About the Crystal Park Metropolitan District

The Crystal Park Metro District was organized pursuant to Title 32, article I of the Colorado Revised Statute, with the primary function of fire protection. Formed by a public election in 1995, it is a governmental entity, and is subject to State and County statutes, regulations, reporting and auditing requirements.

Five directors are publicly elected to administer all District business and maintain financial compliance. Each director serves a four-year term on the Board with a two year overlap between directors. The ability to vote for Board directors is based on property ownership within the District (based on tax records), residency and voting registration and is not neccessarily related to local homeowners association membership.

The Metro Board of Directors, in conjunction with the Crystal Park Fire Department, evaluates and identifies the most effective use of revenue consistent with its fire protection function and, at its discretion, creates and adjusts budgeted allocations across expense categories. An example of this is CPFD efforts to improve water delivery and overall fire protection capabilities in its coverage area. Each October, a "notice of budget" is published in the Pikes Peak Bulletin for the purpose of inviting public inspection and input of the proposed budget for the following year.

All District records are public, and are posted on this website. Please notice the menu on the right side of this page to find the annual budget, public documents, meeting minutes and agendas, treasurer's reports, and public notices.

Meetings are held at 6:00 PM on the first Wednesday of every month, except July, at the Crystal Park Fire Station at 496 Palmer Trail in Crystal Park. Exceptions are publicly posted, unless there is a lack of quorum at the time of the meeting: At such time, the meeting may continue for discussion purposes, or be cancelled. District residents are welcome to attend meetings to stay informed of all District activities.

Questions and comments may be directed to the Metro Board Chairman Twana Denton tdenton@cpmd.crystalparkvfd.org
