them. I knew early on that I wanted to teach but wasn’t sure which of the two subjects to choose. I began attending U.C.L.A. in 1970 with an “undecided” major. After a number of courses in American history where I could only earn B’s, I made the decision to become a math major as I was getting straight A’s in Calculus. After obtaining my Bachelor’s degree I continued on at U.C.L.A. to obtain a Master’s degree in the Teaching of Mathematics. In September of 1976 I began my 31 year career of teaching middle school math in the Los Angeles School District. As a side job for 30 years I did private math tutoring. I tutored many kids whose parents were very famous and wealthy. Many of the parents were capable of doing the tutoring themselves but lacked patience and sympathy. So I came in to keep harmony in many a household.

Sub-Association Delegates Real information about the Aliante Master Associations In all seriousness, I need to remind all homeowners that while we cannot foreclose for unpaid assessments, they still need to be paid monthly. I know that many of you are struggling with having reduced working hours or in some cases may even have lost your job. If there is a reason why you cannot make your assessment payment, contact us and maybe we can work with you to set up a payment plan, until you get back on your feet. Like you, the Aliante Association has monthly bills to pay. We have water, gas electric, landscaping and security payments which must be paid. We are in this together, and hopefully we will get back to work and be able to enjoy once again living in North Las Vegas. I hope you and your family members are well and that together we will be a stronger community as we emerge from this pandemic. Don Schaefer Aliante Master Board President

Pigeon Prevention

Question: Someone seems to be feeding the pigeons in our neighborhood as they have multiplied over the summer. How can we get rid of them? Please help in eradicating this problem. Answer: Pigeons have four basic needs in order to survive: food, shelter, the ability to reproduce, and safety from predators. If any of these basic needs are disrupted, the pigeons will move away. Food Pigeons will eat anything they can fit into their bill. If they cannot find food in an area, they will look for it elsewhere. Follow these steps to keep pigeons from eating at your house: • Don’t feed the pigeons. - Code of Ordinance 10.36.035 - Pigeon control • Remove unsecured bird feeders and routinely clean up spilled seed. • Cover trash cans and keep area around the cans clean. • Don’t leave uneaten pet food outside. • Pick up after your pets. Pigeons will eat pet waste. • Empty containers of water. Shelter Pigeons seek shelter at night and congregate at roosting sites during the day. Pigeons feel safe in a sheltered area where they are not easily seen. In urban areas, pigeons roost in trees, abandoned structures, rafters, beams, along building eaves and awnings, and under bridges. These areas can be easily modified to discourage roosting. • Block access to interior roosting and nesting sites by using wood, metal, 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) rust- proofed wire mesh, or plastic or nylon netting. • Alter the angle of ledges to 45° or more. Fasten sheet metal, wood, Styrofoam blocks, stone or other materials to ledges to achieve the desired angle. • Porcupine wires can be attached to any area where pigeons roost. These devices consist of a solid base with sharp prongs sticking out at all angles. This prevents birds from landing. To improve the effectiveness, clear debris from wires. • Apartment residents can install fine netting across balconies to deter roosting

Breeding Remove nests to discourage breeding. Pigeons will reuse the same nest throughout a breeding season. Keep removing any rebuilt nests. After a few failed attempts, the pigeons will nest somewhere else. “Birth control” products are available to licensed pest control companies that prevent their eggs from hatching. Safety In an urban environment, pigeons have few natural predators. However, by instinct, pigeons have a fear of being preyed upon. Pigeons may be deterred from locations by hanging “frightening” devices such as strips of Mylar fabric, CDs, pinwheels, aluminum pie plates, large beach balls, noisemakers, and life-size reproductions of falcons, owls, etc. Rotate items to keep the birds from becoming unafraid of them. Flocks of pigeons (and their droppings) are not only an eyesore and nuisance, but they can pose a health risk to humans. The health district does not enforce or regulate pigeon control unless there is a complaint or problem at one of our permitted facilities. Notes • Keep children and pets away from contaminated areas until they have been cleaned, sanitized and dried. • If pigeon debris is in an enclosed area, such as an attic, open windows and use fans to force fresh air into the area before cleaning. • Leave area undisturbed to prevent air-borne particles. • Never handle a dead bird with your bare hands. Use rubber gloves or an inverted plastic bag to pick up the bird. • Place the dead bird into a plastic bag, seal bag and place in an outdoor, covered trash container. • Dead birds should be disposed of with regular trash. • Clothes worn during cleaning should be washed separately in hot water. If possible use a disinfectant in the wash. North Las Vegas Animal Control: (702) 633-1750 Code Enforcement: (702) 633-1677 Southern Nevada Health District

City Council Corner HELLO RESIDENTS,

I’m sure we can all agree on one thing – we’re only halfway through 2020, but it has been a very trying year. If you’re anything like me you’ve probably felt a range of emotions, but one thing is for certain, we’re still here and we are doing everything in our power to keep this community thriving! As you’re all aware, our state is in the process of reopening, but I can’t emphasize this enough, please continue taking necessary precautions especially in you’re in the vulnerable population. This doesn’t mean you should stay home 24/7 – by all means please go out and get fresh air and enjoy life, but continue wearing masks when needed and keep social distancing. Although City Hall is open, feel free to continue taking advantage of our online and phone services. To see a list of payment options, visit https://payutil.cityofnorthlasvegas.com and select quick links at the top of the page, then select bill pay option. Remember, you can always call 702-633-1484 for assistance. Now that it’s summer, I am excited to share that our annual Summer Reading Challenge is currently underway! It’s open to all ages and runs through July 31. To self-register for the Summer Reading Challenge, participants can visit the library’s website at www.nlvld.org or they can visit their app store and download Beanstack Tracker. Once you have created a username and

password, be sure to enter North Las Vegas Library District when it asks for your library name. Select Summer Reading Challenge 2020 and get ready to log reading and activities for your chance to win! Each badge earned automatically gives you one entry into the grand prize drawing of a Kindle Fire. Don’t forget, our library also offers plenty of useful resources online at www.nlvld.org. All you need to access these valuable free resources is a library card. If you don’t have a library card, or if you are having difficulty accessing our databases with your current card, please send an email to nlvrefdesk@cityofnorthlasvegas.com. Lastly, thank you to all of you who have already completed your Census! Based on the Census, Nevada receives $6 billion in funding for important community services like schools, police, fire, health care, roads and more. For our city, it can mean up to $2,000 per resident. It also ensures we receive a proportionate amount of federal funds that help communities recover from this pandemic and any future disasters that may strike. If you haven’t filled it out there is still time! Please visit 2020census. gov or by phone at 844-330-2020. We are a wonderful and diverse city and it is my hope that we can all continue to keep our city thriving. Thank you for giving me a chance to serve you. If there is anything you’d like to voice your opinion about, you can always feel free to contact me. Yours in service, Mayor Pro Tem Scott Black July-August

Congressional Corner SINCE THE START of the coronavirus pandemic,

we have worked to help thousands of Nevada small businesses, but we have heard that more needs to be done to help those who need it the most. That’s why, I voted to pass two bills that will guarantee that Main Street and its mom and pop shops receive the financial support they need. The TRUTH ACT will improve transparency in SBA lending and require the SBA to identify borrowers with loans above $2 million and explain their decision-making process, so that funds go to the small businesses most in need. The bill also requires disclosure of assistance to socially and economically disadvantaged small business owners and women- and veteran-owned businesses. The PPP Flexibility Act will increase flexibility and access to PPP loans including by allowing loan forgiveness for expenses up to 24 weeks, extending the program through the end of 2020, increasing loan terms from two to five years, and ensuring full access to payroll tax deferment for businesses that take PPP loans. Every day, in phone calls with constituents and meetings with Congressional leadership, I’m working to make sure Nevada has the resources it needs as we enter this next phase of the coronavirus pandemic.

I’m fighting to ensure that the priorities of Nevada’s Fourth Congressional District are incorporated in any future emergency response package. So please, share your priorities below. Listening to you helps me bring your voice to Washington and better advocate for our community in Congress. I have also worked hard to compile a guide to all of the services and benefits already available to you at this time which you can find here or on my website at horsford.house.gov/coronavirus-community-resources. You can find information about: 1. Finding your child free meals offered by CCSD 2. Helping your child get connected to the internet so they can continue their education while schools are closed 3. Assist you in applying for expanded unemployment insurance benefits 4. Helping small business owners access the funds they need to keep paying their employees without closing their doors 5. Finding ways to secure meals for seniors with home-delivered meal If you need assistance accessing ANY of the above benefits, do not hesitate to contact my office at 702-963-9360 or visit my website for more information.

Dancing in the Streets ON MAY 12TH, residents of Aliante Cove enjoyed a dance with their neighbors courtesy

of In It Together SNV Dance Mobile. Dance Mobile encouraged everyone to get moving, while adhering to social distancing of course, and have some fun outside on community streets.

Carson Corner HELLO NEIGHBORS, and Congratulations to all

of Our Graduates! We are nearing the end of June, and in Phase 2 of the re-opening of our State. Many families are making, adjusting and for some forgoing summer vacation plans. Together our lives have been impacted by this global pandemic which has led to a shared economic crisis. Now with recent televised events we are now hearing a renewed cry for social justice. To say that these are challenging times would be an understatement. On April 1, Governor Sisolak ordered that we all stay at home until at least the end of April to help flatten the curve of Covid-19. On May 7th Nevada was presented with a Roadmap for reopening and on May 9th we entered Phase 1 which allowed with some restrictions the reopening of restaurants, hair and nail salons barbershops, transportation, and general office environments. Nevadans are asked to continue adhering to social distancing and wearing face coverings to protect our neighbors. Phase 2 began on May 31st which allowed the reopening of fitness facilities and the gaming industry. However due to the increase in positive test in this phase on June 14th Governor Sisolak announced that Nevada was not ready to enter Phase3. To date Nevada has conducted more than 248,500 PCR tests, of those 11,280 have tested positive for COVID-19 and 465 Nevadans have lost the battle to the virus. In those State numbers 9,157 of the positive tests were in Clark County and 380 people of the 1,751 hospitalized in Clark County lost their battle to this Coronavirus. Therefore, I ask, and it cannot be stressed enough how important it is for all of us to continue wearing face coverings to protect each other and keep social distancing. As announced by Governor Sisolak during a recent press conference, a Special Session of the Legislature will be called before the end of

Nevada’s fiscal year. The Legislative body continues to conduct the State business through the Interim Finance Committee, Legislative Commission and Statutory Interim Committees, the newly established Legislative CARES Act Oversight Sub-Committee and the Economic Forum. I invite you to follow the process and attend meetings right from your home by logging on to www.leg.state.nv.us. On a personal note: During this time of heighten racial tension in our community, our State and our Nation I have a few additional requests of you. Many of you are thinking of your neighbors by wearing face coverings knowing that the current science tells us the these masks do not protect the person wearing the mask but those that they come in contact with and I thank you for that. Yet, in doing that we cannot see each others smiles, I ask that you speak up, say hello to all those that you pass when out in our community no matter their race or skin color. We may not be able to see your smile, but we can hear it in your cheerful greetings. This summer be intentional in learning more about your neighbors who may look different than you; ask questions, you just might learn that you are much more alike than we are different. But understand that there will be differences, differences in cultural traditions, in political opinions, and religious beliefs I ask that you embracing and learn to appreciate those differences…What a boring world we would live in if we were all the same. My last ask, treat others the way that you would want them to treat you and your family members, remember our children are watching. It is my honor to serve you and I am available to answer or help find the answer to your questions. You can contact me at 702-816-7922 or daniele@daniele4nevada.com. Be safe, enjoy your summer and while social distancing take this opportunity to go on a family adventure, explore Nevada, we truly are a beautiful State. Daniele Monroe-Moreno Nevada Assembly

County Corner MANY OF US, me included, have been saying

“WHAT a Year!” As I contemplated about the information I want to share with you today, it hit me that we are only a little over halfway through the year. I was quoted on Good Morning America saying in early June, “We are moving forward, because we have to.” The decision to re-open Southern Nevada was not an easy one, as I place health and protection of every resident above profit and expectation. As we move into the next stages of re-opening our community, I want to emphasize what we can all do to help in our ongoing efforts to remain safe. The number one thing we have found that combats the spread of coronavirus is social distancing. When or if you find yourself at public places or in groups more than ten, maintaining a six-foot separation and wearing a face mask not only protects your health, but also protects others who may be at a greater risk. Unfortunately, many of the things we used to enjoy are going to be look and feel differently in the near future. Live music events will be on hold for a while until venues can address best practices to maintain necessary safety standards or we have a significant cure for the virus. Same with live sporting events. Several venues in Las Vegas are in the running to host NHL and WNBA re-vamped seasons, but these events will not include fans and will be strictly regulated. University Medical Center and the Southern Nevada Health District have done an excellent job ramping up testing for the virus so we will be ready if spikes start to occur. The key to staying on top of such spikes will be adequate testing and contact targeting after people are identified as positive. If we can isolate those who have the virus and make sure they are quarantined and not infecting others, we can make sure it doesn’t spread, especially to our most vulnerable populations. A lot of care and thought went into the current re-opening guidelines and regulations that we are asking businesses to follow. Each sector has its own set of standards on how to serve its customer base and make everything

as safe as possible. You can visit these businesses with peace of mind that you will be protected and that every precaution has been taken to keep you and your family safe. The County will continue to update those guidelines as we move into different phases of the recovery, until it becomes clear that there is an effective vaccine for the virus. Now that Southern Nevada has reopened, many people will flock to again enjoy city and county parks and recreational facilities. While these will be maintained and sanitized by parks and recreation employees, it is up to all of us to be smart and do our part. Please do not drink from public drinking fountains if you can avoid it. Bring your own water and supplies. Don’t use grills in picnic areas and wipe down any tables or seating in public areas. Disinfect any areas that are high-touch surfaces. And again, maintain social distancing from others who will also enjoying the facilities. One of the things that has been most gratifying is the way neighborhoods have come together in the midst of this pandemic. Neighbors are shopping for other neighbors who might be more susceptible to the virus. People are holding socially distanced events to keep in touch, and everyone is pitching in when other neighbors are in need. I worked with several local businesses to create “Delivering with Dignity” to provide meals to those who lost jobs or did not have access to stores or fresh healthy produce. Several community organizations pitched in to feed first responders and medical professionals taking care of COVID-19 patients as well as those who fall within the poverty threshold. Southern Nevada has a big heart, and never before has it been more evident than during this crisis. The County will continue to always be a resource for anyone needing assistance. If you have any questions or want to see what services are available, check the COVID-19 resource page on my website and www.marilynkirkpatrick.com. Or call my office at 702-455-3500. I look forward to the days in the very near future when we can continue neighborhood meetings and community gatherings. Until then, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

State Your Claim Could Nevada be holding money for you?

What money you may ask, Items specified in Nevada Revised Statutes 120A says Nevada could hold financial assets owed to an individual or a business, 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. Note: Unclaimed Property Does Not Include Real Estate Or Vehicles.

Here is how you can check to see if you have unclaimed money.
