About Us

Ranchos consists of about 52 miles of roads and 1227 lots. The overall development began in the late 1950s, and a trust fund was established by the developer in in 1995 and $320,000 was deposited into 3 different CDs. Rancho Road Maintenance Corporation (HRRMC) was established by the Hawaii Third Circuit Court in 1992 for the purpose of rebuilding and maintaining the roads within the subdivision, without assistance or support from the County or State.

We follow HRS 421j, 414d, and use Roberts Rules for our meetings

Who we are and what we do

Lot owners within the Ranchos subdivision are members of HRRMC and are required by court order to pay the annual road assessment.  We are attached to your property deed and each lot owns 1/1227 of the roadway.  

HRRMC is a non-profit corporation whose sole focus is to maintain and repair the approximately 52 miles of private roadway within this neighborhood. The corporation continually seeks to find the most cost-effective means of managing this task with the ever increasing cost of road materials linked directly to the rising price of petroleum. 


Overview

“Road Maintenance” includes stop and street signs, line markings, road patching, repair and  resurfacing, shoulder and cross street maintenance and line-of-sight clearing. All lot owners within the HRRMC subdivision are members of the Road Maintenance Corporation as per their deed to property.

We follow HRS 421j, 414d, and use Roberts Rules for our meetings

CURRENT YEAR ASSESSMENTS.

Starting Jan. 2021 the annual road maintenance fee is $250 per lot owned.

UN-PAID ASSESSMENT PENALTY’S.

If the assessment is not paid before March 31st, a 10% ( 12% annum) late fee will be applied. Statement fees will be added to unpaid accounts for additional billing. If payments are not received, the corporation will place a lien on the property and a non-refundable fee will be added to the account. If the property has a lien and the assessment remains unpaid, the corporation will seek all costs associated by legal means to collect the debt including a civil suit or eventual foreclosure of the property. The corporation makes every effort to avoid this course of events.

If your account is delinquent, please contact the office immediately to avoid any adverse actions.  We have options available.

For members who are unable to pay their annual assessment in full before March 31, please contact the office by email. If the account is paid off in full before the 31 March of each year, no additional late fees will be added for delinquency. 

We accept checks, money orders, cashiers checks or payments by PayPal. We will not accept cash.
