Pine Beetles

Driving through parts of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado you notice areas where pine trees are dead because of the Pine Beetle.  These Pine Beetles not only can effect the pine trees in the mountains, they can also kill the trees located on the plains, along the Palmer Divide, and elsewhere in Colorado.  Because the Forest Park community is so named because of the pine trees, the owners have been very diligent in ensuring that Pine Beetle concerns are addressed as quickly as possible. 

For those of you that would like to know more about the Pine Beetle and how to protect your trees and your community, please visit the Colorado State University Extension web site on the Mountain Pine Beetle for more details.  This is a very informative site that explains the life cycle, the signs to watch for, and how to prevent or limit the spread of the Pine Beetle.

Help the Forest Park Homeowners keep the beautiful Pine Trees that led to it's name.

Roads Within Forest Park HOA

Below is a letter from Al Mostacciuolo, the President of the Forest Park HOA, to one of the owners within the community.  It is a question that many people ask about the roads throughout the community and very worth of sharing.
"Thank you for your email concerning the roads conditions on Forest Park Drive. I know Julie Profitt, VP of the HOA Board has been in contact with you regarding this subject, but I wanted to personally respond.
As you know road grating is serviced by Elbert County. You mentioned in a previous email that you had discussed this with Ric at Roads and Bridges and that we are on the radar, which is excellent. 
This has been an issue in the past as well and discussed by previous boards. Past investigations noted that it is not feasible for the Homeowners Association to provide grating services. 
I will request at the next HOA board meeting that we put this subject in the next newsletter, with an encouragement to residents to call the county when roads conditions deteriorate, along with supplying them phone numbers, etc.
Again I thank you for bringing us your concerns regarding the roads. "
To help the community's roads, please contact the Elbert County Road and Bridge Department when you have concerns about the roads throughout the community.  Their contact information is as follows:
  • Phone number for the district is 303-621-3154
  • Phone number for Ric Manyik, Director for the Elizabeth Area is 303-621-3157
  • Fax number for Ric Manyik, Director for the Elizabeth Area is 303-621-3159
  • To visit the web site for the Road and Bridge Department of Elbert County Colorado and learn more about this department, priorities, and general road information for Elbert County, click here.
