I RECEIVED a courtesy violation letter! (This is unmitigated proof that the inspectors have no idea who the homeowners are of a particular home and if they do, it is irrelevant to them.) I felt all the emotions every homeowner feels when they get a violation notice and none of them were good. We have had four large Japanese Waxleaf Privets blocking the sun from shining on the west side of our garage for 12 years. They started to look woody, and the top portion was burnt so we cut them down low to stimulate new growth. The cut back privets exposed the fact that the stucco on that wall had faded and there were four faint dark areas on the stucco where the privets had been blocking the sun. My wife and I didn’t notice it. Probably because we were used to seeing four dark areas on that wall, for many years, that were the much taller privets. I followed step 2 in the below instructions, and we had our stucco painted within three weeks of the date of the courtesy notice. This situation gave me the idea to use my article to explain to homeowners what they can do to avoid fines, receive a precollection letter or being sent to collections:

2. If a homeowner receives a courtesy violation letter, the best way to avoid fines being levied, is to respond to the letter. The second page of the letter is the Homeowner Response Form. Homeowners can respond: Has been resolved as of __/ __/ __ (The date will be noted, and the inspector will confirm this has been resolved during the next inspection. A picture needs to be included as proof.) Will be resolved on or before __/ __/ __ (This gives a homeowner more time if needed.) Architectural Application submitted on __/ __/ __ (Only when an ARC should have been Requestsubmitted.)anextension of ____ days (This gives a homeowner more time if needed.) ___ Request a Hearing before the Board of Directors or its duly appointed designee. (if you believe you have unjustly received a violation.) The homeowner response form should always be completed and returned via the fax number, email address or mailing address listed on the form.

We agree that having vehicles such as these in your community or any community is not only against the rules but can be an eyesore. The Asso ciation would love to be able to remove these vehicles but are bound by laws that prevent them from towing vehicles from public streets, even if they do not comply with the rules and regulations. The city however, through Code Enforcement, can make the decision to have a vehicle removed by means of towing at the owner’s expense. We understand the frustration and wish all homeowners were diligent in abiding by the CC&R’s as you many of you are.
• Exterior paint - Paint is a quick and easy way to keep your property looking fresh, new and clean. It will also protect against corrosion, weathering and insects. Don’t forget to paint shutters and fas cia when needed.

Compliance Committee
Upcoming Board Meetings
Do you feel this way when you receive a viola tion notice in the mail? Management sends out violation letters to all homeowners on behalf of the Board of Directors when a violation of the Governing Documents has been found. Unfortu nately sending letters does not always result in compliance. Per the adopted Compliance Policy, if a violation exists after the first notice and hearing notices are sent, the deeded homeowners may receive fines of up to $100 per week until cor rected. “Why can’t I park my work truck at my own house?”
“How come you’re not getting rid of all these commercial vehicles parked in our community?”
• Driveways and parking - Please repair cracks, pitted or flaking surfaces, stains and other concrete problems. Commercial vehicles must be parked wholly within the garage or outside of the commu nity. All vehicles must be registered and operable when parked in view.
• Trash cans - Trash cans must be placed out and removed within 12 hours of collection times and must be screened from view.

If the homeowner has not returned the Homeowner Response Form requesting an extension, stating the violation has been resolved or stating a date when the violation will be resolved, and the inspector finds the vio lation has not been resolved by the next inspection, a 1st Notice Violation Letter is sent. The homeowner has a second opportunity to avoid fines by following step 2 above. If the inspector finds the violation has not been resolved on his next inspection a Hearing Notice is sent to the homeowner. For a third time a homeowner has an opportunity to follow step 2 above to avoid being fined. If the second page form is not returned before the hearing date and the violation has not been resolved, as determined by a final inspection on the date of the hearing, or the homeowner does not attend the hearing to state their case, then and only then are fines levied.
3. If a homeowner is being fined for an open violation, it is very import ant to notify management, the instant the violation is resolved. Oth erwise, fines will continue to accrue, at $100 per week, until the next inspection which could be four or more weeks after the violation was resolved. This could result in the homeowner being fined $400 to $500 after the violation was resolved!
4. If you are renting your property and using a management company our database has a third address option. Please take advantage of this by making sure we have your address and your property managers’ address in our system so violation notices will be sent to you, the property manager, and the home address. Important decisions at the June, and July Aliante Board Meetings Gothic provided a proposal to replace 21 broken concrete panels along our streets at a cost of $19,845. They prepared another proposal in the amount of $16,200 to replace 7 concrete panels in the landscaped arroyos. The cost per panel is higher than the other 21 because these are not on the street and are harder to access. They also provided a proposal in the amount of $2,500 to replace a large panel on Centennial near Dutch Brothers. This panel was damaged during construction in this area and our Community Manager will try to get the City to reimburse the associa tion for this and other damage caused by the City’s construction. All three proposals were approved.
• The Fields playground slide has been destroyed. The Property and Grounds committee believes the playground equipment is too old to be repaired and would like a new playground unit and safety padding.

Palm Tree Trimming Tools
• An outdoor pole saw (for hard-to-reach spots)
You may need different trimming tools based on the size and species of tree, but in general, you’re going to need:
In general, your safest bet is to check your palm tree species and check its ideal trimming month. Plan to trim your tree during that period. You should also be careful not to overprune your palms. This can actually hurt them, or even kill them. Remember, pruning reduces the amount of foliage available for the plant to absorb sunlight and make food, which means over-pruning starves your tree. Most trees will bounce back with time but always trim with care.
• Chainsaw (for large fronds)
• A helmet (if working with a chainsaw or a large tree)
It’s 10 o’clock!
continued from page 7 through Thursday and 5 a.m. the next morning, and between 12 midnight on Friday and Saturday to 5 a.m. the next morning unless accompa nied by a parent, guardian or other adult having legal care, custody and control over that individual. Exceptions to these curfew rules, of course, exist for those under the age of 18 who are working or engaging in scheduled school activities. It also specifies that it is unlawful for a parent, guardian, or other adult having legal care, custody and control over a minor to allow or permit that minor to loiter, wander or stroll or be upon, in or about any of the public streets, avenues, alleys or other public places in the city during curfew hours, and prescribes possible penalties of up to $300 in fines and/or up to 6 months confinement in the city jail.Because the parks, playgrounds, walking trails, arroyos and streets in and around Aliante are “public places” in the context of Chapter 9.28, parents need to ensure that their children are not out at night in violation of the City of North Las Vegas curfew. To help protect our children and keep our community safe, when you see or hear anyone you suspect is out in violation of the curfew, please call the Securitas Patrol number 702237-4723 or 702-237-4724, so our Security Officers can follow up.
PALMS ARE OFTEN thought of as low main tenance trees; however, most palms require regular pruning to keep them attractive and safe. Many palms maintain a set number of live fronds. A regular tu rnover of foliage occurs as dying lower fronds are replaced by new ones at theThereapex. are several reasons for pruning palms. 1) Removing dead or dying lower fronds improves the appearance of a palm. 2) Dead, dying fronds and loose petioles are weakly attached to some palms and can place people and property a risk should they fall from tall palms. 3) Pruning can remove fruit clusters, spe cially where falling fruit and flower debris can be messy as well as hazardous. Removing flowers or fruit also reduces the number of potential seedings.

4) Pruning palm trees not only pre vents breakage or damage, but also eliminates nesting places for rats, scorpions and other pests. When to Trim Palm Trees: So, how do you know when it’s time to trim your Here’strees? the good news: because palm trees are generally pretty hardy, they accept pruning best in the spring and summer. If you live in Las Vegas (where there’s hot sun) it’s best to trim your trees in warmer months. Shoot for late spring or end of summer. This gives your beloved palms the best chance of recovery.
Among the most recent investments are a new Low Lake Level Pumping Station (L3PS) and a deep-water intake, which allow the SNWA to draw water from the lowest depths of Lake Mead. These projects not only protect Southern Nevada’s access to its primary water supply, but also help safeguard us all from water-quality issues associated with declining lake levels.

Several candidates will be running in the election to serve you and the community, so be sure to see who is running. Generally, there are several people running for the same Board position so please make sure you are filling out your ballots correctly. The election ballots must be marked accurately or they will be discarded by the election inspectors. Making sure to only vote for the number of candidates allowed is a common mistake on ballots each year. Election ballot inspectors are homeowners who volunteer to help sort out ballots and ensure an accurate count. Once nominated, the Board member will go straight to work with the other sitting Board members and will meet once a month for Association meetings. If you are interested in more information on the upcoming election and how you can get involved, please contact management at aliantemaster@fsrnevada.com.

Combined, Intake No. 3 and the L3PS allow Southern Nevada to access water supplies below Lake Mead’s “dead pool” elevation of 895 feet—the point at which no water can pass through Hoover Dam to generate power or meet downstream water demands in California, Arizona, or Mexico.
• Ballots must be returned by 9:00 a.m. on the 29th.
CONTINUED INVESTMENTS in critical infrastructure enable the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) to assure a safe, reliable supply of water for the com munity despite a climate change-fueled megadrought impacting the Colorado River—the source of 90 percent of our community’s water supply.
Aliante Master Elections
L3PS and Intake No. 3 are key elements of a network of water intakes, treatment facilities, pumping stations, reservoirs and pipelines operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Combined, these facilities can store up to 1 billion gal lons of water and pump more than 1 million gallons per minute through thousands of miles of Withpipes.SNWA’s long-range water resource planning, the community’s ongoing water conservation achievements, and critical infrastructure such as Intake No. 3 and L3PS, Southern Nevada remains one of the most water-secure communities in the Southwest.

Completed in 2020 and put into full operation earlier this year, the L3PS can deliver up to 900 million gallons a day to the SNWA’s two water treatment facilities. This allows the agency to continue sustainable management of Southern Nevada’s water resources in conjunction with the community’s ongoing and highly successful conservation efforts.
Construction of Intake No. 3 began in 2008 and was completed in late 2015. A 24-foot diameter tunnel boring machine was utilized to excavate a tunnel under Lake Mead before connecting with an intake structure secured to the bottom of the lake with more than 1,000 truck-loads of concrete.

What money you may ask, Items specified in Nevada Revised Statutes 120A says Nevada could hold financial assets owed to an individual or a bus iness, including securities, bank accounts, uncashed payroll checks, utility deposits, insurance proceeds, gift certificates, and other items. The primary mission of the Nevada Unclaimed Property Division is to reunite original owners with their property. The Treasurer’s Office is charged with safeguarding the value of these assets in perpetuity. The original owner or heir never loses the ability to claim the property value.
