Kaufman and Broad at Arizona Estates

What Kaufman and Broad at Arizona Estates's governing documents say

Kaufman and Broad at Arizona Estates is a single-family residential planned community in Chandler, Arizona, governed by an HOA that controls the design, use, and maintenance of properties to preserve community appearance and value. You own your individual lot and dwelling; the Association maintains common areas, funded by per-lot assessments, and enforces design and conduct standards that bind all owners and tenants.

• What you own & maintain: You own your dwelling and lot; the Association maintains common areas. Owners must landscape their lot within 90 days of purchase and maintain the exterior in a neat, clean condition consistent with other improved lots. If a dwelling is damaged, you must repair it within 18 months.
• Architectural review & design control: Any exterior improvement, change, or landscaping visible from neighboring property requires Design Review Committee approval before installation. The Committee has 60 days to decide on applications and may charge a reasonable fee. Variances can be granted if the change does not substantially harm neighbors.
• Parking & vehicles: Only personal passenger vehicles ≤1 ton capacity, ≤84" tall/wide, and ≤222" long may park in your garage or driveway. RVs, boats, trailers, commercial vehicles, or oversized trucks are not permitted (except inside a closed garage). Vehicle repair or construction is prohibited outside a fully enclosed garage; non-working vehicles cannot park in open spaces.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must run at least 30 days; no short-term or vacation rentals permitted. You must lease your entire lot as one unit. Tenants are bound by the Declaration, and you remain liable for all tenant violations.
• Residential use & home business: The community is residential only. Limited home business is allowed if not visible, audible, or detectable by smell from outside; does not generate customer traffic, solicitation, or parking; complies with zoning; and is consistent with residential character.
• Assessments, fees & enforcement: Assessments are allocated equally per lot and due 15 days after notice. Late payment incurs a charge (the greater of $15/month or 10% of unpaid amount) plus collection costs and attorneys' fees. The Association holds a lien on your property for unpaid amounts and may suspend your voting rights and common-area access for up to 60 days (renewable) for rule violations or delinquency.
• Design & appearance restrictions: Garages must stay closed except for vehicle entry/exit and serve only for parking and storage; all driveways must be concrete with no detached garages permitted. HVAC units, clotheslines, reflective window coverings, and trash burning are restricted or prohibited from view; basketball goals are not allowed in front yards; pets in reasonable numbers (as determined by the Board) are allowed but must not be a nuisance.
• Party walls & shared boundaries: If a shared wall between adjoining lots is damaged due to your act or negligence, you pay for repair. If damaged by another owner's act or ordinary wear and tear, repair costs are split equally among affected owners based on linear footage of their lot.
