Freedom Village operates under SkyStone Vale LLC, a cooperative landholding entity formed under the Colorado Limited Liability Company Act (C.R.S. § 7-80-101 et seq.). Membership grants individuals a contractual right to occupy and use a designated lot, formalized through the LLC's Operating Agreement.

• These lots are not individually deeded or subdivided; instead, use rights are enforceable under private contract law, offering members protection and flexibility within a cooperative legal framework.
   

SkyStone Vale LLC is co-owned by two individuals. In the event of death or permanent unavailability:

• The surviving co-owner retains legal authority.
   
• If both are unavailable and no written successor is named, the Freedom Village Community Board assumes control.
   

The Board may:

• Transition to a board-managed cooperative
   
• Appoint a new managing member or trustee
   

This structure ensures community continuity even in the face of leadership change or legal disruption.

• Transferability: Use rights may be transferred with LLC approval, per cooperative guidelines.
   
• Dues & Buy-In Compliance: Members must stay current on payments.
   
  • Community labor or in-kind contributions (e.g., construction, gardening) may be approved in lieu of dues.
     
• Community Participation: Members are expected to engage in governance, maintenance, and mutual aid systems.
   

• $10,000 one-time buy-in
   
• Fully refundable if zoning/CUP is denied
   
• Non-refundable once zoning is approved and use rights are granted
   

• $500/month until $17,000 is paid
   
• Member has full rights to live on-site and participate during the payment period
   
• Non-payment without communication or hardship approval may result in loss of membership rights
   

• Donate $6,000 via your employer’s Benevity portal
   
• Select Unity Harbour as the recipient nonprofit
   
• Request match to fund “Freedom Village Membership Buy-In”
   
• Contact us to confirm and complete your membership setup
   

To begin infrastructure installation:

• 20 confirmed members if self-funded
   
• Fewer if secured through outside financing or grants
   

💡 All member funds are held pending zoning approval. If zoning is denied, contributions are refunded.

Freedom Village does not guarantee:

• Protection during national emergencies
   
• Citizenship or legal status in future political regimes
   

However, our cooperative legal structure is designed for resilience through:

• Contractual land use protections
   
• Internal enforceability
   
• Privacy from public registries
   
• Shielding from hostile land claims
   

Freedom Village operates through two legally distinct entities:

1. SkyStone Vale LLC – Landholding and cooperative governance
    
2. Unity Harbour – 501(c)(3) nonprofit oversight and mission-driven stewardship
    

✅ IRS-compliant charitable use (Rev. Rul. 98-15)
✅ Zoning compatibility without subdivision (C.R.S. § 30-28-101)
✅ Separation of charitable and private activity
✅ Asset protection and operational flexibility

In the event one entity dissolves, the other may continue operations independently.

All members agree to assume full responsibility for their safety and activity on-site. SkyStone Vale LLC and Freedom Village are not liable for injuries, damages, or loss.

All members are expected to contribute to:

• Community governance
   
• Property maintenance
   
• Shared duties, including emergency response
   

All terms, dues, and governance processes are subject to member consensus and may evolve as needed to meet community or legal requirements.

• Membership is not an equity stake
   
• There is no profit-sharing, resale guarantee, or dividend structure
   
• All contributions go toward mutual aid, infrastructure, and land stewardship—not private gain
   

We chose a cooperative LLC to ensure:

• Legally enforceable land use rights
   
• Privacy in land records
   
• Transferability without full parcelization
   
• Greater resilience to political and financial instability
   
• Flexibility for zoning through Conditional Use Permits (CUPs)
   

• One parcel, internally subdivided by contract
   
• Use rights recorded in the Operating Agreement
   
• Lots designated by CUP for tiny homes or RVs
   
• Aligned with:
   
  • C.R.S. § 7-80-101 (LLCs)
     
  • C.R.S. § 7-58-101 (Co-op Associations)
     
  • C.R.S. § 30-28-101 (Zoning & Land Use)
     

We are permitted to publicly market the project before zoning approval, provided we include the following disclaimer:

“Unity Harbour and SkyStone Vale are actively working with local officials to finalize zoning and land use approvals. All cooperative memberships and contributions support these efforts. Housing availability will be subject to applicable permits and approvals.”
