Las Montanas Del Sol

What Las Montanas Del Sol's governing documents say

Las Montanas Del Sol is a planned single-family home community in Fountain Hills, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). These Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions, and Easements (CC&Rs) apply to all lot owners and residents, establishing rules for land use, architecture, vehicles, pets, leasing, and assessments. The association maintains common areas (currently none exist) and enforces the rules.

• Architectural review: All exterior improvements visible from neighboring property require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee, including construction, landscaping, and changes. The committee has broad discretion to approve or deny based on harmony and aesthetics; decisions are final. Approvals not required for private yard landscaping.
• Residential use & home businesses: Dwellings must be used by a single family (related persons or up to three unrelated individuals). Home businesses are allowed only if not detectable from outside, generate no extra traffic, and use no hazardous materials; leasing is not considered a business.
• Pets: Only common household pets (dogs, cats, birds) are allowed, not for commercial purposes. Pets must be leashed (6 ft max) off the owner's lot and must not create noise or nuisance. Pet structures must not be visible from neighboring property.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, for a minimum of 30 days. Tenants must comply with all governing documents.
• Parking & vehicles: Commercial vehicles (RVs, boats, trailers) cannot be parked on public yard or common area streets unless for temporary loading (24 hrs) or in enclosed garage. Family vehicles (cars, trucks under 1 ton, SUVs) may park on driveways. No vehicle repair outside garages except emergencies. Garage doors must be kept closed when not in use.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the Board and must be uniform per lot. Special assessments require 2/3 vote of class A members (and declarant while class B exists). Assessments are capped at 20% increase per year without majority approval. Late payments incur 15% interest and potential lien.
• Common areas & gating: Currently there are no common areas. The community is not gated, but the association may decide to gate it in the future, converting roads to private.
• Signs & antennas: Signs visible from neighboring property are limited to one 'for sale' or 'for lease' sign per lot, plus identification signs. Antennas and satellite dishes require committee approval, subject to FCC rules. Clotheslines visible from neighboring property are prohibited.
