Primarily by taxes levied at the state, county, and local level. The majority comes from property taxes. LLMD has a voter approved 10 mill levy which means that for every $1000.00 of assessed value of your home the metro district receives $1.00.
Board Members serve staggered 4-year terms and are elected in odd numbered years. To be eligible to run for election you must first be a registered Colorado voter AND own property or live in Loma Linda.
Candidates for office are solicited via an announcement in the newspaper, posted at the entrance bulletin board, posted on this website, and via postal mail unless an email is provided to the county at which time that is used instead of postal mail.
Historically Directors have been elected by acclimation without an official election as only 1 time (2023), in the 20+ year history of the LLMD have we had more volunteers than open positions.
If you are interested, your best approach is to contact a current member of the LLMD and discuss options for joining the Board.

Typically, the plows attempt to leave 2 or so inches of snow on the roads. This keeps the roads from being damaged. Plowing does not occur until 3 or more inches of snow has fallen. This can vary greatly as snowfall in the back of Loma Linda is often considerably more than the front of Loma Linda.
Also, to avoid multiple passes to plow small amounts of snow the plows come out when snow has ended or early in the mornings. When long continuous snowfalls occur, the plows may come out while snow is still falling but always before depths become impassable.
Finally, it is the owner’s responsibility to clear their drives and any “berms” that my occur when the snow plow clears the roads. Snow from berms or drives should NOT BE PUSHED ACROSS THE ROADs, this is in fact against state law and violations can result in fines.
