Developers Make Sustainable Communities and Housing Supply Happen

Innovation in urban development is key these days. Economic vitality, climate adaptation, equitable community benefits, and adequate housing supply all require sensitive and creative urban design and community planning by progressive development companies. Ascent works with forward-thinking developers and engaged local jurisdictions to help achieve community sustainability, resource stewardship, and economic development objectives.

NV Energy’s electrical service area includes the community of Mt. Charleston in Kyle Canyon, approximately 35 miles west-northwest of Las Vegas on National Forest System land managed by the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, Spring Mountains National Recreation Area.
