  Mr. PORTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor my good friend Tim 
Snow for his long and distinguished career at Thomas & Mack Development 
Group.
  Tim began his work with the Thomas & Mack Development Group in 
California during the mid-1980s and soon after moved to Las Vegas where 
he was instrumental in implementing extensive land development 
projects. Tim is responsible for developing a 100-acre area of land 
near McCarren International Airport into the McCarren Center. Today, 
the McCarren Center is comprised of 30 buildings and nearly 2 million 
square feet of office and light industrial space.
  During his tenure at Thomas & Mack Development, Mr. Snow also 
developed a 20-acre ranch which today stands as the headquarters for 
Harrah's Entertainment. While with the Thomas & Mack Development Group, 
Mr. Snow oversaw the development of the Blue Diamond Ranches, the 
Eastgate Plaza, and the Nevada Financial Center. Mr. Snow also shares 
an ownership position in the important 100-acre Northern Beltway 
Industrial Center. Throughout his long and illustrious career with the 
Thomas & Mack Development Group, Tim has guided the expansion of the 
Las Vegas Valley and his vision has led to the development of a mature 
business and thriving community.
  Madam Speaker, I am proud to honor my good friend Tim Snow. His 
dedication to the Las Vegas community is commendable and I applaud his 
distinguished record of success. I wish him the best in his retirement.
