Clearwater Mcguntain Estates

What Clearwater Mcguntain Estates's governing documents say

Clearwater Mountain Estates is a single-family residential subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, governed by an HOA (Clearwater Mountain Estates Property Owner's Association). The CC&Rs establish rules for land use, maintenance of shared irrigation and road systems, and architectural control. Owners own their lots and a proportionate interest in the irrigation system; the HOA manages common elements and enforces restrictions.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and a pro-rata undivided interest in the shared irrigation system, which cannot be separated from the lot. The HOA maintains the irrigation system and interior roadways (not maintained by the county); you are personally liable for assessments even if you don't use water or roads.
• Architectural review: All plans for structures (residences, barns, outbuildings, fences) must be approved by an Architectural Control Committee appointed by the HOA. Minimum residence size is 1,500 liveable square feet, with a 70-foot minimum front setback. No mobile homes are allowed. Failure to act within 45 days is deemed approval.
• Land use & farming: Lots may be used for residential or farming purposes only. No commercial businesses except farming or greenhouses. Temporary structures, trailers, mobile homes, basements, tents, or outbuildings may not be used as living quarters.
• Animals & pets: No hogs or swine. Large animals (horses, cattle, sheep, goats) limited to 4 per acre and must be pastured. Dogs and cats: no more than 4 adults each per residence. Poultry/fowl: 12 per acre. Exotic family pets allowed (max 2 per residence, housed indoors). Small meat/fur animals: 12 per acre. All animals must be fenced or leashed; no barbed wire fences.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA can levy regular and special assessments for operation, maintenance, and reserves. Each lot owner pays an equal share based on lot ownership. Delinquent assessments incur 18% minimum interest and may result in a lien or suspension of water rights. The HOA may also charge for curing violations.
• Water & irrigation: Water from the Maricopa County Water Conservation District is delivered via a shared irrigation system. Each lot is entitled to a proportionate share based on acreage, but only if assessments and water charges are paid. Water may only be used to irrigate the lot; the HOA controls timing and quantity. Defaulting owners lose water rights.
• Signs & nuisances: Only one 'For Sale' sign (max 2 ft x 3 ft) is allowed. No noxious or offensive activities, dumping, or storage of non-operating vehicles. Weeds must be controlled; no outside toilets. All plumbing must connect to a septic or government-approved system.
