Clear Aire

What Clear Aire's governing documents say

Clear Aire is a standard single-family home subdivision (HOA) in Fountain Hills, AZ — you own your lot and house, and the association maintains shared common areas like tracts and recreation facilities. This document is the full set of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) that run with the land and bind all owners, their tenants, and guests.

• Permitted land use: All lots are limited to single-family residential use only. No business, trade, or non-residential activity is allowed. Each lot may have only one single-family dwelling, and no structures like trailers, tents, or RVs may be used as residences.
• Architectural review: Any exterior alteration, improvement, or construction (including fences, color changes, landscaping) requires prior written approval from the Architectural Committee (the Board). The committee has 45 days to act; if it doesn't, approval is deemed given. Basketball standards or fixed sports apparatus attached to a unit or garage are prohibited.
• Vehicles & parking: Only automobiles in operating condition may be parked on streets, front yards, or where visible from neighboring property. Boats, campers, trailers, trucks, and non-operating vehicles must be parked only in designated areas. No vehicle repairs or construction visible from neighboring property except emergencies.
• Pets: A 'reasonable number' of common household pets is allowed, but only as domestic pets (no commercial breeding). No animal may create unreasonable noise or nuisance. Any structure for pet housing must not be visible from neighboring property. The Board decides what is reasonable.
• Leasing & rentals: Renting an entire lot to a single family is permitted, but leases must be in writing and must expressly state they are subject to the Declaration, Articles, and Bylaws. A tenant's failure to comply is a lease default. No minimum lease term is stated in this document.
• Assessments & fees: All owners must pay annual assessments and possible special assessments for capital improvements. Annual assessments may increase up to 10% per year by Board vote; any increase over 10% requires a 2/3 vote of members. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot and may be foreclosed. Assessments are uniform per lot.
• Maintenance responsibilities: Each owner is responsible for interior and exterior maintenance of their dwelling and lot, including termite control. The association maintains common areas (tracts, landscaping in rights-of-way) and may enter lots for that purpose. Party walls and fences shared between lots are jointly maintained.
• Signs & antennas: No signs visible from neighboring property except: legal-required signs, up to two small residential identification signs (total face area ≤72 sq in), one construction sign (≤3 sq ft), and those approved by the Architectural Committee. Satellite dishes up to 1 meter diameter are allowed; larger dishes and antennas over 12 ft above roofline require Board approval.
