The manager will interface with the board of directors on issues and recommendations related to the club house. In consideration for the time and effort, there is a small monthly compensation that will be discussed with the final candidate.

Now that the WC3 community survey is closed your board has begun the long process of analyzing the results.

The 27-question survey was comprised of 18 list questions, such as “Which of the following amenities…” and nine free-form questions, such as “What do you like most about WC3?” Each of the responses to the list questions will be summarized in a bar chart. But the responses to the free-form questions are more complex given the shear number of replies — 1,855. As a result it will take time to compile the information and make it presentable to the community.

This latest survey the third since Willow Creek was established in the early 1980. But this is the first survey that was conducted both online and by mail. Since the majority of our 515 home and town home owners has access to the internet, the board went with Survey Monkey — an online survey development cloud-based software — to help save an estimated $1,500 expense to produce and mail the questionnaire.

Specture sent the survey link via an email blast in February to roughly 400 households that had given their email addresses to the management company. Of that number, 283 responded electronically. Twenty-eight of the 115 households that either do not have internet access or elected not to use it mailed their responses to the four-page survey. All toll 311 households responded.

To participate, contact Roberta Steckler, RE/MAX Masters Millennium

As promised your board of directors is now available to answer your questions about the community online.

Residents can send their questions to any board member using the address [email protected] The only thing we ask is that residents identify themselves when posing questions. Our goal is to respond within three days so the site will be checked daily. Please be patient if you don’t receive a response within that timeframe. The majority of the board members have full-time jobs and families. Bottomline: Your board is committed to keeping the community informed and updated.

April 2018 ACC CornerSubmitted by Jeffrey StevensPainting a single-family home in WC III?

Before you paint, be sure to e-mail the paint coordinator at [email protected]. All you need to do is send an e-mail saying you want to paint and you will receive painting instructions. Paint colors for the single-family homes must be chosen from an approved palette of colors. Painting a home an existing color is often not acceptable as the spectrum of colors has changed over the years. The ACC works with paint professionals so that the homes in Willow Creek III are current with the prevailing trends. The ACC believes that this enhances the value of homes in Willow Creek.

Painting a town home?

Remember that town home owners must submit an ACC request when painting their home. This is a formality to insure that the correct paint and shade of paint is used.

Disagree with an ACC notice.

If you feel an ACC notice is incorrect or would like more time to correct an issue, talk to the ACC. The ACC meets the first Monday of the month in the clubhouse at 7:00 P.M. You may also send an e-mail to Greg Coleman at [email protected] asking for a time extension or for the ACC to review your particular issue.

Did you know the ACSO has an online reporting system?

If you are a victim of a crime that occurred within the jurisdictional boundaries of the sheriff's office, and that crime is not an emergency and does not have any known suspects, or you just need to make a report for insurance purposes, you can file an online report. Simply click "Report a Crime Online" on our homepage and follow the directions.

Grandparent Scam

You get a call or an email unexpectedly from someone who claims to be a friend or relative. This often happens to grandparents with the caller claiming to be their grandson or granddaughter. The caller says there’s an emergency and asks you to send money immediately. But beware, there’s a good chance this is an impostor trying to steal your money!

Volunteers

Volunteers are vital to the work we do in Arapahoe County. From basic data entry, to helping out with activities such as our Citizens' Academy, and everything in between. More information can be found on our employment page.

Senior Check-in Program

Seniors in the current program receive a call from a Communications Section staff member once a week. The call serves as a check in for the senior's health and well-being and provides quality interaction many of our seniors need.

To expand the program, the Communications Section is looking for volunteers. Volunteers would be expected to take on a call or two a week on a long-term basis, as consistent contact and ongoing conversations drive this program. See https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/arapahoe/sheriff for details.

News from the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office

Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD)

Our Culture Makes Colorado a Great Place to Live, Work and Play

Since 1989, Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) has distributed funds from a 1/10 of 1% sales and use tax to cultural facilities throughout the seven-county Denver, Colorado metropolitan area (Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas, and Jefferson counties). The funds support cultural facilities whose primary purpose is for enlightening and entertaining the public through the production, presentation, exhibition, advancement or preservation of visual arts, performing arts, cultural history, natural history, or natural sciences.

The distribution budget for scientific and cultural organizations in the seven-county area is approximately $50 million annually. And we've discovered that funding on that scale, delivered to a local area, makes a profound impact. As a result, the Denver Metro area is now in the national spotlight and has been elevated in stature to a world-class cultural center.

WC3 Swim Team The Willow Creek 3 Swim Team is a 501(c)3 non-profit origination based in Centennial, Colorado. We are a summer swim team that is a must for all of the kids in the neighborhood as well as their friends outside of Willow Creek. Our swim team has been a staple in the neighborhood for over 25 years. Our team is for all abilities and levels with an emphasis on learning to swim better with competitions as a sort of measuring stick to gauge personal accomplishments. There are a handful of year-round swimmers, but the big majority of the team is kids having fun for the summer.

WC3 Dolphin Swim Team is open to kids age 4-18. For the younger swimmers, the coaches request the kids are comfortable in the water. Both WC3 residents and non-residents are welcome to join.

Season starts May 14th and ends mid-July. Our end of the year party is held at Pirates Cove. Practice are held in the afternoon in May. Once school is out, practices move to the morning time frame (7:30 am - 10:45 am). Swimmers are grouped on ability more than age.

Registration is Open! Join the fun! Electronic Registration is now open!

Whether you're a returning family or new family joining our team, the registration process is simple and takes only a few minutes. You will be requested to pay during the last step of the registration process. Sign up by April 15, 2018 and save $20 off of the late registration cost.

Parent Informational Meeting: Join us to learn more about the Dolphins swim team!! We will cover how swim team works, why swim team is great, what you can expect as well as get to know other parents in the neighborhood. The meeting will occur on Sunday, April 8th from 4-6 pm. At 5 pm, we will hold the apparel fitting and continue to answer any questions. We will meet at the WC3 Clubhouse.

Sponsorship & Personal Pledges

We are looking for sponsors for the 2018 Summer Swim Team season! In an effort to offset the swim team costs and the rising minimum wage rate, we are looking to sponsorships. If you own a small business and would like to participate, we would be happy to promote your business. Sponsorships with the WC3 Swim Team will allow for unique and exclusive access to the parents within Willow Creek 3 as well as the surrounding areas. Our swim team season runs for 10 weeks with the swimmers and parents at the pool 6 days a week. While it is a short season, the swim team experience is intense. Please contact [email protected] for a sponsorship packet and more information.

In addition, we are happy to accept personal donations. The Willow Creek 3 Swim Team is a 501c3 organization under the IRS guidelines. Please email [email protected] for the personal pledge form and return to our treasurer, Laura Ream.

Centennial Updates Submitted by Andrea Suhaka

From the SE Extension Project Manager:

2018 is going to be a busy year on the Southeast Rail Extension project. With much of the civil work behind us, the systems elements that power the trains will become the main effort of work crews. One of the biggest systems challenges will be the work that is necessary to tie-in the new rail extension with RTD’s current systems.

The SE Rail Extension project team will soon begin a cutover process at the end of line tail tracks south of Lincoln Station. The work for the cutover/tie-in will take place in March, weather and schedule permitting, and will result in a 9-day full closure of train service at Lincoln and County Line stations. During the shutdown, crews will replace old equipment including track and rail, Overhead Catenary System (OCS) poles and wires, conduit and other utilities. Riders are encouraged to utilize stations north of County Line Station or seek alternate means of transportation during the 9-day closure.

Lincoln Station is the current end-of-line; but by 2019, the final destination for the E, F and R light rail lines will be RidgeGate Station. Once construction is completed, the new system must be tested. This includes installing electrical, signal and communications systems, as well as operating train vehicles under their own power on the new rail line. Systems and testing work is planned to take place through 2018, and the line is scheduled to open for service in 2019.

The city of Centennial (municipal code 7-7-320) as well as Willow Creek 3 policies, require that pet owners remove and dispose of pet waste on any property other than that of the owner or keeper. In other words, when you are out and about with your dog, don’t leave a mess. City fines start at $50 and can include a Municipal Court appearance. And if you see someone not following the rules, please let them know. Also, both Willow Creek 3 and the city require that dogs be leashed and under control when out in the community.

Redesigned Realty

Willow Creek Real Estate News

Some of you may be as shocked as I am at the price some Willow Creek homes have fetched recently. At the end of last year we saw a Willow Creek home sell for $745,000, and as I write this another home in our neighbor-hood went under contract at a list price of $714,000 in only 3 days! Granted both of these homes were exceptional, and this most recent home had not only been beautifully remodeled, and backed to the greenbelt, but also had added square footage to bring up this Brookdale Model to 3,156 square feet from it’s original 2,034 square feet. Most of the neighborhood won’t get a chance to see how fantastic this home really is in person since it went under contract so quickly. That’s why I started WillowCreekMLS.com. You can go to the site, put in your name and email, and you will get a month-ly email with pictures and details of all the homes for sale that month. I’ll never send you spam or even ask for your address. (You can even put in a fake name if you want)

We all get monthly flyers of homes for sale in the mail or Xeroxed copies stuck to my door, and that’s great, but it’s just a bunch of addresses and pric-es. What we really want are pictures and details, not just numbers. Give it a try, It’s free and you can cancel anytime. I have ten years experience selling homes in Willow Creek. Give me a call for help with any of your real estate needs. 720-432-5545 or at [email protected]
