@ 007, where would this condo 55 + condo be built? Phase 3/Rainbow Canyon? There isn't too much left in Phase 2... other than the lot adjacent to the marina, which is slated to be a fractional condo project called LaScala. That's a prime piece of property. I think there are actually 2 parcels of land, one for Lascala and another one as well which is currently for sale, that the white tent is sitting on. Is the tent still there?

Madman.. thanks for the tree pruner info.

I'm still watching the court docket for the golf course water rights trial. It's been quiet, but I'm told the trial is moving forward.

The golf course water rights trial is set for July 16th - stay tuned.

I see a lot of activity going on at the building located on the first right street off LLV Pkwy. This is the street that runs up to the graded lots across from the Falls clubhouse. What is this building? Is this the pump station that was a previous issue? If so, maybe it's a sign that they are prepping to start up the pumps and fill the ponds and start watering again. Can't wait to find out how the trial ends up.

[LLVResident]

CASALLV.. That is pump station previously at issue. I beleive they are preparing to sell and/or develop the phase II lots in that area. If you haven't done so yet, take a walk up in that area. In my opinion, those are some of the nicest lots and views in LLV. You're up above the power lines and have a total view of the strip. On the east side of that hill, you'll have views of Lake Mead.

The pump station probably doesn't have anything to do with the ponds. It has to do with supplying water to the homes in Phase II. The ponds comes from a separate area. Some of the ponds are owned by LLV Master, some by Carmel, some by other entities. That's why some are filled and some arent. There is actually a water fall up on one of the hills that comes down in to the main LLV pond/waterfall. If you look closely, you can see where water used to come down. 3 years ago, pulling into LLV and driving down the parking was beyond words/description. I look forward to the day that everything gets resolved and back to normal.

@ Dan... thanks for the Perk and Post article. Are there any updates on Reflection Bay ownership? Is it still being watered? What about the Falls?

[Casa LLV]

Yep you're right. Spoke with a friend of mine who ran the electrical feeders for that building plus the street electrical for those lots above it. I see work going on on the upper streets so they must be finishing up the infrastructure.
Kinda bummed as I thought maybe something has been worked out in the water rights issue and this was part of it.
Any more news on the trial? You seem to be up on that.

[LLVResident]

Nothing new on the trial. Last I heard, it was still moving forward. I thought it was to begin on 6/25, but now it's mid-July. I stilll hope they reach an agreement before trial.

ATTENTION VIERA AND LUNA OWNERS: I received an email from Aston advising that they have modified their rental contract for Viera and Luna Hotel Condos. It's now a 40/60 split. They take 60%. However, whats new is that they will not charge any other fees as Intrawest did. You would receive 40% of the revenue generated. I think this is a good deal and without all of the other nickel and dime fees as before, should bring the net numbers close to the former Intrawest 50/50 contract. Occupancy has been around 50%. If you go to their website and check their prices for your particular units, I think you'll see you can be profitable again on your hotel-condo and probably same profit similar to if you were renting full-time and not able to use your condo. Aston has been trying really hard to get owners back into their program. I think this also shows that business is returning to Lake Las Vegas. I also found hotel condo financing through Calcon Mortage in Las Vegas. They require 30% down and interest rate about 5%.

How is the front entrance looking?

@LLVResident:

The most recent City Council agenda has an item related to a water services agreement between Camel and the golf courses, FYI.

You are the authority on this, so I figured to pass along the info. I hope this link works: SIRE Public Access

It is on the City's website if the above link doesn't work. Hope this helps in any way!
