The Boulders Scottsdale

What The Boulders Scottsdale's governing documents say

This is a 1996 amendment to the master declaration for The Boulders Scottsdale (formerly The Boulders Carefree), a master-planned community in Carefree, AZ. It changes the community name and adds rules for Association maintenance of front yard landscaping in designated areas — but this document alone is not the full rulebook. The amendment applies to all lot owners, with specific rules for “Enchantra at the Boulders” (Lots 1–18).

• What this document covers: This amendment only adds provisions about Association maintenance of front yard landscape areas and changes the community name. It does not repeat or replace other CC&R rules like leasing, pets, parking, age restrictions, or architectural standards.
• Front yard landscape maintenance area: For Lots 1–18 in 'Enchantra at the Boulders,' the Association maintains the landscaping between the street and the exterior wall of the dwelling, and between the street and any side/back yard wall. The Association has an easement to access these areas.
• Special assessments for front yard landscaping: All costs for maintaining front yard landscaping (including watering, insurance, utilities, reserves) are charged as a special assessment to lot owners within the affected community. Each lot pays an equal share, and the board may collect in installments or lump sums.
• Owner responsibility for specimen trees: Owners are solely responsible for replacing any 'Specimen Tree or Cactus' that dies or needs replacement, even if located within the Association-maintained front yard area. The Design Review Committee decides what qualifies as a specimen.
• No alterations without approval: No owner or other person may install, modify, or remove landscaping, lighting, sidewalks, walls, or watering systems in the Association-maintained front yard area without prior written approval from the Design Review Committee. Violations result in owner liability for damage or increased costs.
• Insurance and waiver of subrogation: The Association carries liability insurance for its maintenance activities. Owners must ensure their property insurance includes a waiver of subrogation, and both parties waive claims against each other for insured losses.
• What this document doesn't cover: This amendment does not address leasing restrictions, pet limits, parking, age restrictions (55+), architectural review for the whole community, or any rules for lots outside the Enchantra community. Those are in the original master declaration (not provided here).
