Palo Brea
Recorded covenants run with the land, but there is no mandatory homeowners association collecting dues.
We didn't find proxy provisions in the governing documents on file. This usually means the bylaws haven't been uploaded yet.

What Palo Brea's governing documents say
Palo Brea is a single-family subdivision in Maricopa, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). Owners own their lot and detached home; the association maintains shared common areas and certain other areas. All owners must pay assessments and follow rules for property maintenance and landscaping.
- Assessments & fees: Annual assessments fund common area operations, insurance, and reserves. The board may increase assessments annually by up to 10% or the CPI increase (whichever is greater) without a vote; larger increases require a membership vote (2/3 of votes cast, or >50% of all votes if increase exceeds 20%). Special assessments need a 2/3 vote. New buyers pay an initial working capital fee equal to 1/6 of the annual assessment; a similar transfer fee is due on every resale. Late payments incur a fee of the greater of $15 or 10% of the unpaid amount plus 12% annual interest.
- Maintenance Responsibilities: The association maintains all common areas and 'Areas of Association Responsibility' (e.g., street landscaping, lights). Owners must keep their detached dwelling unit and all ancillary structures in clean, safe, and attractive condition, including painting, roofs, windows, and utilities.
- Landscaping Requirements: Owners must landscape the open yard (front and visible side yards) within 90 days of purchase. All landscaping plans require prior approval by the Architectural Committee. If an owner fails to maintain landscaping, the association may step in and charge the owner, creating a lien.
- Access for Maintenance: The association and its agents may enter a lot at reasonable hours after notice (or without notice in an emergency) to perform maintenance or repairs on common areas or the lot if the owner fails to do so.
- Occupancy & Use: Each lot and home is limited to single-family residential use. 'Single Family' means persons related by blood, marriage, or adoption, or up to four unrelated adults living together as a household.
