Homeowners planning to modify the exterior of their house, add an addition or modify their property, including landscaping, must complete a Modifications Request Form and submit it to HOAMCO (highdesertmanager@hoamco.com) by the date provided in the MC Operating Procedures.

Please visit the Online Forms Page.

Your Yard
The condition of your yard says a lot about you. Follow these guidelines: PLEASE! Keep your yard free of weeds, plant debris such as leaves, dead branches and other loose trash. It gets very windy here, and nobody wants to pick up your trash on their property. If you don’t, you may be fined by the HDROA.

Keep shrubs and trees trimmed so they don’t block sidewalks, grow over or outside of common walls and view fences. Also, don’t over-water - it creates white mineral deposits.

Plantings
All plants that are visible from the street, public areas or an adjacent lot must be from the Approved Plant List on the Governing Documents page.

Common Areas Adjacent to Your Home
In addition to your own yard, you are responsible for weeding and maintaining common areas between your walls and the sidewalk, and between the sidewalk and the street. Also, you need to keep adjacent sidewalks free of snow.

Pedestrian Gate: There is one pedestrian gate in Chaco Compound, next to the vehicle entrance gate. This is opened (and closed) by a key, which you can get by contacting HOAMCO management company office (505-314-5862).

As a matter of security and everyone’s privacy, please make sure the pedestrian gate closes and latches behind you when exiting.

As always, if you encounter any problems, damage or difficulties with the gates, please contact HOAMCO immediately.

There are two pedestrian gates in The Canyons. One gate is located west of the entrance gate, and the other pedestrian gate is a private gate for The Canyons residents only. It is located on the east side of The Canyons facing the mountains and is for accessing the open space trails. If you do not know the code (or the gate requires a standard key and you did not receive one), please contact HOAMCO management company office (505-314-5862).

As a matter of security and everyone’s privacy, please make sure the pedestrian gates close and latch behind you when exiting.

As always, if you encounter any problems, damage or difficulties with the gates, please contact HOAMCO immediately.

For enhanced security, The Trillium features locked vehicle and pedestrian gates, plus a 24/7 Security Patrol (shared by all of High Desert).

Vehicle Gates: The vehicle entry and exit gate for The Trillium is accessible by a remote “clicker” or swipe card for residents. The entry call box directory lists the assigned 3-digit code for each residence. When the code is called at the call box, residents can speak to callers or open the gates remotely by pressing “9” for guest entry. Clicker or swipe card are obtained from HOAMCO.

Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to open a gate by force or enter through the exit gate, as this can result in serious and expensive damage to the mechanism. The cost of repairs for such damage normally is taken from the Village’s expense reserve and could, at some point, create the need to increase assessments to our residents. If you have difficulty with the gates opening or with your clicker or swipe card, please contact HOAMCO immediately.

Pedestrian Gates: There are five pedestrian gates in The Trillium, one at the end of each street and beside the vehicle gate. Residents are given keys to the pedestrian gates. The gates should close and lock automatically but as a matter of security and everyone’s privacy, please make sure that the gate closes securely behind you when entering or exiting.

As always, if you encounter any problems, damage or difficulties with the gates, please contact HOAMCO immediately.
