Lancaster Estates (AZ)

What Lancaster Estates (AZ)'s governing documents say

Lancaster Estates is a single-family home subdivision in Casa Grande, AZ. This document is a specific groundwater covenant, not a full community rulebook. It binds all lot owners to pay an annual replenishment assessment to the Central Arizona Water Conservation District (CAWCD) to maintain the property's assured water supply. Failure to pay results in a lien on the property and personal liability.

• Replenishment assessment: Each parcel is subject to an annual Replenishment Assessment levied by CAWCD, based on the Parcel Replenishment Obligation (the share of excess groundwater delivered to the property). The amount is set by CAWCD and must be paid when due; late payment incurs interest, costs, and penalties under Arizona law.
• Lien and personal obligation: The assessment, plus interest, costs, and penalties, constitutes a continuing lien on the parcel. It is also a personal obligation of any person who was an owner when the assessment came due. CAWCD has legal remedies for nonpayment.
• Water supply purpose: This covenant qualifies Lancaster Estates as Member Land in the Central Arizona Groundwater Replenishment District, which helps the property obtain a certificate of assured water supply required for development.
• Amendments: The declaration can be amended only by the written agreement of CAWCD, the Arizona Department of Water Resources, and owners of 67% of the total area of the property, or by changes in applicable statutes.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not address typical community rules such as pet limits, leasing restrictions, architectural standards, parking, or maintenance obligations. It is a supplemental covenant focused solely on groundwater replenishment.
