IMPROVEMENTS AND MAINTENANCE
  • chevron_rightIs an area or property in the City or County? What difference does it make?
    Many concerns and problems, such as illegal dumping or chained dogs, are outside the authority of the HOA and residents should report these incidents to either the City of San Antonio or to Bexar County, depending upon where the incident occurred.

    For information about whether a property or area is in the City or County, click here.
     
     
  • chevron_rightWhat's the procedure for requesting changes to the outside of my home or property?
    Homeowners will need to have approval for any major changes to the outside of the home or landscaping.
     
    1. Complete the application, ACC Improvement Request 
    2. Submit the form to Real Manage at STORANCH@ciramail.com
    3. Real Manage will review the application for completeness, then forward it to The Stonewall Ranch Architechrual Control Committee (ACC), which has 60 days to consider it. Keep in mind that all members of the ACC are volunteers from the neighborhood with busy schedules. When planning a project, allow sufficient time for full approval.
    4. The ACC will review each application to verify that it meets the standards set in the covenants and guidelines of the Stonewall Ranch Association.
     
    Carefully read the covenants and guidelines before starting any major project. Some, including decks and additions, will require local governing body permits and approval, as well. Permits needed will depend upon whether your property is within the City of San Antonio or in Bexar County. 
     
     
  • chevron_rightHow do I report a problem such as the gate not working, damaged signs, etc.?
    We are all the eyes and ears of our neighborhood. If you see a problem, do not assume that someone else has reported it. 
     
    Please report any of these or similar problems:
    --gates not working
    --damage or problems with the clubhouse or pool
    --damage to signage
    --graffiti
    --debris in waterways
    --any other damage or common property issues

    Contact Real Manage at 1-866-4-RealService (866-473-2573) or at STORANCH@ciramail.com to notify our property manager. You may also use the Contact Us tab to notify the HOA Board of Directors. 

    Problems such as illegal dumping, chained dogs, and so on, need to be reported to either the City or the County. See the City or County? circle link on the Home page for more information. 
  • chevron_rightHow do I report streetlight outages?
    Streetlights are important for the safety and security of the neighborhood. Residents who see a streetlight out should report the outage to RealManage ASAP at STORANCH@ciramail.com. Per CPS, the light should be repaired in 0-5 business days. If it has not been repaired, follow up with RealManage. 
     
    NOTE: Do NOT use the CPS Streetlight Outage Reporting website. That system will take the report, but the repair will not be made because the HOA needs to order the work.
     
     
     
  • chevron_rightWho is responsible for sidewalk maintenance and repair?
    Homeowners are responsible for maintaining sidewalks along their property. 
     
    According to the HOA covenant, specifically Section 5.15, Homeowners are responsible for maintenance and repair of sidewalks adjacent to the Owner’s lot:
     
    “. . .Each Owner shall be responsible for the maintenance and repair of the sidewalk adjacent to such Owner’s Lot after construction, and shall maintain such portion of the sidewalk in a good condition of repair.” (end of paragraph)
     
    This is similar to regulations established by the City of San Antonio regarding sidewalks:
     
    If a Homeowner repairs a sidewalk to its original state, Board or ACC approval is not necessary. However, if there is a need for changes, then the work would need prior ACC approval.

    The HOA is responsible for maintaining sidewalks that abut HOA property only, such as those along the clubhouse and pool, along bridges, and so on.

  • chevron_rightWhat do I need to know about water usage in San Antonio and how do I contact SAWS?
    Those new to the San Antonio area will want to familiarize themselves with water usage policies and restrictions. We live in a drought-prone region that requires frequent outdoor usage restrictions, and it is important to know if we are under Year-Round, Stage 1, 2, 3, or 4 restrictions.

    All Stonewall Ranch residents, even those in Bexar County, have water and sewer service from SAWS (San Antonio Water System).
     
    Year-round watering restrictions allow landscape watering with an irrigation system or sprinkler any day of the week before 11 a.m. or after 7 p.m. At no time is irrigation system watering allowed between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m.
     
    Learn about the current watering status and other water information on the SAWS website.
