WATER ON
The water is on for the season.
Mesa County is in a Severe Drought. Please consider reducing your watering this year. This is one of the worse droughts Mesa County has ever seen. I've attached the DRIP recommended watering schedule. Please also visit
dripinfo.com to see everything related to this extreme drought.
Pump will still run from 5am-11am and 5pm-11pm daily.
4.20.26
Water to be turned on today, Monday 4.20.26
4.10.26
WATER UPDATE
Water will be turned on next week. Please make sure your main valve is CLOSED in preparation. Please also take the time to visually check your main valve for any cracks or issues and let us know if you need to make repairs before the water is turned on. If you have a leak once the water is on, please reach out to us right away. The pump can be turned off on the south side of the pump house at the electrical box, but this should only be done in an emergency situation. If the leak is small, please reach out to us and we can turn the pump off properly to avoid damaging the pump.
RUSSIAN OLIVE TREE F 1/4 ROAD:
The large Russian Olive tree on F 1/4 road that runs along the Price Ditch road/pipeline will be removed by Palisade Irrigation District in the next few weeks. The tree's roots are starting to damage the Price Ditch and the tree must be removed. This will NOT COST the HOA anything as the Palisade Irrigation District will cover the cost of removal.
10.21.25
WATER UPDATE
The price ditch will be turned off this Friday the 24th. We will turn off our pump Friday morning for the year. LiquiGreen is still getting a date to winterize the main system. You can winterize your system anytime after the 24th. Please close your main valve once you are winterized to avoid water getting back into your system from the main line.
9.8.25
WATER BACK ON
Water is back on as of 5pm Monday 9/8
9.4.25
WATER IS OFF
We have a main line leak in the backyard of 624 Crestmont. Unfortunately the owner is out of town until Friday evening and there are 2 aggressive dogs in the yard. We were able to contact the homeowner and he will be able to get the dogs in the house for us to make repairs this upcoming Monday Sept 8. We will update everyone once the repair is made and we can turn the water back on.
9.2.25
WATER OFF
Water is off for a main line leak. This appears to be another deep leak, so the water will be off for a few days. I will update everyone when we know more. Thank you.
4.24.25
WATER WILL BE BACK ON THIS EVENING
The break was on the homeowners side of the their main valve. We shut their main valve and can safely turn the water back on. The water may not be on at 5pm exactly, but should on by 7-8pm at the latest.
4.24.25
WATER OFF
For a potential above ground valve break. Will update when we know more.
4.15.25
WATER IS ON. Schedule is 5am-11am and 5pm-11pm. Please follow us on Facebook for the most up to date information on Silver Mountain Irrigation this summer. We will email out updates when possible, but you may not get the most up to date information if relying on email alone.
4.9.25
WATER UPDATE
Water will be on in the next couple of weeks. Palisade Irrigation has filled the price ditch, but everyone’s head gate is still locked. LiquiGreen is looking into when the locks will be removed. As soon as they are, we will fill our pump house vault and then let the sediment settle a day or two and then get the pump going. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR MAIN VALVES ARE SHUT AND TAKE SOME TIME TO CHECK FOR ANY VISIBLE BREAKS BEFORE WE START UP THE PUMP. I will post again
when I have more details.
10.21.24WATER IS OFF FOR THE YEAR Due to some flooding in a few yards and a potential main line break, the water has been shut off. Since the winterization is occurring Wednesday, we are going to leave the water off for the year. PLEASE CLOSE YOUR MAIN VALVE NOW. Thank You.
Thank You,
Daniel Bonnell
Silver Mountain HOA
10.17.24The water will be turned off for the season and the main line will be winterized Wednesday October 23rd. Please ensure your main valve is turned off no later than Tuesday October 22nd to ensure the main line valve is able to be properly winterized. You can schedule your own winterization either before or after the main line winterization, that is up to you.
Thank You,

10.11.24
Repairs have been made, irrigation is back on. Water should be on for another week or two before it will be shut down for the season. Thanks!
10.9.24
WATER UPDATE The leak appears to be a break in the main line potentially a few feet deep. LiquiGreen will be starting the repair tomorrow and will keep me posted so I can update you. Also - Last year we turned the water off October 13 because of a main line break and the ditch being turned off shortly after that. This year the water should hopefully still be on until the 2nd to last week in October. The plan right now is to get this line fixed and still have the water on for a week or two after the fix. I will update everyone when we know more. Thanks.
10.7.24
WATER OFF
Water is off due to a main line leak. We will evaluate the leak next week and update everyone when we know more. Thanks.
9.30.244.22.24
WATER IS ON
Reminder, the water schedule for homes is from 5am-11am and 5pm-11pm. If you have a main line break at any point, please message us ASAP. There is a power shut off on the outside of the pump house for emergencies, but it’s preferable not to power off the pump that way unless absolutely necessary.
WATER UPDATE We have found a couple of small repairs that will need to be made to the main line before getting the water on. These repairs will be made today/tomorrow. We then need some time for the repairs to set and dry. The plan is still to have the water on by the end of the week. I will post another update when we know more.
Thank You,
4.12.24
>>REMINDER TO PLEASE ENSURE YOUR SYSTEM'S MAIN VALVE FROM THE MAIN HOA WATER IRRIGATION LINE IS CLOSED<< We will be turning the water on to the subdivision next week and we need everyone's main valve CLOSED until that process is completed.
Thank You!
IRRIGATION WATER 2024
Price Ditch that feeds our pump house irrigation water will begin being filled this week by Palisade Irrigation District. We will monitor our headgate and start filling our pump house as soon as possible. Once the pump house is full, we will give the water 48-72 hours to settle to avoid pulling a lot of sediment into the pump.
Water should be on for everyone next week. I will keep everyone posted.
NOW is a good time to check your main valve for any visible damage before we turn on the water. Please also make sure YOUR MAIN VALVE IS SHUT to allow us to fill the system and check for leaks. Thank You!
10.20.23
>>IRRIGATION WINTERIZATION<<
LiquiGreen will be winterizing (blowing out) the main irrigation line on Wednesday October 25th. Please ensure your main valve in your yard is CLOSED before Wednesday October 25th. This will help LiquiGreen winterize the line and ensure your personal system is not filled back up with water.
You can schedule your sprinkler winterization anytime. Please DO NOT blow water back into the main line (leave your main valve closed during winterization of your own system). If your system is like mine, there is a small amount of water left between the main valve and the filter after winterization. You can let this water back into the main line to avoid freezing issues after you are done winterizing. If you have questions, you can DM me on Facebook and I will try and answer them.
10.13.23
Due to the main line leak/break and Palisade Irrigation turning off the ditch water next week or the week after, we have made the decision to leave the water off for the season. LiquiGreen will be out next week or the week after to winterize the main line and locate and repair the main line leak.
PLEASE CLOSE YOUR MAIN VALVE NOW

10.09.23WATER IS OFF The water has been turned off for a main line leak. LiquiGreen will be taking a look at the leak today or tomorrow. We are being told the Palisade Irrigation company might be turning the water off as early as next week in the ditch that feeds our system. If that ends up being the case, the water most likely won't be turned back on for the season. If it's the week after next, we may still run it for another week after the repair.
We will keep everyone posted as we know more. Everything is up in the air at the moment.
Thank You
04.17.23
Water will be turned on sometime this next week. Please ensure your system is ready for water.
Please make sure your main valve is turned off before the water is turned on. This will ensure you can turn it on when you have time to check for leaks in your system. If you have a leak or break, contact us as soon as possible.
ONCE AGAIN: Please follow us on Facebook to get the most up to date news on the water and the ability to message the HOA directly if you have any water issues.

IRRIGATION WATER 2023
Monday April 10, 2023
We don't have a set date for the water to be turned on for the season yet. It looks like Palisade Irrigation District is starting to fill the Price Ditch this week and laterals over the next couple of weeks. I will keep everyone posted when we have a date for the water to be on.
Now is a great time to visually inspect your main valve for any visible damage/cracks. Repairing this now will ensure the system gets off to a good start this year.
REMINDER: Please consider following the HOA Page on Facebook if you don't already. This is by far the fastest way to get water updates throughout the summer. Anytime we have to shut the water off, Facebook is updated long before email and the website.

MAIN IRRIGATION LINE HAS BEEN WINTERIZED
The main line has been winterized for the season. Please make sure to winterize your own sprinkler system as temps are starting to dip below freezing.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on how your main valve and filter is configured, you may have water left between where you connect air to winterize your system and the main valve that comes from the main irrigation line. MAKE SURE to open your main valve AFTER you winterize to allow that small amount of water flow back into the main line. After a few minutes of letting the water drain into the main line, CLOSE the main valve again for the winter. This way your main valve won't freeze and break. If you already winterized, you still may need to open and close your main valve.
PLEASE DO NOT blow excess amounts of water into the main line, just the residual water between your main valve and the connection point where your sprinklers are blown out.
Thank You Everyone!!
10.20.22
WATER IS OFF FOR THE SEASON
Our pump lost prime and shut down again. We have already planned to have some extensive maintenance done to the pump over the winter and since we are 1 week out from our winterization of the main line, the decision has been made to keep the water off for the season.
PLEASE CLOSE YOUR MAIN VALVE IN YOUR BACKYARD
Our landscapers are scheduling our main line winterization. It will be sometime between now and October 31st. Since the main line is full of water, you cannot drain any water back into the main line until after we winterize the main line. Due to this, we suggest waiting to winterize your system until after the main line has been winterized. We will update this page once the main line has been winterized. Thank You!
5.6.22
WATER IS BACK ON! The repair of the main line is not leaking and the water has been turned back on to the normal schedule.
Water will be on 5am-11am and 5pm-11pm daily starting this evening. If anyone has any issues, please contact us ASAP.
Thank You for all your patience during this process.
5.3.22
WATER UPDATE
Water remains off. Our landscaper had a family medical emergency and had to take an unexpected trip out of town over the weekend. Due to this, work did not begin on the leak yesterday as planned. I called our HOA manager at Coldwell Banker yesterday morning to discuss hiring another contractor, but we wouldn't have saved any time since everyone is booked up. Our landscaper is back in town now and planning to get started on the repair shortly. I am still waiting for a specific day. I am sorry that the water remains off, but this couldn't be avoided. I will keep you all updated on your progress.
4.29.22
WATER UPDATE
The water remains off. Our landscaper is very behind on several of these type of breaks throughout different HOAs. Work to dig up the leak will start Monday and we hope to have water back on by Wednesday. Our HOA Management company rep told me this morning that we are 1 of 5 of his HOAs down for water line breaks right now. It's not been a good year for getting water going. The landscapers are working as fast as they can to get everyone taken care of. Thank you
4.21.22
WATER UPDATE >>PLEASE READ ENTIRE MESSAGE<<
We have located the leak and unfortunately it looks to be a main line leak pretty deep down. We will need to have an backhoe dig it up to assess the leak and get it repaired. For us to dig a hole that size it will require line locates (utility companies marking where utility lines run underground). Our landscaper is working to get this done as fast as possible. The line locates can take a few days to complete (we are at the mercy of the utility companies) and the job of digging up the leak and repairing it will take a few days as well.
The water will be off indefinitely at this time.
I have seen some comments about getting a more long term solution. The reality is, what we are doing is the best we can do. Every time we have a main line break, it occurs at a union (usually where the 6 inch line reduces to the 2 inch line into each yard). We are using the highest quality parts for these repairs to ensure that the same union won't break again. The company that originally built this system did not use the highest quality parts. If we were to try and replace the entire line, it would takes months, we would tear down fences and ruin landscaping, and would cost EACH owner thousands of dollars each. Not to mention, we wouldn't have water for months. To date, we have not had to repair the same valve or main line union break more than once due to the high quality parts and high quality work of our landscapers. This is just the reality of maintaining a system this large. One last note, all members of the HOA board and the owners of the landscaping company we use for these repairs all live in Silver Mountain. If you don't have water, neither do we. We want the water back on just as much as everyone. Thank you for everyone's patience as we work to get the water back on.
4.20.22
Water is off for repairs. More than likely it won't be back on until Friday. Thanks for your patience.

*HOA water was turned on today, however I just had a call from a homeowner @ 3155 F 1/4 Road with a broken main valve. Chance with LiquiGreen is going to look at it now. Hopefully he can get it repaired tomorrow and we can have water back on on Saturday. I will keep Facebook updated and let Barrett know so he can update the website
