“Great Basin Wildlife Rescue is a non-profit specializing in wildlife rehabilitation. They are also educators in wildlife and environmental conservation. Great Basin Wildlife Rescue was established approximately 18 years ago specializing in the rehabilitation of bear cubs and birds of prey. They were the first rehabilitation center in the State of Utah to return rehabilitated bear cubs back into the wild. Each year they take in over 250 birds of prey and releasing back into the wild approximately 85%.”

New This Week

Conservancy Board of Directors Election

There are two Class A Member seats available on the Conservancy’s Board of Directors, with service starting January 2023. The successful candidates will serve a two-year term that expires in December 2024.

All Promontory owners are eligible for these positions, and a candidate need not reside at Promontory full-time or hold a Club membership to qualify. If interested in serving on the Board, please email a declaration of candidacy to Devin Ovard, no later than October 21st, 2022.

This declaration must include a résumé and statement describing one’s interest in participating, and will be shared with all Promontory owners for review. Instructions for voting will be sent out toward the end of October, with voting taking place throughout the fall. The results will be announced either at or immediately following the Conservancy Board’s Annual Meeting in December.

Pedestrian Safety

Please avoid walking/riding bikes along major roads. We understand that this is an active community, but traffic along Promontory Ranch Rd, Ranch Club Trail, Painted Valley Pass, and Golden Bear Loop creates too much risk for everyone involved. Your safety is of the highest priority. Measures have been taken to better control traffic and access, but as of now we encourage you to walk and ride on Promontory’s 30+ miles of trails.

Hit the trails, Promontory has 30+ miles of trials!

As a reminder, the trail system does not include the Golf Courses cart paths. Club rules state: Jogging, bicycling, fishing or recreational walking, including walking of pets is not permitted on the golf course at any time.

Holiday Decor & Lighting

Owners may display holiday decorations located or visible from outside their Residences if the decorations are of the kinds normally displayed in single-family residential Villages, are of reasonable size and scope, and do not disturb other Owners and residents by excessive light or sound emission or by causing an unreasonable amount of spectator traffic. Holiday decorations may be displayed in season only from November 1 to March 1 and, during other times of the year, from one week before to one week after any nationally recognized holiday.

In Case You Missed It

Vistor/Guest Gate Access

In the interest of maintaining the Promontory community as safe and secure as possible, please be sure to issue gate passes for all entrants that come onto the property on your behalf. This includes but is not limited to guests, vendors, package delivery services, and uber/lyft drivers. Doing so assures that all vehicles on property are accounted for.

Guest passes can be quickly created through the Promontory App by scrolling to the “Guests” section of the menu and selecting “Gate Pass Request.” You can also contact the gatehouse at (435) 333-4030 for assistance.

Tree Work

The trees around Promontory are a high priority. The Conservancy has contracted with an arborist to provide a comprehensive service to the trees. This includes disease control, fertigation, proper watering, improving soil PH levels, and responsibly disposing of trees that have died. We acknowledge that some trees appear poor, but we try to give them every chance to recoup and flourish. If you have any questions or concerns, please direct such inquires to the conservancy via email below.

Waterwise Community Efforts

If you have not done so already, please take a few minutes to read about the Conservancy’s efforts in making Promontory a water-wise community and what action is required on your part. Please note that our Design Guidelines have been updated to reflect new requirements for water-wise landscaping as well. There is a lot that you can do to slow the flow, especially as the local water districts are enacting cutbacks this year.

Noxious Weeds

Each owner must maintain a course of treatment to control weeds throughout the spring and summer. The Conservancy is particularly concerned with those noxious plants, like thistle (prickly stem and purple flower) and dyer’s woad (yellow flower), and offers this reminder that each homeowner is responsible for treating their respective lots to prevent the spread throughout the community. Such spread limits the resources and nutrients required by desired plants and trees.

To so see further weed control guidance please follow the link below.

Building Envelopes

All homes in Promontory have an established Building Envelope. The purpose of a Building Envelope is to ensure, as much as possible, that the natural landscape remains untouched. This is the only area within a lot where modifications can be made, including landscaping changes. One of the first items the Architectural Review Committee considers with each submittal is whether the landscaping and all structures fit entirely within the Building Envelope for the lot.

Landscape Plans Reminder

Remember that ALL landscaping must be submitted to and approved by the Architectural Review Committee. No landscaping is allowed outside of the Building Envelope. The best water wise landscaping utilizes the native plants on the Promontory Approved Plant list. Landscaping Design Guidelines can be found in Section 5 of the Design Guidelines.

Please contact Christine Morr if you have any questions.

Also, be sure to check the Supplemental Design Guidelines specific to your neighborhood. Some neighborhoods have very strict limitations.

Conservancy Reminders

Guest Gate Access & Visitor Policy

In response to the state of pandemic and to better monitor access to the community, the Conservancy’s Board of Directors has approved a change to public access through the gates. The gates will “close” at 7:00 pm. At that time, members of the public (i.e., not visiting a specific owner, not an approved vendor, just wanting to drive through) wishing to enter the community would be turned away. When gates are “open” (6:00 am-7:00 pm), members of the public wanting to drive through will be entered into a log with name and vehicle information and issued a pass to travel through to the other gate only.

During all hours, legitimate guests will be allowed access if a pass has been created by an owner-host or if the host can be contacted by telephone when the guest is at the gate. If the host cannot be contacted, the guest would be turned away. Gate staff will continue to follow protocol for real estate visitors to ensure limited disruption of showings.

As such, it is extremely important for Promontory owners to do two things:

  • Please enter a Gate Pass Request on the Member website or app for ALL guests ahead of their arrival.
  • Please provide a good phone number so you can be contacted if a pass has not been entered. Guests will be turned away if you cannot be contacted.

To add or update a phone number, please submit it to:

Equestrian Gate: (435) 333-4035 | Main Gate: (435) 333-4030

Trash Pick up

On trash pickup day, please keep all trash inside your dumpster, with the lid closed. Please DO NOT leave cardboard boxes, furniture, or anything else that won’t fit in the dumpster on the ground – the truck drivers will not stop to collect anything outside the dumpster. If your weekly trash is more than will fit in your dumpster, please contact Republic Services (435-615-8311) for another dumpster.

Please use your own garbage and recycling containers for garbage and recyclable materials. If you have more than your containers can handle, please DO NOT dispose of trash or recyclable materials in any dumpsters or trash bins located in Promontory. This includes but is not limited to dumpsters or bins near club facilities and construction sites.

  • Momentum Recycling offers at home glass recycling pick-up for $12/month! For more information & to sign-up click here.
    Recyclable materials can be taken to Recycle Utah in Park City.found Information can be found here.
  • For excess household garbage, Summit County has a landfill located east of Promontory. Information for the Three Mile Canyon Landfill can be found here.

Emergency Notifications

Some years ago Summit County created a system to provide phone, email, and text messages regarding emergencies. The system was upgraded such that anyone who previously signed up will need to sign up again.

The alert center also provides information about non-emergency matters in and about Summit County.
