Who is my District Delegate, and what does a delegate do?
District Delegates play a vital role in our community; they are your dedicated resource for community information. In addition to keeping you apprised of information that is shared at monthly HOA meetings, they are also responsible for relaying your questions and concerns back to the Board. Get to know your delegates and help them help you!
Visit the Contact page to get in touch with your local delegate.
Do we have a community clubhouse and pool?
​Yes, Crystal Valley has an outdoor pool (open Memorial Day - Labor Day), and a beautiful clubhouse with an indoor gym and rentable community room. Located at 2160 Fox Haven Drive, The Pinnacle is truly the heart of our community. Staffed hours vary by season; you'll find current hours listed on The Pinnacle page.

We also plan community events, classes, and other opportunities to come together and meet neighbors around Crystal Valley; check our events page for details.
How do I find out about classes and events happening at our community club house, The Pinnacle
Please visit our Events  page for all upcoming events in our community including happy hours and family events. Clubhouse information including rec center hours and fitness classes can be found on The Pinnacle page. 
There are vehicles driving around my neighborhood, taking pictures. Who are they, and what are they doing?
​Occasionally, our HOA management company drives through our entire community to ensure residents are compliant with our covenants. This vehicle will ALWAYS have a magnet on the side of it, with the AMI logo and contact information. If you have concerns about this vehicle only, please email clientcare@amihoa.com.
​
If you see other vehicles, they could potentially be appraisers, realtors, neighbors, or even just somebody who really loves something about your house! If you have concerns about any of these vehicles, please contact your local authorities.
Is King's Ridge part of Crystal Valley?
No, King's Ridge has never been part of the Crystal Valley development; King's Ridge is an independent community adjacent to Crystal Valley. Our community starts on the West side of Crystal Valley Parkway with Antelope Ridge and Tara's Ridge, and continues East all the way to Lake Gulch Road,  including all the districts off of Loop Road.
I'm noticing a huge problem with speeding vehicles in our neighborhood, what can I do?
​The Board has been in contact with the Castle Rock Police Department to help setup speed traps around our community, but there is only so much they can do to address your concerns. If you have a problem in your area that you feel requires action, this is what the police department has asked you to do:

1) Call the Castle Rock Police Department and file a complaint. They will need the street names, and if you have descriptions or license plate numbers of frequent offenders, that information is helpful as well.

2) Once your complaint is on file with the police department, we encourage you to follow up with us, so we can flag certain areas around our community. The information you share will be kept confidential; please email clientcare@amihoa.com with the street names (we do not need vehicle information).
​
3) The green turtles are an amazing resource to help drivers remember to slow down, but these can NOT be placed in the middle of the road, or anywhere they will obstruct traffic - you can be assessed a fine for this. Instead, place them on the sides of the street, no further than cars would be parked.
​HOW DO I SIGN UP FOR AUTOMATIC PAYMENTS?
Please complete this ACH form and send your completed application to clientcare@amihoa.com. 
where can i find more information about hoa dues/monthly assessments?
Monthly assessments are due on the first of the month. The 2022 assessment rate is $79.25 per month, except for Painters Ridge, which is $67 per month. See link for payment details.
who do i contact for snow removal?
Street plowing is managed by the town and prioritized to clear main roads and school bus routes first. Please contact the town of CR if your street has been missed. 
Sidewalks next to common areas are the responsibility of the HOA or developer. Please contact clientcare@amihoa.com if an area has been missed. 
Sidewalks in front of homeowner's property are the responsibility of the homeowner and must be cleared within 48 hours after a snowfall. 
do we have a neighborhood watch to help monitor crime?
CRPD advises watch groups are formed with good intentions but tend to fizzle out over time.  CRPD joined our January 2021 HOA meeting to share tips to make your family & your home secure:
  • Keep personal items (purses, wallets, cash, keys) out of plain sight
  • Keep your cars locked (even if you park your car in your garage)
  • Do not leave key fobs and personal items in your car overnight
  • Keep your outdoor lights on to help deter thieves
If you have cameras installed, register your cameras with the police to help identify other crimes in the neighborhood. To register your cameras, go to crgov.com/rockwatch
