Good Morning:

As most of you are aware more than 400 trees located in the common area along the Anthem Loop have been destroyed by cutting. Last night another 20 or more trees were destroyed. Some of these trees were planted more than 7 years ago.

It appears the person finally went too far and this early morning was apprehended by the Henderson Police who responded to a call placed by a person who saw the alleged perpetrator. The alleged “tree cutter” was booked this morning and is currently in jail.

At this point we cannot be sure that this is the only person involved in this activity. I can tell you that it appears the person who was apprehended is a resident of our community.

Please continue to keep a watch out for suspicious activity and call the police if you observe anyone cutting trees or otherwise damaging the common areas owned by our community. (Ed. note: Phone  (702) 267-4750.)

I hope you are having a very pleasant Thanksgiving weekend.

Thanks,

Favil West
