HR HISTORIC HIGHLIGHTS: HIGHLANDS RANCH DOUGLAS COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICE VISIBLE IN COMMUNITY Douglas County’s law enforcement roots go back to the days of the Wild West. “Life in the early days was a constant struggle because of the forbidding natural elements," said Undersheriff Dave Walcher. “Also, Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians regularly attacked white settlers.” The county was named for U.S. Senator Stephen A. Douglas, Abraham Lincoln’s rival in the 1860 presidential election. The county was one of 17 created by the Colorado Territorial Legislature in November 1861, five months after Douglas’ death. “The early justice system was rooted in the People’s Court where the accused was given a “fair” trial by the people,” said Walcher. “Sentences were carried out immediately!” Today’s justice system is a far cry from the days of the Wild West. “We’re part of the community, not in charge of it,” said Deputy Brian McKnight of the Community Resource Unit in the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office (DCSO) at the Highlands Ranch substation. The DCSO substation located in Town Center—at the heart of the community—opened in 2011. (story continued on page 3)

Backcountry Wilderness Area, including the max capacity of 1,300 campers at Camp Backcountry this summer, we’re excited to begin the process to consider a new amenity: the Backcountry Outdoor Center. The proposed project includes a building at Backcountry Base Camp which would add an on-site storm shelter, office space, and adequate room for programming that will make the Backcountry Wilderness Area the place for environmental education on the Front Range. Additionally, the proposed plan includes an indoor horse facility at the Horse Corrals to provide affordable, year-round, close-to-home equine opportunities. Learn more by visiting the Backcountry Outdoor Center project web site www.hrcabackcountryoutdoorcenter.org. Please join us for an open house to visit Base Camp (6005 Ron King Trail, 80125) on October 2 from 3:00 - 5:00 p.m. Following the Open House, we invite you to a virtual public meeting with HRCA representatives, Backcountry Wilderness Area staff, and the project design consultants to hear more and provide feedback. Visit our web site for the date, meeting link, and details.

Member Education: This quarter I would like to provide information about the Delegates. A Delegate is a homeowner either elected by members within a Delegate District or appointed by their sub-association Board to represent such Delegate District and to cast votes on behalf of members within the Delegate District as provided in the Community Declaration. Delegates meet monthly to discuss a variety of topics about the Community Association. Some duties and powers of the Delegate body include amending and approving the community Bylaws, creating rules and regulations for the use and operation of the recreational facilities, proposing increases and/or reductions for the Recreation Function Common Assessments (RFCA’s) necessary for the operation of the Recreation Center and proposing and reviewing improvements to the recreational facilities. Delegates are elected in April of every year to serve the community.

COMMUNITY NEWS Fall Reminders from Community Improvement Services Apple cider, pumpkin spice, falling leaves- it’s officially fall! As we find ourselves in the fourth quarter of 2021, it is amazing how quickly this year has gone by. Were you able to get your house painted or put in that new patio? If you completed an improvement, please be sure to submit the work completion notice so we can close out the file. The work completion notice can be found at web site www.HRCAonline.org under home improvement forms. Just select Work Completion Notice in the dropdown. Fill out the form, attach a photo and you are done. If we have any questions or need to do a site inspection, we will reach out to you. If you are thinking about projects for 2022, the fall and winter months are a great time to submit. The volume of submittals is greatly reduced from what we see in the summer months. Since the approval from the Architectural Committee is good for one year, starting your project in the late spring or early summer will not be an issue. This time of year includes elections, various activities, and holidays. Please keep in mind there are rules related to election signage and holiday lighting. Signs and flags related to state or local elections may not be placed out more than 45 days prior to the election and must be removed no more than seven days post-election. Signs and flags may not be hung from or attached to fences. Please visit the Residential Improvement Guidelines section of the web site to see the most up to date rules regarding signs and flags given the recent passing of HB20-1310. When it comes to all the pretty lights and décor that celebrates the holidays, please be sure to put it up no more than 30 days before the holiday and remove by February 1. Also be respectful of neighboring properties and don’t run lights and animated decorations all night long!
(story continued from page 1) Protecting citizens is DCSO’s priority. For example, deputies assigned as School Resource Officers are on the front line of protecting the community’s youngest citizens and creating a safe, secure learning environment. DCSO’s primary area of responsibility is the unincorporated portion of Douglas County, including Highlands Ranch, covering a large part of the county’s total 844 square miles. Tresana resident Julie Dearien recently gave a shout out to DCSO on Nextdoor, a social media platform that brings neighborhoods together. She headlined her post, “Love the Douglas County Sheriffs.” “I was sitting at the Lincoln and I-25 light and watched a Douglas County sheriff hop out of his car and bring a homeless man a brand-new pair of sneakers,” she said. “That’s love in action. Thanks, DCS.” Her post garnered nearly 450 “likes”, mostly with hearts! Follow Julie’s advice and take time to thank our DC Sheriff Deputies and staff. Their kindness prevails in Highlands Ranch.
