RUMOR brought to Jimmy's Camp:
The city won’t fix the parking lot at the Safeway. (Markets at Mesa Ridge).
Jimmy's Fact to Trade:
That rumor is true, but there’s actually a bit more to the story. As a private commercial entity, the Markets at Mesa Ridge is responsible for repair and maintenance on their own parking lot and drive areas, not the taxpayers of the City. They manage their property through a property management company, who is currently Colorado Association Services.
Although the City does not maintain private parking lots, it has heard from citizens and has made (and continues to make) multiple attempts to work with the property manager to address the issues there.
Specifically, the Safeway owns and is responsible for their parking lot. A board made up of other Mesa Ridge business owners are responsible for the remainder of the parking areas. In recent contacts with the Board by the city, they have indicated that they are in the process of addressing the issues. The city remains in contact with the Property/Community Manager regarding the issue.
