Home Construction When building a house in an at-risk fire area, there are important things to consider. The choice of design and materials will affect fire behavior should it happen. Colorado State Forest Service's Site Design & Building Materials Guide Click here to view more information about Firewise Construction. Defensible Space Valley of Winter Park is, by definition, within an Ember Zone. It is imperative when beginning your design process that you know your home's HIZ (Home Ignition Zone) and how to create your home's Defensible Space zones. Click here to learn more about defensible space and HIZ. Maintenance Continued lot maintenance helps mitigate the risk, and is a must for proper prevention.

More Coloradans than ever live in an area that is at high risk for wildfire. Here are some facts that we hope will inform our residents about their safety. Wildland Urban Interface Here in the VWP we live in what is called the wildland urban interface or WUI. We live in a beautiful forest and get to see pronghorn sheep, elk and moose, but that comes with extra personal responsibility. It is concerning that megafires (fires that burn over 100,000 acres) are no longer novel in Colorado. A combination of climate change, drought, less precipitation and fierce winds are the causes of our increased wildfire risk. We take widlfires & their prevention seriously! Recent 2020 Fires The total loss from 2 major fires in Grand County (both within 10 miles of VWP) in 2020 alone were approximately over 210,000 acres and where still burning out of control as late that year as November 1. The East Troublesome fire spread over 100,000 acres in a single night, at a rate of over 6,000 acres per hour, which was over 100 acres per minute and more than 75mph. 366 homes and 2 human lives were lost in that fire alone. TAKE IT SERIOUSLY !! Live, walk, tow, build, landscape, mitigate, thin, chainsaw and burn with both wildfires and your neighbors in mind. Wind and dry conditions are terrible to start fires in. If you're concerned about what you see, just call the Grand County police and let them respond then call the fire department if necessary. Don't think twice or feel bad... your neighbors in the county thank you! Wildfire Facts

The Owner Directory The Owner Directory is an Opt-Out listing of owner names, email addresses and mobile phone numbers. The directory is intended to help the community know how to contact one another for non urgent or non community-wide social matters. We have Urgent Messaging and Social Media tools outlined in the Community Links / Communications section of the website. The Owner Directory shouldn't be used to send mass emails to the community (as the Social Page is there for that) nor to sent individual complaints about other owners in the community or the community as a whole. Regular HOA and Water District meetings are where to voice concerns verbally, in chat windows and via the email addresses for the HOA's Board of Directors and Water District. So please refrain from use such as that or we'll have to reconsider posting it. The Owner Directory is here , but it is password protected. Please join the Urgent Messaging WhatsApp group or send an Email to Board@ValleyAtWinterPark.org to get the current password (as it will be changed occasionally).

Communications There are many reasons we need to communicate with one another, and even more options to do so. Planning a neighborhood get together, spreading word about things, notifying people about dangerous situations or wildlife, posting photos of the community or possible water-related issues. We have elected to use a closed WhatsApp group for threatening situations ("hey, I'm burning slash, my house isn't on fire" or "hey, warning that we spotted a mountain lion this morning"), a FaceBook group for non-emergency messages ("come on over for our party next Friday at 6pm" or "check out this cool picture") and even a Community Directory in case you need to reach folks on a more personal matter. Below are links to each communications option. Urgent Comms This WhatsApp Group is to Message the Community due to any threatening situations. Social Comms Be Firewise - Be Aware.

Home & Lot Owners After purchasing your land, there are mandatory VWP HOA requirements to keep your lot in order. Regular maintenance of removing hazardous fuels from your land (sick, dead and clustered trees as well as junipers) will reduce how hot a fire will burn and how quickly it may spread. Even though you are unsure as to where your house will be placed on your lot, you can still mitigate the fire potential on your land, and get to know what wildflowers and bushes grow on your lot and where they shouldn't grow and be planted (like next to structures and decks). Below are 9 Links to learn more Lot Maintenance Click here to view the HOA's Lot Maintenance Policy for slash piles and the updated HOA letter with further guidelines you're asked to follow.
