SCA DOnation Process

The purpose of this policy is to establish a formal process for documentation required to apply for waiving of facility fees or donations made by the Spring Creek Board of Directors.  This policy will outline the process for an entity to request donations/waiving of fees from the Board through a standard application process. Note: No monetary donation will be received directly, only donations of items such as lights, facility rentals etc. Please note that this is not a guarantee to receive a donation.  If a donation is received for an event, that does not guarantee the Board of Directors will sponsor the event in subsequent years.  This program is not meant to subsidize an entire event for the life of the event, it is to help supplement the event budget for a year or two to help establish the event and grow its success.  Please plan to scale up your event with other types of fundraising to cover the shortfall in the future years of the event. Please complete the application process in its’ entirety. The application does require copies of your IRS tax designation, tax returns, profit and loss statement, and/or bank statements.

The Spring Creek Association has approved updates to the Committee of Architecture (COA) Rules and Regulations concerning Home Occupations. Historically, the COA rules and the DOR (Declaration of Reservations) have been unclear or overly restrictive regarding home-based businesses. 

 These recent updates aim to provide clarity and expand upon previous guidelines used for approving Home Occupation Permits.

The revised rules were developed using input from surrounding communities and refined through public meetings to gather feedback and encourage discussion. The primary goal of these changes is to support and encourage the growth of home-based businesses in Spring Creek, especially given current infrastructure limitations. For example, Great Basin Water’s capacity issues have prevented some residential and commercial lots from connecting to the sewer system, restricting commercial growth in the area.

The updated guidelines are also intended to establish a clear understanding between neighbors and home-based business owners, promoting peaceful coexistence—particularly in AR (Agricultural Residential) zones. While the SCA supports home-based businesses, certain restrictions remain in place to preserve the residential nature of neighborhoods. For instance, businesses such as trash companies may not use residential garages for equipment storage, even if they operate as a home-based business.

If you have questions or need further clarification, please contact the Spring Creek Association office at (775)753-6295.
