Almost the entire state of Nevada is a freakin military controlled zone.  Nuclear waste disposal from Yucca Mountain, weapons testing or training or some other crap.  LV is pretty much an extension of Southern CA, and should be annexed as such... Sorry if i don't have studies...but if you have access to lexis-nexis..you should use it....or Jstor, or Proquest  (available at your local junior college library)

From reading your question, sounds like you've had very little exposure to life in a big city.  Perhaps you're from a quite, smaller town where the quality of life is much higher.  The reality is that you will find more people like that in larger cities, not just Las Vegas.  I've been to all the major cities in the USA and see very similar people on the street.  It's just the way it is, unfortunately.  \n\nI hope after seeing this, it will help you appreciate what you have. :)

I cannot find anything but I am sure a quick call to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development can tell you. Better to know for sure regardless.

There are many websites that could help you with this answer - I would first try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_planning and the website for the APA at http://www.planning.org/ to help you get your answers.\n\nGood Luck!!!

Contact the city of Durango Co, ask about public land such as BLM land(bureau of land management). I also found out that there are a lot of SWA(state wildlife areas)in the area.Call the national forest service, and also I know people dont like hunters but the CDOW( Colorado dept of wildlife)has cool stuff on their web site such as watchable wildlife info and also info on public land. Have fun be safe

Have you checked this planning office site?\n\nNote the declaimer. These are not the "offical" copies and maybe out of date.\n\nhttp://www.co.bonner.id.us/planning/landuse.html

I'm not familiar with that area, but I would search the web for your local Land Trusts, Greenbelt Alliance rep, Nature Conservatory, Audubon, or public Open Space District, and then pick their brains and get more referrals from them.  There are often preserved open spaces that are not publicized due to limitations in budgets for providing public access.  Some properties have public outings for scheduled access, others allow public access after docent or permit trainings, and some have all-access trails.  Good luck!

If you are looking for information on homes available in new subdivisions/developments, I have video tours and information on my website at \nhttp://newhomes.azhomebuyerhelp.com be sure to scroll down on the page. \n\nIf you are looking for the master plan of a specific community, you might try a city or municipality site or contact a REALTOR who often has information on upcoming subdivisions.
