Fall/Winter Pool Hours
LAP POOL & UPPER SPA 8 am–8 pm daily, depending on weather.
LAP SWIM Lap Swim is by reservation only. Reservations start at 8 am with the last available time slot at 7 pm (the pool closes at 8 pm). One session per resident per day. Reservations may be made through Zen Planner or over the phone (787-4500).
LAP SWIM ETIQUETTE Please be courteous to other lap swimmers when there is only one lane in use. Circle swimming is a good rule of thumb when there are multiple swimmers in one lane. Please stay to the right of the blue lane guide when this is appropriate.
UPPER SPA RULES 1. Extended exposure to hot water or vapors may be detrimental to the health of
elderly persons and persons with heart conditions, diabetes or high or low blood pressure. 2. People with skin, ear, genital or other body infections, open sores or wounds should not use the hot tub due to the possibility of spreading infection. 3. Do not ingest water by mouth as this can cause infection and illness. Parents are to warn children not to allow water in their mouths. 4. The heat of the hot tub water speeds up the effects of alcohol and can cause sleepiness, dizziness and unconsciousness. 5. Horseplay, splashing, swimming and diving are not permitted in the spas
Aquatic Weather Policy Ice: Management reserves the right to close the pools at any time due to cold temperatures causing ice on the pool deck.

2021 Board Elections
By now you should have received Board election ballots and candidate statements. Nevada law requires that all directors be elected by secret written ballot. Only you can vote on your secret ballot, which must be completely filled in and placed in the envelope marked secret ballot. It will not be opened until the Annual Meeting at 4 pm on Monday, Nov. 15, at The Club at Town Center.
Ballots returned by U.S. Mail must be sent to The Club at Town Center, 7650 Town Square Way, Reno, NV 89523 and received by Nov. 14. Ballots may also be returned in person to the ballot boxes at either the Club or Aspen Lodge, no later than 1 pm on Nov. 15. No ballots will be accepted at the Annual Meeting.
Compliance Information
To report a non-compliance, please email soa@somersett.org or call 787-4500. While we do investigate and document each complaint received, we cannot disclose the status of anyone’s account. Should a homeowner not respond to or correct a violation, he or she will be summoned to a hearing and could be suspended from the Club and assessed fines. The Association has a policy not to enter a property unless it is bank owned, and then only to repair front-yard landscaping.
Any changes to the meeting dates will be updated online on the SOA Board & Committees Meeting Calendar on www.somersett.org. Executive sessions and Aesthetic Guidelines Committee meetings are not open to residents other than those who are on the agenda. Communications, Facilities, Events, West Park Garden and Finance committee meetings are open to all owners and are held at The Club at Town Center. Meetings of the Board of Directors are also open to all owners via Zoom.
Meeting Agendas & Minutes
