Mission Gates

What Mission Gates's governing documents say

Mission Gates (Arizona City, AZ) is a single-family home community governed by a Homeowners Association (HOA). This document is the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that apply to all lot owners, residents, and tenants. It establishes rules for property use, architectural standards, maintenance responsibilities, and association assessments.

• Architectural review: Any exterior construction or modification (including fences, landscaping changes, paint colors) requires prior written approval from the Design Review Committee. The committee may consider aesthetics and can deny even code-compliant plans. Decisions are final, and a review fee may be charged.
• Residential use & home businesses: All lots are limited to residential use. Home businesses are allowed only if they are not visible or detectable from outside, generate no customer traffic, involve no non-resident employees, and comply with all other rules.
• Animals: Dogs, cats, and small household birds are permitted as pets, but the Board determines a 'reasonable number' per lot. Dogs must be leashed (max 6 ft) when off the lot and cannot enter other lots. Owners must clean up feces on common area. The Board may ban pets that are a nuisance or threat.
• Vehicles & parking: The document restricts vehicle types and parking (details not fully extractable from OCR, but Article 4.15 is titled 'Vehicles and Parking' and likely prohibits commercial vehicles, RVs, or in-street parking). Check specific association rules.
• Signs: No signs visible from neighboring property are allowed without Design Review Committee approval, except for builder or association signs.
• Assessments: The Association levies regular and special assessments on all assessable lots to fund common expenses. Nonpayment creates a lien on the property. Specific amounts are not in this document.
• Leasing & rentals: Leasing is permitted (not considered a business), but no minimum lease term is stated. Owners must comply with all rules, and tenants are bound by the CC&Rs.
• Maintenance: The Association maintains common areas and certain lot improvements designated as 'Areas of Association Responsibility'. Owners are responsible for maintaining their lots to a standard set by the Board.
