9/5/2024-HYDRANT FLUSHING

HYDRANT FLUSHING NOTICE

The Steamboat II Metropolitan District will be flushing hydrants September 6th & 9th, 2024. The annual flushing of the fire hydrants removes minerals and sediment that build up over time and ensures that all fire hydrants are in good working order.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

During or after flushing, while unlikely, there could be sediment in the tap water in your home. This is normal and it is not harmful. Flush the cold water through your faucet until the water is clear.

A decrease in your water pressure is normal while the hydrants are being flushed. This is just a temporary inconvenience, and the water pressure will restore when we are done flushing.

8/19/24-mandatory irrigation shutdown 9/15/24

The Fish Creek Water Treatment Plant will be offline beginning September 16, 2024 so they can complete necessary improvements. Because the Steamboat II Metropolitan District purchases our water from the City of Steamboat and this is our primary source of water, we need to aid in their attempts to conserve water. Please have your irrigation shut down no later than September 15^th.

6/26/24-weed spraying / no dumping / HP lights

Last week our contractor sprayed weeds within the District, as we are obligated to do. Unfortunately, we didn’t have advanced notice from them on when they would be spraying, and we were not able to properly notify you. We have asked our contractor to give us more warning in the future and to put up more signage within the District.

We have noticed an increase in the dumping of private property at the entrance of Steamboat II and urge our residents to refrain from doing so. We try so hard to keep everything looking nice. If you have an item you wish to giveaway, please put it on your own property and dispose/recycle it if it’s not claimed.

The lights at the entrance of Heritage Park are inoperative, due to the construction. The excavator is working to get them repaired, and we expect they’ll be functional again within the next week.

6/17/2024-permanent watering schedule

This is a reminder that we have adopted permanent watering restrictions which are as follows:

No outdoor watering between 10AM – 6PM

6/4/2024-WELLS

The wells are running and will be for most of the year, but predominantly during June, July and August as we need to supplement during the irrigation season.
