address these important issues. I hold a strong interest in our Master Planned Community. I recently became aware of an open position in District 1 and with the support of my husband I am now seeking to represent District 1. I believe that the experience as the current Board President for Estates at Aliante combined with my several years in the professional community qualifies me. I have owned my own businesses and most recently retired as the HR Director of a hospice.

From the President

Board of Directors

WITHIN A FEW DAYS of being elected Board President, approximately

five years ago, I was faced with a serious legal issue I wanted to discuss with our legal counsel. The first thing he said to me was: “Congratulations you are now the nonpaid CEO of a multimillion-dollar corporation.” Over the past five years, there have been

CEO of a multimillion-dollar corporation and doing this job over the past five years has been very demanding, but also very rewarding and fulfilling. As I wrote, in my last From the President article, after being diagnosed with a rare genetic progressive heart disease, I have decided not to run for re-election to the Aliante Master Association Board. Therefore, this is my 30th and final From the President article. When I became

important Board decisions, but would also, in important cases, explain why the decision was made. I hope future Presidents continue to inform and educate homeowners. The fact that the Aliante Master Association is a multimillion-dollar corporation will probably come as a surprise to some of you. Well it is, and it is important to understand that you are all

I can tell you as Board President, who has worked closely with our three-person management team over the past five years, they are all these things and more; and this multi-million-dollar corporation with 6,616 owners has a lot of day to day interactions with the owners and vendors. I also believe, it is the Board’s responsibility to provide these first-class amenities and to

Board know. I want to thank all of you who have expressed concern about my health and have thanked me for my service. It has been an honor and a privilege to have served you. In conclusion, I want to leave you with what I believe was the most important educational information I shared with you: Four things homeowners can do to avoid or mitigate fines. It was included in my March-April 2018 From the President article. (I have added “Three tips on how to interact with the Board when asking for fine reductions,” not included in the March-April article.) Four things homeowners can do to avoid or mitigate fines: 1. First and foremost, ensure your home is well maintained and don’t make any exterior changes without first getting approval from the Aliante Master Association and, if you live in one, your Sub Association. 2. If a homeowner receives a violation letter, the best way to avoid fines being levied, is to respond to the violation letter. The second page of the letter is the Homeowner Response Form. Homeowners can respond:

Pigeon Prevention

Question: Someone seems to be the feeding 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

Pets Are People Too WE LOVE OUR PETS, or as we like to refer to them “Children in Fur Coat”,

and we love to see them out and about in the community. But are you a responsible pet owner? I am sure you take your fury friend to the vet but did you know that beyond walking your friend on his or her leach, you are also required to pick up after your pet? In other words, you need to scoop the poop. If you don’t you are in violation. On November 16, 2017, the Master Association reviewed the current number of dog stations we have positioned throughout the community for pet waste and approved increasing pet waste stations to increase the presence of aids in helping pet owners pick up after their

pets. The map included in this article shows the location of where the stations and the number assigned to each station. Gothic Landscaping volunteered to supply the numbering for these stations. This will assist management and homeowners to identify those stations or locations in need of attention.

Cleaning up after your pets is not only an Aliante requirement it is a City of North Las Vegas violation as well. 6.08.120 is the North Las Vegas Municipal Code and it can contain a fine of up to $1000.00 if you are found in violation of it. It is called the Animal Waste, Odor and Noise. “A. No person having, owning or possessing an animal shall permit, either willfully or through failure to exercise due care, such animal to excrete any solid waste upon any public or private property (unless

Aliante Sub-Associations If you have questions or concerns regarding your specific community, please refer to the following list of sub-associations and contact the appropriate management company. All homeowners are entitled to speak with the listed community manager and/or attend the sub-association’s board meetings.

Garage Sale October 12th and 13th 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.
