COPPER LABS GATEWAY DEVICE |
Your in-home water meters rely on Copper Labs Gateway Devices to relay your water usage to the CAB for billing. When there are changes made to the Wi-Fi setup in your home, such as installing a new Wi-Fi router or changing your Wi-Fi password, you must also update settings within the app that controls your Copper Gateways. Since communication to these Copper devices is critical for the CAB to perform water meter billing, it’s necessary for homeowners to ensure their device is connected. Learn more about the Copper Labs Gateway Device by watching the video! |

EXTERIOR LIGHTING IN STERLING RANCH |
|
There’s something truly magical about being outside at night. You can gaze up and look for constellations, catch a glimpse of a shooting star, or simply take a moment of solitude to contemplate and admire the beauty of the universe. The stars remind all of us to slow down, enjoy the moment, and not stress the small stuff.
Sterling Ranch is a Dark Sky compliant neighborhood committed to lighting standards for outdoor uses that serve to create a safe and comfortable nighttime environment while protecting the public's ability to view the night sky. Per request by the Enforcement Committee and approval by the Board of Directors, all exterior lighting violations and Design Review Committee exterior lighting approvals have been placed on hold during the month of December and January in efforts to educate the community on this important topic. With the completion of our Exterior Lighting education series, staff will continue the enforcement of Sterling Ranch Use restrictions surrounding exterior, decorative, and landscape lighting beginning February 8th.
Keep exterior lighting appropriate by asking yourself these questions:
- Is that light necessary? Is it brighter than it needs to be?
- Can I replace the bulb to reduce glare caused to my neighbors?
- Can I adjust my fixture installation or add a light shield so emanating light is pointed down to the ground?
- Do I turn my exterior lights off when not in use?
What does it mean if you receive a Courtesy Notice about your exterior lighting?
A Courtesy Notice is a friendly communication letting you know that during a weekly site inspection, a condition on your property was discovered that needs to be remedied to be in compliance with rules and regulations. The notice gives you the opportunity to voluntarily fix the condition before further enforcement action needs to be taken. If you have questions regarding the notice or need information on community guidelines reach out to us via email at info@sterlingranchcab.com and we are more than happy to help.
The goal of Sterling Ranch Community is to establish visually pleasing aesthetics for all residents, protect the beauty of the community and protect the property values of the neighborhood. Thanks for all you do to help!

CELEBRATE YOUR HEART BY LEARNING CPR |
|
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a leading cause of death among adults in the United States, killing roughly 320,000 Americans annually, according to the American Heart Association (AHA). Generally considered a problem among the elderly, SCA also strikes middle-aged adults, teenagers, and children.
Adopting healthier lifestyles—more exercise, better nutrition, cessation of smoking—can reduce the risk of SCA, but some factors such as family history and genetics can’t be mitigated.
Prevention isn’t enough; patients also rely on bystanders—loved ones or strangers—to react promptly and safely to make a difference.
Learning how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and operate an automated external defibrillator (AED) can make that difference. The South Metro Safety Foundation offers certification courses in CPR and AED use. Check out its schedule at www.southmetrofoundation.org.
Join South Metro Fire at the Overlook Clubhouse for a FREE CPR Refresher!
South Metro Fire will be at the Overlook Clubhouse providing 30-minute heart heath presentations and CPR refreshers. Please note you will not receive an official CPR certification by attending. Use the link below to RSVP for a time slot!
- February 6, 10:00am-1:00pm
- February 13, 10:00am-1:00pm
