Proudly Serving the Hulet and Devils Tower Community
The County Commissioners have begun the process to approve a new service and improvement district for Warbonnet Canyon Estates.
The 847-acre subdivision hosts tracts ranging from 35 to 48 acres and is located ten miles north of Hulett and next door to the 476-acre Warbonnet Canyon Ranch, owned by the same developer.
Sandcreek Investments 5, LLC, a Nevada-based company, filed a petition for a service and improvement district with the commission. The purpose of the district, according to that petition, would be to, “repair and maintain the roads” within the defined area and may also provide subdivision governance for homeowners.
The board of directors for the district would be authorized to establish monthly assessments for residents in order to establish a fund for road maintenance and repair and provide any other service or benefit approved by homeowners. The petition states that it is not anticipated that any financing will be necessary in the first year.
The petitioners themselves are three members of Sandcreek Investments 5: John Rasmussen and Angel Fajardo of Las Vegas, Nevada and Lori Huffman of Naples, Florida.
After filing of the petition with the County Clerk’s Office, the Wyoming Department of Revenue and Crook County Assessor’s Office have 80 days to respond, after which there will be a public hearing. On Wednesday, the commissioners passed a motion to accept the petition and set a hearing date for August 2 at 10:30 a.m.
