St. Mary's Metropolitan District does not allow parking on any of the roads in our area at any time. The Metro District will ticket vehicles that are illegally parked.

There is a ten foot easement along the sides of every road for snow removal, culvert, and road maintenance.

Paid parking is privately owned and operated. Please do not reach out to the POA with parking questions. There is a paid parking lot near the St. Mary's Glacier trailhead. electronic payment is accepted. There's another paid parking lot near Silver Lake.

House numbers are to be posted so to be seen visibly from the road. This is required as noted in the St. Mary's/Winterland covenants. Visible house numbers also allow Fire and Rescue Teams to quickly locate addresses in the event of emergencies.
