Stage 2 Fire Restrictions are now in effect for the Town of Carbondale and surrounding areas due to increased fire danger. These restrictions prohibit activities that could spark a wildfire and are intended to help protect our community, public lands, and emergency responders.

To help protect local water supplies during dry summer conditions, the Town of Carbondale has implemented water restrictions effective immediately.

Residents of River Valley Ranch, who primarily use ditch water for irrigation, are encouraged to conserve water and prepare for potential supply limitations later this summer. 

An important reminder, RVR and the golf course share the same water system, and our water agreement is designed to ensure adequate water pressure at all times. Under this agreement, RVR homeowners may irrigate between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., while the golf course waters between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.

RVR residents can help conserve water by:

The slide will be closed on Thursday, July 9, due to staffing constraints. Thank you for your understanding.

Regular summer schedule:

Snack Bar: Open daily from 11 a.m.–6 p.m.

Lifeguards & Slide: Available Tuesdays–Sundays, 11 a.m.–6 p.m.

Mondays: No lifeguards on duty and the slide will remain closed

As a kind reminder, please take a moment to review pool etiquette and safety reminders so we can help keep the pool safe, fun, and welcoming for everyone all summer long.

Following the call for candidates, three Statements of Interest were received from:

As the number of candidates equals the number of open positions, the election is uncontested and will not be held. In accordance with the RVRMA Policy for Board of Directors Elections, the candidates will be elected by acclamation.

Alexander “Z” Hoffman, Ben Johnston, and Todd Richmond will be installed to the RVRMA Executive Board at the upcoming July Board meeting.

Carl Hostetter has chosen not to seek another term. We sincerely thank him for his years of dedicated service and his many important contributions to the Board.

At the May 27, 2026 Board of Directors meeting, the Board approved moving forward with the proposed Vacant Lot Improvement Policy for community review. In accordance with the RVR’s Policy Adoption Process, the draft policy will be posted for a minimum 30-day community feedback period before returning to the Board for final consideration and vote.
