General
Contracts for siding, decks, and garage doors are fixed-price with a specific stated total. Painting will also be a fixed-price contract. Any unanticipated work requires a formal change order reviewed and approved by CRC members and the independent owners’ representative before work proceeds.
Live owner questions were accepted during the first Zoom call with active dialogue between owners and the board.
Yes. Owners may occupy their units during construction. Deck access will be restricted during active deck work, and garage and vestibule access will be temporarily limited during door installation and painting.
The color committee started with James Hardie’s 17-color Mountain Region collection. Following architect guidance, they selected 3 palettes of 3 colors each. Only 2 options were presented at the first meeting; after owner feedback the third was added to the second meeting along with modifications to one earlier option. The final color was chosen by overwhelming owner vote.
No current estimate of increased unit value is available.
The project includes new siding, decks, painting, garage doors, entry doors, and gutters. Presentation slides have been sent to all owners.
The 2026 siding project assessment schedule has been sent to all owners. Further updates for 2027 and beyond will be provided. Several items are still being evaluated, including a potential tennis court survey.
The siding has exceeded its useful life. Insurance premiums rose from approximately $65,000 to over $520,000 due to fire hazard ratings. Hardie siding improves fire resistance, will not need repainting for approximately 25 years (vs. every 6-7 years at around $800,000 per cycle. Gutters, doors, and siding are all required HOA maintenance.
The pool and hot tubs will be open when use does not interfere with active work. Hot tub enclosures will be closed while nearby work is ongoing. Closures will be communicated via the portal.
Owner Action Items

Yes — you may move belongings inside your unit anywhere you like, as long as items are clear of the sliding glass doors and out of contractors’ way. You will be asked to sign a release.
Yes. Garage doors and entry doors were presented at the February owner Zoom meeting. Everyone received a copy of the PowerPoint with the Architects renderings.

Yes. The floor-to-ceiling space within the first 3 feet of the garage door must be completely clear. Tracks and doors are both being replaced in that zone.
Moving the car is $50 round trip away from the construction zones. Your key’s must be left at the Front Desk and you need to email theranch@MTN-resorts.com to be put on the schedule.
No. There is no shared association storage area available during the project. Owners are responsible for storing their own patio items.
Yes — the steel garage doors have an embossed wood-grain texture. The boards are approximately 6 inches wide, similar in appearance to a wood floor plank pattern.
The fee is a flat rate regardless of how much or how little is moved. $ 100 for one deck and $ 200 for two decks. This only the first 10 feet of firewood.
Deck railings are steel with square balusters. A physical sample is on display at the clubhouse and was shown during the owner Zoom update.
Garage doors are steel with polyurethane insulation (R-18.4). Entry doors are fiberglass with a wood texture, which improves the building fire rating.
