BUFFALO RANCH COMMUNITY WEBSITE

find out more about the community. Stay tuned to the
next newsletter for more information.

If you would like a copy of the Draft meeting minutes please contact CAMCO.
What Is An HOA and What Do They Do?
The basic function of an HOA is to upkeep the home values within the community. In order to do that the HOA must take many different actions and implement
different policies. The Board of Directors are the decision makers for the HOA.
They engage vendors, sign contracts, decide on policies and rules, and other various items. The Management Company (CAMCO) carries out the Board’s decisions, makes sure the HOA is in good legal standing, and has direct contact with
the owners. In this newsletter we will discuss the complaint process.
All complaints must be in writing and sent to CAMCO. These can be emails, letters, or faxes. You will need to make sure you have the following information in
your complaint: 1) the address you are complaining about 2)what specifically is
occurring 3)photos if you have them 4) your name and address. All homeowner
complaints remain confidential and anonymous complaints will not be accepted.
The HOA has jurisdiction over certain things like: street parking, running a business from the home, and some noise issues. The HOA does not have jurisdiction
over rude behavior, criminal activity, or trespassing. When you send in your complaint you will receive a response with what items can be addressed and who to
contact if the item cannot be addressed by the HOA.
You can send in these complaints any time. Please do not wait for a Board meeting. The Board meeting is not the time to air your complaints; it is a time for the
Board to meet and make important decisions.
For any further questions please contact CAMCO.
Community Reminders
Rear Yard Landscaping Violations and Maintenance
It is important to have your rear yard landscaping installed for several reasons. For example it helps keep the dust
from blowing around the neighborhood and it keeps the blowing dust from possibly damaging your stucco.
One of the main reasons the HOA needs to approve the landscaping before it is in stalled it to check the setbacks on
the plants and trees. Plants need to be a minimum of three feet from the walls and trees need to be a minimum of
five feet from the walls. Irrigation needs to be a minimum of three feet from the walls. This helps prevent root damage to the walls and water leeching through the walls.
If you see any calcium buildup on your wall it is most likely from overwatering or an irrigation leak. Please check
your irrigation before the summer to make sure it is in good working order. If your neighbor’s irrigation is leeching
please try contacting the neighbor first to try to resolve the situation. If a resolution cannot be reached you can contact the Neighborhood Justice Center at 702-455-3898. They will try to come to an amicable solution for both parties.
If you have any questions on the violation or the ARC process do not hesitate to contact CAMCO.
Salt Cedar Weeds
Salt Cedar weeds (pictured below) are invasive weeds that
grow in another plant and eventually kill the host plant. In order
to save the original plant the Salt
Cedar will need to be pulled from
the root and weed killer sprayed
on the soil. During the last inspection many many Salt Cedars
were noticed. Some are now so
large they have killed the host
plant. Salt Cedars often get mistaken for a plant. To check to see
if you have a Salt Cedar look at
the base of the plant and if you
do not see an irrigation drip; it is
a Salt Cedar.
Trash and Trash Cans
The CC&Rs for the Community state that garbage needs to be placed in a covered container and placed out for pick-up no more than 24 hours before pick-up and must be
placed out of street view (in the garage or behind the rear yard gate) no more than 24
hours after pick-up. This means that bags, boxes, and larger items are not allowed to be
placed out. Below you will see photos of the correct and incorrect way to place your
trash out.
