State of the City AT THE NORTH LAS VEGAS STATE OF THE CITY
At the North Las Vegas State of the City address in January Mayor Lee shared the success stories and paths taken that helped the city transition out of a financial shortfall. When he took office in 2013 the city was $17 million in debt with a 15 level bond drop over the previous decade. At his latest address he highlighted the improving economic outlook for North Las Vegas, the city full funded, fully balanced and wholly solvent. The Mayor described how the council took on the mentality that they had to do whatever needed to be done to revitalize the city. They worked with industry leaders in the streamlining of the permitting and licensing processes, including a self-certification initiative that reduced wait times from 18 weeks to four days. He also referenced 16 legislative changes the city and Governor’s Office of Economic Development pushed through related to addressing needs related to the much-touted

Here are four things homeowners can do to avoid or mitigate fines: 1.

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. If the homeowner has not returned the Homeowner Response Form requesting an extension or stated a date when the violation will be resolved, and the inspector finds the violation has not been cured by the next inspection, a Hearing Notice is sent which also includes a Homeowner Response Form. If it is not returned requesting more time or giving a date, the violation will be or has been cured, and the violation is not cured by the day of the next Compliance Committee meeting or the homeowner does not attend the hearing to state their case, then and only then are fines levied. 3. Please keep this tip in mind if you are being fined for an open violation. It is very important to notify management, the instant the violation is cured. Otherwise, fines will continue to accrue, at $100 per week, until the next inspection which could be several weeks after the violation was cured.

Garage Sale April 14th and 15th from 7am to 3pm. Do you have things around the house collecting dust? Now is the time to get rid of those unwanted items. The Aliante Master Association will do the advertising and put out signs for prospective buyers. All you have to do is price your valuables and wheel them to the driveway and then you can count your cash. The Master has obtained a garage sale permit for the entire community. Please note: Each gated community will be given the opportunity to participate by opening their gates during these times. This information will be faxed to the individual management co. Please check with your management company to find out if your community has opted to participate by having your gates opened.
Aliante Garage Sale Guidelines Did you know that according to the Aliante Master Associations Rules and Regulations, Section 5.2, that Garage Sale signs are prohibited? Garage sales are prohibited other than the community-wide garage sales, which the Master Board shall organize bi-annually, they are currently scheduled for the second Saturday and Sunday of April and the second Saturday and Sunday of October each year. The Master Board not only posts signs throughout the Community but also obtains the necessary permits from the City of North Las Vegas.
Did you know that if you have a garage sale outside of the above outlined dates you are not only in violation of the Rules and Regulations but may be breaking the law? According to the City of North Las Vegas, Nevada, Code of Ordinances, Chapter 5.21, no household may have more than two garage/yard sales at any location during a twelve month period. Did you know that according to these same ordinances that signs advertising garage or yard sales are prohibited on any public property? Did you know that the penalties for violation of the City ordinance, upon conviction thereof a person may be punished by a fine of up to but not more than one thousand dollars, or by imprisonment in the city detention center for a term not to exceed six months, or by both such fine and imprisonment? Don’t risk it! If you’re desperate to sell unwanted items look into renting a booth at a local flea market rather than violating your Communities Rules and Regulations and breaking the law.

UNLV are earmarked for additional mid to long range development. The city has 30 years to develop the properties that must be used to create jobs and cannot be used for residential development. The cities intention is to move much more quickly with the idea to begin on the first 150 acres over the next year. Additional projects the Mayor touched on during the recent address included investment in infrastructure at Apex and other big companies within the area, becoming a hub for e-commerce, manufacturing, warehousing and technology. By revitalizing old areas and bringing in new funding, Mayor Lee hopes North Las Vegas will be the biggest economic community in this region within the next 20 years.

City Council Corner HELLO, ALIANTE HOMEOWNERS! When we start a
new year, it is common to reflect on the past year, determine how well we did on our goals, and celebrate our accomplishments. After a quick pause to review the previous year, we then quickly move forward with new goals and plans for a productive and successful new year. This is definitely the case for me as I strive to serve the City of North Las Vegas’ Ward 3 residents. One of my goals is to connect with more residents to listen to your suggestions, solve your problems and hear your great ideas for improving our city and the services it offers. In order to do this, I have started to host “remote” office hours in Ward 3. North Las Vegas City Hall is a beautiful facility, and I encourage you to visit here if you have not had the opportunity. However, to make it more convenient, I will bring my office to you. I will be at Silver Mesa Recreation Center from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the third Tuesday of each month and at Aliante Library from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month. You are welcome to make an appointment (please call Council Liaison Nancy Chavez at 702-633-1012), but it is not required. Feel free to show up so we can get acquainted and talk about ways we can make North Las Vegas an even better place to live, work and raise a family. Our City Council recently had the pleasure of celebrating the stunning progress our city has made, during our 22nd annual State of the City luncheon. Mayor John Lee gave a wonderful speech outlining all of the city’s achievements over the past year and offering a sneak peek of where we are headed. Here are some highlights: After facing state receivership, North Las Vegas is now fully funded, fully balanced and wholly solvent. The city’s credit rating has skyrocketed from junk bond status in 2013 to investment grade today.
Our work to bring infrastructure to Apex Industrial Park continues with great success. In the northern Apex area, we will be installing a $4 million water storage tank and water line connecting to an existing city well to bring 400 developable acres immediately online for new job creators. In the southern Apex area, engineering and design work is underway to extend the city’s existing waterline, which ends at Manheim Auto Auction, by more than 5 miles to bring vital infrastructure to over 1,400 acres of real estate. NDOT also just broke ground on a $58 million dollar road and bridge project at Apex. We are opening up another 1,100 acres of land for development near the Las Vegas Motor Speedway by bringing sewer and road infrastructure to that area as well. Businesses already have started purchasing the land for some very exciting projects. The first 1,500 lots at the $3.3 billion Villages at Tule Springs development have been approved, and developers are 50 percent done with a $17 million infrastructure project to serve more than 1,000 properties. The first model homes will be open in May. Before summer, construction will start on the first phase of a $12 million, 35-acre regional park, and another $12 million in infrastructure projects will break ground this year. Public safety is a high priority for this Council. In 2017, we hired 45 new police officers, and we will be hiring another 38 officers this year. We also have 12 new firefighters about to graduate from the academy. We’ve welcomed seven new charter schools to North Las Vegas, and we have many more in development, including at least three expected to come online this fall. As you can see, we’ve been busy, and we have no plans to slow down! I wish you a wonderful, safe, happy and successful 2018, and I look forward to working with you. Scott Black Councilman. Ward 3

Is It Dead or Is It Dormant? TREES AND SHRUBS CAN SOMETIMES be slow to drop leaves in the fall or leaf out in spring. Are they alive, dead, or just plain dormant for the Season? Luckily for all of us there is an easy way to find out. Let’s play detective, do a little work and determine whether your woody plant is dead, in which case you might as well look for a replacement. But if it’s alive, we’ll know to give it a chance. First, bend twigs gently. Dead twigs are usu-

ally brittle, and snap when bent. Live twigs are flexible and bend without breaking. Second, and most reliable is the “scratch test.” With your thumbnail or a knife, gently scrape a small part of the outer gray-brown bark from a twig or branch. Directly inside the outer bark on healthy trees/shrubs you’ll find a nice green layer, called the cambium. That’s where the growth of the plant occurs. If you continue scratching away the thin green layer, you’ll see the whitish inner wood. The presence of the green layer indicates life in the twig or branch. Sample wood from around the tree or shrub to determine whether the entire plant is healthy. On the other hand, if the scratch test reveals that the layer beneath the outer bark is brown, without the presence of a green layer, that twig or branch portion is dead. Continue checking around the tree or shrub to determine if the entire plant is dead, or just portions. Follow up by bending
twigs to see if they snap, giving a second opinion of death. If after you’ve performed this basic test and are still in doubt, there is nothing wrong with
being patient and see what early spring and summer have in store for your plant. Happy Gardening

Safety Tips from Security » » Always have a verbal response to any knock at your door. Avoid giving the impression that the home is unoccupied. This may be a ploy of the home invader or a burglar to decide if you are home or not. Teach your children what to say so they do not give the impression they are home alone. Know in advance what your response should be and practice it with other family members.
» Keep an eye on who you turn away and what they do next. Report anyone who lingers, tries to get a neighbor to open their door, or otherwise acts suspiciously. They may have left your front door but they are still a concern to
others. Call the police if necessary and ask that this individual be checked out. Non-emergency number is 3-1-1 and emergency number is 9-1-1.
» In a gated community, take as many precautions as you would if the gate were not there. If someone calls your home from the gate and creates a reason to be let into the neighborhood, do not let them in if you cannot verify who and why, question them.
» Be suspicious of unexpected knocks at your door. If you are not expecting anyone, service call or otherwise, do not open the door without first asking questions and verifying the answers.
» Be aware of ploys such as fake emergencies, fake deliveries, etc. Know that the person knocking may have a practiced or rehearsed message and it may sound legitimate. Be just as cautious if the knocker is a woman or young adult.
» Use your viewing methods to help verify. Peep holes, nearby windows, vantage points from other rooms may be used to see who is knocking. Enhanced peep holes are recommended.
» Do not feel pressured or forced to
know and trust. All others are not welcome - or worth the risk!
» Consider a high quality security door to maintain a barrier between you and the knocker. This is especially helpful if the door is opened without verifying because there will still be some protection between you and the other person. (Please remember to receive ARC approval before installing.
» Install and maintain adequate security lighting for the perimeter of your home.

Urban Coyotes
that can be found throughout North America and in every major metropolitan city, including New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. Las Vegas is no exception. Whether you live on the outskirts of town or closer to The Strip, there is always a chance you may spot one of these animals running across the street or through an open lot. Coyotes (Canis latrans) are members of the dog family and resemble a medium-sized shepherd-collie type dog. Their coat is varied in color from tans to browns and grays. In some areas their coat may even have a hint of red. Though they may appear larger to some, especially during the cool winter months, our desert coyotes normally weigh between 20-25 pounds. Coyotes can live five to seven years and usually breed January through March. Though generally more active at dawn and dusk, coyotes can be seen throughout the day, year-round. You might wonder why these desert animals are making their way into the city when they have so much wide open desert to roam around in. To put it simply, we have made it easier for them to live in the city than out in the desert. The things we enjoy about living in our communities -- green grass, shade, water features, open space and golf courses-- the coyotes also like. These community features offer a consistent water source, something increasingly difficult to find in the desert as we continue with an ongoing drought. Quail and rabbits living off the green grasses of golf course provide a reliable food source for coyotes. Our manmade structures also provide shelter for the animals. Coyotes can be found in culverts, under bushy vegetation, almost anywhere there is a little protection. When it comes to eating, coyotes are opportunistic feeders. In times when their natural food sources, like rodents, fruits and nuts are low, the city offers additional food sources. Those include human garbage, pet food and even pets. This is usually where the human-coyote conflict arises, especially when pets are involved. A coyote does not know the difference between a rabbit and a small dog, it only recognizes them as food. Even so, there are multiple ways to reduce your risk of having an unpleasant coyote encounter and keep your pets safe: • Do not feed coyotes or other animals. If you feed rabbits or birds, the coyote’s natural prey, you are in turn feeding the coyotes. • Keep pet food inside and out of reach. Clean up any pet food spilled during feeding. • Keep secure lids on any garbage cans left outside, so not to entice a coyote to search your trash for food. • Do not let your cats and dogs roam freely. When walking your COYOTES ARE ADAPTABLE ANIMALS
pets keep them on a short leash. • Eliminate hiding places for the coyotes and their prey. Change or trim landscaping as needed. • Work with your neighbors to make your neighborhood undesirable. If one neighbor feeds animals and another leaves out their garbage, while you are doing all you can to eliminate attractants in your yard, you will still have problems in your neighborhood. Coyote attacks on humans are extremely rare. Clark County has never had a confirmed coyote attack, though they have occurred elsewhere in the West. If you are concerned about safety when out and about in your neighborhood, you may carry sound producing devices like a whistle or horn-in-a-can, or pepper spray to use on a coyote. Let the coyote know that it is not welcome. Another option is to spray the coyote with water from a garden hose. What you don’t want to do is corner or trap the coyote. Give them room to pass so they don’t feel threatened. The Nevada Department of Wildlife will respond to a coyote encounter only if there is a bona fide public safety threat; simply seeing a coyote is not cause for alarm. Coyotes are never relocated as they are a rabies vector species and relocation is rarely effective. Moreover, these are territorial animals and are not accepting of newcomers who are released in their neck of the woods. Coyotes can travel more than 300 miles in order to return to a specific location. Also when one coyote is removed there is an open spot for other coyotes to move into. Some people advocate the removal of all coyotes in and around the Las Vegas Valley, but you will not “get rid” of them. Coyotes have a density-dependant breeding rate, which means that as the coyote population decreases in a given area, there is the chance that coyote pup litters may actually increase in both anumber and size. While the mere presence of coyotes can make some people uncomfortable, this animal plays an important role when it comes to rodent control. Just think, if there were no coyotes to eat rabbits then rabbits just might be eating the special plants in your garden. We share the desert with coyotes, and we need to learn to live with them by adjusting the way we do things and taking the precautions listed above.

NLVPD Residential Security Surveys IT’S IMPORTANT to take a critical look at your
home security every three to four months. Do not become lax — crime prevention is a continuous process. At your request, a Crime Prevention Specialist will come to your residence and evaluate the security of your entire home, free of charge. Every door and window will be checked for the type and quality of lock, the exterior of your home will be evaluated, and information will be provided on how to make your home safer. This residential security survey will provide you with recommendations for making your residence safe and secure. Although none of these recommendations are guaranteed to stop crime, they are an important step in reducing the potential of you and your home from becoming victims of crime.
