Curtis Commons

What Curtis Commons's governing documents say

Curtis Commons is a single-family home subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). These Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs) apply to all lot owners, residents, and tenants. The HOA manages common areas and enforces rules to maintain property values and a residential character.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the home on it. You are responsible for maintaining landscaping on your lot and in certain adjacent areas (e.g., between sidewalk and curb). The HOA maintains common areas, perimeter walls (structural), and certain party walls.
• Residential use & home businesses: Each home must be used as a residence by a single family (defined as individuals related by blood/marriage/adoption, or up to 3 unrelated persons). Home-based businesses are allowed only if invisible from outside, comply with zoning, and don't create nuisance. Bed-and-breakfasts or short-term lodging are prohibited.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, for a term of at least one year, and expressly subject to the CC&Rs. The owner must notify the HOA of any lease and remains responsible for tenant compliance.
• Pets: Reasonable number of generally recognized house or yard pets are allowed, kept only as domestic pets, not for commercial purposes. Pets must be fenced or leashed, and the owner must immediately remove droppings. The board may determine if a pet is a nuisance.
• Parking & vehicles: No trucks over 2-ton payload, campers, boats, RVs, or trailers may be parked where visible from neighboring property, common area, or street (with exceptions for SUVs, pickup trucks under certain size). Parking on driveways is allowed if vehicles fit within length and height limits (7 ft high, 23 ft long). Inoperable vehicles may not be stored visibly. Street parking for guests is limited to 72 hours per week.
• Architectural review: All exterior changes—construction, painting, landscaping, fences, antennas, solar panels, window treatments—require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. Guidelines are set out in separate Architectural and Design Guidelines.
• Party walls & perimeter walls: Walls between lots are party walls. Each owner maintains their side; structural repairs are shared. Perimeter walls are maintained by the HOA structurally, but owners paint and maintain the side facing their lot.
• Disclosures & nearby nuisances: The declaration discloses proximity to Interstate 10, Loop 303, Phoenix-Goodyear Airport, and Luke Air Force Base (aircraft noise). It also notes adjacent agricultural uses, construction nuisances, and the possibility of undomesticated creatures. These are informational and not restrictions.
