Ruby Ranch Owner’s Association

What we do.

PURPOSE

Ruby Ranch is a covenant-controlled neighborhood with the goal of preserving the unique Western character of the ranch.

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Enforce the Covenants governing the Ranch, which are the principal policy guidelines for the Ranch, including Architectural Review. All owners sign their agreement to the Covenants before buying a property on Ruby Ranch. (See below for Covenant document)

• Maintain committees of Owners which initiate and carry out policies and projects:

  • Security, Architectural Review, Social/Communications, Fire Mitigation, Rental, all headed and staffed by volunteer owners. Please refer to Owner’s Home Page for more information about Committees and their priorities.

  • Maintain the Ruby Ranch website, which is the repository and reference source for finding policies. The nominal cost of the website will be paid by the WBMD General Fund.

• The RROA is entitled to propose financial assessments to the Owners for specific purposes, though assessments are quite rare and there is no on-going HOA fee, the lack of which somewhat offsets the relatively high Metro District tax rate.

MEETINGS

The RROA board meets at 2:30 PM virtually or at the Gatehouse, prior to the WBMD BOD meetings every other month. All meetings of the RROA Board of Directors are open to the public.

VOTING RIGHTS

All owners (whether of a lot with a home or a lot only) are eligible to vote for the five-member RROA Board, at the Annual HOA Meeting, held the first Saturday following Labor Day each year. RROA Board members serve staggered three-year terms. Undivided lots carry two votes. Divided lots carry one vote each and a simple majority wins a contested seat.

CONVENANTS AND POLICIES

Ruby Ranch Owner Covenants are currently under review. Please contact David Robbins for any questions.
