Pumps will be Shut Off Wednesday 10/11/2023

 


You've seen the pink signs. It is that time of year to shut the irrigation down. The pumps will turn off Wednesday and we will be winterizing the Main Lines soon. To keep the costs of winterizing down we will need you to shut your Main Valves Wednesday, Thursday or Friday 10/14 at the latest. If you are a renter, please contact your management company. Individual homeowners can schedule their winterization for their personal sprinkler systems after October 16. Thank you for another fantastic irrigation season!

It is also past time to park your recreational vehicles and trailers behind a six-foot privacy fence or to have it relocated to an off-site storage facility. The Governing Documents for the subdivision state trailers and recreational vehicles (campers, boats, etc.) must be behind a privacy fence at all times, but the Board agreed years ago to allow for relaxation of this rule for a period of time from Memorial Day to Labor Day, as long as members were kind enough to not take advantage of the agreement. Trailers are never allowed to be parked on City streets for more than a twelve-hour loading/unloading period, per Fruita City Ordinance. We will ask Fruita PD to tag any vehicles parked on the street for more than 12 hours.

Pumps Will Be On @ Midnight 04/24/2025

For those of you that followed directions, THANK YOU!  We have completed the pressure test and common area checks. All leaks have been located and isolated for repair. We are now comfortable letting the system run unattended. Should you discover a leak, please attempt to isolate with your Main Valve. If the Main Valve has failed or the break cannot be isolated, please do call 970-639-4061. Once we get all of the sprinklers located along the back trail we will bring in a contractor to lay down additional gravel on the trail now that we are confident it will no longer be washed away. Do stick to the schedule. We have 183 residences with equal time allotments and enough water and pressure to accommodate everyone if everyone follows the watering schedule. The schedule is available on the website or can be emailed to you.

Happy Autumn! - 2025

Image
Some of you have been asking about personal sprinkler system blow-outs (winterization). We are happy to share the landscaping contractor's information with you. Schedule now.  Also a few other Autumn things to take into consideration: Boats, trailers, campers, ATVs cannot be parked in your driveway. According to the covenants they must be in a garage or behind a six-foot fence at all times. Years ago the Board waived this covenant from Memorial Day to Labor Day. It is now time to remove your toys, park them in the garage or get them behind the fence. If the Board finds that neighbors do not comply, the summertime waiver will be removed. Speaking of trailers, per the City of Fruita there is an ordinance against parking trailers on City streets for more than a twelve (12) hour loading/unloading period. Feel free to contact dispatch at 970-242-6707 to report complaints: the Board will not do this for you. Also please do not park vehicles directly in front of mailboxes. Some neighbors ...

Saturday April 19, 2025 - Pumps are Off

Good morning! We had to shut down the pumps. A neighbor had a break that cannot be isolated. This is perfectly normal this time of year as neighbors discover breaks that occurred over the winter. The repair will be made and we will pressure test the system again. Please leave your Main Valve closed. Thank you!
