Showing ordinances that apply to Cal-Nev-Ari, NV
Cal-Nev-Ari is an unincorporated community (population 144) in Clark County, Nevada. Because Cal-Nev-Ari is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Clark County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The grass height limits rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Clark County requires property owners to keep weeds, grass, and dry vegetation under 6 inches under Title 10 nuisance rules. Overgrown yards are a desert fire hazard and trigger abatement quickly.
Clark County Code Title 10 Chapter 10.30 and Title 14 Chapter 14.55 classify the accumulation of weeds, dry grass, and overgrown vegetation taller than 6 inches on residential property as a public nuisance. Code Enforcement responds to complaints through Fix It Clark County reports and drive-by observations. Because the Las Vegas Valley is in a desert fire risk zone, dried Bermuda grass, tumbleweed (Russian thistle), puncture vine, and cheatgrass are especially targeted, particularly during red-flag warnings. The standard abatement process is a Notice of Violation with a 10 to 30 day cure period depending on severity. If the owner fails to cure, Clark County can contract an abatement vendor to cut the vegetation and lien the cost to the property tax roll. Fees typically run 300 to 800 dollars plus an administrative charge. Vacant lots are a major enforcement target because tumbleweeds build up against fences and structures. Water-conserving alternatives such as artificial turf, decomposed granite, and native xeriscape are strongly encouraged and often incentivized through Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) rebates rather than penalized under this rule.
Grass or weeds over 6 in: Title 10.30 and 14.55 nuisance notice. Failure to cure: administrative abatement plus lien on property. Repeat offender: escalating fines up to 1,000 dollars per occurrence.
