About the District - Erie Highlands Metropolitan District No. 2
The Erie Highlands Metropolitan District No. 2 (“District”) is a quasi-municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Colorado organized and operating pursuant to Article 1 of Title 32 of the Colorado Revised Statutes. A metro district is a type of special district that provides at least two different types of services. Metro districts finance the public infrastructure necessary for residential as well as commercial and mixed-use developments.
The District was formed in 2013 to finance the construction, installation, and operation of public
improvements, including water, parks and recreation, sanitation, streets, safety protection, and storm drainage for the Erie Highlands development. The District is located entirely within the boundaries of the Town of Erie, Weld County, Colorado. The District is not a homeowners’ association, although it is responsible for covenant enforcement and design review services, landscaping maintenance on District-owned tracts, and pool and clubhouse operations and maintenance (with District No. 1).
The District is authorized to impose taxes and/or fees to pay for debt service and ongoing maintenance. Pursuant to the Consolidated Service Plan for Erie Highlands Metropolitan District Nos. 1-5, the District’s aggregate total debt is limited to $60,000,000. The Maximum Debt Mill Levy is 50 mills, subject to adjustment.
The District is served by a five-member Board of Directors, who are elected at large to four-year staggered terms. Regular Director Elections are held in May of odd-numbered years. Eligible electors may submit a Self-Nomination and Acceptance Form if they wish to run for a seat on the Board. The next election is in May of 2027. Information on obtaining and submitting a Self-Nomination will be provided beginning January 1, 2027.
