Senita

What Senita's governing documents say

Senita is a master-planned residential community in Eloy, AZ, where you own your individual lot and home. The Senita Community Association maintains shared common areas and enforces design standards and use rules across the community, funded through annual assessments and special fees. Note: Properties here are also subject to a separate Central Arizona Groundwater Replenishment District covenant that imposes additional water management fees on top of HOA assessments.

• What you own & maintain: You own your Lot and the Residential Unit built on it; the Association maintains all Common Areas and designated Areas of Association Responsibility. You are responsible for maintaining your property according to the community's maintenance standards.
• Architectural review & design control: An Architectural Review Committee enforces Design Guidelines over exterior changes. Before making improvements visible from neighboring properties, you likely need committee approval—consult the Design Guidelines for specifics.
• Use restrictions: Lots are restricted to residential use only. Rules limit animals, restrict business operations and heavy equipment, control signage, regulate vehicles and parking, and govern exterior features like garage doors, driveways, basketball hoops, lights, and window coverings. Detailed restrictions appear in the full document.
• Leasing & rentals: The declaration contemplates leasing of Residential Units; lessees are recognized in the governance structure. However, specific lease-term minimums or restrictions are not detailed in the excerpted sections provided.
• Assessments & fees: Annual Assessments are levied per Lot to fund common operations. The Association may also levy Special Assessments for unexpected costs, Neighborhood Assessments for services to specific areas only, and a Transfer Fee upon lot conveyance. Working Capital and Reserve Funds are maintained.
• Water replenishment obligations: Separately from HOA dues, properties are subject to a Central Arizona Groundwater Replenishment District covenant requiring a Replenishment Assessment, an Activation Fee, and a Replenishment Reserve Fee—costs determined by the CAWCD based on groundwater usage and water-supply certification requirements.
• Insurance & maintenance: The Association carries master insurance on common areas. Owners maintain their individual units; the Association handles repair and replacement of damaged Common Areas using insurance proceeds.
• What this document doesn't cover: The excerpted sections do not specify annual assessment amounts, lease-term minimums, pet-count limits, or detailed design-guideline standards—these are covered in the full Design Guidelines, Bylaws, and Board-adopted rules referenced in the CC&R.
