What Gold Key Estates No. 2's governing documents say

Gold Key Estates No. 2 is a standard single‑family home subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a 1978 Declaration of Restrictions that runs with the land. These covenants apply to all lot owners and set rules for residential use, construction, appearance, and basic neighborhood standards.

• Land use & building type: Lots are for residential use only. Each lot may have only one detached single‑family dwelling with a carport or garage. No businesses, trades, hospitals, or sanitariums are allowed.
• Architectural control committee: A committee (initially Dell Trailor, Mike Trailor, and Don Stachowiak) must approve all plans for new buildings or alterations before construction. Approval is deemed given if the committee fails to act within 30 days and no lawsuit is filed before completion.
• Building size & setbacks: Dwellings must have at least 1,400 square feet of floor area (excluding porches, garages, carports, patios). Minimum front setback is 30 feet, side setbacks 7 feet (10 feet on street sides), and rear yard depth at least 25 feet. Building height limited to 2 stories or 30 feet.
• Fences: Fences over 6 feet are prohibited. Within the front or side street setback, fences cannot exceed 3 feet. All fence designs require committee approval.
• Livestock & pets: No livestock or poultry may be raised or kept. Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed as long as they are not kept for commercial purposes.
• Signs: Only one sign of no more than 5 square feet, advertising the property for sale or rent, is allowed unless approved by the committee.
• Parking & vehicles: Overnight parking of trucks or trailers in the street is prohibited. Only passenger cars and pickup trucks may be parked in open carports. Abandoned, inoperable, or being‑repaired vehicles must not be visible from other lots or streets.
• Care of property: All lots must be kept free of rubbish and weeds. Improved properties must be maintained in a neat condition. If a lot owner fails to maintain their lot, any six neighbors may have it cleaned and file a lien for the cost.
