Mike Sheridan Retires

Please join us in congratulating Mike Sheridan on his retirement from Cordillera Ranch Development. As an original member of the development team at Cordillera Ranch 17 years ago, Mike has been an instrumental part of the growth and success at Cordillera Ranch. Having worn many hats of Development Manager, Sales Manager, Sales Agent, de-facto POA Manager, Architectural Review Committee manager and many other roles, Mike’s experience and knowledge of the ranch is vast. His vision and talents in land planning the community complimented by his attention to detail reviewing new home plans have helped Cordillera become recognized as one of the highest caliber developments in not only Texas but the entire U.S. Further, his passion for Cordillera’s ongoing success is matched only by his love of the highly ranked Nicklaus Signature golf course he helped create.

On behalf of the entire Cordillera Ranch ownership and staff, we offer an enormous ‘thank you’ to Mike for his contributions to this truly unique community. Aside from his artistic vision in land planning, Mike’s steadfast approach to guarding the integrity of the community for the past 17 years has been invaluable not only to the developer but also for the 1,000+ property owners. Sometimes underappreciated by residents is the daily work he has done as protector of detailed covenants by making sure there is strict adherence to these restrictions both from a home construction standpoint and general community maintenance perspective. Upholding these core principles is one of the many ways Cordillera is set apart from other luxury home communities in the Hill Country.

While Mike is formally stepping aside from his regular day-to-day roles of managing various development and POA operations, he’ll still be contributing to Cordillera Ranch on a less intensive consulting basis. This transition will allow Mike to continue to play a role in land planning of new phases as needed and assure that his knowledge of the community and role as one of its guardians is conveyed to successors, including new POA General Manager Matt Haire. Mike will continue on a consulting basis with the POA as a member of the Architectural Review Committee while also assisting in a long-range transition of the ARC that will include additional members. So you’ll still see Mike around the office some, but he’s looking forward to a less rigid schedule, less managerial responsibility and – most importantly – relinquishing the title of Mike Sheriff!

Congratulations, Mike, on a wonderful career and long-lasting contribution to the finest community in Texas!

Agronomy

Challenges. Opportunities. Moving Forward.

Fall has been a busy season for the Agronomy team. This important season kicks off after all the fun of the Ladies’ Ranch Roundup, when we begin our greens aerification process. At the conclusion of this process in October, we have now seen the extraordinary benefit of the deep vertical slicing (Graden device) coupled with the normal aerification of punching holes and backfilling with sand.

Bees and Golf Courses

A long-standing interest of mine has been the benefits of using honey and bee keeping. I have enjoyed honey since I was a child and there are many benefits of having honey in your diet. Honey contains a variety of nutrients, it’s rich in antioxidants and is better for blood sugar levels than regular sugar. Research has shown it to promote heart health, promote burn and wound healing, and help suppress coughing with children.

Amanda Naranjo

Ever since I can remember, I’ve been around the game of golf. From watching golf tournaments on TV with my family to going out to the driving range with my dad during my High School years while on the Golf Team, everything I associate with golf has been positive. I decided to attend the University of the Incarnate Word and major in Fashion Merchandising with a concentration in Business. Fusing both my passion for fashion and love for the game of golf, the golf merchandising path was the perfect path for me.
