Podcast: Reasons to update the ranch CC&RsPMRHOA Treasurer Andrew Pagel and PMRHOA Area Rep and CC&Rs Committee Chair Ted Bonnitt discuss the motivation behind the proposed CC&Rs. They are speaking as private owners on the ranch and are not speaking for the PMRHOA Board. They discuss the reasons behind the biggest initiatives of the CC&Rs: strengthening owner rights and protections with updated rules, caps on new home sizes and nightly rentals.
Click here to listen. Podcast: Nightly Rentals on the Ranch from a Law Enforcement PerspectiveNightly Rentals on Pine Meadow Ranch is one of the most discussed topics concerning the proposed CC&Rs. Currently, there are no restrictions on nightly rentals in Pine Meadow Ranch. The proposed CC&Rs give owners the choice of allowing them to continue or to stop them all together. Without new CC&Rs in place to control them, there could eventually be significant commercialization of the ranch with short term rentals.
Just about everyone has an opinion about nightly rentals. The CC&Rs Committee wanted to find out from an unbiased, local law enforcement perspective what, if any risks multiple nightly rentals may pose to the ranch. Dr. Christina Sally is a career police officer and has been Investigator for the Summit County Attorney's Office for 12 years. She joins Ted Bonnitt, PMR CC&Rs Committee chair to discuss her concerns about nightly rentals on the ranch. Click here to listen. 
How to vote for the proposed CC&RsVoting is being conducted by a ballot and solicitation process. Voting will be open until October 1, 2020. But please vote as soon as possible! Look for your ballot in your email box. A printed ballot has also been mailed to all owners. You may request a replacement ballot at ccrs@pinemeadowranch.org.
The voting process is being conducted in accordance with the following Utah State statute: https://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title16/Chapter6A/16-6a-S709.html… REMEMBER- By state law, all votes have to be cast. If you don't vote, it must be counted as a NO vote against approving a critical update of our 50 year-old CC&Rs. Every YES vote counts! We need over 500 YES votes by owners to get the critically needed update to our CC&Rs ratified. Every ranch owner's vote is needed for this effort to succeed. Whatever your preference, PLEASE VOTE! This is the first CC&Rs vote in ranch history. The existing CC&Rs were only declared during the infancy of the ranch in the early 1970s. Thank you! 
The Voting Draft of the Proposed CC&Rs Has Been Emailed to Owners.There is also a newsletter included to explain the document and the upcoming vote. If you have not received them, please email us with your name and lot information to: ccrs@pinemeadowranch.org. You can download the newsletter here.
The previous newsletters can be found HERE and HERE. Why Vote?The ranch is experiencing a surge in development. Our community has grown from a part-time cabin retreat to an exurb with over 130 full time homes. Larger homes are being built. The rapid growth is challenging our infrastructure while redefining our community. Updating our CC&Rs will help preserve the unique character of Tollgate.
Updating our CC&Rs requires a 67% “yes” vote by all owners. That translates to over 500 “yes” votes, a tall order for any HOA. If you do not vote, your vote will be counted as a “no” vote. That is why the entire community must get involved in updating the CC&Rs to help protect your investment in our ranch’s natural beauty and wildlife. Why update the CC&Rs?CCRs are the rules on which all legal decisions are based on behalf of the ranch.
Our current CCRs were written in the early 1970's. Some of the rules are poorly defined and hinder the board’s ability to govern. Furthermore, there are multiple sets of CCRs that are contradictory and potentially expose the HOA to costly litigation. The update is intended to close our legal vulnerabilities, clarify the rules and address new issues that have arisen on the ranch since the current CC&Rs were drafted nearly 50 years ago.
