Acacia Crossings

What Acacia Crossings's governing documents say

Acacia Crossings is a single-family home community in Apache Junction, AZ, governed by a Homeowners Association (HOA). Owners own their lot and detached residence, but many lots share party walls (walls on property lines) that require mutual maintenance. The HOA oversees common areas, enforces rules, and levies assessments. This document is the full set of covenants and restrictions that run with the land.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the single-family residence on it. You must maintain your home and yard (landscaping required within 90 days of ownership), keep it in good repair, and not create conditions that adversely affect neighbors. The HOA maintains common areas (e.g., landscaping in rights‑of‑way, recreational facilities).
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, for the entire residence, and have a minimum term of 30 days. No short‑term or vacation rentals. Leases are subject to the Declaration; the lessee may use common areas during the lease term.
• Pets: Only common household pets (dogs, cats, or others approved by the Board) are allowed, and they cannot be kept for commercial purposes or in unreasonable numbers. Pets must be leashed or fenced, and no animal housing structures may be visible from neighboring property.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles must not exceed 222 inches in length, 75 inches in height, and 84 inches in width. No commercial vehicles, trucks over one ton, boats, trailers, or inoperable vehicles may be parked if visible from neighboring property. Parking is allowed in garages or driveways; overnight street parking is prohibited. The HOA may tow violators at the owner's expense.
• Architectural review: Any exterior change (construction, painting, landscaping, fences, antennas, etc.) must be approved in writing by the Architectural Committee. Applications are deemed approved if no response within 60 days. The Declarant is exempt from this requirement.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA levies annual and special assessments. Initial maximum annual assessment is $60 per lot; it may increase automatically by the greater of 10% or CPI, but not more than 20% year‑over‑year without majority owner approval. Late payments incur 10% annual interest or a $15 late charge. A transfer fee (set by Board) and a reserve contribution equal to two months’ assessments are due from the first purchaser after construction.
• Party walls: Walls or fences on lot dividing lines are party walls. Each owner maintains the side facing their lot, and repair costs are shared equally unless damage is caused by one owner (who then bears full cost). Owners must get adjoining owner's written consent before modifying a party wall.
• Use restrictions: All lots are for single‑family residential use only. No commercial activity, home‑based businesses are allowed only if consistent with municipal ordinances. No noxious or offensive activities, no temporary structures as residences, and no drilling or mining.
