Tatum Ranch Community Association HOA

What Tatum Ranch Community Association HOA's governing documents say

Tatum Ranch is a master-planned community in Cave Creek, AZ, governed by a master homeowners association (Tatum Ranch Community Association) and supplemented by parcel-specific documents. The provided fragments include an enforcement policy for the Toscana sub-association (Parcels 19 & 21), a tract declaration designating a portion of Parcel 22B for apartment development, and the master association's bylaws. These documents are partial and not a complete set of rules; they do not cover topics like architectural guidelines, pet restrictions, or rental terms for the entire community.

• Enforcement & fines (Toscana sub-association only): For Toscana Parcels 19 & 21, the adopted enforcement policy sets a graduated penalty: a first violation notice gives 14 days to cure; if not cured, a second notice (certified mail) imposes a $25 penalty plus a $15 certified processing fee. A third notice triggers self-help with a $50 penalty plus $15 fee. Violations posing immediate health/safety threats may skip standard notice. Self-help is authorized under CC&Rs Section 7.5, allowing the association to perform maintenance and charge the owner.
• Land use & development (Tract Declaration): A 2000 tract declaration for a portion of Parcel 22B (8.586 acres) classifies the land as 'Apartment Development Use,' meaning that parcel is designated for rental apartments, not owner-occupied homes. All improvements must be consistent with site plans approved by the Commercial Architectural Committee and comply with the master declaration and design guidelines.
• HOA governance & meetings (master association): The Tatum Ranch Community Association's bylaws (as amended through 1999) govern the master association. Annual meetings are held October 15 (or as set by the board). Notice of member meetings must be given 10–45 days in advance. Quorum is 1/10 of each class's votes. Voting is by majority of votes cast, unless a higher percentage is required. Directors: initially 3, increasing to 5 after the declarant's Class B membership ends; directors serve 2-year terms. Proxies expire after 11 months unless otherwise stated. The board may suspend voting and recreational facility use for up to 60 days for rule infractions.
• Assessments & liens (master association): Members must pay annual assessments, special assessments, and maintenance charges as detailed in the declaration. Unpaid assessments become delinquent, bear interest, and may be enforced by lien foreclosure or personal action against the owner, including costs and attorney's fees. Owners cannot waive assessments by nonuse or abandonment. The board may issue certificates of payment upon request for a reasonable fee.
• What this document doesn't cover: These excerpts do not include the full CC&Rs, architectural guidelines, specific pet or leasing restrictions for the overall community, or details about common amenities. The enforcement policy applies only to Toscana Parcels 19 & 21, not necessarily all of Tatum Ranch. For complete rules, consult the full declaration and any applicable parcel-specific documents.
