Their standard maximum response time to a call for assistance from anywhere in the city, 3 mins! Although small in size, they are large in stature, providing Big City Protection to our citizens 24/7/365! Fortunately for me, I've never had to call BCPD to respond to an emergency. But their remarkable on-scene availability coupled with their professionalism let's me rest assured that, if needed, they are but a few short minutes away! The fact Boulder City has one of the nation's lowest crime rates is directly attributable to our Police! Next time you see one of our officers, please thank them for their service--maintaining the peace and safety they provide.

In my eyes Boulder City is the Magic Kingdom of Nevada. Where Disney Land's mascot is a mouse, Boulder City's is a big horn sheep. This review talks about the different lands that are the components of the Magic Kingdom of Nevada that is Boulder City (abbreviated BC). Main Street USA BC features a central business district that was built with the principles of town planning. It features two Main Streets: Nevada Way & Arizona Street. When the founders built the town in the 30's, it was designed so residents would not want to leave to drink & gamble. In similar fashion to good town planning, there is abundant greenery. If you picture Washington D.C.; Boulder City Square & Wilbur Square are the Mall. The Bureau of Reclamation Building, sitting on a hill would be the Capitol. There is so much to see & do. This includes Coffee Cup, Boulder Bowl, antique shops, Boulder Theater, & the Historic Boulder Dam Hotel. Events are held throughout the year. Adventure Land BC is a land of adventure. Bootleg Canyon is world known for the highly acclaimed bike trails. From high above Bootleg Canyon, a popular adventure is ziplining down Red Mountain. For the hard core adventurists, Gold Strike Canyon is a place to play Indiana Jones while you climb ropes and slide down death slides on the way to the Colorado River. My favorite adventure is to hike up Red & Black Mountain to see awesome views of Vegas, Lake Mead, & Boulder City. Lake Mead National Recreation Area offers infinite adventures. Boulder City Stone Circle offers adventures for astronomers. In 2005 Pluto was observed from this spot. And If your a golfer, the three golf courses offer adventures in golf. Frontier Land What a dam frontier BC is. In the 30's it was the hub for building Hoover Dam. With the electricity generation Hoover Dam accelerated the settlement of the southwest. The Historic Southern Nevada Railroad played a major role. Today people could ride in a Historic Nevada Railroad train on weekends in addition to experiencing the Southern Nevada Railroad Museum. Recently when the Memorial Bridge opened, it expanded the Las Vegas frontier into northern Arizona. There is discussion of major developments being built along US 93. At a higher elevation from Hoover Dam, the Frontier Land landmark would be Red & Black Mountain. Instead of a railroad, it is a hiking trail. Fantasy Land When I drive US 93 into BC, I am on the Journey to Imagination. BC is a place where fantasy comes true. It is a Fantasy Land where the dream of walking through 5 tunnels to one of the Wonders of the World comes true. It is a Fantasy Land where the pixie dust of the Hoover Dam created an inland sea known as Lake Mead. On this sea recreationists could ride in water craft or enjoy a boat tour. It is a Fantasy Land where the dream of sharing a picnic with big horn sheep comes true. And it is a fantasy land where people could share solitary moments in a valley with teddy bear cholla. At night I have lived my fantasies of walking on a dark River Mountains Loop Trail under the stars without the fear of getting jumped. It is a fantasy come true that brings me to Boulder City for night walks. Tomorrow Land BC is the city of tomorrow. It is a city designed with progressive zoning. The City Code of BC limits development to 120 single or multi-family residential permits per year. Voter approval is mandatory for the approval of city land an acre or more. It is a Tomorrow Land where power centers and sprawl are not in the horizon. BC is a Tomorrow Land that will include the Bypass of the Future I-11. It is a Tomorrow Land where people will be closer to nature than to space. At 202.7 square miles, BC has sufficient room to grow. Fast Pass to Bypass Line of Traffic In BC, people line up in cars. US 93 is known for its traffic headache. To bypass the gridlock on US 93 and Buchanan Boulevard, Lake Mead and Hoover Dam bound motorists use the fast pass to bypass a line of traffic. Here it is: At the first traffic signal on US 93 at the end of the freeway; turn right on Veterans Memorial Drive. At the traffic signal, turn left on Adams Blvd. At the 4-way stop, turn left on Buchanan Blvd. This ought to bypass the gridlock. Admission Boulder City is a public city. Admission is free. However if you drive a few miles above the speed limit, there will be a steep admission to enter the Magic Kingdom of Nevada. **Review 76 of The Daniel S. Yelp 100 Challenge.**
