Show All Answers

1. Who is responsible for maintaining the gutter, curb, sidewalk, storm ditch and the landscaping adjacent to the street?

In most cases, the abutting property owner is responsible for this maintenance. In some instances – where the town is the abutting property owner or where a local improvement district (LID) has been created – the town is responsible for this maintenance. If you are unsure whether or not you are paying to participate in a LID, please contact Public Works at (970) 748-4100.

2. I would like to beautify the right-of-way abutting my property - what kind of plants or other materials can I place there?

The town encourages beautification efforts but only allows a limited list of plants and other materials to be placed in the right-of-way so that there is no negative impact to the traveling public, traffic flow, plowing, storm water flow, or other operations. The Town is not responsible for the care or maintenance of any plants or other materials placed in the right-of-way. For more information, please contact Public Works at (970) 748-4100 or email mlach@avon.org

3. Can I drive and/or park on a non-motorized trail with a car, motorcycle, or moped?

No. Trails are for non-motorized vehicles and emergency vehicles only.

4. Can I volunteer to do trail maintenance?

Absolutely! Please call Public Works at (970) 748-4100 to find out when the next trail work party will be held.

5. I have a suggestion for a park improvement, who do I contact?

Please call Public Works at (970) 748-4100 or e-mail us (rjanusz@avon.org)

6. Do I need a permit to sell goods in the park?

Yes. Contact the Town Clerk at (970)748-4000 to obtain a peddler’s license.
