The contract includes renting the lights that wrap around our palm trees. Since the trees are taller than they were several years ago, when we first started lighting the trees, there was an increase in this cost. The installation of a new display for this year also added to the cost. • You may recall the Board won the legal appeal in the Prem Deferred case and our $1 million cash bond has been returned to the Association. Because the case was remanded back to district court and there is uncertainty regarding the outcome of this, our legal counsel has stated the Association has a fiduciary duty to disclose and set aside the funds for this contingent liability. Upon this advice and the advice of our CPA the Board voted to set these funds aside in a Legal Liability Fund. Homeowners are hereby duly notified the Association has set aside these funds.

as well. If so, call the police.

Is your front door secure? Entry doors to your home should be made of solid wood or reinforced steel. Consider replacing the strike plates on your door jam with security strike plates (available at most home improvement stores) that have screws that are 3 to 6 inches in length and will secure the strike plate to the door frame, making it difficult for someone to kick the door in.

Are your windows and sliding doors vulnerable? Reinforce with security laminate and avoid having door locks near windows. Reduce the opportunity to maneuver the glass out of the door frame or track by using secondary locking devices or adjusting screws in the track to prevent lifting.

• Break down all boxes that contain electronic or high-end items and place them inside garbage cans, or black plastic bags before placing them out for trash day. • Make it a point to meet your neighbors. This way you’ll be able to recognize when someone

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.
