Sage Port #2 Covenant ACC Recorded and Membership History

Home Page

Sage Port #2 was founded in 1971 by Colorado Western Development Co. and is governed by a set of Protective Covenants that apply to the properties within our subdivision.

As our foundational governing document, the Covenants establish and protect important property rights and restrictions within Sage Port #2.

They also establish the Architectural Control Committee (ACC), with up to 3 members, and specifically name the members currently serving on the ACC. Changes in ACC membership are formally recorded with the Douglas County Clerk and Recorder, creating an unbroken public record of ACC succession and confirming who the duly appointed ACC members are at any given time.

The Protective Covenants are only two pages long, clearly written, and easy to read and understand. They have never been modified and, as of August 12, 2026, have been extended unmodified through August 2036.

The ACC is the only regulatory body established by the Covenants for Sage Port #2. Importantly, the Covenants do not establish a homeowners association (HOA).

The original filing creating Sage Port #2, in 1971, is filed with the Douglas County Clerk and Recorder, Book 220, Page 763.

Continuous ACC Succession

Please note that Sage Port #2 Covenant ACC membership has been continuous and unbroken since 1971. Each recorded change in ACC membership specifically references the preceding County filing, documenting that the appointing member was a then-serving ACC member with authority under the Covenants to make the appointment.

This creates a continuous and traceable public record of ACC succession from the original 1971 ACC through the members serving today.

Under the Sage Port #2 Protective Covenants, there are only two ways a property owner can become a member of the Covenant ACC:

• Appointment by a then-serving ACC member, followed by recording the change with the Douglas County Clerk and Recorder.
• Action by a majority of the property owners, who may remove or appoint ACC members, followed by recording the resulting change with the County. This method has never been used.

What About the “Sage Port HOA / ACC”?

Property owners, particularly those applying for building permits, may occasionally be contacted by individuals representing a private organization using the name “Sage Port HOA or as the Sage Port ACC” and claiming that its approval is required.

This private organization is not the Sage Port #2 Covenant ACC and has not been granted ACC authority under the Sage Port #2 Protective Covenants. It therefore has no authority under our Covenants to require Sage Port #2 property owners to submit building plans to it for approval.

If you are contacted by someone from this operation claiming authority to approve construction or enforce the Sage Port #2 Protective Covenants, there is a very simple question to ask:

Who appointed you to the Sage Port #2 Covenant ACC, and when?”
