TMMD Board of Directors Election
Four Director positions will be open for election on May 3, 2022. Three 3-year terms and one 1-year term (due to an appointment). To qualify as a director, a person must be an “eligible elector” defined as a registered voter of Colorado and either:
Director qualifications must be met at the time of the execution of the self-nomination form or letter or at the time of appointment by the Board of Directors, if filling a vacancy, and must be maintained in order to remain qualified as a Director. Property that is owned by a legal entity such as a corporation, LLC, partnership, or trust does not qualify a person as an eligible elector on the basis of property ownership. In order to run for a Director position, a self-nomination form must be filed with the Designated Election Official, Sue Blair, no earlier than January 1, 2022, nor later than the close of business on Friday, February 25, 2022. Self-Nomination and Acceptance forms are available on the District website and should be returned to the Designated Election Official's office located at the addresses below.

2022 Garage Sale Sponsorship
During the HOA Meeting on January 13, 2022, the Board announced that Lori Ross has been awarded the TrailMark Garage Sale sponsorship for 2022. To be fair, the HOA Board developed an application process and offered everyone the opportunity to apply. Applications and plans were due to the Board by January 1st. Lori Ross’ plan was unanimously approved by the Board and offers some refreshing ideas to include all of TrailMark. The garage sale is scheduled for Friday and Saturday, June 3rd and 4th. Please watch for more details from Lori Ross in the months to come. We will post information that Lori gives us on the TrailMark website. Congratulations to Lori Ross for executing an exciting plan for TrailMark! Sincerely, The TrailMark HOA Board of Directors 
CAC Committee takes down Holiday Decorations
On Sunday, January 9th, the Common Area Committee (CAC) met at the front entrance at 10 a.m. to remove all of our holiday decorations. Approximately seven volunteers came out in the chilly January weather and removed the wreaths, holly and bows. All of the decorations are stored away until the next holiday season. Our HOA Board wishes to thank all of the volunteers on the CAC who decorated and took down the decorations this holiday season. It was beautiful as always! The Common Area Committee always strives to make our front entrance look festive and welcoming. All of TrailMark is grateful for your endeavors. Thank you, The TrailMark HOA Board of Directors A Letter from the President about TrailMark's Fire Evacuation Plan
January 10, 2022
Dear TrailMark Residents, The recent fires in Superior and Louisville were devastating for all of us to see and witness. As you know, TrailMark is surrounded by open space all around us - and many neighbors and residents have been wondering what we would do if this situation were to happen here in TrailMark. On January 3rd, I contacted Einar Jensen, the Risk Reduction Specialist for South Metro Fire Rescue, and asked him if he could assist our neighborhood in coming up with a fire mitigation plan for TrailMark. Einar was thrilled that our HOA asked for such a plan. Today, Einar has given us his 12-page TrailMark Mitigation Plan. Our HOA will post this TrailMark mitigation plan on our website as a resource. I have also included a link for you to click and print the 12-page document that Einar has outlined for TrailMark’s safety. In addition to reading and reviewing Einar’s TrailMark mitigation plan, Einar strongly suggests that each homeowner register for Jefferson County’s reverse emergency notifications system called Code Red. You can use this link to opt in and register for emergency updates -www.jeffco.us/473/Emergency-Notifications I have invited Einar Jensen to attend our HOA Zoom meeting on Thursday, January 13th at 7:00 p.m. so that he can outline the highlights of this very important safety document. Please join our meeting this Thursday, January 13th to hear Einar’s comments. On behalf of our entire HOA Board, we value your safety and want to do everything in our capacity to link up our residents with the South Metro Fire Department so that we can keep each of our homes and families as safe as possible. Thank you, Ken Colaizzi, President TrailMark HOA Littleton, CO 80127 president@trailmarkhoa.org https://www.trailmark.org
