The Dunes Park Neighborhood

The Dunes Park neighborhood is a covenant-controlled community that is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Highway 85 and 112th Avenue in Commerce City. The neighborhood is comprised of 250 single family homes and 182 townhome units.

Recreational amenities within the neighborhood include a pool, park and walking path (on the north end of the neighborhood).

The neighborhood is surrounded by an abundance of open space, farm fields and undeveloped land but is also less than a 30-minute drive away from downtown Denver and the Denver International Airport. In addition, the neighborhood is less than one mile from the eastern bank of the Platte River and occasionally becomes the nesting grounds for our national bird, the bald eagle!

The Metro District

The Riverdale Dunes Metropolitan District No 1 (the District) is a quasi-municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Colorado. The District's boundaries wholly encompass the Dunes Park neighborhood and the District's board of directors is elected solely by Colorado registered voters living and/or owning property within the Dunes Park neighborhood. The purpose of the District is to (1) collect property taxes to repay the debt incurred to finance the development of the neighborhood, (2) maintain the open spaces and recreational facilities within the neighborhood, (3) monitor and enforce the Dunes Park restrictive covenants and maintenance standards applicable to every private lot and (4) provide architectural review services in accordance with the neighborhood's restrictive covenants.

As of January 1, 2013, the District assumed the responsibilities previously performed by the neighborhood's master HOA (i.e. Dunes master Owners Association, Inc.).

The Declaration
The Declaration contains the basic covenants and restrictions for Harvest Meadows. Article 4 of the Declaration assigns powers to the Architectural Committee to establish guidelines, standards, rules, regulations and procedures for the neighborhood. Article 3 of the Declaration establishes various restrictions on the use and maintenance of Lots within Dunes Park. Some of these restrictions are explicit and some are not - but the Declaration allows all rules to interpreted and clarified by the District Board. Any changes to the Declaration must be approved by a vote of the homeowners.

The Guidelines also provide the minimum standards for maintaining landscaping, the home exterior and other improvements on homeowners' Lots.

Election Results & Resolutions

Under the Colorado Local Government Election Code, regular elections are those where district directors are elected. These have been held on the Tuesday following the first Monday of May in even-numbered years, but beginning in 2023, they will be held in odd-numbered years. The transition to odd-numbered years was a result of House Bill 18-1039 and means that some districts will hold regular elections in May of both 2022 and 2023. Ballot issue elections concerning bonds (TABOR questions) must be held either at regular elections, in coordinated elections in November of even-numbered years, or in TABOR elections in November of odd-numbered years. Special elections, called by a special district board for non-TABOR questions, can be held in February, May (of even-numbered years), October, or December.
