If you have set up your ClickPay account to send a specific dollar amount you will need to “reset” the amount to be paid for the new assessment amount of $44.85. You may change the assessment amount by logging into your account, selecting Auto Payments and then clicking the “Edit” link. (See the screenshot labeled “Edit ClickPay”.)

When paying with Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover, either a debit or credit card, there is still a 2.95% fee. As a reminder, payments made via eCheck through ClickPay will process within 24 hours when paid by 4pm, excluding weekends and holidays. Payments paid on or after the 15th will receive a late fee.

From the President WHO AM I and why am I here are the famous words of Admiral William

Stockdale, Ross Perot’s choice for vice president in 1992. I now repeat these words in the Aliante Aerial as your new President of the Aliante Master Association. Yes, Michael Breault, after five years as a very effective and active President, has stepped down. He is not gone since he signed up to be a member of the ARC Committee. Also leaving after many years on the Board was Marissa Kagan who also looked out for our community and was the key person who started Aliante Cares, a community organization that looked after Aliante keeping the kind of place we all love living in. I’ve been on the Board since it first started. For the past three years I’ve been your Vice president and was reelected this past September as the at large member of the board who is

elected by all of the homeowners not just by members of each district. When Michael and Marissa left they were replaced by Janice Derossier for District 1 and Zack Wiederstein for District 3. Let me tell you who I am. My wife Gayle and I bought our house in Sun City Aliante in October 2002 on the first day their sales office opened. It was a storefront in Centennial Center because Aliante was nothing but raw desert and there were no roads. We are both from the New York metropolitan area. I met her in the late 1960’s when I was teaching skiing in Lake Placid. She was one of my students. We lived first in New Jersey and I worked for RCA Institutes a technical school that, today, would be likened to a community college. We then moved to Florida and for about 30 years lived a good life in the sun (except for a few hurricanes) in the Fort Lauderdale area. It was there that I started working for local government. As the Telecommunication Manager for the City of Fort Lauderdale part of my job was to work with citizen groups and HOA’s. I was the City’s ombudsman when it came to cable TV

human voice within 8 to 10 rings. I also had worked for Miami-Dade County Police Department where I was their Communication Engineering Manager. I took their communication systems from an old fashioned simple VHF radio system to a state of the art modern system that supported 16,000 radio users. In 1996 I was honored for my community volunteer work by being selected to carry the Olympic Torch through south Florida. It still hangs on my office wall. Both my wife and I loved vacationing is Las Vegas and we had looked at several communi-

Las Vegas. The next day when we flew into the City we went straight to their sales office. They took us into the middle of the desert in a 4 wheel drive vehicle. You could look right down to Fremont Street with nothing in the way. Mt. Charleston was just to the west (Did I mention I love skiing?). I said to the salesman if he will take a credit card I’ll buy it right now. He did and I did. The rest is history. I am an electrical engineer and I operate a consulting company that specializes in public safety communications systems.

City Council Corner who lives in our beautiful Aliante Master-Planned Community! I hope you all had a great summer and are enjoying the start of fall as we look forward to some well-deserved cooler weather and upcoming holidays. I would like to briefly update you on some community events and provide you some information that may be of interest based on communications I have had with our residents over the past couple of months. First, my monthly Ward 4 e-newsletter took a short hiatus due to some staffing reassignments, but I’m excited to let you know that it will begin again shortly. Stay tuned! On Saturday, Sept. 14, we celebrated our 5th annual “Armed Forces, Military Veterans and First Responder Appreciation Day” at Craig Ranch Regional Park. It was another successful event honoring all of these amazing men and women and their families for the service they provide our community and country. I want to thank all of our many volunteers, the City of North Las Vegas parks staff, my fellow Council members, my co-chair Laura Coleman, and our Military/Veteran’s nonprofit for their help in making these yearly events possible. As a City, we continue to move forward in providing the services and amenities that our residents have asked for, such as restaurants, shopping and medical services. The most recent example was the groundbreaking for SDI Steinberg Diagnostic Imagining that will be located next to the Dignity Health-St. Rose Hospital on Craig Road. This cutting-edge facility will bring needed health care options to our City so that our residents can receive the best care possible, close to home. I also recently attended a ribbon cutting for the new Sephora West Coast Distribution Center that’s now located here in North Las Vegas. It will create thousands of good-paying jobs over the next few years, with an emphasis on hiring local residents and folks with disabilities. HELLO TO EVERYONE

Another priority of our Council is to provide quality affordable housing for all, especially first-time homebuyers. I’m happy to report that, even as equity rises for homeowners, North Las Vegas remains the best value for your money in the valley. Our successful economic development efforts and the companies we’ve recruited to our City will be key to maintaining services in the future, particularly in the event of another economic downturn, which many economists predict is on the horizon. In the past, pigeonholing the City as a bedroom community, where people simply came home to sleep after working, shopping, eating and enjoying entertainment elsewhere, caused North Las Vegas to take a huge financial hit during the Great Recession. Thankfully, we’ve learned important lessons from these inherited mistakes and now run North Las Vegas differently to ensure the City’s long-term health, success and sustainability. Up at Apex Industrial Park, progress is moving quickly with the installation of a water line and the recent sale of the land owned by Faraday Future. Although the Faraday project never got off the ground, it triggered significant private investment in the site and major commercial interest in the area, without one penny of taxpayer dollars being spent. Fast forward to this past month, and Faraday sold its property to H&R REIT, one of Canada’s largest real estate investment trusts with over $14 billion in assets. The sale allows the land to be developed, bringing even more jobs and business opportunities to residents here in the City. For you lucky retired folks with jobs now in the rear view mirror, please keep in mind that all of this economic development translates into more services for all of us residents in the form of increased public safety and recreation investment, and greatly supports our property values continuing to increase in the future. So until my next Aerial article, I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season, and suggest you visit our city website, www.cityofnorthlasvegas.com, to subscribe to my monthly e-newsletter. Just follow the links to my page in the Mayor and Council section! Richard Cherchio Councilman, Ward 4 November-December

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.
