New North Las Vegas rule: Permits required for RVS

Recreational vehicle owners in North Las Vegas will have to apply for a permit to park their oversized campers and boats in the backyard or a side yard adjacent to a garage.

The North Las Vegas City Council unanimously updated an ordinance that limits residents to parking only one recreational vehicle on their property.

The ordinance is aimed at ensuring the vehicles are “compatible with the neighborhood,” according to a city report.

Each parking permit will be reviewed by city staffers, who will determine whether there’s “sufficient space” of at least 10 feet between the owner’s house and any side yard where the vehicle is parked. ordered toxicology tests for Gwen Elizabeth Ulbrich, 48, and her 20-yearold daughter Rose Marie Treloar after autopsies revealed few details surrounding their deaths. This week, more than three months after the bodies were found, the coroner’s office reported that toxicology reports also failed to determine the causes of death.

The mother and daughter were found Sept. 12 inside an apartment unit on the 1700 block of Karen Avenue after the property manager received reports of a foul smell coming from the apartment. Police said the manager opened the apartment door and found a dead woman near the doorway, and emergency personnel later found a second person dead inside the apartment.

It wasn’t clear Friday whether the deaths, which were initially deemed “suspicious,” were being investigated as homicides by the Metropolitan Police Department.

The Highway Patrol responded about 9:45 a.m. to reports of the crash in the northbound lanes near Valley of Fire Highway, dispatch records show.

A 2000 GMC pickup rolled over and an Overton man was thrown from inside, the Highway Patrol tweeted. Trooper Jason Buratczuk said the man, who wasn’t wearing a seat belt, died at the scene.

Investigators think a tire blew, the driver lost control of the pickup, and the pickup rolled over, Buratczuk said.
