- Colorado Parks and Wildlife Strongly Recommends Against Feeding Any Wildlife Including Birds!
- Be Aware Of Your Surroundings At All Times! Within Our Community And Out On The Trails.

Pike Bounty
Get Paid To Fish!
| |
We will, as in years past, be continuing our "GET PAID TO FISH" program! A twenty dollar bounty will be paid for each pike removed from our lake. If caught while our office is closed please remember to wrap in plastic, and freeze, until you are able to bring by and collect your bounty. Leaving outside in a bucket will draw bears. Fresh or frozen the reward is still $20.
If you're wondering why pike? According to CPW, northern pike are a predatory species that can be harmful to trout fisheries. CPW is also concerned that if northern pike reached a critical habitat along the Colorado River, they would prey on the state's endangered native fishes.

Please be advised:
- No Fireworks, sparklers, tiki torches, or open flames.
- No slash or building material to be piled or barrel burned.
- CLCC has the right to enforce fire bands apart from town or county.
- Fire pits must be within the approved regulations. See the link below for specifics on your fire pit.
- Be sure to have direct access to water in order to extinguish it completely, and never leave a fire unattended.
- Please be sure to make your friends, family, and renters aware of these regulations!

OHV Rules and Regulations
If you have ATVs or have guests or renters with access to them please familiarize yourself with the CLCC Off-Highway Vehicles (OHV) regulations for use on our roads (Article XII of our Owners Regulations). Key points include:
* No child under the age of 10 may drive an OHV
* Attention owners of short-term rental properties! OHV use on CLCC roads is prohibited. OHVs must stay trailered while on CL property. It is the owner's responsibility to notify all renters of this policy.
* Drivers over the age of 10 must have a valid driver’s license OR be accompanied by a person with a valid driver’s license
* OHVs are to be used only to travel to and from a place or activity. Circling around the lake and neighborhoods and “joy-riding” is prohibited!

Remember to Leash Up Your Pup
All animals are required to be on a physical leash or controlled by an electronic leash at all times within CLCC. This includes all roads, community property and private property other than belonging to the animal owner. The only exception to this is while dogs swim in the lake, provided the animal is under immediate control by it's owner. We all think we know our pets, but remember, an uncontrolled animal that does physical harm to another person or pet is always held responsible.
Be sure to make all your guests aware of this policy.

Be Informed,
Be Alert!

Road Work To Begin In June
Our community roads will be bladed, as they are annually, due to the winter wear and tear. No exact date has been set but you will be alerted by an email when we know. Please remember to have all vehicles and other obstacles clear of the roads while work is in progress. Work will be completed by June 28th, as we are set for our magnesium chloride application to help stabilize the base and control dust. As always, use caution while driving on the roads while work is being completed.
Thank You !
