Cantamia at Estrella

What Cantamia at Estrella's governing documents say

CantaMia at Estrella is an age-restricted (55+) master-planned community in Phoenix, AZ. You own a single-family lot and dwelling, and the association maintains common areas and amenities. The community operates under a multi-layered governance structure including a master association and a joint committee. All owners and occupants must comply with the governing documents.

• Age restriction (55+): At least 80% of dwellings must be occupied by at least one person 55 or older. Persons under 19 may stay overnight up to 90 days per year but cannot occupy. Qualified occupants include those 55+ (age-qualified), persons 19+ living with an age-qualified occupant, and with board approval, those continuing occupancy after the age-qualified occupant leaves.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for at least six months, and only the entire dwelling may be leased (no fractional or casita-only leases). Subleasing requires board approval. Owners must notify the board within 10 days of executing a lease and provide tenants with the governing documents.
• Pets: Up to three dogs, cats, household birds, or fish per household are generally allowed, but the board may determine a different reasonable number. Animals must not be a nuisance, must be leashed or enclosed, and owners must clean up after them. Dog runs are prohibited.
• Architectural review: All exterior alterations, including fences, pools, antennas, and landscaping changes, require prior written approval from the Design Review Committee (DRC). Design guidelines are adopted by Declarant (developer) during the Declarant Rights Period and later may be modified by the board.
• Business & home occupations: No business or trade may be conducted from a dwelling unless it is not detectable by sight, sound, or smell, conforms to zoning, does not involve regular client visits, and is consistent with residential character. Garage sales are limited to two per year, for owners and occupants only.
• Parking & vehicles: Garages must be used for parking vehicles. No inoperable vehicles, unlicensed off-road vehicles, or loud motorcycles are allowed without DRC approval. Basketball backboards and play equipment are generally prohibited except in rear yards with DRC approval.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify current assessment amounts, detailed community amenities (though a fitness center, pools, and lake areas are mentioned), or complete rules and regulations (which are adopted separately by the board).
