Five volunteer directors

Third Wednesday, 5 p.m., Mail Building.

Residents are welcome. For 2026 the board adopted a calendar with no meeting in March, May, July, or December. An older blurb on the board page only mentions July and December — the February e-news is the schedule they voted.

How the district started

Organized July 11, 1979 to build and run streets, water, and sewer under Colorado Title 32. An election on September 8, 1981 added open space, trails, and recreation. Five resident directors, similar open-meeting rules to other local governments. Budgets are adopted after a public hearing, on the state’s calendar, not whenever an HOA board feels like it.
