What The Ranches at Suizo Mountain's governing documents say
The Ranches At Suizo Mountain is a single-family home community in Florence, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (The Ranch Owners Association). These documents set the rules for Ranch Parcels 6 through 10 — large lots intended for custom homes in a natural desert setting. Owners own their lot and home; the association maintains common roads, fences, and easements funded by annual assessments.
- What you own & maintain: You own your ranch parcel (lot) and all structures on it. You are responsible for all exterior maintenance, landscaping, and repairs on your lot. The association maintains common fences, gates, and private roads within designated easements.
- Architectural review: All construction, alterations, grading, and landscaping must be approved in writing by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) before starting. Plans are submitted in triplicate; if the ARC does not act within 30 days, approval is denied. Construction must be completed within 12 months of the building permit.
- Landscaping & natural vegetation: Landscaping must blend with the natural desert. Native growth (cacti, trees) cannot be destroyed without ARC approval. Only approved plants may be used; no non-living plants. Owners must maintain their parcel free of debris, and the ARC can require replacement of removed native growth.
- Animals & livestock: Animals are allowed in reasonable numbers, but not for commercial purposes. Livestock must be confined to the buildable area, with corrals and pastures limited in size (max 50% of buildable area for pasture, corrals max 2 acres or 25% of pasture). No hogs or pigs. No more than 10 chickens or poultry per parcel. Dogs and cats must be controlled.
- Parking & vehicles: No parking on roads for more than 6 hours. Vehicles must be kept in garages or on driveways within the buildable area. Boats, RVs, and campers cannot be stored longer than 6 hours unless screened from view. Motorcycles and ATVs cannot be used for recreation on the property, only for access or maintenance. No inoperable vehicles visible from neighboring properties.
- Leasing & rentals: The document does not restrict leasing or rentals beyond allowing owners to share use with tenants. There is no minimum lease term or rental cap mentioned.
- Assessments & fees: The association levies annual and special assessments. Each ranch parcel’s share is based on the number of subdivided parcels (denominator of 10 maximum). A one-time membership fee up to $250 is due upon purchase. Assessments become a lien if unpaid; late fees and interest apply.
- Subdivision of parcels: Each of Ranch Parcels 6-10 may be subdivided into a maximum of two parcels, subject to ARC and government approval. The original parcel’s assessment and voting rights are split equally between the new parcels.
