Encantobella

What Encantobella's governing documents say

Encantobella is a planned single-family home community (PUD) in Phoenix, AZ. This Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements (CC&Rs) creates a homeowners association (HOA) that all lot owners automatically join. The rules govern exterior appearances, property use, assessments, and community standards.

• Assessments & fees: All lots pay annual and special assessments. The maximum annual assessment started at $800 in 2002 and can increase up to 20% each year without a membership vote. Any higher increase requires a two-thirds vote of each membership class. Special assessments for capital improvements also require a two-thirds vote.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing for at least 30 days. Transient, timeshare, or hotel use is prohibited. Tenants must comply with the governing documents, and owners remain fully responsible for tenant violations. Owners must notify the association and provide a copy of the lease.
• Animals: Only reasonable numbers of common house or yard pets are allowed. Pets must be kept on a leash when outside the lot, and owners must immediately remove droppings. No animal structures may be visible from neighboring properties. The design review committee decides whether a pet is a nuisance.
• Architectural & exterior changes: No exterior improvements or alterations may be made without prior written approval from the board or design review committee. This includes painting, landscaping, repairs, patio covers, window treatments, antennas, solar panels, and any change to exterior appearance.
• Parking & vehicles: No vehicle over 1-ton, motor homes, trailers, boats, or inoperable vehicles may be parked where visible from streets or neighboring property. Parking is limited to garages and designated areas. Garage spaces cannot be converted to other uses. Towing is permitted for violations.
• Signs & outdoor items: No signs (commercial, political, etc.) are allowed if visible from neighboring property except as required by legal proceedings. Clotheslines must be in rear yards or not visible. Trash containers must be stored out of view except on collection days.
• Design review committee & variances: A design review committee (appointed by the board) enforces design guidelines and can grant variances if a restriction creates an unreasonable hardship or is obsolete, provided the variance doesn't harm the community. Decisions must be made within 45 days of application.
