TGIA was formed by the original developer, Horizon Corporation, as a way for property owners to fund certain improvements in the development. Property owners in Tierra Grande automatically become members and are subject to a yearly charge. Statements are mailed out every October and the payment is due at the end of the year.

With the monies collected each year we have put over $375,220 into power line extensions, $54,305 in telephone line extensions, $97,000 for our fire station, more than $600,000 into road improvements and maintenance, and almost $500,000 in a land trade with the railroad allowing Tierra Grande to buy out the reversionary clause from Horizon Corporation (Maxim) for the full rights to the Tierra Grande wilderness areas.  Also have spent approximately $200,000 on promotions, billboards, the quarterly newsletters, CD/DVD, brochures, web site development, clean up, fencing and the like.

The restrictive Covenants which are filed of record with the County Clerk include minimum home square footage of 2,000 sq. ft., prohibiting mobile homes, commercial operations, farm animals i.e. pigs, goats, chickens, etc., with the exception of two horses per five acres, and lot size restrictions. Building plans must be submitted to the Architectural Control Committee for approval. Please contact our office for details. We appreciate compliance with these restrictions. They are in place to help preserve land values and maintain the peaceful quality of life in Tierra Grande. We need every owner’s participation.

The Indenture explains in detail the function of TGIA.

Landowners receive four newsletters a year which keep them abreast of our activities.
