Q: How soon can I expect to have service?
A: Hilltop needs a certain level of commitment from home owners to begin construction. The high cost of installing cables for a new fiber optic system can only be offset if we have enough homes sign up. For Soaring Peaks we are requiring that a minimum of 70% of homes pre-sign for service.
Q: How can Hilltop just come in and build a fiber system without permission from home owners or the HOA?
A: Hilltop will be building it's fiber optic system in the existing Rights of Way and Utility easements that are dedicated for this purpose when the neighborhood was platted and recorded in 2001. These areas were dedicated to this purpose by the land developer as part of Larimer County's development requirements. Public Utilities have the right to construct and maintain systems within these areas.
Q: Are you going to tear up my yard and leave a mess?
A: No. We utilize trenchless cable installation that minimizes impact to landscaping. Our crews are Hilltop employees - not contractors so we ensure that our crew does the job right.
Q: What are all the colored flags and paint in my front yard about?
A: These flags and markings are from other utilities marking their existing underground cables and pipes. Those marking are required by Colorado law for us to safely install our cables. Please leave them in place so we can safely install our cables for service to your neighborhood. Removal of the flags or paint marks is a misdemeanor under Colorado law.
