Under Date of October 3, 1945, the City of Las Vegas sent to Senator McCarran a telegram authorizing him to inform the Army Air Corps that the City of Las Vegas was willing to deliver to the Army Air Corps, McCarran Field, the property of the City of Las Vegas, provided the Army Air Corps would retain McCarran Field and maintain it. The City of Las Vegas is still willing and ready to deliver McCarran Airport to the Army Air Corps when the people of Clark County can comply with the Army's request under date of April 1, 1946, in which they agree to accept McCarran Airport if and when a new commercial airport is erected in Las Vegas or Clark County, Nevada, for the use of the commercial airlines. On Monday, July 1, 1946 an informal meeting was held with the County Commissioners, the City Commissioners, the Chamber of Commerce committee, CAA officials, airline officials, and the general public, and at said meeting the following resolution was presented and adopted: Resolution "RESOLVED, that the proposition of the new airport for the City of Las Vegas, and the County of Clark be submitted to the electors of Clark County through a bond issue prepared by the County Commissioners, and that a committee be appointed from among those present at this meeting by the City and County Commissioners to work with these respective Commissioners to assist them to find ways and means whereby the Bonds may be sold and retired. And be it FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Commissioners immediately make application to the proper Federal Governmental Agency for the Federal portion of fund necessary to acquire and improve the proposed airport, and that said County Commissioners also immediately notify the Army Air Forces of these steps by copy of this resolution." The City Commissioners in compliance with the requests contained in this resolution do hereby appoint Mr. A. C. Grant, Colonel Faye and Mr. Al Riddle to act with them and for them and with a committee appointed by the County Commissioners as requested in this resolution, and we request the County Commissioners to immediately appoint a committee as per this resolution and the City be notified of the Committee so appointed. It is the request of the City of Las Vegas by and through its Commissioners that the County Commissioners act at once to comply with this resolution and the City Commissioners will cooperate with the County Commissioners in bringing this matter to an immediate conclusion.
