CommunityNavigators
Friendly Neighbors Help You Navigate Your Move
Moving can be challenging, to say the least. But here to help are Sterling Ranch’s newest community volunteer group, the Community Navigators. The Community Navigators are here to do exactly that – help new homeowners navigate the transition into life here in Sterling Ranch. While the Sterling Ranch Community Authority Board (CAB) is always here to help, outreach from other residents offers an informal and personal alternative.
“As a new homeowner, I was so overwhelmed when I moved here two years ago,” says lead volunteer Kerri Buted, a resident of Prospect Village “Last spring I had this silly brainchild,” she continues “I thought, what if other residents could just call new homeowners and ask what we can help them with? We can answer questions or introduce them to other new residents The idea is to help people start off with a positive experience ”
The idea has taken off, with a current group of 15 Navigators Sterling Ranch averages over 33 home sales each month, and the volunteers split the new residents according to their village; new Prospect Village buyers with established Prospect Village residents, for example. “For those new residents, getting a friendly call from a neighbor can make a big difference and help them feel welcome,” explains Buted. The Navigators invite newcomers to the monthly New Homeowner Orientation meeting, which introduces a lot of good but sometimes overwhelming information. After the initial phone call, the Navigators help new neighbors find activities and clubs and offer ongoing communication.
“We are committed to welcoming and helping new homeowners,” says Buted. “I think the personal outreach is really making a difference.”
One of our Community Navigators will reach out to you (if they haven’t already) to help you settle in. Or contact communitynavigators@sterlingranchcab.com for more information and a friendly connection.

Pet Reminders
Sterling Ranch is a dog-friendly community, and we want both humans and their furry companions to enjoy our outdoor lifestyle. However, certain rules are necessary to keep our residents, pets, and wildlife safe and our open spaces clean If you witness any violations related to pet issues or pet waste, please report them directly to:
Douglas County Animal Services - 303-660-7529.
Animal Services officers randomly patrol Sterling Ranch and issue tickets to pet owners who violate the rules Please follow the Douglas County Rules and Regulations listed below:
As a dog owner, you are responsible for picking up and properly disposing of your dog’s waste both on and off your property.
There are no off-leash areas in Sterling Ranch. All dogs must be on a leash when off the owner’s property. Chatfield State Park offers a nearby off-leash dog park. Your dog must not bite, injure, chase, threaten, bark, howl at or disturb anyone. Cats should be kept inside or confined to their owner’s property for safety.
To help keep our community clean, the CAB has placed pet waste stations along the trails and sidewalks throughout Sterling Ranch. Please be a good neighbor and pick up after your pets and offer a neighbor a dog waste bag if they are without one. Remember, cleaning up after your pet is the right thing to do, helps prevent parasites and disease, and keeps Sterling Ranch a clean, pleasant area for everyone to enjoy!

Land Use: Respect and Enjoy
3,539 Total Acres with 1,300 Acres of Preserved Open Space
Life here begins with the land Sterling Ranch is nestled near the foothills of the majestic Rocky Mountains, offering scenic views, open space, wildlife, parks and trails Our goals reflect our respect for the land, and we strive to leave the smallest imprint possible on this spectacular natural environment, from our water management system, our prairie management plan, and our partnership with the Clough Cattle Company As our cattle rotate through the surrounding pastures, they graze down overgrowth -- which helps with fire mitigation -- and aerate and fertilize the soil, improving the quality of the land itself
30 Miles of Biking and Walking Trails Planned Sterling Ranch provides open space to preserve the ecosystem and wildlife corridors Housing is strategically blended with trails and open spaces to allow ample opportunity to enjoy and explore the land
Water Conservation
Our community values water conservation We have designed our homes and lots to maximize water stewardship and are proud to be Colorado’s first and only rainwater harvesting pilot project site We are also the first community in Colorado to implement a dual-meter water system in our homes This system separates indoor and outdoor water usage, enabling our residents to adjust their water usage to conserve water effectively and conveniently
History of Sterling Ranch
Sterling Ranch is unique. It’s been under the stewardship of only three families -all Colorado natives -- for over 160 years.
The Sterling Family established the ranch in the 1860s, and it was used for ranching and farming for over a century. In 1980, Frank and Joy Burns purchased the original 2,200-acre Sterling Ranch from a Denver bank. Later, in 2004, Joy Burns sold the ranch to Harold and Diane Smethills, both multi-generation Colorado natives with extensive experience in real estate, water, and business. The Smethills also bought two smaller neighboring land holdings to make Sterling Ranch the size it is today
Today Sterling Ranch is a place for everyone. We are a large, diverse community of people from all backgrounds and ages living in singlefamily homes, townhouses, and apartments Sterling Ranch is big enough for people to work and play here but small enough for people to still know each other.
“When we first set foot on this land we felt a deep connection to something greater than ourselves Something that roots us to a sense of freedom nature adventure We knew it had to be preserved. As westerners at heart, we felt a sense of gratitude for this land, and rather than seeing what we could take from it, we took a moment and over a decade of intentional planning to see what the land would give to us… to see how we could live in harmony with the nature that surrounds us here. We chose to carefully integrate homes, lifestyle, walking, safety, sustainability and forward-thinking technology within our treasured natural surroundings for a complete experience of our beautiful state of Colorado.”
-- Harold & Diane Smethills Sterling Ranch Founders

Get to Know Your New Home
From remembering which new drawer contains the silverware to creating an emergency plan, take some time to get to know your new home!
Locate shut-off valves.
If you have a leak or are doing repairs and need to shut off the water, you’ll need to know where the shut-off valve is It’s a good idea to document it now so you know where it is when you need it.
Locate your circuit breaker.
Sometimes, you may need to shut off the power to a portion of your home to replace a light fixture or outlet. You don’t want to go searching for it in the dark! Note the location now so it’s easy to find later
Decide on a lock-out plan.
You’re new to the neighborhood and getting used to your surroundings It’s common to forget you locked the door and accidentally left your key inside, so have a backup plan in place.
Create an emergency plan.
You’re in a new home with a new layout. It’s a great time to think about what to do in an emergency. Create a plan in the unlikely event of a fire, tornado, flood or other emergency, and talk about it with everyone in the household
