion, the project will total approximately 100,000square feet.

North Las Vegas Office Submarket OverviewBy Chris Jensvold, Colliers International

Chris Jensvold

T he North Las Vegas submarket isbordered by Lake Mead Boule-vard to the south, Decatur Boule-

vard to the west, Nellis Boulevard tothe east and extends beyond the I-215Beltway to the north. As of the secondquarter 2007, the submarket consistsof nearly 27.8 million square feet ofindustrial space, which representsmore than 29 percent of all industrial

space in Southern Nevada. Over the past year, the vacancy ratein North Las Vegas increased slightly from 3.9 percent in thesecond quarter 2006 to 4.8 percent at the end of the secondquarter 2007. Approximately 1.3 million square feet of space isvacant. North Las Vegas is the most active industrial submarketin Southern Nevada with 40 percent of all net absorption occur-ring in the North Las Vegas area.

Industrial space in North Las Vegas is occupied by major dis-tribution or manufacturing companies that service the entirewest or southwest United States. Over the past year, many com-panies that service the local market have expanded or relocated

to North Las Vegas. Lease rates have increased an average of 15percent over the last 12 months with rates for distribution spaceat $0.42 to $0.50 per square foot per month net, $0.60 to $0.70square foot per month for mid-bay dock-high space, and $0.75to $0.90 square foot per month net for flex and incubator type in-dustrial space. The lease rates in the North Las Vegas area are 20percent less than the rates in the Southwest submarket due tothe lower land costs in North Las Vegas. However, over the last12 months, asking prices for land in North Las Vegas are around$12 per square foot from $6.00 to $8.00 per square foot in early2005, to more than $10.00 per square foot in many locations.Many developers still find it hard to pencil industrial warehousebuildings given the high land values and construction costs.

North Las Vegas is well positioned to take advantage of ten-ants leaving the Southwest and Airport submarkets where spaceis more expensive and new inventory is limited. With more than1.2 million square feet under construction and 2.4 million squarefeet planned, tenants will find a nice selection of alternatives inNorth Las Vegas over the next 12 months. However, with 2.8 per-cent vacancy rates in North Las Vegas distribution space, theywill have to wait for new product to be completed.

nion Park is a 61-acre, 11-million-square-footmixed-use development located in the heart ofdowntown Las Vegas. Designed to invigorate and

dramatically enhance the downtown area, Union Park is takingshape as a “city within a city” and is considered the center-piece of downtown redevelopment. The personal legacy of LasVegas Mayor Oscar B. Goodman, Union Park remains a top pri-ority for the City of Las Vegas. It is being developed as a placefor those who live and work in Southern Nevada to dine, shop,people-watch, and enjoy its many cultural and entertainmentofferings. In the city’s historic downtown, Union Park is LasVegas’ only authentic urban center. It not only encompassesdevelopment on the immediate site, but is a part of the dy-namic Union Park District, which includes many of the city’smost significant projects, such as World Market Center, ClarkCounty Government Center, Las Vegas Premium Outlets andMolasky Corporate Center.

Union Park projects announced to date include the Lou RuvoBrain Institute, The Smith Center for the Performing Arts, WorldJewelry Center, Charlie Palmer Boutique Hotel/Condo and AC-

CESS Medical Development, which is planning to build a med-ical office and hotel. The community’s open space has beenplanned to include areas that will accommodate festivals, ex-hibits and art shows, complimenting the substantial art influ-ence of the nearby downtown arts district. Further adding tothe vitality of Union Park are hotels, restaurants, shopping, of-fice and medical facilities. A place to window shop, meetfriends for coffee or dinner, conduct business, visit an artgallery and take in a concert or the ballet, Union Park will de-liver a full-bodied urban experience never before available inLas Vegas. A true mixed-use development, Union Park definesthe very essence of downtown living and will offer a variety ofurban-style residences developed by Newland Communities.These include apartments, condominiums, street-level brown-stones and mid-rise lofts.

As Las Vegas continues to evolve past the glitz and glamourof the Strip, Union Park is destined to become a centralizingforce for the city. It is the obvious gathering place for currentand future generations of Las Vegans seeking a more sophisti-cated and progressive urban experience.

t’s becoming a staple of the Las Vegas landscape: de-velopment and redevelopment projects rapidlysprawling outward and upward. More than 110 high-

rise condo, hotel, mixed-use and other major projects in LasVegas are in various stages of development. Jones Vargas hascontributed to one of Nevada’s largest redevelopment projects,the Las Vegas World Market Center (WMC).

Jones Vargas lawyer Richard Jost played a vital role in theWMC project, helping to set the stage for the redevelopmentmovement in southern Nevada. Backed by the Las Vegas Rede-velopment Agency, the WMC was made possible by a new taxincrement model developed in part by Jost and the Jones Var-gas team.

Centered around the idea that everyone wins or nothing hap-pens, the model was originally introduced to the Las Vegas Re-development Agency as a tool for developers to gain more con-trol over the WMC project. In return, both parties agreed not tocompensate the developer until the area’s property value hadimproved. The Redevelopment Agency adopted the idea and

has since seen an increase in interest from developers, thusgrowing the number of redevelopment projects in Las Vegas.

While Las Vegas works to replace the old with the new,the WMC is booming with success. The project, situated inthe heart of downtown Las Vegas, is in its third phase, withan expected completion date of 2008. Meanwhile, the cur-rent facility, a 530-room, three-million-square-foot furni-ture complex, continues to sponsor semi-annual home andhospitality contract furnishings industry trade shows at-tended by more than 100,000 national and internationalprofessionals.

“This project has rapidly evolved the furniture industry as weknow it today. If the pace continues, I believe it could join thegaming industry, becoming a driving element in Nevada’s econ-omy,” said Richard Jost.

With nearly 80 years of experience, Jones Vargas is a leaderin Nevada Law with offices in Las Vegas and Reno, Jones Var-gas offers legal services in business transactions, litigation andgovernment relations.

housands of Southern Nevadans have heeded thecall to conserve water in the face of an ongoingdrought. Through a variety of incentive programs,

residents and businesses have saved more than 18 billion gal-lons since 2002 – even as the area’s population grew by330,000 residents.

At the same time, businesses are discovering the benefits ofsaving water through Water Efficient Technologies (WET), a pro-gram geared toward Southern Nevada’s commercial sector thathelps reduce overhead costs while realizing long-term savingson water bills.

WET offers incentives of up to $150,000 for commercialand multi-family property owners who install water-efficientdevices, such as toilet retrofits, water-efficient showerheads,waterless urinals, on-site reuse systems and cooling towerimprovements.

To qualify, customers must create at least 500,000 gal-lons of annual savings. The program allows applicants tocombine technologies and multiple business locations to

meet the threshold. Businesses also can work with theSouther Nevada Water Authority to implement custom tech-nologies that meet their business needs, then qualify for aperformance-based monetary incentive.

Consumptive-use technologies (for water not returned to thesanitary sewer system, such as landscape irrigation) earn up to$10 for every 1,000 gallons conserved annually. Nonconsump-tive-use (primarily indoor water use) technologies earn up to$2.50 for every 1,000 gallons conserved annually.

Local businesses also are eligible to participate in theSNWA’s highly successful Water Smart Landscapes (WSL)Rebate program. For grass removed and replaced withwater-smart landscaping, the SNWA will rebate businesses$2 for the first 1,500 square feet. The rebate for the con-version of grass in excess of 1,500 square feet is $1 persquare foot.

The SNWA projects a savings of 825,000 gallons of water peryear for the average 15,000-square-foot conversion to water-smart landscaping.

Southern Nevada’s Office Market SummaryTHE OFFICE MARKET

n the second quarter of 2007,the Las Vegas Valley’s specula-tive office space vacancy rate

remained relatively unchanged from firstquarter, 2007. It increased by 0.1 per-centage points to 10.9 percent. Class Avacancy increased by 3.4 points to 10.5percent, while Class C rose by .08 pointsto 13.5 percent. The Class B vacancy ratewas 10.6 percent (down 1.1 percentagepoint) and medical space was 6.6 percent(down 1.2 points).

Office projects completed in 2007were 38.1 percent vacant. Those com-pleted between first quarter, 2003 andfourth quarter, 2006, had an average va-cancy of 15.6 percent, a decrease fromfirst quarter, 2007’s 17.3 percent. Pro-jects built between 2000 and 2002 aver-aged 4.8 percent vacant, down from lastquarter’s 5 percent. Projects built be-tween 1995 and 1999 were 5.9 percentvacant, a 0.4 percentage point decreasefrom last quarter.

The slight increase in vacancy did notaffect the average monthly asking priceof $2.51 price per square foot FSG whencompared to first quarter, 2007. In real-dollar terms, the Valley’s office rents didnot keep pace with our first quarter, 2001benchmark rates until third quarter,2006, where it has been ahead of thebenchmark ever since. The second quar-ter’s office rents were 10 percent greaterthan first quarter 2001 office rents, inreal-dollar terms.

Class A and Class B saw a rise overfirst quarter average asking rents, withthe largest increase in Class A ($0.08).The submarkets that did increase in av-erage rents were Downtown (up $0.55),North Las Vegas (up $0.10) and EastLas Vegas (up $0.07).

Office projects completed in 2007 rentedfor an average of $2.62 per-square-footper month, while those built between firstquarter, 2003 and fourth quarter, 2006 hadan average monthly asking rent of $2.49per-square-foot in second quarter, downfrom $2.72 per-square-foot in first quarter.

reached 923,227 square feet, 89 percenthigher than that recorded in first quarter.Additionally, 1,161,934 sf of new officespace entered the market in secondquarter, down 10 percent from first quar-ter. Combined, this resulted in a muchhealthier absorption-to-completion ratioof .79 feet of demand for every foot ofnew supply, when compared to firstquarter’s ratio of .47:1.

Most of this new office space was lo-cated in the Southwest (424,896 squarefeet) submarket, followed by East LasVegas, (238,957 square feet), North LasVegas (191,412 square feet) and North-west (171,601). One of the Valley’s old-est office submarket, Downtown, sawvery few completions in second quarter(34,500 square feet), and West Centraland Henderson saw no new comple-tions. By product type, most comple-tions in second quarter were in Class C(495,868 square feet) and Class A build-ings (349,929 square feet), with 42.6

percent and 30.1 percent of the total.Forward-supply increased in second

quarter to 5,775,072 square feet from5,184,232 in first quarter, or by590,840 square feet. Like completions,most of the second quarter forwardsupply was concentrated in the South-west (3.15 million square feet). Approx-imately 24.5 percent (1,415,803 squarefeet) of the forward-supply in secondquarter was under construction, repre-senting approximately 3.8 percent ofthe existing office inventory.

If all of the office space presently underconstruction or planned is completed(which is not likely), it would represent a15.8 percent increase in the Valley’sspeculative office inventory. As a point ofreference, the Valley’s office inventoryhas been growing at an 8.2 percent aver-age annual pace since first quarter, 2003.

Thisaccelerated level of market expansion hasbeen met with an equally impressive levelof market demand as vacancies have re-mained below historical averages andavailability in most product types remainsomewhat limited. A handful of large-scaledistribution buildings are underway with areasonable share of space pre-leased. Thecurrent wave of activity will thrust the mar-ket forward with total inventory surpassing100 million square feet in the near term.

Latest Activity

Through the first nine months of 2007,the Las Vegas Valley industrial market ex-panded by more than 4 million square feetwhile vacancy rates remained below 5 per-cent. Market demand continued its positivecourse, yet is off the feverish pace of newsupply. The latest activity results in modest-ly higher vacancies from the low 3.5 per-cent mark reported at the close of 2006.

In addition to the latest activity, over 6 mil-lion square feet of space remains under con-struction throughout the valley. A significantshare of future supply is already pre-leasedand is inclusive of built-to-suit projects forlarge-scale facilities, including International

Product Pricing

Average asking rents in the industrialsector reflect a diversifying mix of proper-ties that includes investor-purchasedfreestanding buildings, increasing officecomponents in large-scale distribution fa-cilities and limited availability. Valley-wideaverage asking lease rates also continuedto fluctuate based on the size and mix ofproperties available. Average asking rateswere $0.82 per square foot per month, upmaterially from the prior year

Rising development costs and a lack ofland suitable for industrial uses (given pric-ing) contributed to the increase. Asking av-erages for the quarter were $0.73 per squarefoot for warehouse-distribution space(blended with office components); manufac-turing space reached $0.95 per square foot;and flex space had the highest lease rates ofall sectors at $1.01 per square foot.

Maintaininga competitive market position within thewestern region will be critical to attractinglarge-scale distribution firms and compli-mentary manufacturers to the Las VegasValley. Should material escalations in pric-ing prevail, Las Vegas may become less de-sirable than other markets, including the In-land Empire, Northern Arizona, SouthernUtah and other surrounding jurisdictions.

Diversification within the market andland availability remains a key element ofcontinued strength in the industrial market.While the leisure and hospitality sector hasreported below-average expansion, it isworth noting the market is on the leadingedge of the largest building boom in LasVegas history. Those impacts will likely rip-ple throughout all major sectors of the LasVegas economy; the industrial market willultimately be a likely beneficiary.

ox Business Services (CBS), the business-to-businessdivision of Cox Communications, is a leading provider ofadvanced video, voice and data services to the Southern

Nevada business community. Cox Communications is a Fortune500 company, as well as the third largest cable broadband com-munications provider in the nation. And while CBS is national inscope and on track to reach$1 billion in revenue by2010, the B2B division is alsovery much a local companymeeting local needs.

“In Southern Nevada, Coxprovides high-paying jobs tomore than 1,200 employees of which nearly 200 belong toCBS,” said David Blau, vice president and general manager ofthe company’s Henderson-based regional operations. “They alllive and work here, and that’s good for the local economy. That’sone of our key differentiators. We’re local; many others are not.When you call us for support, you speak to a SouthernNevadan.”

One of the key competitive advantages at CBS is the ability to

bundle its products, a concept Cox introduced into the market-place 10 years ago with virtually every telecom provider nowimitating the practice. By bundling multiple products, CBS pro-vides services that may otherwise prove more expensive whenpurchased separately from individual providers.

“It just makes more sense to get all telecom needs from oneprovider,” noted Blau. “Youget multiple services fromone company on one billand deal with only one ac-count representative. Plus,you get 24/7 technical sup-port from trained profes-

sionals. There are the savings you’ll achieve by getting all your tele-com needs in one package from CBS.”

The popularity of bundling can be seen by the numbers: inCox’s legacy voice markets, over 55 percent of new data cus-tomers also subscribe to Cox Digital Telephone. With marketshare on the rise, bundle packages that achieve savings as wellas J.D. Power and Associates awards for customer satisfaction,CBS is the leading provider of communications solutions.

Members meet and network through avariety of activities including monthlybreakfast meetings, educational seminars,golf tournaments, mixers, award cere-monies, bus tours, and involvement withthe various committees.

As one of the largest and most activechapters in the country, one might assume afull time staff is behind NAIOP’s efforts; thatis not the case. While the chapter utilizes Al-ternative Management to handle its execu-tive functions and other consultants to helpcoordinate its communications and govern-mental affairs initiatives, the membership isresponsible for most the activities.

“The most remarkable thing about NAIOPis that it is a volunteer-driven organization,”said Dazzio. “Our membership and commit-tee chairs dedicate their own time for thegood of our industry and organization.”

ith all of the activities andevents hosted by NAIOP, theSponsorship Committee has

a vital role in the success of the chap-ter. Led by Chair Mike Carroll, the teamraises money each year to fundNAIOP’s numerous events, programsand tournaments.

The chapter’s main sponsorshipsource is its President’s Circle Sponsor-ship program. President’s Circle Spon-sors make up the majority of the oper-ating budget NAIOP uses throughoutthe year. The highest sponsorship levelsinclude free ads in NAIOP NOW and po-sitioning as the presenting sponsor ofthe chapter’s signature events such asSpotlight Awards, Bus Tour and the GolfTournaments.

The chapter attributes its most recent andaggressive community outreach to Jones,who passed away in December.

“Our dear friend, Casey Jones, inspiredour organization to make a difference inour community,” said Tony Dazzio, chapterpresident. “We are thrilled to finally have away to commemorate his contribution.Now, every time our chapter gives time,money or resources to a non-profit organi-zation, we will do so in his name. His lega-cy will continue for years to come.”

NAIOP is currently working with twolocal non-profit organizations. The first isCommunity in Schools, an organizationthat supports low-income children andfamilies through the school setting. Re-cently, NAIOP donated $10,000 to Com-munities in Schools for furniture for itsCynthia Cunningham Elementary Schoolhealth clinic. The health care facility isbeing built for low-income and homelesschildren attending the school who maynot otherwise have access to importantmedical and dental services.

NAIOP has also assisted Helping Handsof Vegas Valley, an organization that offersa bag of free groceries once a week to low-income seniors, as well as respite cares forhospice workers and transportation for se-niors who are unable to drive. Most re-cently, the chapter held a mid-year fooddrive where more than $5,000 was raisedand 50 cases of food were collected.

“Giving back to the community we serveis very important to our chapter,” said Bar-bara Demaree, chair of NAIOP’s Communi-ty Service Committee. “Every year, I amsimply overwhelmed with joy by the gen-erous contributions. Casey Jones was sodedicated to people in need and it is trulyan honor to help carry on his legacy.”

hile the organization is wellknown for its networking and ed-ucational opportunities, its main

focus has always been on government af-fairs. The chapter was formed in 1986 by agroup of developers who wanted to create aunified voice to represent their interests inthe community and with legislators.

“The fundamental purpose of NAIOP is torepresent the industry’s interests and inter-act with government at every level,” saidMichael Newman, past president of thechapter and former chair of the governmentaffairs committee.

In 1990, the chapter formed its Govern-ment Affairs Committee. The purpose of thecommittee was to create an entity thatcould serve as the liaison between theNAIOP membership and state and localmunicipalities. Membership was com-prised of people who had an interest in im-proving the legislative and regularity cli-mate for the chapter.

“The committee has been a very effec-tive group for NAIOP members,” said TonyDazzio, chapter president and past chair ofthe Government Affairs Committee. “Everyyear it has grown and become stronger.”

NAIOP representatives regularly meetwith politicians at all levels to providethem with input on important issues tocommercial development. NAIOP pro-vides written position papers and briefson the general principles and philoso-phies of NAIOP.

“We have relationships with many of ourleaders in government,” Dazzio said.

“Many of our accomplishments revolvearound relationships. Translating those rela-tionships into a value for members and rep-resenting the interests of our members atthe very highest levels of government is ourfocus. We don’t stand on sidelines with ourhands on our hips demanding action. Weprefer to act as a resource. They can call usup and ask for assistance and we will be

happy to provide guidance on any issue thathas an impact on our community.”

In 2006, the chapter divided its govern-ment efforts into two categories. It hiredMcDonald Carano Wilson to represent itsinterest at the state level and continued itsrelations with Strategic Solutions at thelocal level. Members of the committee metwith all the legislative leadership, includingthe senate majority leader, the speaker ofthe assembly and all legislative committeechairmen in both houses.

Under the leadership of then chapterPresident Ralph Murphy, the GovernmentAffairs Committee developed a public af-fairs position paper that formally docu-ments the most important issues affectingNAIOP members and the commercial realestate industry. The paper details positionson taxation and construction law at thestate level, and on permit processing time,fees for development approvals and avail-ability of land for future development at thelocal level.

“Together with our lobbyist groups, wemonitor a variety of issues ranging from im-minent domain, impact fees, constructionlaw, land use and growth managements,and tax related issues,” Dazzio said. “Wework to ensure our members’ interests arerepresented.”

In 1994, the committee reached anothermilestone when it formed the CommercialReal Estate Political Action Committee(CREPAC). The purpose of CREPAC was toenhance the publics and public officials un-derstanding of the importance of commer-cial real estate development through dona-tions made to candidates.

“Our association is now recognized asthe voice of commercial real estate devel-opment in Southern Nevada and our voiceis getting stronger,” said Murphy currentchair of the Governmental Affairs Commit-tee. “As a result, we are able to offergreater service to our members, be moreresponsive to the needs of our community,and enhance our influence with federal,state and local elected representatives.”

“We work to ensure our members’ interests

are represented.”

ver the last 50 years, the Stoltz Management Compa-ny has evolved from a small, regional family real es-tate service and investment business into a leading

national real estate/investor/operator and trusted fiduciary.Through three generations, Stoltz has successfully diversified itscapabilities, garnered comprehensive industry expertise, andchampioned exceptional service and operational excellence.

In Nevada, Stoltz Management Company acquired the Hugh-es Airport Center and Hughes Cheyenne Center in 2000 totalingmore than 2.3 million square feet of office, office/warehouseand flex office buildings. Over the years, Stoltz sold smallparcels in the parks. In 2005 and 2006, the company complet-ed the development of two build-to-suit facilities for gaming in-dustry manufacturers, Konami and WMS Gaming, which totaledmore than 250,000 square feet. In 2007, Stoltz sold the remain-ing buildings owned and retained four development parcels,along Sunset Road at Hughes Airport Center. A new 180,000Class A office building broke ground in June, 2007 with occu-pancy by May, 2008. Another 90,000 square feet of new spaceis being planned for the remaining two undeveloped parcels forthe end of the 2010.

The two Stoltz owned buildings in Hughes Cheyenne Centertotaling 220,000 square feet located in North Las Vegas weresold in the last round of dispositions and what remains are twoparcels for Stoltz developments. A small 4 acre corner parcel atCheyenne and MLK is being developed as a shopping center an-chored by TESCO’s Fresh and Easy food store. Preliminary de-velopment studies are under way on the second parcel, a 40-acre site on Cheyenne between Coleman and Clayton Roads.

ne of the key benefits of join-ing NAIOP is the opportunity tolearn more about the commer-

cial real estate industry. The EducationCommittee develops informative semi-nars and workshops aimed at enhancingmembers’ knowledge of the industry andcurrent trends.

Kyle Nagy, chair of the Education Com-

mittee and member of the board of direc-tors, said the committee works hard tooffer members a variety of workshops tochoose from.

“We know that each of our memberswant information about topics that impacttheir business,” Nagy said. “We look for op-portunities to provide this information in away where everyone walks away with

knowledge they did not have when theycame in.”

Last year, the committee introduced aseries of four permit processing workshopsto guide members through the necessaryprotocol for commercial development in thefour Las Vegas Valley municipalities. Eachworkshop was presented by representa-tives of the respective municipalities, so at-

tendees learned the correct way to processcommercial developments from the deci-sion makers themselves.

“Learning to navigate the municipalities,from concept through building, was a hugesuccess,” Nagy said. “We brought togetherthe developers and representatives fromthe public sector to have an open conversa-tion and discussion on how to make thingsrun smoothly for both parties.”

Over the years, NAIOP has teamed withother professional organizations to hostseminars. NAIOP joined the AssociatedGeneral Contractors Las Vegas Chapter toeducate members about the impact risingcosts of land, labor and materials on the in-dustry. It partnered with the local chapter ofthe U.S. Green Building Council to exploregreen building. The discussion includeddefining the elements of green building,Leadership in Energy and EnvironmentalDesign (LEED) certification and sustainabledevelopment.

In addition to educating its current mem-bers, NAIOP is also committed to assistingthe next generation of industry leaders. In1993, the chapter established a scholarshipendowment with the UNLV Foundation andhas worked closely with the university eversince. Each year, NAIOP awards a scholar-ship to one student enrolled in the Lied In-stitute for Real Estate Studies program. TheEducation Committee also oversees thementor program. The program matches realestate students with NAIOP members whomeet regularly throughout the semester.“Our Education Committee does a great

service to the membership and providesvalue to members,” said Tony Dazzio, pres-ident of the Southern Nevada Chapter.“Where else can you learn about how tosubmit plans, request approvals and qualifyfor assistance from the direct source?”

“Learning to navigate

the municipalities,

from concept through

building, was a

huge success.”

n 2006, NAIOP formed its newestcommittee led by Pamela Vilkinwho is also the president of the

local chapter of the US Green BuildingCouncil. The Sustainable DevelopmentCommittee’s main focus is to educate themembership about the benefits of greenbuilding and responsible development.

“Sustainable Development is an issuethat’s time has come,” said Tony Dazzio,chapter president. “It is critically importantto the community at large and the industryspecifically.”

Las Vegas has more than 25 buildingsregistered for Leadership in Energy and En-vironmental Design (LEED) and three ofthose have received the designation. Sev-eral categories are judged to be certified in-cluding the site, water efficiency, energy ef-ficiency, material and design.

The committee is already making an im-pact on the organization. It has identifiedfour main goals including identifying andunderstanding criteria for LEED BuildingCertification, promoting the use of bestpractices among NAIOP members, gather-ing and monitoring information regardingsustainable development, and attendingkey conferences and educational eventsabout sustainable development.

The Sustainable Development Committeehas studied samples of environmentally-friendly construction materials, such aswall coverings and durable flooring prod-ucts. Research is available on the chapter’sWeb site to provide members with a simplesource for sustainable resources. The Sus-tainable Development Committee coordi-nated Education Committee to present “TheGreening of Nevada,” an educational semi-nar that was the first opportunity for thenew committee to inform the membershipabout their growing scope of activities.

Other topics of interest are the incentiveprograms being offered by local utility companies. During a recent meeting,the group learned of trends in the construc-tion recycling industry and will soon make apresentation on the building commissioningprocess.

Industry Trends CommitteeKeeping Members Up To Speed

eeping abreast of industrytrends is critical for NAIOPmembers. Three years ago,

NAIOP established a committee to identi-fy and monitor industry trends that im-pact the commercial real estate industry.It is this committee’s responsibility to ed-ucate members and leadership about theeffects these trends may have on the in-dustry and the community as a whole.Rick Myers, past president of NAIOP, es-tablished the Industry Trends Committeeand serves as its chair.

When the committee was formed,the initial topic was the emergence ofgreen buildings and Leadership in Ener-gy and Environmental Design (LEED) cer-tification. The committee followed thetrend and identified the people whocould educate the membership about im-pact. It worked closely with the Educa-

tion and Program Committees to sched-ule seminars and meetings to discussthe topic. The chapter’s leadership iden-tified this trend as a growing issue in thevalley. To further educate and assistmembers, it formed the Sustainable De-velopment Committee.

“This example is exactly what thegroup is trying to accomplish – identify-ing new trends and mobilizing the mem-bership,” said Myers.

Of current concern, is the lack ofavailable land for commercial develop-ment in the Valley. This is specifically anissue with the majority of NAIOP’s indus-trial development members. As housingdemand has increased in recent years,much of the land suitable for warehousedevelopment and distribution buildingswas rezoned and purchased by homebuilders, creating a concern that the dis-

tribution facilities needed to support arapidly growing economy, would becomefar more difficult to develop.

NAIOP worked closely with local andnational elected officials to bring thisissue to the forefront and develop solu-tions to the emerging problem.

Members have been researchingthe diminishing supply of industrialland caused by BLM policies, escalat-ing land costs, rezoning to residentialuse and other factors and educatingelected officials. The group is planningto commission a study to evaluate fu-ture alternatives.

“We feel it is our responsibility as achapter to stay ahead of these trends,”chapter President Tony Dazzio said.“The committee continues to be for-ward-thinkers, presenting the mostpressing emerging trends to members.”

rudential-IPG CRES expects tosell out by year’s end at itsShea at Tenaya Village office

park -– thanks to high demand in its un-derserved section of North Las Vegas.

The $21 million, 100,000-square-footoffice project fills a void in the area,which offers few alternatives for miles,says Miriam Campos-Root, vice presi-dent of Prudential-IPG CRES.

Located on a 10-acre parcel frontingAzure Way, construction on the sevenbuilding complex is nearing completion.“The final two buildings are currentlyunder construction and to date the com-plex is about 75 percent sold,” Campos-Root said.

With the market returning to normalafter a red hot pace, the sales rate forShea at Tenaya Village remains brisk.Campos-Root predicted all unit saleswould close by the end of 2007, twoyears after its marketing of the projectbegan.

Prudential-IPG CRES had the client inmind during the planning process. Theydecided not to build the units to suit,opting rather to let buyers call the shotson the interior, Campos-Root noted.

Included in each gray shell is the con-crete slab, utility connections and firesprinklers. The buildings feature modernarchitecture with stucco and stone fa-cades, as well as abundant signage andparking.

Among the project’s favorable attrib-utes is its close proximity and exception-al visibility to US 95 and I-215 Beltway.Besides professional office interests, italso has carved out another niche. “Thisproject has been popular with medicalusers because of the proximity to thenew Centennial Hills Hospital,” Campos-Root said.

The project offers a complimentarymix of tenants such as a chiropractic of-fice, internal medicine, real estateagency, insurance company, an ortho-dontist and dentistry practices.

There is still availability in this much-needed office park in the Northwest areaof town. Currently, the project is selling

at about $230 to $250 per square foot.There are two remaining units in theone-story buildings, sized at 2,012 and3,089 square feet. The project’s remain-ing two-story building, sized at 28,202square feet can be subdivided into units,as small as 4,000 square feet.

Communications CommitteeResource of Information for Members

or an organization the size ofNAIOP, communicating withmembers is extremely important.

The chapter’s Communications Commit-tee’s primary focus is to let members knowwhat is happening both inside and outside

the group. NAIOP keeps members informedwith a number of communication forumsincluding its Web site, its newsletter, NAIOPNOW, and through the media.

The chapter’s Web site is a usefultool in communicating with members.

The site includes links to news, events,memberships, sponsorships, committeesand other resources. Soon, it will offer in-teractive registration where memberscan sign-up for events and programs di-rectly on the site. Broader in scope thanthe magazine, the web site offers mem-bers a quick way to contact key membersof the organization, as well as an oppor-tunity to learn more about what is goingon within the organization.

NAIOP NOW is the chapter’s quarter-ly newsletter. The publication has grownin size from a black and white newsletterto a 50 page glossy magazine. The publi-cation provides recaps of the chapter’sactivities, informs members about up-coming events, profiles members andtheir companies and educates memberson trends in the industry. In addition tothe editorial content, the chapter alsosells ads to members allowing them toget in front of other members who mayutilize their services or products.

“Our focus is to keep members in-formed about what the organization andfellow members are doing, making it easierfor member-to-member interaction and fordoing business with one another,” saidCommunications Committee chair KarenMarshall. “In the back of the newsletter wehave a section called ‘Newsbites.’ This sec-tion gives members the opportunity to getthe word out about their projects, newhires, deals, etc. to other members.”

Another way NAIOP communicateswith members and the community isthrough the media. Members of the Com-munications Committee work closely withMassMedia, the organization’s communi-cations agency, to promote the chapter’sactivities and initiatives to the local press.

“We invite the media to every eventwe have,” said Tony Dazzio, president ofthe chapter. “We think it’s important tohave a relationship with the reporters andeditors who cover our industry. I think weserve as a great resource for them whenthey are writing articles about commer-cial real estate.”

mercial, industrial, retail and office spaces, aswell as other developments. The tour givesmembers the opportunity to visit projects de-veloped by their peers. The Bus Tour is one ofNAIOP’s most popular events, with more than420 members boarding buses for a sightsee-ing tour around the Valley. The tour is meantto educate members on the development ac-tivities throughout the Las Vegas Valley. In ad-dition to the educational component, the BusTour also gives attendees the chance to net-work with developers and associate mem-bers who reserve booths at the exhibit fair.

The 19th Annual Bus Tour theme is the“Amazing Bus Tour,” with thematic similari-ties to CBS’s hit show. Attendees of the tourwill be competing against each other, addingan element of fun, competition and interactiv-ity. At each stop, along with learning detailedinformation about the property, games will beplayed and teams will rally behind their rep-resentatives to obtain clues that will helpthem win the tour. As usual, the tour will cul-minate with a cocktail party, held this year atthe All American Sports Park on Sunset Road,just south of McCarran International Airport.

“The Bus Tour offers obvious benefits tomembers who wish to learn more about thedevelopments and building trends occurringthroughout the Valley,” said Chris Larsen, BusTour Committee Chair. “It also offers valuablenetworking opportunities through our exhibitbooths and cocktail party.”

ecoming the fourth largest chapterin the nation didn’t happen by acci-dent. The Membership Committee

of the Southern Nevada chapter was estab-lished to bolster the organization’s ranks anddevelop strategies to monitor growth andmember involvement. Each year, the Member-ship Committee sets a goal to attract potentialmembers, educate new members and providevalue to current members. To that end, thecommittee coordinates a variety of activitiesthroughout the year.

Attracting new members to the organizationis one of the main focuses for this committee.The organization continues its outreach to en-courage principal members, or developers,and associate members, industry profession-als who provide services to developers, to thechapter. Equally important is an increased em-phasis on attracting a younger generation tothe organization. The chapter has embracedthe national organization’s “Developing Lead-ers” program and host mixers for youngermembers. To entice these groups as well asothers, the Membership Committee uses sev-eral outreach methods.

“We have two call-a-thons per year tar-geting people who have come to breakfastmeetings and didn’t join, or companies whohave one representative who is already amember and we encourage others in firm tojoin,” said Bill Wilson, chair of the Member-ship Committee.

As the organization grows, the Member-ship Committee recognizes the need tohelp new members discover the benefits oftheir membership.

In 2007, the committee began hosting“New Member Orientation Workshops” toeducate members about the organizationand its outreach. More than 20 people at-tended the first workshop.
