Over three half days in June, six EM volunteers were out in force repairing and maintaining the Elk Meadows Perimeter Fence line.
A Fence Committee report has been filed with the BOD for the annual meeting.
Thank you to all the volunteers who worked hard on the fence line!
Thank you to all the perimeter owners who made sure their pets did not think we were intruders!

Domestic Water System Report for June 2021
All pumps, filters and electronic systems are functioning normally with the exception of the #2 well. According to Valley Pump the well pump/motor is locked up and needs to be replaced. That will happen when the well access has dried out and their truck can drive in without sinking. The average daily usage is 18,000 gallons. The average daily spring flow is 17,000 gallons. Ten lots used over 7000 gallons of water. The hill tank is 95% full.
We have received much rain, but we are still in a megadrought and need to use water wisely. Owners who have short-term renters, please remind them to be conservative with water. To see your water usage, go to elkmeadowshoa.org>owners>water report. Go to the column Usage x10 and move the decimal point one place to the right to determine your usage. Each lot is allowed 7000 gallons per month and are charged for any overage.

The report was sent to all homeowners and is now posted on the website. Go to elkmeadowshoa.org>log-in>owners>water reports>water quality reports 2020. |

According to EMHOA covenants, trash, abandoned vehicles, appliances and other debris are to be removed by the owner. Please see Sec. 814 and Sec. 815 under HOA Docs>2019 Recorded Declaration Final. There have been complaints about abandoned vehicles, appliances, piles of wood and other refuse in public sight. Please be considerate of your neighbors and remove items mentioned in Sec. 814 and Sec. 815 from view. |

Last year many dead aspens were removed, but there are still more that need to be culled. Thank you, Doug Bergh, for removing many of the dead aspens in some of the green spaces. We appreciate it and so do the surviving aspens. Doug has volunteered to remove other dead aspens on private property for the wood. If you are interested, please contact Doug at doug.bergh41@gmail.com. Anyone interested in cutting the dead aspens please contact emhoa.secretary@gmail.com.
What is happening to the aspens and how do we help? Here is some information:
