Desert Dove I Condominiums

What Desert Dove I Condominiums's governing documents say

Desert Dove I Condominiums is a two-unit condominium in Fountain Hills, Arizona — you own your individual unit and share ownership of the building structure and grounds through the association. The document establishes your ownership boundaries, maintenance duties, use restrictions, and governance during the developer's control period and after.

• What you own & maintain: You own your unit's interior, bounded by exterior walls, the building slab, roof, and interior party walls (to half their width). You maintain your unit interior and allocated limited common elements like yards or patios; the association maintains the shared structure and grounds.
• Single-family residential use only: Each unit must be used exclusively for residential occupation by a single family. No business operation is permitted, though you may keep personal business records or handle business calls from your unit.
• Architectural review: Nonstructural interior alterations need no approval. Any structural changes or exterior modifications require written consent from the adjacent unit owner. All work must also comply with Fountain Hills Committee of Architecture rules.
• Exterior restrictions: No solar panels, satellite dishes, antennas, or similar devices visible from neighboring property without adjacent owner consent. No outdoor clotheslines or vehicle repair work visible from neighboring property.
• Insurance requirements: Each unit owner must maintain fire, casualty, and liability insurance on their unit at full replacement value. The two units must jointly carry minimum $500,000 liability coverage, with insurance from carriers rated B+ or better.
• Assessments & common expenses: Common expenses are assessed equally between the two units (50% each). Assessment liens are subordinate to first mortgages, meaning a foreclosing lender takes title free of unpaid assessments.
• Board governance: During the developer's control period, the declarant appoints board members. After 100% of units are sold to non-developer owners, unit owners elect the board, which must include at least two unit-owner members.
• What this document doesn't cover: This declaration does not address leasing or rental restrictions, pet policies, parking rules, specific assessment amounts, or meeting requirements — those may be found in the association's bylaws or rules.
