About

Established in 1994

Ridge Forest is a vibrant community of 110 homeowners located in Hanover, MD, just minutes from BWI airport, Fort George G. Meade, Arundel Mills mall, and the Maryland Live! Casino.

The Ridge Forest Homeowner Assocation was formed in 1994 to manage and maintain the community of Ridge Forest. The HOA is managed by a board made up of residents from within the community. The nine members of the Board that serve and operate the Association are elected by the neighborhood. Elections are held at our annual meeting in mid to late October each year as positions on the board become vacant.

At each annual meeting we discuss neighborhood issues, approve the budget for the next fiscal year and address any issues or concerns of the homeowners. Also, all homeowners in the Association are invited to attend the monthly meeting of the Board to present any issues of concern or to simply observe and participate in the operation of the Association.

The HOA Board is governed by the Bylaws and Covenants of the Ridge Forest Community and is guided by a clearly defined Mission Statement and Code of Ethics. 

Association dues are set by the Board of Directors and are reviewed at the Annual meeting. Dues are currently $230.00 per year and are collected annually by January 31st. You will receive an invoice as a reminder in your mailbox approximately 30 days prior to each due date. The Association’s fiscal year runs from January 1st through December 31st each year.
