Committees are the foundation of our governance. The Heather Gardens Metropolitan District(District) provides recreational services and facilities to the residents of Heather Gardens, as well as members of the public. The clubhouse includes meeting and class rooms, a library, swimming pools, exercise equipment, a billiards room, and provides a wide variety of classes and serves as a center for social activities and entertainment. The District includesIt includes a restaurant, a golf course, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and a recreational vehicle storage lot. The District also provides street improvements and maintenance of Linvale Place and landscaping adjacent to city streets in Heather Gardens. Committees research projects and policies and make recommendations to the Board. Please volunteer if you have an interest and a desire to make a difference.
We are constantly amazed at the level of expertise our volunteers bring to the table. But expertise is not required. We have volunteers who devote countless hours, learn the issues involved in operating the District, and offer common sense which can sometimes be pushed to the rear when dealing with complex problems. We want to hear from you. Below are the list of District committees and what they do. If a committee is full, you will be placed on a waitlist, so don't hesitate to apply.
