Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is there a leash law within Skyland?
A. All dogs must be kept in a dog run area, on a leash or chain, or under direct control of a person at all times.
Q. What are the association dues used for?
A. Some of the monies from the dues are used to cover the expenses incurred in the daily operation of the association. The majority of the dues are used for projects throughout the Skyland area. These projects include the play park, the pavilion at Grant Lake and the ever-expanding bike path.
Q. Do I pay association dues on each property that I own in Skyland?
A. Yes.
Q. Can I get a mailbox at the postal annex building at the corner of Brush Creek Road and Slate River Drive?
A. Yes. Any Skyland Community Association owner can get a box at the annex. The first step is to contact Adele Bachman at the Crested Butte Post Office at (970) 349-5568. Because there are many second homeowners in Skyland, the Post Office does encourage anyone that would want a box for less than 6 months out of the year to simply have their mail sent to the Crested Butte Post Office at General Delivery.
Q. What are the rules for fishing at Grant Lake?
A. 1. Catch and release only is encouraged.
2. Ten (10) fish per property is the annual limit.
3. Barbless hooks, flies and lures only.
4. Children under 12 years of age may use bait.
Q. Can I use and store my boat at Grant Lake?
A. Boats may be used and stored at your own risk. All boats are required to have a Skyland Metropolitan District sticker. Stickers are available through the main office. Office Information
Vehicle and Boat Registration Form
Q. Why am I paying for water on my vacant lot?
A. All vacant land within Skyland is charged a monthly Availability of Service Fee (ASF) by the Skyland Metropolitan District. This money is used for payment of principal and interest of Skyland Metropolitan District's long-term debt. Because of this fee, you can be assured that when you build your home, water will be ready and available for you.
Q. Can I write one check for both my water (Skyland Metropolitan District) and sewer (East River Regional Sanitation District) bills?
A. No. Although your water and sewer bills are generated out of the same office and both have the same address, Skyland Metropolitan District and East River Regional Sanitation District are two separate entities. They each have their own accounting system, financial records and are operated separately. Therefore, we ask that you do issue two separate checks.
Q. What are the rules for using the pavilion at Grant Lake?
A. 1. The pavilion is for use only by Skyland property owners, their immediate families and guests.
2. Property owner sponsored gatherings are not allowed.
3. Use of the pavilion should last no later than ½ hour after dark.
4. Please take all trash and food with you when you are done. (This prevents any animal incidents!)
5. Wedding ceremonies are permitted for owners only. No receptions are allowed. Please contact the office for specific details regarding weddings at the pavilion.
6. A clean-up deposit of $250.00 is required if you would like to reserve the pavilion for a specific date and time. Please contact the office to inquire about availability. Pavilion Permit Form
Q. Do I need a parking sticker in order to park in Skyland?
A. In an effort to curb illegal parking and access to Skyland property owner amenities, Skyland Metropolitan District (SMD) has a vehicle sticker program in place. These stickers help the SMD staff identify owner vehicles and help them to enforce parking and use of owner amenities. If you have not yet registered your vehicle(s) please stop by our office and we will issue your sticker(s). You can also fill out and mail the Vehicle and Boat Registration Form. Once we receive the completed form, we will mail your sticker(s) to you.
Please note: There is no parking on Skyland roads or on cul-de-sacs.
Q. What is the first step in building a home on my Skyland lot?
A. Contact the office and request a Design Review Packet. The packet contains the Design Guidelines and all applicable forms required to start the process.
