Suntown

What Suntown's governing documents say

Suntown is a standard single-family home subdivision in Peoria, AZ, governed by two sets of restrictive covenants (for Suntown Estates Unit I and Suntown Unit Four). These rules run with the land and are binding on all owners, focusing on residential use and property maintenance. The documents do not create a homeowners association or levy assessments.

• Property use & business restrictions: All lots are for single-family residential use only. No business, store, office, hospital, sanitarium, theater, saloon, or other commercial activity is permitted in or from any building, except temporary sales offices during development.
• Building specifications (Unit Four only): Each dwelling must have at least 1,000 square feet of ground floor area (excluding garage, porches, patios), be no more than one story, and be at least 70% masonry (excluding openings). No more than one residence per lot.
• Setback & fence restrictions: Front walls must be between 20 and 34 feet from the front property line; side walls at least 5 feet from side lot lines (10 feet on corner lots). No solid fence or wall over 2.5 feet high within 30 feet of the front lot line; rear and side fences or walls (or non-solid fences) may not exceed 6 feet in height.
• Pets & animals: No livestock, poultry, or fowl allowed. Dogs, cats, or other household pets may be kept but not for commercial purposes. No animals raised or bred for business.
• Vehicles & trailers: No house trailers may be kept on any lot. Abandoned or inoperable vehicles must not be visible from other lots or streets.
• Signs: No advertising signs except "For Rent" or "For Sale" signs of not more than 5 square feet, and builder signs during construction and sales period.
• Duration & amendment: The covenants originally ran until January 1, 1990 (Unit I) or February 1, 1990 (Unit Four), and automatically extend for successive ten-year periods unless a majority of owners vote to change them in whole or in part.
