La Bella Vida

What La Bella Vida's governing documents say

La Bella Vida is a single-family home community in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions applies to all owners, residents, and tenants, establishing rules for property use, maintenance, and appearance.

• Architectural review: Most exterior changes visible from neighboring property must be approved in writing by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC), including landscaping, paint, structures, and additions. The ARC has 45 days to respond; failure to approve means denial. A compliance deposit may be required.
• Residential use & business: Lots must be used for single-family residential purposes only. Home-based businesses are allowed if not detectable from outside, comply with zoning, involve no customer visits or solicitation, and do not create a nuisance.
• Leasing & rentals: An owner may lease an entire lot, but leases must be in writing, for at least 30 days, and include a clause that the lease is subject to the Declaration and Project Documents. The owner must provide tenant names and contact info to the Association.
• Pets: Only common household pets are allowed (no livestock, poultry, reptiles). Dogs must be leashed (max 6 ft) off the owner's lot. Pet enclosures visible from neighboring property require ARC approval. The Board may decide if a pet is a nuisance or if the number is reasonable.
• Parking & vehicles: No commercial vehicles, trucks, RVs, boats, or trailers may be parked visible from neighboring property, except in garages or as allowed by law. Street parking is limited to one vehicle per household, moved every 48 hours (guests every 24 hours). Unlicensed or off-road vehicles are prohibited. Garages must be used for parking, not converted to living space.
• Signs & flags: Signs visible from neighboring property generally require ARC approval, except for one 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' sign, political signs (subject to size/number limits), and flags that cannot be prohibited by law (e.g., U.S. flag, state flag). Even permitted flags must comply with Design Guidelines.
• Nuisances & maintenance: No nuisances (odors, noise, debris, etc.) are allowed. Trash must be kept in covered containers, visible only during collection. Clotheslines, outdoor fires, and basketball goals require ARC approval. Window coverings must be installed within 60 days; reflective materials need approval.
