Weston Ranch

What Weston Ranch's governing documents say

Weston Ranch (Phoenix, AZ) is a single-family home HOA—you own your lot and house, and the association maintains common areas. The rules apply to owners, residents, and guests. This document is the full set of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) governing the community.

• Assessments & fees: Initial maximum base assessment is $150/month per lot (Section 8.3.1). The board may increase assessments up to 20% per year without member vote; larger increases require a majority of Class A members and the Class B member (Declarant). Special assessments may also be levied. Late charges and interest (10% per annum or higher) apply.
• Architectural review: All exterior construction, alterations, landscaping in open yards, and fences require prior approval from the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). The ACC has 30 days to respond; if no response after a follow-up notice, approval may be deemed granted. Appeals and variances are possible but not guaranteed.
• Landscaping & maintenance: Open yards must be landscaped within 90 days of ownership (unless completed by Declarant). Owners must maintain all landscaping in clean, safe, neat condition. If an owner fails to maintain, the association may perform work and assess costs, plus a daily penalty up to $50 until completed.
• Fences & walls: Fences require ACC approval, are limited to 6 feet in height, and must typically be masonry or block. Boundary fences are jointly maintained by adjoining owners. Fences visible from the street must match original appearance unless approved. Easements for repair access are reserved.
• Leasing & rentals: Leasing is permitted; the association cannot prohibit leasing or require consent. However, the board may impose a maximum lease term of up to 12 months (Section 10.4.7). Leases must bind tenants to the HOA rules. No mention of a minimum lease term.
• Use restrictions & rules: The board may adopt and amend use restrictions and rules, subject to certain limits: equal treatment, no regulation of political sign content, allowance of religious/holiday displays, and no interference with household composition (except requiring single housekeeping unit and limiting occupancy based on unit size). Rules cannot retroactively require disposal of property or eviction of occupants in compliance with prior rules.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify pet limits, parking rules, noise restrictions, or age restrictions. The initial Use Restrictions and Rules are referenced as Exhibit B but not included here. Also, specific amenity details (pools, clubhouses) are not described in this portion.
