Forestry Work for Tincup/Beacon Hill to Begin in August

In 2010, the Ken-Caryl Ranch Master Association Board of Directors approved the Forest Stewardship Plan that calls for thinning of overgrown forests and shrub lands to improve overall forest health and remove excessive wildfire fuels. Since 2010, approximately 50 percent of the areas designated for management have been completed. The work this season, which will begin in late August, will complete most of the projects listed in the plan. The areas designated for treatment are located north and west of the Manor House picnic shelter. There will be some temporary trail closures in the area. See our News page for details of the forestry project and a map of the area.

Vandalism and Fireworks

There have been numerous reports from residents regarding vandalism and illegal fireworks in the area. Whether it's egged cars, fireworks in the middle of the night, broken bottles on the street, or numerous other issues, we urge residents to report the activity to the Jeffco Sheriff at 303-277-0211. Also, the glass fronts of the vending machines at the Community Center were smashed on Thursday. Due to this vandalism, the machines will be removed for the remainder of the year. Issues like this cost the taxpayers money, and they must be stopped. If you have any information about the incident, please contact Darrell Windes at 303-979-1876, ext. 114, or darrellw@kcranch.org.
