GVR METROPOLITAN DISTRICT The GVR Metropolitan District receives quite a few phone calls during the spring and summer each year with concerns on the common areas throughout the community. The information below is provided to help educate the community on which entity is responsible for which areas and describe the different management of our open spaces. The GVR Metro District is directly responsible for all of the walkthroughs, tree lawn areas not maintained by homeowners, greenbelts, detention and retention ponds, medians, and all landscaping around properties owned by the District like the Administrative Office at 18650 E. 45th Ave. The District also maintains over 65,000 linear feet of common area fences throughout the District. Denver Parks and Recreation is directly responsible for all care of the five parks throughout the District as well as the open space native area along the Highline canal and all along the First Creek Open Space area. Until the land is developed and turned over to the Metro District, Oakwood Homes is currently responsible for the care of the area between the fence and 38th Ave. (on the south border of the District), as well as the space between the fence and Picadilly Road (on the east boarder of the District). Development plans are moving forward and development of that land should occur in 2010 and finish by 2011. Individual property owners that own the vacant lots throughout the District are responsible for their own lots. This includes care of the tree lawns, and for many homes on corner lots that do not border common areas, the care of the tree lawn along the side of their property is also the homeowners responsibility. If you live on a corner lot and need to find out if the side area is yours to maintain, feel free to call the Metro District office or the HOA office and someone can assist you. Denver Public Schools is responsible for the fields and landscaped areas surrounding the local schools. Please click on the map below to see which parties are responsible for maintenance in non-residential areas of GVR. Turf Areas: Turf areas are maintained on a weekly schedule by the Metro District with mowing, trimming and edging done with a contract with Urban Farmer, Inc. Natural/Native Areas: In the city, natural areas are special portions of open, undeveloped land. They tell us about the history of the land and region, it landscape, geology and people. Unlike traditional developed parks, natural areas are shaped, developed and sustained by nature. If you have concerns or questions related to the City of Denver's maintenance program, we encourage you to call them through their 311 resource telephone number.
