Where do my assessments/dues go? The short answer is that they go to three different areas. The first is for daily operating expenses. These include common area maintenance, management, snow removal, and pool upkeep. The second major section is for the monthly bills that are covered by the association, including the utilities: water, sewer, trash pickup, power for the lighting & sprinklers, and landscaping. The individual items have been listed in several newsletters. The third section is the reserve account. This is the "saving account" that is used for expensive and long term repair and replacement projects such as replacements and repairs for roofs, fencing, decks, parking lot as well as building painting.
(back to the top)Can I pay my dues online? Yes. Go to the CMS Payment Page and select Cobblestone Village. (Be careful, CMS also has Cobblestone Crossing) There are two options. You make a one time ACH payment or use a credit card. There is a charge to use this service, $5 for a check and a percentage for a credit card.
(back to the top)Are there any regularly scheduled meetings? Currently, the only regularly scheduled meetings are for the monthly board meeting and the Annual Homeowners' meeting. Starting in October 2010, the monthly board meetings will be held on the second Monday of each month at the CMS Office - 1224 Wadsworth Blvd in Lakewood at 6:30 PM. Please check the Events Calendar Page to Verify. The HOA Annual Homeowners' Meeting is usually held on a Saturday late in August in the greenbelt area next to the pool. Other meeting may include Neighborhood Watch Meetings, and meetings of other committees. See the calendar page for additional information and updates.
(back to the top)What is our trash pickup day? Our weekly trash pickup day is Wednesday. Trash is to be placed out after 6 PM Tuesday and any trash cans are to be removed from the street and sidewalk area by Wednesday evening. Trash cans ARE to be stored inside your home or in your patio area. Trash cans ARE NOT to be stored by your front porch, beside your building or behind bushes.
(back to the top)Will the trash company pickup a large item? Our trash removal company will pick up large items for an additional fee. Please contact Alpine Waste & Recycling at 303-744-9881 or fill out the Get Quote Form and they will contact you. Please do not just leave these items out for the trash pickup - thanks!!
(back to the top)Do we have curb side recycling? Our trash removal company picks up recyclable items in container(s) marked "Recycling" every other week. The first recycling date this year is 01-05-2011. See recycling information for materials that can be recycled. They also have recycling containers available. For information on containers, see recycling containers
(back to the top)Who is responsible for the tree trimming? The HOA (board) is responsible for any and all tree and bush trimming. If a resident feels a tree needs to be trimmed, that resident needs to contact the board and our property manager. You can use the link on the right to make this contact. If any trimming is necessary, the board will contact appropriately qualified contractors. Please do NOT do any trimming yourself. Email Cobblestone Board and our Property Manager
(back to the top)Who is responsible for cleaning the gutters? The HOA (board) is responsible for cleaning the (rain) gutters on the buildings. If a resident feels a the gutters on their home needs to be cleaned or the downspouts are having problems, that resident needs to contact the board and our property manager. You can use the link on the right to make this contact. Gutter cleaning is usually done twice a year usually in May and November. If you notice any problems with the downspouts, please contact our management company. Email Cobblestone Board and our Property Manager
(back to the top)Can I use a satallite dish instead of cable for TV reception? Residents can
choose to have a small satellite dish instead of cable, however, an ARC form must be submitted before
installing such a dish. Howeowners are responsible for any damage to the roof or siding of the
buildings. If any maintenance to the buildings or roof is necessary, the resident is responsible
to remove and replace the disk. This responsibility continues to the current (and new) homeowner
even if the unit is sold. Please contact the board or our property manager if you have any questions.
Note: This does not apply to the older larger satellite dishes but only the newer smaller dishes
When is the fall cleanup of leaves? The annual fall cleanup of leaves is usually scheduled for mid to late November. The fall cleanup does NOT occur until most of the leaves have fallen out of the trees, so the process doesn't need to be repeated again later. We may have a partial clean up earlier but not always.
(back to the top)My mortgage company has changed. Who do I call to send them the information? When your mortgage company changes, they usually send out a letter asking about your insurance coverage. AFTER you receive this letter, call Peliton Insurance at 303-771-1800 and ask for Amber Collins. You can also fax the request to her at 303-290-0884. You will need the name and fax number for your new mortgage company so they can be sent the coverage information.
(back to the top)Where can I park my RV or camping/boat trailer? According to our covenants, recreational vehicles and trailers can only be parked within Cobblestone Village while being prepared before being used or unloaded after being used. This is usually understood to mean a short period of time each way and not for days or weeks at a time. We suggest you try one of the local storage lots to store your RV or trailer when not being used. RVs and trailers are subject to the same restrictions as any other vehicles in Cobblestone Village.
(back to the top)When is our pool open? The swimming pool normally opens for the season on Memorial Day weekend and closes for the season at the end of the Labor Day weekend. The hours of daily operation are on the Pool page and will be updated before the pool opens if they change. Please see the Pool page for rules and other updates.
