Montana Farms II

What Montana Farms II's governing documents say

Montana Farms II is a single-family home subdivision in Citrus Park, AZ, designed for residential and hobby farm use. The neighborhood is governed by a homeowners association that manages a shared irrigation system for lots. This declaration outlines use restrictions, architectural controls, and property maintenance rules that apply to all lot owners.

• Use restrictions: Lots may only be used for single-family residential or domestic farming purposes. Each lot is limited to one detached residence with a minimum of 1,800 square feet of living area (excluding garages and patios). Modular, prefab, and mobile homes are prohibited, and no temporary structures may be used as residences.
• Irrigation & water rights: The subdivision has a shared irrigation system that delivers water from the Maricopa Water District to each lot. The Association manages water delivery and billing; lot owners must pay assessments to the Association and water charges to the District. Owners who default on assessments lose water rights.
• Architectural approval: Any construction, landscaping, fences, or other improvements require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee. Plans must be submitted; if not approved or denied within 30 days, they are deemed approved. The Committee has broad discretion over aesthetics and harmony with surroundings.
• Animals: No hogs or exotic animals (except family pets) are allowed. Up to 2 pets per residence, up to 4 adult dogs and 4 adult cats, up to 6 large animals (horses, cattle, etc.), and up to 10 poultry per lot. All animals must be fenced or leashed, and manure must be regularly removed.
• Parking & vehicles: Recreational vehicles (boats, trailers, RVs) must be stored in an enclosed garage or screened from view. No commercial vehicles over 1 ton rating. No non-operating vehicles allowed unless garaged. On-street parking is prohibited. Concrete driveways are required from street to residence.
• Business use: No trade or business may be conducted on a lot unless it is home-based, not detectable from outside (sight, sound, or smell), and consistent with residential character. Excessive traffic or parking is not allowed.
• Assessments & enforcement: The Association levies regular and special assessments uniformly per lot. Delinquent assessments accrue interest (minimum 18% per year) and may lead to liens, water shutoff, and legal action. Owners are personally liable. The declaration runs with the land and is enforceable by the Association or lot owners.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not impose any age restrictions, rental/lease term minimums, or caps on the number of rental properties. It also does not address rules about short-term rentals or specific architectural styles beyond requiring committee approval.
