ROADS
The Blue Hills Ranch Subdivision ROADS are the Association's responsibility. To describe them as challenging is an understatement.
There are approximately 10 miles of road within the subdivision. The roads were deeded to the BHRLOA Members. Easements, width and setback requirements are dictated in the BHRLOA Community Documents.
All culvert installation, clearing, tree trimming, tree removal, rock removal and organizing is done by volunteer Members.
The BHR Subdivision can expect the roads to be graded a minimum of once per year and a maximum of twice per year.
Directors have discretion to make emergency decisions to ensure ingress and egress.
