Congratulations, and thank you, to your 2020 HOA Board members: Amy Howard, Sally Janssen, Mary Kreeger, Ken Colaizzi and Bill Kuenning! We appreciate all that you do! And THANK YOU to the TrailMark community for turning in enough proxies to exceed the 80 that were needed for a quorum at the November meeting. We would also like to thank the outgoing Board members: Michael Day and Kim Gritzmaker. Thank you for your time volunteering for the community.

Requests from The Chatfield Botanic Gardens  

Chatfield Botanic Gardens reached out to the HOA regarding landscape concerns:  

  • The Botanic Gardens has observed TrailMark residents disposing of yard waste trash over the fences onto Botanic Garden property. Doing so is considered trespassing and an actionable offense by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. Please stop this activity immediately. The HOA provides trash service weekly and you are expected to dispose yard waste during our weekly service. 

  • The Botanic Gardens has also observed that some TrailMark residents have cut down Botanic Gardens trees along the TrailMark fence line, ostensibly to improve views from TrailMark homes. Please stop this activity immediately. Cutting trees on the Botanic Gardens property is illegal and considered trespassing and destruction of property, an actionable offense by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. 

  • Finally, the Botanic Gardens asks that TrailMark homeowners take action to remove all Queen Anne’s Lace plants from their yards. This plant is a pervasive weed and by its aggressive nature makes it a threat to some of our native plants. This weed has gotten onto the Botanic Gardens property.  They ask that homeowners take action to remove these plants where you find them, either by pulling or mowing the plants. 
 
We are very fortunate to be neighbors with the Botanic Gardens. Please be good neighbors.  If you see someone doing questionable things, please report these activities to the management company at (303) 381-4960, or contact the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office at 303-980-7300. Be reminded that these calls may remain anonymous. Thank you for the cooperation in these matters.

From the DRC (Design & Review Committee) 
 
As another reminder, all exterior work done at your home requires DRC approval. Please be sure to submit the necessary paperwork when planning work on the exterior of your home. If you are unsure if approval is needed, contact the Property Manager to ask!

Bulletin Boards get face lift 
 
The monthly newsletter and other items posted to the bulletin boards in TrailMark are now easier to see, thanks to new plexiglass doors from South Suburban Parks and Recreation. These bulletin boards are located at TrailMark Park and Hogback Hill Park as an outlet for communication from the HOA and TMMD to the residents of TrailMark. If something is posted that is not officially from the HOA or TMMD, please take it down or report it to communications@trailmarkhoa.org.

Friendly Reminder about Holiday Decorations
 
All exterior holiday decorations and lights utilized as season displays must be removed and properly stored in a timely manner following the conclusion of the holiday, but, in no case later than thirty (30) days following the expiration of the holiday. (And please keep in mind that pumpkins attract unwanted critters.)
[Covenants article 3.8]
