These documents — a Resolution setting a Schedule of Monetary Penalties (2018) and a Policies & Rules Information Manual (2025) — outline enforcement fines and day-to-day rules for residents and property owners. They supplement the full governing documents (CC&Rs, Articles, Bylaws) and are binding on all lot owners, their renters, and guests.

• Age restriction (55+): Sun Lakes is an Over 55 Community: at least 80% of residents must be age 55 or older; the remaining units must have at least one occupant age 45 or older. No one under 19 may reside permanently. Guests under 19 may stay no more than 30 days per calendar year and have restricted facility hours.
