Beacon Creek

What Beacon Creek's governing documents say

Beacon Creek is a single-family residential planned unit development (HOA) in Phoenix, AZ. You own your lot and home; the association maintains common areas and front-yard landscaping. All owners are automatically members of the Beacon Creek Homeowners Association and must comply with the CC&Rs.

• Architectural review: Any exterior structure, addition, or change—including buildings, fences, walls, antennas, awnings, patio enclosures, and landscaping—requires prior written approval from the Board. Plans must show dimensions, materials, colors, and location to ensure harmony with the neighborhood.
• Assessments & fees: All lots pay equal monthly assessments. The initial maximum regular assessment was $75 per month per lot (1985). The Board may increase it up to 5% per year or by the CPI (whichever is greater) without a vote; any higher increase needs a 2/3 vote of owners. Special assessments for capital improvements also require 2/3 approval. Late charges and 12% annual interest apply to delinquent assessments.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases are permitted but subject to rules adopted by the Board. The declaration does not specify a minimum lease term or require Board approval for leases, though owners must comply with all use restrictions and association rules. A single 'for rent' sign of reasonable size is allowed on the lot.
• Parking & vehicles: Parking is only allowed in designated spaces. Temporary parking for guests, deliveries, and loading is permitted. Buses, vans, trucks over 3/4 ton, motor homes, and commercial vehicles are prohibited unless approved by the Board. Boats, trailers, campers, and similar items cannot be stored on the property unless in designated areas.
• Pets: Section 8.13 covers animals, but the OCR text is garbled. Based on typical HOA provisions, pets are likely allowed subject to association rules regarding number, type, and behavior. No specific limits appear in the readable text.
• Signs: No signs visible from public view without Board approval. Exceptions: one 'for sale' or 'for rent' sign of reasonable size may be placed on the lot or immediately adjacent. The developer may use sales signs until all lots are sold.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for residential use only. No business, commercial, or manufacturing activity is allowed without Board approval. Nuisance activities (noise, odors, activities that increase insurance rates) are prohibited. Temporary structures require Board approval. Exterior fixtures like antennas, flagpoles, clotheslines, awnings, and satellite dishes need Board approval unless installed with original construction. Window covers are limited to curtains, blinds, drapes, and shades; paint or foil is not allowed.
