KCLV Channel 2, the city of Las Vegas’ government access television station, will air a special edition of Las Vegas Town Hall from 5 to 6 p.m. on Tuesday, July 20. The live show, which is hosted by Las Vegas Mayor Oscar B. Goodman and City Manager Betsy Fretwell, will focus on employment issues residents are facing and provide some insight into landing a job. Guests include Raj Tumber, a counselor from the Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE), which provides advice to small businesses; Andy Katz, president of Manpower; and economist Jeremy Aguero from Applied Analysis. The guests will discuss information including fields that are likely to be the first to start rehiring, steps to take to start a business, and the tools citizens need to help them land a job. They will also take calls from the public. Residents interested in speaking with the panelists can call into the program at 229-5320.
Business owners and managers in the process of looking for workers are also encouraged to call into the live show to talk about their job openings.
It was decided to air a special edition of Las Vegas Town Hall after the last regularly scheduled program had several callers looking for work. Goodman and Fretwell want to have the city offer guidance to help residents return to the job market.
Las Vegas Town Hall will air live at 5 p.m. and be rebroadcast several times, including at noon on Thursday, July 22; at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 23; at 7 a.m. on Saturday, July 24; and at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, July 27. There will be additional future airings, and for a full schedule visit the city’s website at www.kclv.tv .
