CONSTRUCTION

Building a new home is a big undertaking. Even upgrading an existing home can be challenging. Other homeowners at Blue Mesa may be willing to share their knowledge and experience.

The association, as well as Gunnison County and Colorado State, regulate the construction within the Blue Mesa area. The association architectural committee helps to maintain the quality of our neighborhood. Its function is to evaluate all plans (new building, fence, exterior remodeling, etc).

Before requesting a Gunnison County permit, prepare a sketch/description of the improvements planned for your property and submit it to the Blue Mesa Architectural Committee for review. The county will be looking for the HOA approval.

Also, review the HOA covenants and policies to determine the number and type of buildings that are allowed on your property. The fence policy provides guidance on the type of fences permitted. Once the construction permit has been received and actual construction started, under the covenants, a property owner may move a trailer onto the property for a period not to exceed 6 months during the construction.
