The Las Vegas Senior Citizens Advisory Board on Dec. 4 approved the Nov. 6 meeting minutes and received updates from ward representatives about scams, safety programs and community events.
Caroline Moseein (Ward 6) moved to accept the Nov. 6, 2025 minutes as presented; the chair called the vote and an affirmative voice vote was recorded. Quorum had been declared earlier in the meeting.
Ward reports that followed covered neighborhood outreach, food-distribution events and safety topics. Vice Chair Nicole Graham (Ward 1) highlighted 3 Square senior food outreach events in December and an on-site neighborhood services outreach at Lumina planned for January from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. David Tilzer (Ward 4) described older-driver safety awareness programs and warned attendees about increasing Medicare and Medicaid phantom-billing scams, urging seniors to check monthly explanation-of-benefit statements.
Tilzer also provided a national Health and Human Services fraud hotline number for members struggling to reach Medicare or Medicaid help lines; the number was read in the meeting as +1 804478477. Board members and the chair encouraged people to report suspicious charges to insurers and to provide documentation to the Advocacy Rights Attorney’s office when appropriate.
Ward representatives also promoted community events: a Tamales and Mariachi Festival on Dec. 6 at the Las Vegas Civic Center (10 a.m.–4 p.m.), and a cowboy-Christmas/classic-car show at Floyd Lamb Park. Chair O'Rear Cameron reminded attendees that the meeting recording will be posted on the city’s YouTube channel and encouraged sign-up for ward and city senior newsletters.
The board discussed future meeting topics and had no further scheduled additions; the chair adjourned the meeting and announced the next meeting for Jan. 2 at 1 p.m. in the Civic Center Building (second Thursday scheduling noted due to the holiday).
