Brooks Farms Estates

What Brooks Farms Estates's governing documents say

Brooks Farms Estates is a residential property owners' association community in Phoenix, AZ where you own your individual lot (called a Parcel) and share ownership of common areas, private access roads, and an irrigation system, maintained by the association through per-acre assessments.

• What you own & maintain: You own your individual parcel; the association maintains the common areas, private access roads (called Access Easements), and a shared irrigation system in safe, first-class condition. Owners are responsible for maintaining their own homes and landscaping.
• Minimum home size: Any residence must be at least 1,500 square feet; normal outbuildings are permitted and must comply with Maricopa County zoning.
• Residential use only: Parcels are limited to private dwelling purposes and permitted accessory uses under Maricopa County residential zoning. No commercial or professional use is allowed that would unreasonably use common areas.
• Assessments: The association levies annual assessments per acre (or portion thereof) to maintain common areas, roads, and irrigation. Special assessments for capital improvements can be levied with approval of owners representing two-thirds of the total land area. Delinquent assessments accrue interest at the highest FHA/VA mortgage rate and include attorneys' fees.
• Parking & vehicle restrictions: Access roads must remain clear for vehicular traffic at all times. The association can tow vehicles parked in fire lanes without notice, or other violations after a six-hour posted warning. Owners are responsible for enforcing parking rules.
• Leasing & rentals: You may lease your parcel to others for residential purposes only, subject to all other rules and covenants. No minimum lease term is specified in this document.
• Animals: All animals must be fenced or kept on a leash so they don't interfere with neighbors. Animal husbandry must not create noise, odor, insect, or other nuisance to adjacent parcels. No animals may be kept for commercial purposes.
• Prohibited activities & restrictions: No oil drilling, mining, quarrying, or mineral extraction is permitted on or within 500 feet below the surface of any parcel. No noxious or offensive activities; nothing that increases insurance rates or interferes with neighbors' quiet enjoyment. Owners must comply with all federal, state, and local laws.
