Upcoming road closure / fire mitigation work
**update as of Aug 2nd***
This is going to be an inconvenience and we sincerely apologize. Tollgate Canyon Road will remain closed overnight. In an emergency it is passable. But there is simply too much brush on the road and the Alpine crew was looking at 10:00 PM or later to finish. That last mile or less past Rocky Point has several choke points not suitable for two lane traffic. So, please respect the closure. It will wrap up tomorrow, hopefully by noon. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. That said, Alpine’s crew is a pretty amazing team. They are doing significantly more work than we are capable of doing.
This coming Tuesday August 2 and Wednesday August 3, Alpine Forestry will have Tollgate Canyon Road closed from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.
The crew will be doing the roadside fuel reduction/fire mitigation work that the PMRHOA Board hired them to do.
The detour is to take Forest Meadow Road to Oil Well Road and then reconnect with Tollgate Canyon Road at the end of Oil Well.
We appreciate your cooperation in making our community safe.

-Notice of prosoded rule change for maximum size - Amendment
July 30, 2022
NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULE CHANGE & COMMUNITY COMMENT PERIOD
AMENDMENT to recently approved Size Guideline 4.4
Dear Owners:
The HOA Board is proposing an Amendment to Architectural Guideline 4.4 - Size. This Amendment follows the Board's July 19, 2022 passage of construction size limits that are based on lot size.
Here is the proposed Amendment:
“All existing lot owners, as of July 19, 2022, are exempt from the maximum allowable square footage restrictions for a period of seven years. The exemption shall terminate upon the earlier of seven years or a transfer of title for value, whichever comes first.”
Why propose this Amendment?
Your Board's goal is to make decisions that represent the interests of the community as broadly as possible. During the previous public comment period from June 17, 2022 through July 18, 2022, we received 157 responses from the community. Of these responses, 57.3% were in favor of the rule change, 39.5% were opposed to it or would have changed the wording of the proposal, and 3.2% were indifferent to the proposed rule. This proposed Amendment is intended to acknowledge and respect the positions of the 39.5% who are opposed to the enacted construction size limits. It represents a middle ground that we hope bridges these differences of opinion.
What follows is a single-page for you to indicate whether or not you are in favor of the proposed Amendment. You may also use this form to provide written comments to the Board.
This form will stop accepting comments at 12:00 Noon on Tuesday, August 16, 2022. You will have another opportunity to comment at the August 16, 2022, Board meeting. The Board's vote on the proposed rule change is tentatively scheduled for August 16, 2022.
We welcome your feedback! You may provide written comments HERE
