Las Casas Bonitas

What Las Casas Bonitas's governing documents say

Las Casas Bonitas is a small condominium community in Phoenix, AZ (initially 2 units, expandable up to 200). You own your unit individually and share ownership of common elements. The community is restricted to single-family residential use only. Homeowners are responsible for maintaining their units and certain limited common elements; the association maintains the rest.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit, including finished surfaces. You must maintain your unit and any limited common elements (like driveways, patios, and yard areas) allocated to your unit. The association maintains all other common elements.
• Residential use only: Units and limited common elements may be used only for single-family residential purposes. No business, trade, or professional activity is allowed on the premises, except that you may keep a personal office or handle business calls from your unit.
• Architectural review: Nonstructural changes inside your unit do not need prior approval, but structural changes require written approval from the Architectural Committee and a licensed engineer. Any change visible from outside the building also needs approval from the adjoining unit owner.
• Assessments & fees: Each unit pays a common expense assessment, initially $100 per month per unit. The board can increase this annually up to the Consumer Price Index increase without a membership vote. Special assessments require approval of 3/4 of voting unit owners.
• Vehicles & parking: No inoperable vehicles may be stored or parked where visible from neighboring property. Vehicle repairs are not allowed unless emergency repairs are out of sight. Parking areas are common elements, and the declarant may reserve spaces during the sales period.
• Leasing & rentals: The document does not specify lease terms or restrictions on rentals. However, any lease must comply with the single-family residential use requirement and the rules adopted by the association.
• Pets: The declaration does not mention pets. Pet rules would be set by the association's rules and regulations.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is the condominium declaration, not the full set of governing documents. Details on pet restrictions, lease durations, age restrictions, and specific amenities are not included. The association's bylaws, rules, and architectural committee rules would address those topics.
