Dobson Place II

What Dobson Place II's governing documents say

Dobson Place II is a standard single-family home subdivision in Chandler, AZ, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). This document outlines the covenants, conditions, and restrictions that apply to all lot owners, their tenants, and guests. It defines the rights and obligations regarding property use, maintenance, assessments, and architectural controls.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and detached dwelling unit. You must maintain your unit, yard, and landscaping. The association maintains common areas and certain Areas of Association Responsibility (e.g., tracts, retention tracts). Front yards must be landscaped within 90 days of ownership, including at least one 15-gallon non-deciduous tree.
• Assessments & fees: All owners pay annual assessments determined by the board, with a maximum annual increase of 20% or CPI (whichever is greater). Higher increases require member approval (over 50% vote). Special assessments need 2/3 vote. A one-time working capital payment (1/4 of annual assessment) is due upon original purchase from Declarant. A $200 transfer fee is due on each resale.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. 'Single Family' means related persons or up to four unrelated adults. Business uses are restricted; no commercial signage. No drilling, mining, or hazardous waste. Clothes drying must be screened; basketball structures need approval. No subdivision or timeshares.
• Leasing & rentals: Leasing is permitted but must comply with association rules. There is no stated minimum lease term; however, the document references lessees as 'Owner's Permittees' and requires conformity with all restrictions. (Check Article 8.13 for full details; the excerpt is incomplete.)
• Pets: Pets are allowed but subject to association rules; the association may limit the number and type of pets in common areas. No specific pet limit is stated in the provided excerpt.
• Parking & vehicles: Commercial or recreational vehicles (e.g., boats, RVs, large trucks) may only be parked in designated Recreational Vehicle Parking Areas (screened from view) or on a nonrecurring temporary basis. Family vehicles (cars, small trucks) must be parked in garages or driveways. Vehicle repairs are prohibited on lots unless in an enclosed area.
• Architectural review: All exterior alterations, landscaping changes, fences, and structures (including sheds, patios, antennas) require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. The committee sets design guidelines and must approve plans before installation.
• Enforcement & dispute resolution: The association can impose fines, suspend voting/amenity rights for nonpayment or violations, and lien the lot for unpaid assessments. Disputes require mandatory resolution procedures (notice, hearing, mediation) before legal action.
