Harmony Manor

What Harmony Manor's governing documents say

Harmony Manor is a standard single-family-home subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs). The rules apply to all lot owners, their tenants, and guests, and are enforced by an Architectural Control Committee. This is the full rulebook for the community — it controls what you can build, park, keep as pets, and how you can use your home.

• Residential use & home businesses: All homes must be used exclusively as a single-family residence. Home-based businesses are permitted only if they are invisible from outside (no signage, no regular visitors, no noise/smell), comply with zoning, and don't generate extra traffic. Leasing a home is not considered a business.
• Architectural & landscaping control: Any exterior change (including fences, paint, patios, landscaping, and even basketball hoops) must be approved in writing by the Architectural Control Committee. Homes must have stucco exteriors and masonry fences. Front hedges cannot exceed 3 feet; side/rear fences no more than 6 feet. No chain-link fences without approval. Garage doors must stay closed except when entering/exiting.
• Leasing & rentals: Rentals are allowed but must be for at least 30 days — no short-term or hotel-like use. All leases must be in writing and state that the tenant must follow the CC&Rs. The owner remains jointly liable with the tenant for rule violations and fees.
• Pets & animals: Only common household pets (dogs, cats) are allowed, and they cannot be kept for commercial purposes. Dogs must be leashed (max 6 feet) when off the owner's lot and must not enter other lots. Owners must clean up droppings. Noisy or nuisance pets may be removed at the Committee's discretion.
• Parking & vehicles: No inoperable vehicles, trucks, boats, RVs, campers, or trailers may be parked where visible from neighboring property, except for temporary (48 hours in 7 days) parking or vehicles under 7 ft tall and 18 ft long without commercial markings. No parking on streets for more than 48 hours in any 7-day period; overnight guest parking is limited.
• Signs & antennas: No signs, including for sale/rent, are allowed without written approval, except those required by law. Satellite dishes and antennas are allowed per FCC rules but must be ground-mounted if possible and subject to aesthetic guidelines.
• Maintenance & damage repair: Each owner is responsible for maintaining their own lot and home. The public yard (front area visible from street) must be landscaped within 90 days of purchase. After a fire or casualty, repairs must be completed within 6 months.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify any age restrictions; it is not a 55+ community. It does not include association fees, insurance requirements, or rules about common areas (no common amenities described). It also omits any rental cap or owner-occupancy requirement.
