RE: 2012 ICSC Las Vegas RECON Conference Update
Memo
This memo is to update the EDA on the ICSC RECON conference in Las Vegas, May 20 - 23,
2012. Early registration lowers our costs. Appointments are made in the Spring of 2012.
Attending the Conference
Attending the 2011 conference was Mayor Myron Bailey, City Council Member Justin Olsen,
City Administrator, Ryan Schroeder and EDA Member Paul Poncin.
We propose the 2012 conference should be attended by City Staff (Ryan and Danette and
EDA members).
Appointments
In 2011 we had 29 scheduled meetings and made additional contacts out there.

approximately 1.5 miles from Bally's. The convention center was accessible by Mono
Rail, Taxi and shuttle.
