What Dobbins Place's governing documents say
Dobbins Place is a planned residential neighborhood of single-family detached homes in Chandler, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) binds all homeowners (called 'Owners') and their tenants. It sets rules for property use, architectural control, assessments, and community standards.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the house on it. The HOA maintains common areas (like roadways and landscaping in A-2 Lot courtyards) but not your individual lot. Owners must maintain their lot in safe, sanitary condition and handle landscaping in front and rear yards according to approved plans.
- Assessments & fees: All owners pay annual assessments. For A-1 Lots, the initial maximum annual assessment is $960; for A-2 Lots, it's $1,080. After the first lot is sold, the board can increase up to 10% per year or by the CPI, whichever is greater. Higher increases require a 2/3 vote. Supplemental and special assessments (e.g., for capital improvements) may also be levied. Late payments incur interest at prime + 3% and a late charge. The HOA has a lien on the lot for unpaid assessments.
- Architectural review: Almost all exterior changes require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. This includes construction, alterations, landscaping, fences, paint colors, solar panels, antennae, signs, and playground equipment. Failure to obtain approval can result in fines up to $10,000. The committee can grant variances.
- Use restrictions: Lots are for residential use only, occupied by a single family. No business or commercial activity. Leasing is allowed but owner must notify the association of the lease term and tenant name. No short-term rentals are explicitly mentioned, but leasing must comply with the declaration.
- Vehicles & parking: No mobile homes, motor homes, trailers, boats, or commercial vehicles may be parked on a lot for more than 48 hours in a 7-day period unless stored out of view. A trailer or boat can be kept without time limit if not visible from neighboring property.
- Pets: Generally recognized household pets are allowed in reasonable numbers, as determined by the board. No farm animals, fowl, or poisonous reptiles. Pets must be leashed or fenced, and owners must remove droppings. No commercial breeding. Pet structures must not be visible from neighboring property without approval.
- Minimum dwelling size: Any house built on an A-1 Lot must have at least 1,350 square feet of livable space; on an A-2 Lot, at least 1,320 square feet (excluding garage, porches, etc.). These minimums may be increased by the city or architectural committee.
