Moving at the Speed of Business AS THE ROOM FILLS with almost one thousand

people in attendance North Las Vegas Mayor, John Lee, shares the city’s infrastructure success of 2018 at his 2019 State of the City address. “No longer a bedroom community”, the Mayor boasts that North Las Vegas is becoming the e-commerce capital of the west. As reported in the May/June 2018 issue of the Aliante Aerial, new businesses such Amazon’s 2.4 million square foot warehouse, are helping to create 1000’s of jobs and transforming undeveloped land to vital residential and commercial real estate. In last year’s address the Mayor talked about the city’s adopted policy, “Grownomics”. This mindset was to increase the city’s tax base by recruiting new and expanding companies to North Las Vegas, and encouraging land owners and developers begin development on

OUR LANDSCAPE LED lighting renovation projects at the entrances to

La Vella, Pavona, Ravenna, Salerno, San Destin, Serenata and Vialetto have been completed. The lighting in the park at the north end of Mandible Street in Pavona has also been completed. This required bringing power 650’ down the street to provide tree and bollard lighting. This now makes this park usable between sunset and sunrise when it was previously not usable. In my November-December 2018 From the President article I told you about a situation regarding new homes that were being built adjacent to the west perimeter wall of Club Aliante. The Aliante Master Association Board and the Club Aliante Board believed this to be an encroachment and illegal appropriation of Club Aliante’s wall. In addition, the homes were being built on land that was considerably higher than the homes in the Club Aliante along this wall. There-

I hope to see more new faces at upcoming Board meetings. Important Board Decisions At The January 24, 2019 Meeting • The Board approved several proposals from Gothic to renovate our landscaping, irrigation and rock replenishment along our streetscapes: on Aviary Way between Centennial Parkway and Elkhorn Road. 2. $179,288 to renovate the landscaping and irrigation on Aliante Parkway between Centennial Parkway and the 215 Bruce Woodbury Beltway. (Rock refreshment proposal to come later) 3. $85,683 to renovate the landscaping and irrigation and $83,335 for rock refreshment on Elkhorn Road between Aliante Parkway and Aviary Way. The proposals will dramatically increase the number of existing plants and trees to come into compliance with the Aliante Development Agreement, use different plants than those originally used to satisfy the request of some Board members for Gothic to be more creative and replaces those plants that proved to be unsuitable for our climate or susceptible to disease. (The original landscape company is based in Arizona and chose plants that proved to be not suitable for our climate.) I know many homeowners are displeased with the large number of plants we are planting due to the cost and the ongoing cost of water and maintenance, but the Board has no choice as we are legally required by the Aliante Development Agreement to plant a minimum number of plants per 10,000 square feet. (I had several meetings with the City, including the mayor, to try to get this change to 80% ground cover, but to no avail.) continues on page 8

Community Garage Sale April 13th and 14th 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.

City Council Corner THE START OF THE NEW YEAR is a chance to reflect on

years past and look toward the future. As Mayor, I am excited to be building a city with a strong future. This is more than just adding pipes and roads (although as you drive around our city, it’s clear we are doing lots of that infrastructure work!) It is about fostering strong and cohesvive neighborhoods. It is about building a safe and vibrant community of people. It’s about having the right elected leaders to continue this mission. Two years ago, I said North Las Vegas was in a buffering stage. The fruits of our labor were still loading. Today, I am happy to say: We are in full-fledged action mode! The biggest highlight of 2018 was achieving a goal we set more than five years ago: Raising the city’s credit rating from junk status to investment grade. I am so proud to say that Wall Street has recognized the historic transformation our city has made by increasing our credit rating a dozen notches. Moody’s attributed its rating increase to the City’s unprecedented economic expansion, focus on residential and commercial development, growing population, sound fiscal practices and strong institutional framework. The credit jump enabled the city to go to market for the first time since 2011 for a bond refinance. The bottom line is, you, our residents, are going to save $40 million in interest payments over the next 18 years because of this one bond restructure. That money, which would have gone to banks on Wall Street as interest, instead will support the city as we grow our workforce and expand services for residents over the next two decades. This is just the beginning of our city’s exciting turnaround! Fifty percent of the land in North Las Vegas is still available for development, a unique advantage in our land-locked valley, and one major international companies have recognized. Right now, we are drafting a master plan for our 150-acre job creation zone, across the street from the VA Hospital, to bring more research, development and technology to the area. This will be the heart of our new Innovation District that will span from the Deer Springs District to the Speedway, to complement the VA Hospital and future UNLV campus and to bring additional jobs, capital investment and lifestyle amenities to our city. You are going to see great things happen in North Las Vegas over the next five years. The unprecedented development and infrastructure investment taking place around

the I-15 and 215 Beltway will continue. New businesses and industries already have plans in place to follow the water line being built to Apex Industrial Park and to develop the raw land north and west of the interchange into useful real estate. Major operations continue to look at Apex for expansion, and our gem of an Industrial Park is well on its way to a full buildout to create thousands of jobs for our hard-working residents. Our Public Works Department has also been hard at work. We have more than $60 million of infrastructure improvements underway right now. I’d venture to say there is more horizontal infrastructure work happening in North Las Vegas right now than in any other city in Nevada, and the real estate it is creating is attracting some of the biggest companies in the world. Our expanding economy is the backbone of our community, the spine that supports all we do. But our neighborhoods and residents are the heart and soul. Our population officially broke the quarter million mark this year. Our wonderful city is now home to 252,000 people and growing fast. We are now the No. 3 largest city in the state of Nevada! We just passed Reno!Redevelopment efforts have already begun to redefine our downtown urban core, and we’re just getting started! In the past year, we’ve seen the completion of several major projects downtown, including the debut of Maya Cinemas, several redeveloped shopping plazas and new restaurants and health care offices. A major master-planned commercial project is in the works, and we’ll have more exciting development announcements soon. As a result of our work to redefine the city, our future tax base will be larger and more diversified, and North Las Vegas will be better insulated from inevitable future economic downturns or corrections. All of this amazing work wouldn’t be possible without our wonderful employees and leadership team. They are the smiling faces who greet you at the customer service counter and answer your questions over the phone or by email. Over the next five years, the most important thing we’ll be doing is growing our staff to better serve you, our residents and customers. Thank you for being a part of our amazing journey, and I can’t wait for you to see what’s next! John Lee Mayor, North Las Vegas

Spring Landscaping To Do List BELIEVE IT OR NOT, winter

is ending soon, which means the time is ripe to get our plans in order for this year’s garden, whether you’re dreaming of a bounty of vegetables, a balcony of colorful flowers, or some other sort of outdoor oasis. Here are our top 5 get-ready-to-garden tips. 1. Calibrate and Automate Your Irrigation System: Make it a little easier on yourself with some gardening hacks. For example, calibrate sprinklers so they always water your lawn just right (which means, as little as possible, conserving water). Follow the watering guide lines for your zone. Build a drip irrigation system so you never forget to water your garden. 2. Sharpen and Sanitize Your Tools: the sharper the better. Get your pruning shears, shovels, and other tools in shape before you have to use them and you’ll save time and effort in the long run. Sanitize your tools by spraying a light coat of watered down bleach after each use, this will prevent any disease or fungus to spread from plant to plant.

From the President

3. Prune shrubs and trees, and divide Perennials: Winter is the best time to prune your trees and shrubs, before new growth and warm weather can increase the risk of disease. Just make sure you do it properly. 4. Fertilize: Once you have tested your soil to know what condition it is, get out the fertilizer or compost. Most plants like to be fertilized early in the spring when they are having their initial growth spurt. 5. And Don’t Forget To Maintain: Upkeep during the whole season is key. Once your flowers start blooming you will have to deadhead to promote more flowers (depending on the species). Deadheading is when you cut off the drooping or fading flowers from the rest of the green, healthy stem. The late spring is also a good time to put down a nice layer of mulch on the garden, this will help hold down weeds while keeping in water for those long hot summer days ahead. It also will break down over the fall and winter and help add nutrients to the soil.

tions before making any exterior changes to their homes in the last edition of the Aerial. We suggested homeowners should review the Aliante Governing Documents when contemplating changes to save themselves time and disappointment. The Aliante Governing Documents, specifically the CC&R’s and Design Guidelines, require all homeowners living in Aliante to obtain approval from their sub-association, if applicable, and the Master before making any changes. When we purchased our homes we agreed to be legally bound by this rule.

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. Go to the Nevada State Treasurer website and click the yellow smiley face option that says “search for unclaimed money”. It really is that easy. Not from Nevada? You can state your claim in other states as well. Go to missingmoney.com. There is no fee to file a claim or to search for property.
