Beginning March 1st, 2023 ID badges replaced all stickers from all years prior to 2023. As a result, you will need a BCLO identification badge to use the parks and the trash dump as well as any future amenities added to Beaver Creek. Below is a comprehensive overview of those ID cards. Below is what a card will look like.
Each card will have basic information used by office staff when owners come to pay dues, or to be returned to the owner in the event it is lost. It will also have basic contact information about BCLO so owners will have access to private pages on the LOA website, and whom to email with questions. You may also use the contact us form.
All cards will look very similar to the card example posted above. The colors will be different and instead of the BCLO Treasurer / VP / Secretary, etc, it will say ” Land Owner “, ” Renter “, ” Dependent “.
FAQ
When does my card expire?
Each card is good for 5 years. Your first year will include an empty space towards the bottom of the card ( See image below ):
Each year thereafter owners will need to come to the office and have a new stamp printed in that space (in total, it will hold 4 stamps). The same card is used for each stamp each year. The stamp is printed onto the card and can not be reproduced. Once the bottom section has been fully used with stamps, a new card will be issued at that time.
What if my card breaks or the ink rubs off?
If your card is physically broken, the replacement fee is $20.00. If the card is damaged due to the product itself (the ink overlay) BCLO will replace the card for you at no additional cost. The card must be illegible before it can be considered damaged.
Do I have to have my picture on my card?
No, you do not. However, if you chose to not have an image on your card you will be required to show identification with your image on it along with your BCLO card to confirm you own the card. The ID check will be enforced when using amenities in Beaver Creek.
How much will I have to pay for cards?
BCLO Landowner Cards are completely free when you pay your dues. That fee includes the cost of the card. you will be provided the following cards for your household.
- 2 Landowner Cards
- 1 Dependent Card
- 2 Renter Cards (If applicable) *Landowners who reside outside of beaver creek but have renters would be issued cards on an as-needed basis.
Card replacement fees go back into the general ledger for BCLO and are used for BCLO activities and bills.
Who needs a card?
Anyone residing in Beaver Creek, whether landowner or renter, needs a card to dump trash, or use neighborhood amenities; parks, ponds, etc. We will only issue cards to both landowner and renter if both parties reside at the same property. Dependents will be issued a card with a beaver as an image instead of the resident. The dependent card can be used for all children in a household. If a dependent wishes to go fishing, and takes a brother or sister, a single card would be used. Dependent cards are for children under the age of 18 living in Beaver Creek under the age of 18. Anyone over 18 will not be issued a dependent card.
What if I lose my card?
If you lose your card, a replacement is $20.00. We suggest that you place your landowner badge in your car at all times so it is always available to you. Each household is issued two cards when dues are paid each year—unless a dependent or renters are involved. The owner of the card must be the one using the card to access Beaver Creek services.
Why are the cards different colors?
Some cards have different color bars across the top and bottom of the card to signify status. For instance, landowners are blue, dependents are orange, Renters are Yellow, and Staff members are Red. This enables the LOA representatives to quickly determine the type of card used for access to a service in Beaver Creek.
Who do I have to show my card to?
Anyone who asks to see your card while at a park, using the lakes, or dumping your trash must be able to show you a valid staff badge (red across the top and bottom) as they have either been hired by BCLO, Inc. to enforce badges, or they are staff of Beaver Creek who have been tasked to confirm valid landowner cards while using BCLO services, or a BCLO board member. You are not obligated to show your card to anyone when you are not voting at an annual meeting, using a Beaver Creek lake, using a Beaver Creek park, or using the Beaver Creek dump. Landowner cards are used exclusively to confirm resident status / dues paid while using Beaver Creek services or voting at an annual meeting.
Does my child have to have his or her name listed on the cards?
No. Each dependent card will display the family’s last name followed by “Dependent.” For example, any child of Paul Koch would receive an orange card that reads “Koch Dependent” rather than the child’s individual name. The card will also include the ID number and BCLO contact information. It will not include a 911 address or section/lot information.
