Highlands Ranch Community Association Releases March 2026 GM Report and Quarterly Newsletter

The Highlands Ranch Community Association released its March 2026 General Manager's Report on March 6, covering capital reserve planning, drought preparation, scholarship opportunities, and community events through its quarterly publication, EXPERIENCE 5920'.

CEO and General Manager Mike Bailey opened the report with a message rooted in the association's February all-staff meeting. "At the beginning of February, HRCA held an all-staff meeting to recognize the incredible efforts of our staff in achieving our 2025 goals and to set expectations as we look ahead to 2026," Bailey wrote. "It was an opportunity to reflect on a year defined by connection, progress, and purpose — and to thank our dedicated staff for the role they played in making it all possible."

The most substantive policy section in the March edition focuses on long-term financial stewardship. Under the heading "The HRCA Reserve Study Roadmap: Planning, Protecting, Preparing," the report describes how HRCA manages its capital reserves through a structured forecasting process. "HRCA's capital reserves are guided by a thoughtful and proactive planning process designed to protect the community's long-term assets," the report states. "At the heart of this effort is the Reserve Study, which serves as an essential budgeting and forecasting tool for the HOA. The study helps ensure that major capital components — such as facilities, infrastructure, and shared amenities — can be repaired or replaced when needed without unexpected financial strain." The report does not include specific reserve balances, component replacement timelines, or projected funding figures in the publicly available excerpt.

Beyond the reserve roadmap, the March edition's table of contents lists sections on supporting local nonprofits, preparing for drought conditions, the Highlands Ranch Community Scholarship Fund and an accompanying job fair, paint review season, upcoming events, and community partners. Specific details for those sections, including scholarship eligibility, award amounts, job fair dates and locations, and participating nonprofit organizations, were not included in the materials released publicly and would require direct inquiry to HRCA.

EXPERIENCE 5920' is published four times per year, in March, June, September, and December, and is designed to complement HRCA's monthly newsletter communications. The association has described the distinction between the two formats directly: "Unlike our monthly newsletters, which spotlight events, programs, and community stories, the EXPERIENCE 5920' Report takes a more business-focused approach, showcasing the full value of HRCA membership." The report's stated purpose extends beyond documentation: "We believe a well-informed community is a stronger community, and this report is not only a record of where we've been but also a conversation about where we're headed, together."

The quarterly publication uses a visual identity anchored in navy, light gold, and brown gold, color choices the association describes as "reflecting the professionalism and pride of our community."
