Pike Update

We continue to work on pike removal from our lake. So far our community efforts have led to the removal of approximately 58 of these fish eating machines. We will continue our "Pike for Cash" program through the winter. Keep up the fight and "Happy Fishing"

IMPORTANT FIRE DANGER: DEAD TREES & HOMEOWNER ACTION

You have all received an email informing you of removing dead, diseased or downed trees, shrubs and scrub from your property by September l5, 2022. This was sent before Slash and Trash to encourage you to mitigate your property and help our whole community with fire danger. 

In early August volunteer homeowners reviewed all properties and listed those with dead, diseased or downed trees, shrub, or scrub. The volunteers could not enter private property so they only could view a lot from the road and as such their count could be slightly off. Almost half of our homeowners had trees that needed removal. 

To date, many owners have begun taking out trees, shrubs and scrub but MANY have not and Sept. l5 deadline is looming. In compliance with HB 22-1137, a new Colorado law that establishes procedures for HOA violations, here is what will happen after the deadline:

• Your property will be re-reviewed and if trees have not been removed you will receive official Notice of the Violation with the notice of a $500 fine. 
• The official Notice will be sent through email/Appfolio and if you do not acknowledge receipt of the Notice, a Notice will be posted on your property and a letter send certified mail, return receipt requested.
• Upon receiving Notice, you will have 30 days to remove the dead, diseased or downed trees, shrubs or slash from your property. 
• If you do not remove them within 30 days, the $500 fine will become due unless you set a dispute hearing.

The Battle Of The Taste Buds Is Back!

Our Trash Compactor Has An Upgrade!

Prior to this upgrade, we have relied on clubhouse staff and maintenance personnel to run the rammer, enabling more room for trash to be safely contained away from wildlife. With our growing numbers in our community, and especially during the summer and holiday months this has continued to be problematic. It's not unusual for staff to have to tend the trash 15 - 20 times in the course of a few hours, not to mention the nonworking hours when the trash needs attention.

 The automatic control will allow our staff a lot more time to tend to their maintenance and clubhouse duties, without worrying about trash overflow, and eliminate the hazards of trash bags left on the ground when drop in is full. 

We contiunue to monitor it's functioning and will make necessary adjustments as needed.

Get prepared, then...Let it snow!

It's just about that season. If you need contract snow removal for your driveway, we have provided the contacts for contractors who have plowed our neighborhood in past years and will continue this season.

Boat Removal Is

Remember to remove your watercraft from the lake shore and all boat racks must be cleared prior to 11/01/22.    Any vessels remaining lakeside beyond that date will be removed by CLCC personnel. 

Did you know?

Besides taking a dip in the pool, or a soak in the hot tub, our clubhouse has books, games, and puzzles to take out on loan. Ask our staff next time you stop by. We're still on the honor system, just have your homeowner pass handy.
