a quarter of a million dollars to come up with a new slogan/tag line for NV?? Now? Why couldn't that money have been pushed over to education, or improving the roads, or something USEFUL? And why a company in Seattle?? Are there no local companies that could have done this?

at least they weren't beaten or tazed excessively....

This law is a JOKE. I reported someone who lives in our neighborhood constantly for NINE MONTHS and nothing ever happened.

"I want a copy of any data report collected about me or my home with this meter . Is that too much to ask?"

I think is this 100% reasonable and it should be granted to ANYONE who has these meters.

I'd like to see how these are saving me $$ when it seems every year the PRIVATE company that owns a PUBLIC utility keeps raising their rates.

We compared our bill to last year's during the same time and guess what? We used LESS electricity, but paid MORE. How are we supposed to manage this??

I have experienced both: living with an HoA and without. Despite the HoA's judgements on what was 'appropriate' or not, I had little issue with them. I wish they was more transparency so we could see exactly what our HoA dues precisely pay for

Living without an HoA can be a nightmare. In my neighborhood we have one household who parks their cars all over the cul-de-sac even though their own driveway is empty (as well as the space in front of their house), they have never weeded their yard, they killed the sprinkler system in the front of their house so anything they try and 'plant' dies. I seriously doubt the interior work has been done by a licensed contractor. They have had a broken window on the front of their house for 3 years. We also get to enjoy their 3 little, yappy dogs that bark every second they are outside.

We also have tractor trailers that use our surrounding area as a parking lot.

Bottom line, as long as the HoAs do not exhibit hubris over you and your property, they are the way to go
