Galvin Peaks

What Galvin Peaks's governing documents say

Galvin Peaks is a small, single-family home subdivision in Anthem, AZ, governed by a homeowner association called 'the Committee.' You own your lot and house, share common areas like Sentinel Rock Road, and must follow detailed rules on architecture, pets, parking, and leasing. Each home must be at least 3,300 square feet and built in Territorial/Santa Fe/Southwestern style.

• Architectural & design rules: All homes must be Territorial/Santa Fe/Southwestern style with flat roofs, parapet walls, stucco exteriors in desert colors, at least 3,300 sq ft interior. Any exterior alteration, addition, or landscaping change requires prior written Committee approval.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing for at least 30 days (no short-term or transient use), cover the entire lot, and include a clause that lease violations are defaults. A copy must be given to the Committee before the lease starts.
• Pets: Up to four household pets total (dogs, cats, birds, fish) are allowed per lot. No other animals, poultry, livestock, or reptiles. Any pet deemed a nuisance by the Committee must be removed.
• Parking & vehicles: No parking on streets except for loading/unloading. Boats, trailers, RVs, and campers may be kept on a lot only if they don't detract from aesthetics. No vehicle repairs on lots or common areas. The Committee can remove unauthorized vehicles.
• Use & occupancy: Each lot may be used only as a single-family residence. 'Single family' is defined as related persons or up to three unrelated persons living as a household. No temporary structures or mobile homes.
• Architectural review & alterations: No building, fence, wall, antenna, or other structure may be built or altered without written Committee approval of plans. The Committee has 60 days to respond. Interior non-structural changes do not require approval.
• Assessments & fines: Owners pay their share of common expenses (1/5 or 1/6 depending on lot count). The Committee can levy fines up to $50 per day for violations, plus interest and attorneys' fees, secured by a lien on the lot.
• Party walls & shared structures: Walls or fences on lot boundaries are party structures. Both adjoining owners share maintenance costs equally, unless damage is caused by one owner who then bears full cost.
