Dear PTMD Residents,
We wanted to provide the community an update regarding the use of parks, open space, trail system and playgrounds within Poudre Tech Metropolitan District and Water Valley Metropolitan District Nos. 1 & 2 (the "Community") in light of the state-wide Stay-at-Home order. On March 25, 2020, Governor Polis issued an Executive Order requiring all residents of the State of Colorado to stay-at-home to minimize the spread and impact of COVID-19. The Executive Order mandates that all individuals stay in their place of residence except for certain essential activities. On March 26, the Colorado Department of Health and Environment (CDPHE) issued its Updated Public Health Order 20-24 (the Public Health Order) implementing the Executive Order.
The Public Health Order states that parks and other public outdoor spaces within the State of Colorado will remain open for activities such as walking, running, hiking, biking, and other similar activities. However, amenities such as playgrounds, restrooms, basketball courts, tennis courts, picnic areas, etc. will be closed. Those using parks and open-space must adhere to certain rules outlined in the Order.
In line with the CDPHE's Order, parks and open spaces within the Community will remain open at this time, but park amenities will be closed. All those using the park must abide by the rules identified in the Order:
