What The Enclaves Community Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This is the Architectural and Landscape Design Guidelines for The Enclaves Community Association, a single-family home HOA in Lake Havasu City, AZ. It governs the exterior appearance, landscaping, and construction modifications for homeowners and builders — not the full community rules (no rules on leasing, pets, or age). The Architectural Review Committee (ARC) must approve all changes.

• Architectural review (ARC): Any exterior improvement, including construction, painting, landscaping, or structural changes, requires prior written ARC approval. A compliance deposit and design review fees may apply.
• Landscaping requirements: Lots are divided into three zones: Native (must remain natural or be revegetated), Transition (visible from streets, must follow approved plant lists), and Private (screened, more flexibility). Minimum tree and shrub quantities are required per lot size and street frontage (e.g., 1 tree per 25 ft of frontage, 5 shrubs per 500 sq ft of Transition Zone). All landscaping must use approved plant materials and automatic irrigation.
• Building & site development: All structures must be within the designated Building Envelope. Grading and drainage must not alter natural flows. Building height is measured from the finished pad elevation. Minimum enclosed garage for 2 cars. Driveways max 16 ft wide. Retaining walls max 8 ft high; fences max 6 ft high.
• Exterior materials & colors: Colors and materials must be natural desert hues. Driveway pavers must be from preselected blends. No colored concrete. Stucco, stone, split-face masonry, and wrought iron/ aluminum are approved for walls and fences. Roofs, doors, windows, and trim must follow specific style guidelines.
• Parking & garages: Each home must have an enclosed garage for at least 2 cars. Carports are not allowed as primary parking. Front-loaded garages must be set back at least 4 ft from the front plane of the house.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not address leasing, pets, age restrictions, noise, trash, or other HOA operational rules. Those are covered in the community's CC&Rs and other governing documents not provided here.
