*Association Security & Gate Access*
As part of our ongoing efforts to keep our Associations safe and secure, the Board is reinforcing our gate access policies.
When the key fob system was introduced several years ago, it was intended to better manage access and eliminate the use of Personal Identification Numbers (PINs). Over time, however, PINs and some key-fobs have been shared or retained in ways that create security concerns for our community.
To address this and protect all residents, the following policies will be in effect:
- Residents are to use a key fob or remote control (clicker) for gate access.
- PIN access will no longer be used.
- Real estate agents will not be issued PINs, including for open houses.
- Guests should be met at the gate by the resident they are visiting.
- When a home is sold, please notify the Board so access devices can be updated or reassigned.
Beginning Monday morning, all existing PINs will be removed, including the emergency access code. A new system is now in place that automatically recognizes emergency vehicles, so manual codes are no longer needed.
The Board will work directly with regular service providers (such as propane companies and others) to ensure they continue to have appropriate access.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement these measures. These steps are important to maintaining a safe and secure environment for everyone in Aspen Acres and Aspen Mountain.
Thank you,
Aspen Acres Board
*Water leak found, Tanks are filling --- Water Leak Reported 6/18/26*
Please be sure to completely shut off your water at the street valves, when you are not at your property. This would have eliminated 2 of our most recent issues. Thank you!
We have just been notified that there is a water leak somewhere in our Association. We're losing 20-30 gallons per minute but can't find it. Please look around your properties for a potential leak and make sure your water valves are turned off at the street.

Wildfire Evacuation Plan: What You Need to Know
Wildfire Evacuation: What You Need to Know
Summit County uses a "Ready, Set, Go" evacuation model:
- Ready: Prepare your property for a wildfire before one occurs
- Set: Get prepared to leave at a moment's notice, and strongly consider leaving at this stage rather than waiting
- Go: Evacuate immediately
Primary route: Cross the Weber River bridge and head west on Weber Canyon Road. If firefighting equipment needs that bridge or if the bridge is out, you may be redirected to use the Secondary Emergency route.
Secondary Emergency Egress Route: Only to be used in an Emergency!
This egress route has a locked gate, and it is trespassing if used not for emergency purposes. It is located following Shoshone, to Creek Road and then up to the top of Cherokee.
Your responsibility: No board members or residents are asked to delay their evacuation to warn others. Every resident is responsible for knowing when to go.
If the canyon road is blocked: The incident commander will designate a shelter-in-place location. If no commander is on scene, use the winter parking lot or the open grassy area near the Smith and Morehouse Reservoir turnoff. Sheltering at the reservoir itself is not recommended.

TRESPASSING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY
WARNING: NO TRESPASSING - EMERGENCY EGRESS ROUTE
In 2025, our Aspen Mountain HOA joined forces with our neighboring HOAs of Aspen Mountain and Beaver Springs as part of a new effort to create an Emergency Evacuation Plan.
Part of that plan included creating a new emergency-only egress between our Aspen Acres/Aspen Mountain HOAs and the Beaver Springs HOA. As part of that joint effort, Aspen Mountain and Beaver Springs donated the land, Beaver Springs donated the legal work, and Aspen Acres donated the labor and materials to improve the existing road (allowing the passage of regular vehicles in the event of an emergency) and install the gate. Signs are also in the works to be installed in all three HOAs along emergency passage routes directing exiting traffic to the nearest escape outlet, as applicable.
While the road is now complete, the gate has yet to be installed. It’s come to our board’s attention that some residents (or their guests) of any of our three HOAs have stumbled across that egress road and have been inappropriately using it for recreational or other travel between and amongst our combined HOAs.
Until the gate is installed, please inform all your visiting family members and guests that this road is NOT to be used EXCEPT in the event of a life-threatening evacuation (i.e. a fire or other emergency) that prevents use of each HOA’s normal exits. Any and all persons illegally crossing that boundary between the HOAs, except for emergency egress purposes, ARE violating trespassing laws and may face prosecution for such. Each resident is responsible for informing anyone staying on their property of all of the above rules and restrictions.
_________________________________________________________
Additionally, During the past year we've had several instances of trespassing on private property by individuals on ski's, snowmobiles and ATV's. Please remember and share with your visitors that all property in Aspen Acres is private property with the exception of the primary roads. All skiers and machines are to remain on these roads at all times. Please don't trespass on your neighbor's property.
Please also note that Stillman Ranch, to the east of us, is private property and we've had several instances of people going over the eastern fences to access. Stillman has notified us that they will call Summit County Sheriff and file trespassing charges with those that enter their property.
