Association
Board of Directors
The Association is operated by a 5 member Board of Directors who volunteer their time for the benefit of the community.
The Board members are elected by the membership at the annual meeting. The terms held are determined by the position. The Annual Meeting is held in September of each year. If a director is unable to complete their full term, the Board will appoint someone to fill that seat until that term expires.
A list of the current board members is available on the Key Personnel page.
The Board of Directors elects the officers after the annual meeting. The term of all officers is staggered. A description of each position is available on the Become a Volunteer page.
The Board of Directors meets on a quarterly basis to conduct the business of the association. The meeting agenda is posted at least 72 hours prior to the meeting.
All meetings are open to residents. If there is a specific topic you would like placed on the agenda, please contact your community representative at least ten days in advance.
Exterior Modifications
All exterior alterations or improvements to property in Shavano Forest must be reviewed and approved in advance of construction by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Residents must submit a home improvement application describing the work to be performed. If it is not approved as submitted, the ACC may provide suggestions for making changes so it can be resubmitted for approval.
To complete your application, click on Ask. Request. Submit. There you will enter all of the information needed in order for the committee to make an informed decision. Any applications dealing with the exterior appearance of the house (such as painting or roofing) must be accompanied with project details or the application might be disapproved for lack of information. Also include a plat map or survey of the property that indicates the project in conjunction with the property lines and easements when applicable.
As soon as you have gathered your information, you are ready to get started.

Wildlife Spotting and Information
Greetings Residents of the Shavano Forest Owners Association!
PLEASE BE AWARE! There has been sightings of Dangerous Wildlife in our Community and can potentially end up very dangerous for humans, as well as pets!! Most recently, there was a Bobcat sighting, sitting & hanging out on one of our Member’s fence lines Photos and Newsletter sent via eBlast on 06/29/2022).
Please be on high alert, especially while taking your pets on their walks or simply letting them play in the yard! As you can see in the photo, they camouflage extremely well and some people may not be able to spot them at first!
This extreme weather is forcing wildlife closer to residential areas looking for food and water. Please be aware of this.
For additional information in regards to the recent sighting, the following link is a website that provides information on how to "live with Wildlife": https://wildlife-rescue.org/resources/living-with-wildlife/
