Metropolitan District Budget Cuts: Entrance Fee for Pools Proposed

At the Nov. 13 Ken-Caryl Ranch Metropolitan District Board meeting, the Board discussed proposed changes to the 2019 Budget due to the 6G mill levy failure. The most significant change is a proposed entrance fee for resident pool access. All proposed changes are listed at the link below. The Board will continue the public hearing and adopt the budget at its Dec. 4 meeting at 7 p.m. at the Ranch House following the 6 p.m. Joint Study Session with the Master Association. Residents are encouraged to attend the meeting or submit feedback to melissad@kcranch.org.

Christmas Tree Sale

Date: Saturday, Dec. 1
Time: 8-10 a.m.
Location: Dakota Lodge

A limited number of trees will be available to Ken-Caryl residents on a first come, first served basis for the annual Christmas Tree Sale. Rangers are requesting donations (cash or check only) in exchange for the trees. The recently cut Douglas Firs and Ponderosa Pines are more "natural" in shape than trees found in Christmas tree lots and remain fresh and fragrant for the season. The removal of the small-diameter trees in the Ken-Caryl open space reduces overcrowding and eliminates ladder fuels, which can carry fire into a forest canopy. If you have any questions, contact the Rangers at 303-979-1876, ext. 170.
