People. Housing. Neighborhood.

Goals and Objectives

CNI focuses on three main objectives: Housing. People. Neighborhood.

‍

People: Provide wrap-around support for current families to increase access to healthcare, improve educational outcomes, and encourage intergenerational mobility to ensure families thrive.

‍

Housing:  Replace distressed public and assisted housing with high-quality, mixed-income housing that is well-managed and responsive to the neighborhood's needs. Marble Manor residents in good standing have the choice to return to a revitalized home if they wish to move back into the newly constructed housing development. Their assigned trained relocation specialists will guide them through the entire process. The Choice Neighborhood team is actively leading the effort to provide support and counsel to Marble Manor residents.

‍Neighborhood: Create the conditions necessary for public and private reinvestment in distressed communities by offering amenities and assets that are helpful to families choices, such as safety, high-performing schools, and commercial activity. SNRHA is working with the city of Las Vegas and surrounding community partners to align with current developments that promote economic growth and an emerging quality of life.

SNRHA grant partners:
‍

• Housing Partner: Brinshore Development
• People Partners: Lutheran Social Services of Southern Nevada & ‍Revival Development Services‍
• Neighborhood Partner: City of Las Vegas‍
  

The redevelopment of Marble Manor will take place in five phases over the next eight years. Throughout this process, current residents will receive comprehensive support from our community partners, Lutheran Social Services of Southern Nevada (LSSN), and our relocation specialists, Revival Development Services.

‍

These partners will help ensure that residents have the assistance they need every step of the way.

‍

The Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI) provides extensive support for residents who need to relocate as part of the redevelopment of Marble Manor, as long as they are in good standing with their lease.

Here is how the support works:

‍

1. Relocation Assistance: Every household will receive help finding a new home and moving at no cost.
2. Housing Vouchers: Some households may qualify for a housing voucher, allowing them to keep paying the same rent as before, as long as their income has not changed.
3. Priority for New Housing: Residents who are in compliance with their lease and any agreements with SNRHA will have the option to move into one of the new homes once they are ready.

They will be among the first to return to the redeveloped community if they choose to.

‍

The table below outlines the relocation schedule, demolition, construction timeline, and the number and size of new units. There will be a one-to-one replacement of units for current residents, meaning that for every existing unit, a new unit will be built. Of the new units, only 22% will have no rent restrictions.

‍

The rest of the units are designated to the SNRHA voucher program. This approach guarantees that the redeveloped community stays affordable for current residents and working families, preventing displacement while improving the overall quality.
