Roof Replacement Needed? 
    Many residents have experienced damage to their roof due to recent hailstorms.  If you need to replace your roof and are using the same material that was previously submitted and approved by the Architectural Review Committee with no change, that would be considered maintenance.  In this case, submittal to the ARC is not needed at this time.
    If you are unsure of the status of your existing roof, please call our office – 303-841-5305.  If we have your name, address and phone number, we can get back to you with the information we have in our files.  In some cases, insurance adjustors have estimated replacement using a lower grade of roof than was actually installed in the past and we would be happy to provide copies of approval letters in this event.  We have electronic records going back to 1999 for roof replacements.
    Approved roofs can be found on our Approved Materials List.  All changes must be submitted so that approval status can be certified and recorded.
    To submit a replacement / change to your existing roof, please provide the following information:
          * Your Name
          * Your Address
          * Roof Manufacturer
          * Style
          * Warranty
          * Color Name
    This can be sent by mail, E-mail (PineryARC@comcast.net) or fax 303-841-5444.
    Once received, our office will ascertain the status of the roof and the color selected.  You will be notified of the pre-approval status and can proceed at that point.  You will also receive an approval letter for your files.
    Please be advised that signage prior to and after installation of the roof is prohibited by Protective Covenants.
    If you have questions, please call 303-841-5305.

A Letter From the Douglas County Sheriff
Dear Douglas County Neighbor:
   As your Sheriff, I would like to inform you of certain criminal activities that are occurring throughout Douglas County.
The most common type of burglary that we are seeing in Douglas County are burglaries associated with open garage doors or doors at a residence that are not locked or secured. The suspects in these incidents targeted these homes because of convenience and opportunity.
   These types of burglaries can be deterred and even prevented by closing garage doors, even when at home. Vehicles that are parked inside of your garage or on your driveway should be locked and all valuables should be removed. We are asking residents to be our eyes and ears and report any suspicious activity immediately (303) 660-7500 for non-emergency and 911 for emergencies.
   I encourage you as residents of Douglas County to establish Neighborhood Watch blocks in your area. Programs such as this allow Douglas County citizens and Sheriff’s Office personnel to work together in partnership, thus deterring and solving crime within the county.
   For more information about Neighborhood Watch and to receive a Neighborhood Watch Start Up Packet, please contact Deputy Cocha Heyden or Deputy Ron Hanavan at (303) 660-7544 or look on our web page at www.dcsheriff.net
   The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office takes all crime in Douglas County seriously. We actively and aggressively pursue those that victimize our residents and visitors of our community. An example of our diligence is shown in an arrest that occurred in December of a suspect that was responsible for 11 burglaries throughout the county. This suspect targeted unoccupied homes.
   As your Sheriff, I strongly believe that building relationships with the community allows the Sheriff’s Office to become more effective in our commitment to building a safer stronger community.
David A. Weaver
Sheriff of Douglas County

The RV Storage Lot
   Information on the RV Storage Lot is available on the RV Storage Lot page.

Greenbelts – Please No Motorized Vehicles!
   Off-road motorized use of any open space within Douglas County is prohibited. The greenbelts in the Pinery are to be used ‘gently’ for walking and enjoying wildlife if the natural environment is to be maintained. Use of motorbikes and ATVs within these areas destroys vegetation and the enjoyment of others. Please be considerate and make sure you use these vehicles only in areas designated for such use.

Coyotes - Concern For Area Pets.
   As note to new and old residents alike, we’d like to remind you that although a lot of development is making The Pinery increasingly less remote, we must remain cognizant of the fact that small pets often fall prey to coyotes and other predators in the area. Please keep your pets indoors for their safety! Click on Pinery Wildlife for more information on Coyotes and other wildlife in the Pinery.

Douglas County Pet Ordinances:
   A leash law requires that all dogs, not on their owners’ property, to be on a leash. A barking ordinance is in effect 24 hours a day. Animal neglect is also addressed by county ordinance; all dogs must have adequate food, water and properly ventilated shelter providing protection from weather. Although not mandated, cats should also be kept in check. They are the single most responsible predator of wild birds. Click on Animal Services for more information from the Douglas County Animal Services brochure.

Address Numbers On Your Home Are Important In Emergencies.
   We see them every day and know they are there… but do we really look at them the way emergency personnel do? The address numbers we have on our home, or should have on our homes, can mean the difference between life and death and minor or major damage during emergencies. Put yourself in the shoes of the emergency crew. Can you clearly see the address? If it were night, would a spotlight find the numbers easily? For the sake of your family and your home, make sure your home’s address is clearly visible from the street.

How Many Homeowners’ Associations are in the local Pinery area?
   How many homeowners’ associations are in the Pinery? This is a very good question and the answer can become confusing. See Pinery HOA List for more information.

Call Before You Dig - Safety Tip.
   Go to "Utilities" and Call before you dig for information on the Utility Notification Center of Colorado and the no cost marking of underground utilities service. Severing power or phone lines could - in an emergency - be a matter of life or death. Digging into a natural gas or electric line is dangerous and can cause serious injury. Remember that digging without locates is against the law, and you can be held liable for any damage that occurs.
