Parking

 

Wildernest is a densely populated community. Each property has designated parking spaces. These spaces were approved by the County and take into account lot size, drainage, snow storage, setbacks, and utility easements. With more and more full-time residents and short-term visitors in Wildernest, parking availability is more and more limited causing people to park on County roads and/or make-up illegal parking spaces on their property.

No Parking on County Roads

  • Parking on Wildernest roadways or right-of-ways (ROW) is illegal. Violators will be reported to the Summit County Sheriff, and the vehicle owner will bear towing and impound fees. For more information on ROWs, please refer to your properties plan or you can use the counties website to view online.

Dedicated Parking Spaces

  • Each property has specific parking spaces. Parking outside these designated areas is illegal and will result in a cease and desist order from Summit County, requiring restoration of the area. BMMD will also issue a Notice of Parking Violation with potential penalties.

Increasing Parking Spaces

  • To legally increase parking, a property site plan is required to assess setbacks, easements, drainage, and snow storage.

BMMD Protective Covenants – Parking Rules

  • No parking on unpaved areas (unless approved gravel).
  • No parking of unlicensed vehicles (unless covered).
  • No parking of commercial vehicles, or any vehicle overhanging roads, paths, or sidewalks.
  • No parking of recreational vehicles, boats, or utility trailers in front yards or driveways.
  • Violations will result in a Notice of Parking Violation and penalties.

Short-Term Rentals

  • Short-term rental listings should specify parking availability and restrictions. Visitors must be aware that street parking is illegal, with clear signage throughout the community.

Safety Concerns

  • Illegal parking poses safety risks and hinders snow removal operations. It is crucial to comply with parking rules to ensure safety.

Trailers, RVs, Boats

  • Trailers, boats, utility trailers, or RVs cannot be stored in front yards or driveways. They can be stored in garages or approved spots on the side or back of the property. Include these rules in lease agreements to avoid violations.
