Total dissolved solids (TDS) exceed 1,500 parts per million (ppm)

Some pool companies offer mobile filtration systems which remove dissolved solids from your pool water without the need to drain it, reducing water consumption and possible damage to plaster.
Pool and spa water must be drained into the sanitary sewer system, usually accessible through a clean-out port located in your front yard or elsewhere on your property. For help locating your sanitary sewer port, review these tips from SNWA.com.
Draining pool or spa water into the street is considered water waste.
Draining pool or spa water into a manhole is considered illegal dumping, is prohibited and can lead to a fine.
Do not drain a pool into a septic tank, which can quickly overfill. Homeowners on septic systems should contact the City of Henderson prior to draining their pool or spa to avoid receiving a water waste notice.

Street Sweeping Schedule: What is the street sweeping schedule?- ... (more)
- Currently, there is no set street sweeper schedule.
This is due to the limited resources of equipment and manpower we currently
have. Each COH street sweeper, however, is required to cover their entire
designated area once a month. Due to unforeseen circumstances, they might be
dispatched to clean up after vehicle accidents, or incidences that also require
immediate clean-up, such as oil spills, debris in the roadway, broken glass,
etc. that would pull them away from their sweeping routine. Maintenance factors
on the sweepers also limit the ability to provide a set sweeping schedule. It
is possible, however, to request specific street clean-up for our residents
when needed by calling the Public Works Support Services Division's direct
number at (702) 267-3259.

but are not limited to: Reckless or Aggressive Driving, Flee Police, Leave the
Scene of Accident, Child Safety Seat, and certain criminal misdemeanors.) You

scheduled court date. You must request traffic safety school and
enter your plea of Guilty or No Contest before or on the court date listed on

is a traffic safety school fee, which is in addition to your citation fine
