Gary Arneson, Director:

Mentioned the Cheyenne street sign is obscured on Copper Cove Drive from theovergrowth adjacent to Shotgun Creek, which is a county responsibility.

Sheldon Toso, Director:

Sheldon reported: “The Rocky Road Community Service District is insolvent. Thedistrict cannot collect sufficient funds from the members to pay the debt required for the replacement, repair and maintenance of sixteen(16) miles of asphalt roads”.
Sheldon reported on an itemized list referred to as Copper Cove Community Service District Fee Analysis Sheet dated June 24, 2026, that illustrates the current tax annually of $199,150 should be $651.062per member/lot owner each year. This report explains the difference in cost between what is required by Rocky Road Districtcompared to what we currently receive in funding. Sheldon requested the Board’s approval to contact Amanda Folendorf (ourDistrict 4 Supervisor) and request a meeting with Board for guidance, a county opinion and perspective on narrowing that fundinggap. Gary supports seeking this guidance and noted it is our fiduciary duty to surface any risks and this forecast tothe county that would impede our duty to maintain proper stewardship of our shared infrastructure due to any deficiencies in our fundingmodel.
Sheldon also noted that we (the Board) over-estimated the district’s total income byapproximately $20,000 for fiscal 2026-2027 Budget.
