City of Arvada Parks Maintenance Tree Work around Pomona Lake and Little Dry Creek – June 24

The City of Arvada Parks Maintenance staff has notified us that beginning tomorrow morning, Thursday, June 24 at approx. 7:30 a.m. through the end of day, tree work will take place around Pomona Lake and along the Little Dry Creek Trail. A number of Russian Olives will be removed as they are considered an invasive species. A number of other trees will also be trimmed due to dead or dying branches and to abide by tree maintenance standards.

It is important to note that if a homeowner’s trees hang over the fence line onto City property, the City is allowed to trim the trees back to the fence line and to raise the tree canopy to a minimum of 8′ feet over sidewalks/trails as needed to clear the surrounding area for mowers, vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, signs, lights, etc.

The Meadowglen community, HOA and BOD have always had a very cooperative partnership with City of Arvada staff. We request that if a resident has a question or concern about this work, please contact a board member or Advance HOA. Please respect those doing the work and do NOT confront them. They are not the decision-makers regarding the work being done.

Thank you in advance.

Ari Feldman, Board President
