  1. From Barbara Sidary...to...Anthem Opinions

    Since you wrote about the Henderson airport, I actually made several calls about a month ago. 

    I think it is time that we grew up and put an actual "BIG" sign that indicates where the airport is located.  There is a big sign for the restaurant but only a small green sign that says Henderson airport. 

    You can almost miss it. 

    Didn't get much of a response but I tried.

    I also called the City of Henderson about a second  left turn lane from St. Rose onto Executive Airport drive. 

    You have to sit thru numerous lights to go left because of Costco and it will only get worse. 

    I was told that this is already in the works.

  2. From Joe Fay...to...Anthem Opinions

    Can someone tell me the hours in Sun City Anthem for "Acceptable Noise" starting time and ending time; i.e. gardener's leaf blowers, tree trimmers, and a dog that barks on and off during the day?

    Thanks in advance.

  3. Same as the city of Henderson, basically 11:00 pm to 7:00 am. See Henderson Police Noise Ordinance for more info.

  4. Joe, after reading Ed B.'s brief information, I looked up the actual municipal codes pertaining to noise. 

    There seems to be one for animal noise and a second for general noise.

    The Henderson Municipal Code pertaining to animal noise reads:

    It is unlawful for any person to own, keep, harbor or possess any animal which, by unreasonably loud, unnecessary, or frequent barking, yelping, howling or other noise, causes unreasonable annoyance or disturbance to the neighborhood or to any person of ordinary sensitivity in the vicinity.

    Here's the complete municipal code:

    Regarding noise in general, here's that complete municipal code:

    Any further questions, I would contact The City of Henderson at
    (702) 267-2323. They are open 7:30am to 5:30pm Monday thru Thursday.

    The address is: 240 S. Water Street

  5. After reading Marty's comments, he failed to point out that the Metroplex plan is also tied to the local airports as noted in his shared link. FYI the City of Henderson does not have a comprehensive noise code, so airplanes are totally exempt. I would say given how Clark County Aviation and the City of Henderson are managing aircraft noise complaints the problem will be get worse before it gets better. Early on when Clark County bought Henderson Executive Airport site from a private entity in the 90s and dedicated by Clark County Commissioners in 2006, it appears they failed to mitigate the noise impacts to local neighborhoods, including Sun City Anthem. Our homes were not built to the local airport standard noise specifications. Remember when the helicopters were flying over our homes and it required action from Pulte/Del Webb executives? Now will see if our HOA Board and CEO will be able to protect our properties from excessive airport noise including increased jets, small plane operators, and acrobat aces that exceed the sound rating our Sun City Anthem homes. Henderson airport is used in the evening and early mornings. So further no restrictions on when aircraft can fly over us in our once quiet neighborhoods and villages or the type of aircraft. Note the FAA is being sued for aircraft noise issues in Seattle and Washington DC area. Maybe its time we start a class action law suit to protect our homes not that I don't want our City and County to grow up and maintain its stellar quality of life for residents and businesses.
