Roxborough Park Foundation Maintenance

Following is the general policy used to determine snow removal. However, the type of snow, water content and direction could require modifications. In general, the policy for snow removal is as follows:

Maintenance phones will either be forwarded to the office, or have a frequently updated informational recording. The maintenance phone will not accept messages during storms. Maintenance staff will each be dispatched to the four different areas of the park, which are:

• The entrance of Roxborough Park Foundation to the Fairway Vistas areas,
  
  
• Roxborough Park North which includes Sleeping Bear, Hawks Nest, and Puma Trail areas,
  
  
• South which includes Condor Run to Thunder Run areas,
  
  
• Snow Cloud Trail, Raspberry Run, Rain Dance Trail, and Willow Broom Trail.
  

Snow removal priorities are as follows:

• Priority 1: Emergencies have first priority. Emergencies are those calls generated upon notification from the Douglas County Sheriff Department’s 911 system to Roxborough Park Foundation staff. Emergencies will take precedence at all times.
  
  

• Priority 2: Roxborough Drive and Roxborough Drive North will be kept open.
  
  

• Priority 3: Priority will be given to streets with the most population and easiest accessibility.
  
  

• Priority 4: Snow will be partially removed on side streets to allow West Metro partial access and to allow people egress by walking part way out in case of emergency.
  
  

• Priority 5: Cul-de-sacs.
  
  

• Priority 6: Streets with illegally parked vehicles will be plowed after vehicle is either towed or moved.

In addition,

• Mail pods will be cleared and take precedence upon notification from the federal post office that delivery will again resume over priorities two, three, five, and six.
  
  
• Individual driveways will not be plowed.
  
  
• Maintenance staff or contractors will not clear driveway blockage that occurs with snow clearing. Contracted loader drivers as part of the process may block driveways homeowners have possibly already cleared. The homeowner is responsible to clear their driveway should that occur. Unfortunately this is a part of the normal snow removal process.
  
  
• The Foundation cannot provide a shuttle service that is available to take the residents from the entry building to their homes.
  
  
• Remember Foundation regulations state that vehicles are not allowed to park in the streets. The Foundation will not hesitate to tow any vehicles that are parked in the streets.

Finally, although the maintenance supervisor gives maps and directs the contractors to the streets, contractors are independent and may perform their work differently.

Homeowners should keep in mind that some people contract private snow removal for their driveways on an individual basis. If a contractor is clearing a driveway, it is the homeowner who made that arrangement, and is responsible for payment, not the Foundation.
