We need your Ballot!

Ballots for the Board of Directors election have been mailed out to all owners at their address of record with the HOA.

Ballots must be received at the HOA office no later than the close of business (5:00 PM) on October 16. If you plan to mail your ballot, please be sure to allow a few days for the post office to deliver by this date. After the Talley Committee counts the ballots, the election results are certified, and the results will be posted on this web site until December 7. If you lose or do not receive your ballot, you may email the HOA office for a replacement ballot.

The HOA has again contracted with the Colorado State Forest Service to have Forest Service experts conduct a forest health inspection of the pine trees on approximately 350 acres of King’s Deer properties and identify any trees have been infested by mountain pine beetle, IPS beetle, mistletoe, and other hazard trees. The Association is paying for this inspection as a service that benefits the entire community. The Forest Service will conduct a lot by lot inspection of the forested areas South of King’s Deer Point, West of Roller Coaster Road and North of Highway 105. We request that your pets be kept confined during the inspection. The trees on these properties will be inspected on September 25, 2023, with September 27 as an alternate date in case the weather doesn’t cooperate. Your presence during the inspection is not required. A letter was sent by US mail to all property owners within the inspection area. 

For more information, see the Colorado State University Fact Sheets on the Ips Beetles and  Mountain Pine Beetles.

We have confirmation from the El Paso County Department of Public Works (DPW) that Royal Troon Drive, from Kings Deer Pt to County Line Rd will be resurfaced this paving season. The project will involve a complete rehabilitation and new paving due to soil conditions. DPW is working with the contractor for the proper pavement subgrade design and working to get this scheduled, but we do not have a firm date set. Door hangers and message boards should be displayed at least two weeks in advance of the project start. We will provide additional information as it becomes available to us.
-Kings Deer Board of Directors

On 8/15/2023 the Board of Directors approved an updated Design Standards policy.  The policy was revised with several changes including definition of ancillary building for use as a guest house, removing the requirement for HOA approval of tree and shrub planting (owners must still comply with the Covenants), and general cleanup within the document. The new changes also includes verbiage and pre-approved plans for front yard landscaping in compliance with the new Colorado law SB 23-178. Please visit the Library>Governance Documents on this website to locate the revised Design Standards.
