Thursday, June 20th
5:30-8:00 pm S. Field Way near TrailMark Park A variety of savory and sweet food trucks will be joining our community for purchase. Truck selections will vary and are subject to change. Please bring a picnic blanket or chairs, and your appetite! Future dates: July 18th August 1st August 15th Community Association Governing Documents
When a home is purchased in homeowner and condominium associations, they contractually agree to become part of an association with their fellow owners, all of whom are bound by the association’s governing documents. Some of these documents are filed with the appropriate state or local government agency and can only be altered through a prescribed process. Read the full article here. This is a brief explanation of what the governing documents are, what they contain, and how they may be changed. For more information, or to see these documents in their entirety, please visit https://www.trailmark.org/hoa-documents-amp-forms.html.

Recently, there have been many questions about what is necessary in order for trash to be taken away. If you refer to the communication sent to the community last year, homeowners are no longer allowed to place trash bags on the side of their container. All trash must be inside the container with the lid securely closed. Any large items or overflow must be coordinated with Alpine directly by calling, (303) 744-9881. Please note that homeowners are responsible for any overflow charges from Alpine. If your container has been damaged, or you would like a new one, please call Alpine directly and they will have one delivered to you. The recycling process has not changed. There is a separate truck that will come through the neighborhood for recycling. Please ensure that your recycling container is out to the curb and covered in a way that does not allow the refuse to be blown away. Plastic bags of any kind are not allowed. The bags are not recyclable and will contaminate other items during the recycling process. If you have a question about whether or not something is recyclable, please call Alpine Waste and Recycling. Clarification from CRS: In April of 2018, changes were made to how trash was picked up. At that time, homeowners were still allowed to place bags outside of the cans. Now that the community has had some time to adjust to the new system, Alpine has requested that bags no longer be placed outside of the cans. This will keep drivers from having to exit their vehicles to pick up bags, and therefore, show the increased efficiency promised by these side-loading trucks. Any overflow or extra bags will have to be coordinated with Alpine Waste by the homeowner. The TrailMark HOA has been moving towards this goal since the new trucks were bought. This is simply the latest step in increasing efficiency and the overall cleanliness of the community. Posted June 1, 2019; Updated June 3, 2019  Photo by Darcy Hickman
4th of July Bike Parade
Thursday, July 4th 9:00 am TrailMark Park Dress up your bikes, wagons and scooters for the Annual TrailMark July 4th Bike Parade! Be sure to stay afterward and enjoy the fun at TrailMark Park (playground) including popsicles, face painting, bounce houses, plus coffee and donuts for the adults! Volunteers Needed - Please contact the social committee at social@trailmarkhoa.org. From the Management Company (CRS)
Hello TrailMark! The Board will be holding a workshop session after the next HOA meeting on May 9th to explain the purpose of each governing document, as well as how to change them. All residents are welcome to attend. We will be discussing the hierarchy of the governing documents, what they address, and how they may be amended. We will also have a brief Q&A session for any unanswered questions during the workshop. Hope to see you there! It is once again time to start up the irrigation systems. The Board has asked homeowners to keep an eye out for leaking irrigation in the common areas. If you do see a leak, please email CRS and inform them of the situation. If it is a large leak or break in the line, please call CRS immediately and they will contact Denver Water. Community Resource Services – akelly@crsofcolorado.com (303) 381-4960 There has been some concern about how to handle trash in the neighborhood. Please note that all trash containers must be covered, and secured in a way that does not allow the wind or weather to blow the trash away. Alpine Waste and Recycling is the contracted company for trash removal. The trash trucks operate in the neighborhood between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm. Please ensure that your trash is put out to the curb on the morning of pick up before 7 am. If your trash was put out but missed, you may call for an extra pickup.

TMMD Update
The aeration system has been turned back on to Fairview Reservoirs #1 and #2. This really helps the water quality, and the plants and fish. Remember that fishermen should not wade into the reservoirs and we would really appreciate that they take their trash, broken lines, hooks, etc. with them when they leave the area. It would be great if they would pick up whatever trash they find to keep the area beautiful. Thank you. The fence project is really looking good. We have had many positive comments on the fence appearance, and on the professionalism of the Split Rail crews that are working on the fence. It is on track to be completed around June 3rd, and I am sure we can all enjoy the fresh appearance and sturdiness of the new fencing. Just a reminder that the fence is community property and should be respected accordingly, as mentioned in the article on the first page of this newsletter. Posted May 1, 2019 Notes from the Common Area Committee
Have you noticed the purple blossoms on the north at our TrailMark entrance? I am sure that you will continue to enjoy this area as the plants grow out this spring. We will begin work soon on the next median (the one west of the fire station) along TrailMark Parkway. Have you taken the opportunity to hike the Black Bear Trail, which goes up the hogback and connects to Deer Creek Trails? It is closed for hiking during raptor breeding season, which is now until August. However, if you go to the Southwest corner of TrailMark, notice the two-track road going up to the beginning of Black Bear Trail as it intersects Two Brands Trail. Many people have commented on enjoying this median connector trail to Two Brands. There are plans by Jeffco to restore the natural environment and get rid of this trail if you read the sign that was posted. IF you enjoy this connector, please contact Jason Crum at Jeffco Open Space. His email address is: jcrum@co.jefferson.co.us. We would like to see this become a permanent trail with a name, and a sign and eventually shown on the maps of Hildebrand Ranch along with the distances. Posted May 1, 2019 
Building? Planting? Digging?
Call first. Spring is a great time for outdoor home projects. The HOA and DRC remind you that there are miles of buried utilities beneath the surface that are vital to everyday living, like water, electricity and natural gas. Any type of digging requires a call. Building a deck? Planting a tree? Installing a fence or other landscaping projects? Please, remember to call 811 before you trench or dig. Jeffco's Building Safety Division is entrusted with achieving compliance with applicable state laws and adopted building codes in regards to building design and construction within unincorporated Jefferson County.
