Village East Metropolitan Districts
5 numbered metropolitan districts operate under the Village East name — a common structure where one development is financed and governed through a series of districts. Our plat matching places them in Arapahoe, Boulder, Larimer, Mesa, Weld County. A metro district is not an HOA: it's a local government with taxing power, and a property can sit inside both.
What this means if you own or are buying here
Metropolitan districts are special districts formed under Colorado law to finance and maintain a development's public infrastructure — streets, water and sewer lines, parks, drainage. Unlike an association, a district is a unit of local government: it is governed by an elected board, holds public meetings, issues bonds, and levies a mill levy on your property tax bill rather than dues it invoices you for.
Practical consequences worth knowing before a closing:
- It shows up on the tax bill, not in dues. The district's mill levy is collected with your property taxes, so it can be easy to miss when budgeting for a home.
- The debt outlives the builder. Districts commonly issue bonds to build infrastructure up front and repay them from that levy over decades.
- You can be in a district AND an HOA. They are separate bodies with separate rules, separate money, and separate contacts — being in one tells you nothing about the other.
- The board is elected and the meetings are public. As a property owner inside the district you can attend, run, and vote.

What it levies
Weld County certified these districts' mill levies for tax year 2025. A mill is one dollar per $1,000 of assessed value — not market value — and it is collected with your property taxes rather than billed as dues.
Where part of a figure is marked bond, that share repays construction debt the district issued — it is debt service on certified filings, not operations, and it ends when the bonds are paid off.
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 2 49.410 mills · 43.076 bond
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 1 45.889 mills · 40.006 bond
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 4 45.889 mills · 40.006 bond
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 5 45.889 mills · 40.006 bond
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 3 32.000 mills · 25.646 bond
Levies here range from 32.000 to 49.410 mills depending on which district covers the property. These do not add up — a parcel sits inside one of them, not all of them. Your tax notice names the one that applies to you.
In dollars: these districts were together certified to collect $370,134 for bond repayment in 2025 — debt service on money already borrowed to build here. (Unlike mills, dollars add: each district collects its own.) The outstanding principal behind that payment is in the audited filings below.

Source: each county's annual certification, compiled statewide by the Division of Property Taxation and published on the state's open geodata service, collected 2026-08-08. Years before 2024 come from Weld County certified mill levies, collected 2026-08-08. Certified annually under C.R.S. §39-1-111. We report the levy as certified and don't calculate anyone's bill — that depends on your property's assessed value and the assessment rate in force, both of which change. Your county assessor or treasurer can give you a figure for your address.
Watch this district. Levies are re-certified every December. Leave an email and we'll send one plain message a year — only if a levy here changes, with the old number, the new one, and the bond share. No newsletter, nothing else.
The records this district publishes
Colorado special districts are required to make their governance and finances public. These are the pages these districts publish on their own sites — we link them, we don't reproduce them, so what you open is always the district's current version:
Found by reading each district's own navigation, not by guessing addresses. Districts that publish nothing findable are simply absent here rather than shown with dead links. For the mill levy specifically, see "What it levies" above — reported from the certifications themselves; we never lift financial figures from a district's own budget PDFs.
Financial filings at the State Auditor
Every Colorado local government files annual financial statements with the Office of the State Auditor — audited statements, or an audit-exemption application for small budgets. This is where the authoritative outstanding-debt figures live. Each link below is that district's own filings page, year by year, with the PDFs:

- Village East Metropolitan District No. 3
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 1
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 4
- Village East Metropolitan District No. 5

Buying or selling in this district
A metro district doesn't issue the status letter an HOA must furnish at closing — but if an association also covers the property, that 14-day statutory clock still applies to it.
