Nearly 100 years later… today, Old Town Mt. Charleston made history.

For nearly a century, Aspen Avenue has carried families, connected neighbors, and served as a lifeline for Old Town Mt. Charleston.

First established circa 1924, this road holds the footsteps, stories, and daily life of generations who built this community.

Today, the majority of Aspen Avenue is officially a Clark County roadway.

This means safer access, reliable maintenance, proper snow removal, and long-term protection for everyone who depends on it.

But more than that… it means this community came together.

Neighbors chose progress.
They chose each other.
They chose to do what was right — not just for today, but for the future of Old Town.

This didn’t happen overnight.
It took persistence, belief, and a shared commitment to something bigger than any one person.

To everyone who stood behind this effort — thank you.

And a special thank you to Becker and County Nevada.
Your leadership and support made this moment possible.

Old Town didn’t just preserve a road…
we honored its past and secured its future.

Old Town Community Update – Roadway Access & SID Progress

Over the past several months, there has been a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes with property owners and Clark County to move forward with the Old Town roadway improvements and SID effort.

One of the most important priorities in this process is ensuring that the historic road network serving our community remains continuous, safe, and accessible — especially for emergency response, winter access, and long-term maintenance.

Many of these roads have been in place and relied upon for generations, with some dating back to the early development of Old Town in the 1920s. Today, that same roadway system continues to serve dozens of properties throughout the area.

As we move closer to formalizing these roadways with the County, it’s important to understand that gaps or breaks in roadway continuity can impact the entire community, including access, safety, and future improvements.

Our goal remains simple:
✔ Preserve what has existed for decades
✔ Improve safety and access for all property owners
✔ Work collaboratively with neighbors and the County

We are continuing to reach out and work directly with property owners along key roadway segments. We are hopeful that all remaining items can be resolved cooperatively.

If you have questions about how the roadway improvements or SID may affect your property, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

We appreciate everyone’s continued support as we work to protect and improve the roads that serve Old Town Mt. Charleston.

🚧 A Defining Moment for Old Town Mt. Charleston 🚧

Friends and neighbors,

I’m proud to share that Old Town Roads Conservation (OTRC) has officially recorded the final section of roadway and formally commenced the transfer to Clark County for long-term improvements and maintenance.

This is a massive milestone for our community.

What started as a vision — preserving access, protecting property values, and ensuring safe passage for residents — required legal coordination, surveys, dedication agreements, county alignment, and more than a few nail-biting moments. But today, it’s real. The final section is recorded. The transfer is underway. The future of our roadways is secure.

For those who experienced the recent snow event, you already saw a preview of what county ownership means. Early morning plowing. Maintained access. No one stranded. That wasn’t luck — that was progress.

⭐ A Special Recognition

Let me be very clear:

This would not have happened without the leadership and support of our Clark County Commissioner, April Becker.

From the earliest conversations to navigating county process, to ensuring Public Works engagement during the transition — Commissioner Becker stood with Old Town.

She listened.
She leaned in.
She delivered.

Major transitions like this require political will, coordination across departments, and someone willing to champion a mountain community that often gets overlooked. Commissioner Becker did exactly that.

On behalf of OTRC and the residents of Old Town Mt. Charleston — thank you.

🔥 2026 Focus: Fire Mitigation & Insurance Stability

With roadway transfer progressing, our next major initiative is wildfire mitigation.

Across Nevada and the West, property insurance is rising dramatically — and in some cases becoming unavailable — due to wildfire exposure classifications. This directly impacts homeowners, property values, lending, and long-term community stability.

We have begun working with identified agencies and funding partners to:

• Reduce fuel loads
• Improve defensible space
• Pursue grant funding for vegetation management
• Work toward formal recognition as a Fire Safety / mitigation-classified area

Initial research indicates that once properly classified and documented, insurance carriers are willing to recognize these mitigation efforts — and may work with communities like ours to help stabilize or lower premiums while increasing safety for residents and visitors alike.

This is about protection.
This is about resilience.
This is about securing Old Town's future.

To every property owner who dedicated land…
To every neighbor who trusted the process…
To our volunteers and board members who stayed steady…
To the County teams who executed…

Thank you.

There’s something powerful about seeing a snowplow roll through Old Town at 5:30 AM. ❄️🚜

For years, many of us carried real concerns about heavy snow — limited access, emergency response delays, and the possibility of residents being stranded in their own homes. On mornings like this, those worries feel like a distant memory.

A sincere thank you to Clark County Public Works for stepping up and plowing sections of Old Town Mt. Charleston that historically were not serviced. And to the dedicated crew out there before sunrise in freezing temperatures — your work protects our families, our elderly residents, and our community as a whole. It does not go unnoticed.

And a very special thank you to Clark County Commissioner April Becker. Her leadership, persistence, and willingness to engage directly with our community during this transition have made a measurable difference. She listened. She followed through. And she helped ensure that Old Town residents are treated with the same care and public safety consideration as the rest of the county. That kind of representation matters.

Grateful for the teamwork and commitment to our mountain community. Stay safe and warm, everyone.

👋 Meet the CEO – Old Town Roads Conservation

For those I haven’t met yet, I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share why Old Town Roads Conservation exists.

I’m a Las Vegas native, a former Commissioned Officer in the United States Marine Corps, and someone who truly started with very little. Coming from nothing teaches you quickly the value of hard work, discipline, and building things that last.

Over the years, I’ve worked on large-scale casino and hospitality projects across the United States, Macau (China), Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Vietnam, Latin America, and now the UAE. My professional background has centered on complex infrastructure, long-term planning, and highly regulated environments where accountability, integrity, and doing things the right way are non-negotiable.

That same mindset is what led me to create Old Town Roads Conservation Inc..

This organization was formed out of respect for our community and a passion for preserving rural roads, protecting access, and improving infrastructure the right way. When you come from nothing, you learn that what you build—and how you take care of it—matters. These roads aren’t just gravel and pavement; they represent safety, access, property value, and a legacy for future generations.

Our goals are simple:
✔ Preserve what makes Old Town special
✔ Work collaboratively with property owners and the county
✔ Build long-term value, not short-term fixes
✔ Leave something better behind for those who come after us

And lastly—if you’re ever traveling by my cabin on Aspen, please know my door is always open. If I’m around, don’t hesitate to stop by and say hello. That sense of neighborliness is exactly what makes this community special.

Thank you for being part of the journey.

❄️🚜 Good Evening, Old Town Mt. Charleston Subdivision — Snowplowing Update! 🚜❄️

Good evening, Old Town Mt. Charleston Subdivision!

Even though today was a non-school day, we’re happy to share that snowplowing did take place throughout the subdivision. It’s great to see this level of service continuing consistently during winter weather.

A few friendly reminders as we move through the season:

🚗 Please keep all vehicles, trailers, and obstacles off the roadway so the plow crews can work safely and efficiently.

⚠️ Stay clear of the equipment when plows are operating. These machines are large, and visibility can be limited in snowy conditions — safety first for everyone.

🧊 Snow berms along your property are possible, and they are not the responsibility of the county. Please plan ahead, especially if you’re expecting to enter or leave your property after a snowfall.

🌨️ If you’re out driving, please go slow, use caution, and watch for workers and equipment.

📸 And if you caught a photo or video of the plows in action today, feel free to share — it’s exciting to see this happening in Old Town!

As always, if you have any questions, concerns, or anything that needs attention, please reach out to me directly.

Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy another great step forward for our community this winter! ❄️💙

❄️🙏 A MASSIVE THANK YOU to Clark County Public Works & Commissioner April Becker! 🙏❄️

Old Town Mt. Charleston Subdivision Residents & Friends —

Today marks a truly monumental moment for our community, and I want to extend the deepest, most heartfelt gratitude to Clark County Public Works and Commissioner Becker for bringing county-supplied snowplowing to the Old Town Mt. Charleston Subdivision for the upcoming winter season.

This isn’t just a service —
This is safety,
This is access,
This is peace of mind,
And it’s a shining example of what happens when leadership listens to the needs of the people they serve.

🌟 To Commissioner Becker:
Your willingness to hear us, to understand the realities we face up here in Old Town, and to take meaningful action reflects a level of commitment we are genuinely thankful for. Your support has already made a lasting impact — and as we head into winter, it will be felt daily on our roads.

🌟 To Clark County Public Works:
From planning, road previews, and identification of potential issues to now, with snowplows preparing to roll through our subdivision, your dedication is nothing short of inspiring.
Thank you for braving the cold, the elevation, the tight turns, and the long days to keep our community safe this winter.

As a community, let’s all do our part to keep everyone safe:

✔️ Keep all vehicles and obstacles off the roadway
✔️ Stay clear of heavy equipment while crews are working
✔️ Drive slowly and watch for workers
✔️ Be patient as this first season gets underway — perfection comes with practice

Your efforts — and your fortitude to listen, adapt, and respond to public needs — have not only improved our daily lives but strengthened trust between the county and our small mountain community.

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for supporting the Old Town Mt. Charleston Subdivision in such a meaningful and impactful way this winter.
This is a big day for us — and one we won’t forget. ❄️💙🙏

❄️🚜 Old Town Subdivision — Our FIRST County Snowplow Day Is Here! 🚜❄️

Good morning, Old Town!
Today looks to be the very first day we see Clark County Public Works officially providing snowplow service in our subdivision — and we’re excited to finally see this action in motion!

A few important reminders for everyone:

🚗 Please make sure all vehicles, trailers, and obstacles are completely clear from the roadway.
This helps the crews navigate safely and keeps the plowing as effective as possible.

🔧 Public Works has been in the neighborhood over the last two days previewing the roads to identify any areas of concern. They will also be completing work on several water mains along Aspen Ave in the coming weeks, so you may notice temporary asphalt patches placed for the season.

🧊 Snow berms along your property are possible and are not the responsibility of Clark County. Please plan accordingly.

⚠️ For everyone’s safety, please stay clear of the equipment while the plows are operating. These machines are large, working in snowy conditions, and we want to keep the crews — and our neighbors — safe.

📸 And when that first official plow rolls through… snap a picture! This is a monumental moment for Old Town, and it would be great to capture and share it.

As always, reach out to me personally with any questions, concerns, or anything you’d like to bring to my attention.

Thank you all for your support, your patience, and your excitement.
Let’s enjoy this major step forward for our community! ❄️💙

Exciting update for our Old Town community:

Old Town Roads Conservation is pleased to share that we have officially acquired an additional section of Aspen Avenue, and the deed will be recorded with Clark County in the coming days.

Once finalized, we will be transferring this roadway segment to Clark County without restrictions as part of our ongoing effort to secure long-term public access, improve infrastructure, and support the SID process.

A huge thank-you to SID Team and the Clark County Public Works team for their continued guidance and support. Every step like this moves us closer to a safer, better-maintained Old Town Mt. Charleston.

More updates to come.

Thinking about blocking a road or path that’s been used for decades?

At Old Town Roads Conservation (OTRC), we’ve seen a few property owners step into this exact situation. We’re sharing this so folks can make an informed decision before spending tens of thousands of dollars fighting an outcome that, in many cases, the law ultimately favors the party seeking the easement (especially when there’s decades of open, continuous road use and utilities in place).

If the other side has deep pockets, this can become a multi-year financial meat grinder—and your property value can take a permanent hit.

What you’re up against

Runaway legal spend: motions, injunctions, discovery, experts, appeals—each month = more invoices.

Fee-shifting & sanctions: lose key rulings or violate an order, and you could owe their fees too.

Pile-on risk: neighbors or groups can join as co-plaintiffs; attempts at class/mass action increase costs.

Regulatory heat: where roads carry water mains, electrical lines, or fire hydrants, agencies and insurers get involved.

Insurance shock

Carriers may flag you as high-risk once litigation starts: premium spikes, exclusions, non-renewal/cancellation.

You may be pushed into expensive surplus lines or become effectively uninsurable for a time.

The value hit (the part people regret most)

Clouded title + active litigation = fewer buyers and reluctant lenders.

Lower appraisals for litigation risk, likely easements, and compliance obligations.

Disclosure stigma lingers even after settlement.

Usability limits (court-ordered/negotiated easements) can reduce buildable area and add perpetual costs.

“I’ll just declare bankruptcy” isn’t a plan.

Bankruptcy doesn’t erase injunctions, recorded easements, or certain fee awards/sanctions.

You might leave court owing less—but still be bound by orders that control your land and crater marketability.

A smarter path to certainty

Could you negotiate a recorded easement with tight boundaries, use limits, and emergency-access terms?

Built-in maintenance, liability, indemnity, and cost-sharing.

Could you talk to a qualified attorney, appraiser, and insurance broker? Please consider the potential tax treatment if a donation/dedication is on the table.

Bottom line: Before you spend tens of thousands fighting history, understand that the legal and financial gravity often pulls toward recognizing access. Protect your equity—get clarity on your terms, not after a courtroom does it for you.

Not legal or insurance advice—consult local professionals for your specific situation.
