Important Notices

  • 911 Calls - All individuals observing a 911 emergency, need to first call 911, then call the Gatehouse.  This will help with relaying accurate, rather than partial, information to the dispatchers. 
     
  • Calling in Guests -  Reminder, a guest on your permanent guest list cannot call in their own guests.  A resident who is staying with you at your home and is logged into the system must be 18 years or older in order to call in guests.  Any guest who is 12 years or older must be called in to gain entrance onto the Ranch.  When calling in a guest, we ​require you to give us your member identification number.
     
  • Marina Parking - When signs are posted, only vehicles with current vehicle decals may park in the Marina area past the Fish Cleaning Station.  Please remind all your guests that they need to park in one of the dirt overflow areas.
     
  • Red Tags - Red tags will be needed seven (7) days a week from October 1 through the week before Memorial Day. *This will begin October 31st in 2024. Red tags allow you to temporarily park your recreational vehicles and vessels in front of your residence in your driveway (not on the street).  Thirty red tags, each good for one (1) day, will be allowed annually.  Red tags start over every January.  Red tags do not apply in new tracts, annexed into Heritage Ranch after 1986 (Tract 1910, 1990 and all future new tracts), or in Tracts 446 and 474 which amended their CC&Rs to allow parking year-round.  See Red Tag Instruction Sheet for additional information.
