Board Members serve one year terms. The Board is responsible for protecting and enhancing the property values and quality of the neighborhood (enforcing the covenants), maintaining the Common Area, collecting annual assessments, exercising Architectural Review on exterior modifications, and building a sense of community. If you are interested in joining the Board or participating on a sub-committee, please contact a Board member. Volunteers are highly valued!
Amy Aranda, President and Secretary

The Aranda’s enjoy traveling, hiking, camping, skiing, cycling, climbing and just about anything involving the outdoors. Professionally, Amy has served in the military for 19 years and is a current member of the Air Force Reserves at Peterson SFB. Jarrod works at the Air Force Academy as well as for United Airlines. Amy volunteered for the HOA board as a means to get involved with the community. She regards Pinon Valley as a beautiful and vibrant neighborhood, and looks forward to the opportunity to meet more residents as well as contribute to the maintenance and the culture of the neighborhood.
John Cotterman, Treasurer
John is an original owner and lives at 5595 Flag Way along with his wife Patricia. John is originally from Michigan, and Patricia is originally from upstate New York. John retired from Colorado Springs Utilities where he was a Computer Systems Administrator. He enjoys traveling, hiking, roller blading, skiing, and reading. John was inspired to join the board by the words of another board member. “Every board member listens to each other’s opinions respectfully and with an open mind, even when there is disagreement.” He wants to share his opinions, and if there is disagreement, talk it out to gain understanding from his colleagues.
Jeff Hansen, Member at Large
Jeff lives on Flag Way and moved into the neighborhood in 2002. He works as a mail carrier for USPS and enjoys skiing in his free time. One of the things he loves about living on the West side of Colorado Springs is the opportunity to see wildlife. Jeff’s close neighbors know him to be a handy, good-natured neighbor that is willing to lend a tool or a helping hand. Jeff joined the HOA Board in 2020 because he liked the direction the Board was going with the neighborhood and wanted to support that effort. He hosted the Ice Cream Social in his driveway in 2021, marking the first community event on Flag Way in at least 5 years.
Molly Geronazzo, Member at Large
Molly moved into the neighborhood the week before the Waldo Canyon Fire in 2012! She used to take walks through Pinon Valley HOA and it was a dream come true when a home here became available during their house search. Molly is a licensed therapist and busy mom of three kids, Juliana (20), Jake (16), and Josh (11). Her husband Pete is from Canada. He likes hockey and tells a good dad joke (if such a thing exists). Molly grew up in Mississippi and has lived in in Colorado since her days as a student at Colorado College. She enjoys working out with friends, spending quality time with loved ones, celebrating festive holidays, laughing at Pete’s dad jokes, and cheering for the hockey players in her family. She hopes to bring her calm, practical approach to problem-solving to the Board and looks forward to being a kind steward of the community.
