Organization of the Homeowner's Association
The Cook's Ranch Homeowner's Association is organized and operates as stipulated in the Cook's Ranch Declaration of Protective Covenants and Cook's Ranch HOA Bylaws documents.
The owner of each lot in Cook's Ranch automatically becomes a member of the Association. Members of the Association meet at an annual meeting to discuss action items, vote on an annual budget and membership dues, and elect officers.
Annual dues are collected from each homeowner to pay for common area subdivision electric service, lawn maintenance of the entrance area, entrance area irrigation system and other related expenses. Dues also help to cover long-term maintenance of items such as street repair, sewer repair, gate maintenance, etc.
The Homeowner's Association can also levy assessments to cover the expense of larger maintenance projects.
