The Sheriff's Department advises that if you are tipping the trash collectors, do not tape an envelope with cash to your trash bin. Instead try to give it to them in person.  Last Tuesday, a person in a white SUV was seen grabbing an envelope on Canyon Ridge.. Around the holidays, it is common knowledge when the trash pick up days are, and then the generous tipping for the trash collectors becomes a big payday for the thieves.

Paa-Ko’s Latest Chipping Project a Success

Thanks to 81 residential lot owners who participated in the HOA’s third chipping project. During two long event days a four-person team chipped over 461 cubic yards of lot debris that included dead trees, tree trimmings associated with Firewise thinning, and broken branches resulting from the weight of our 16-inch recent snow.

We revisited Chaco Loop (26 participants!), where we saw what a neighborhood section can achieve when they commit. But our team spent most of its time on southern Paa-Ko Drive and along Canyon Ridge.  Earlier, community volunteers had trimmed and stacked material from our southern entrance medians. You’ll notice a cleaner appearance at our oldest entrance (and we’re not done). Special team assistance was given to five “seasoned” households requiring a little help.

This HOA project was funded entirely by Ciudad Soil and Water Conservation District and our contractor was Wes Odle’s outstanding New Mexico Tree and Saw service.

Attached is the Firewise Certificate -  we are good through 2025.  Submitting this to your insurance carrier might possibly get you a discounted rate.

A big shout-out to the Paa-Ko HOA and Lantern Ridge for putting on a great event last night for our Paa-Ko community.  All the volunteers were wonderful, and the people at Lantern Ridge were amazing.  They went above and beyond to assure everyone felt at home and welcome.  In spite of nearly being blown into the next county at the beginning, the setting, the food, the drinks and the band (which inspired some "let loose" group dancing) all came together beautifully.  People meeting new people, and others seeing some they hadn't seen in a while - everything and everyone made it a very successful night. Let's hope this is the beginning of a great Paa-Ko tradition.  

Thank you to the Paa-Ko HOA and to Lantern Ridge for creating a very memorable evening!!
