Residents of the Roxborough Park Foundation community have expressed concerns regarding the potential impact of new home constructions on their views and enjoyment of their properties. During a recent government meeting, discussions centered around the proposed development of four new homes along the northern portion of Sleepy Bear Trail and Roxboro Drive North.

Opponents of the project voiced their objections, claiming that the new constructions would completely obstruct their views and violate nuisance laws. One resident articulated that the construction would lead to a \"loss of ability to enjoy life.\" However, representatives for the developer, Rovanna, countered these claims by citing Colorado law, which does not recognize a property owner's right to a view unless explicitly granted through easements or local regulations. They emphasized that no such agreements exist with the Roxborough Park Foundation or its residents.

Rovanna's team presented digital renderings to illustrate the distances between the proposed homes and existing residences, noting that the new homes would be situated at least 75 yards away and approximately 20 feet lower in elevation than the adjacent properties. They argued that the grading of the lots would minimize any obstruction to views of the Hogback, Colorado's Eastern Plains, or the Denver skyline.

The developer also referenced the Roxborough Park Foundation's own design guidelines, which permit structures up to two visible stories plus a roof. They questioned why the proposed homes, which would adhere to these guidelines, would negatively impact the enjoyment of neighboring properties.

As the meeting concluded, the discussion highlighted the ongoing tension between property development and the rights of existing homeowners, raising questions about the balance between new construction and the preservation of scenic views in the community.
