ORIGINAL VISION
The earliest Stonebridge Ranch marketing brochures printed in the late 1980s promised a beautifully executed community comprised of residential villages and first-class amenities. Said the developers: “Stonebridge Ranch will combine the best elements of the most successful hometowns across the United States, providing residents with the security and comfort of a suburban hometown as well as the sophistication of an urban environment. The community will include wide-ranging residential categories, extensive recreation facilities, and numerous support services.”
OUR VISION TODAY
We have an impressive history >. Countless people over the past three decades–from homeowners to volunteers and professional staff–have supported the early vision to create the community we know and love today. In 2013, the Board of Directors > drafted the association’s first Strategic Plan and put into words the vision and mission that carry us forward in the support of these long-term goals.
VISION STATEMENT To be the premier, large scale, master planned community of choice in North Texas.
MISSION STATEMENT To preserve and enhance the quality and natural beauty of Stonebridge Ranch for our residents by offering attractive amenities, active lifestyle opportunities, and leadership which protects property values and the financial health of the community.
Today the Board of Directors, our six volunteer committees >, and our on-site staff > seek to uphold these values in every decision they make on behalf of the homeowners association. But they can’t do it alone. Each property owner and resident has the opportunity to contribute to the long-term success of Stonebridge Ranch based on choices they make today.
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS MADE BY HOMEOWNERS
- Kindness toward one’s neighbors. We love to hear stories of all the different ways our residents support each other! We feature many of these tales in our monthly magazine, Stonebridge Ranch News >.
- Prompt payment of annual assesments. The association sends annual statements at the end of November. Annual assessments > are due January 1 and considered past-due as of January 31. With the collected dues, we are able to preserve and enhance our neighborhoods in countless ways, such as maintaining and upgrading landscaping in common areas >; repairing and replacing monuments when needed; maintaining and improving our amenities > portfolio; providing professional support staff; and so much more.
- Attention to collective curb appeal. Residents who read and follow the Modification Design Guidelines > enhance their own homes while also preserving a coherent and premier look throughout our community as a whole.
- Productive feedback. When making choices on behalf of the entire community (9,400 + homes and 36,000+ residents), our volunteers and staff must take every aspect of a decision into consideration, from budget to long-term impact. Residents play an important support role in strategic decision-making by providing constructive questions > and suggestions.
THANK YOU, EVERYONE!
Together, we continue to build a community like no other–one we are happy to call home! Maintaining a community of this size according to the standards established by our governing documents > is a collective effort. Each year our residents and Board and committee members contribute an impressive level of resources—monetary, as well as time and effort—to ensure that Stonebridge Ranch remains a nationally renowned association. From every annual assessment that is paid, to every lawn that is well-tended and every hour of service given by volunteers, Stonebridge Ranch thrives because tens of thousands of people do their part.
