Garden Lakes Mai HOA

What Garden Lakes Mai HOA's governing documents say

Garden Lakes Manor is a standard single-family home HOA in Litchfield Park, AZ. This document is the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that applies to all lot owners. It establishes the association, assessments, use restrictions, and maintenance obligations.

• Use restrictions: Property may be used only for residential, recreational, and related purposes. No business, commercial, or industrial activity is allowed, except for Declarant's construction/sales activities for up to 5 years.
• Assessments: General assessments are levied equally per lot. The maximum permitted general assessment for 1987 was $840/year per lot. Increases are limited to the greater of 5% or the CPI change, unless approved by two-thirds of votes. Special assessments require two-thirds approval. Assessments are due semiannually (January and July).
• Maintenance responsibilities: The association maintains common areas (including front yard landscaping of each lot) as a common expense. Each owner must maintain their own residential unit and structures, keeping exteriors in good repair. If an owner fails to do so, the association may perform work and lien the lot.
• Parking & vehicles: Private passenger cars and pickup trucks may be parked only in garages, driveways, or designated areas. No mobile homes, motor homes, boats, RVs, trailers, or campers may be kept on the property unless inside a garage or in designated areas. Vehicle repairs are allowed only inside an enclosed garage. Inoperable vehicles must not be parked in unenclosed areas.
• Pets: Pets are addressed in Section 19 of Article IX, but the specific text is incomplete. The document references a pet section; typical restrictions apply.
• Signs: No signs are permitted except: one nameplate and one address plate, one 'For Sale' or 'For Lease' sign (max 18x24 inches), and signs used by the Declarant during construction/sales. Directional and subdivision identification signs are allowed with association approval.
• Fences: All fences must be block construction unless otherwise approved. Maximum height is 6.5 feet, except within 15 feet of the front property line (max 3 feet). Fences must match the exterior color of the structure. No fence may interfere with easements or drainage.
• Leasing & rentals: The document includes a section on renting or leasing of lots (Section 21 of Article IX), but the specific text is not fully legible in this excerpt. Leasing is permitted subject to the rules and conditions set forth in that section.
