Welcome! You’ve stumbled upon a unique repository of information about The Knolls—an exclusive trove not found anywhere else, although the information should have never been this elusive.
Within these pages lies detailed explanations highlighting why it appears homeowners at The Knolls have been less than thrilled, possibly due to being misled with inaccurate information, seemingly orchestrated to coerce them into paying HOA fees over the past 14 years, without merit.
Should this not serve as a glaring alert to the Board of Directors of Power Ranch and the entire community, it’s hard to imagine what else could highlight the glaring oversight and mismanagement. Not to mention the advice from a certain law firm that, in conjunction with the management company, might be perceived by some as a scheme to disadvantage homeowners.
This page is resolutely committed to demystifying everything you should know about what is often deceptively referred to the “benefitted community” or perhaps it be rightfully be renamed to the debunked subassociation of Power Ranch, known as The Knolls (legally known as Power Ranch Neighborhood 9, formerly Power Ranch Neighborhood 9 Community Association, and Knolls Subassociation).
Let’s dive right in, shall we?
NOTE to all non-Knolls residents: Don’t make the mistake of thinking this message doesn’t concern you! Keep in mind that missteps by our management and legal “advisor” impact the entire Master community — yes, that includes the Master! Read on…
If you are a Knolls resident, you may have wondered why you have 2 association dues? Well according to the 2006 CC&R’s, you were rightfully assessed 2 association dues, one for The Knolls subassociation, and the second to the Master Association – Power Ranch. However, there appears to be a 2nd set of CC&R’s filed in 2011 that is no where to be found on Power Ranch’s website that actually changes everything.
To fully comprehend the scope of our present circumstances, we need to thoroughly explore the history of the Knolls Subassociation, beginning in the year 2005 & 2006, when the initial Declarant recorded the plans, plat map, and CCR’s for what we know today as the Knolls and at the time of the filing Power Ranch Neighborhood 9 Community Association.
The importance of this document is:
1.) outlines all types of properties included in 2005 Parcel 1 Plat Map,
2.) Defines areas of responsibility and ownership,
3.) Provides definitions of Tracts “M” and Tracts “S”
**NOTE: The difference in dues between single family homes vs. bungalow/patio homes in the “Knolls” is $34; therefore, based on this information, the Neighborhood 9 bungalow and patio homes are to be assessed ONLY an additional $34, plus the master association dues. Single family homes should not be assessed $214/month as it is the Master’s responsibility. That is a savings of $856.00/year for each homeowner in Neighborhood 9, including the condos. (These are all estimated numbers, exact amounts will be determined after reviewing contracts.)
