Recorded covenants run with the land, but there is no mandatory homeowners association collecting dues.
We didn't find proxy provisions in the governing documents on file. This usually means the bylaws haven't been uploaded yet.

What Lookout Vista's governing documents say
Lookout Vista is a single-family home HOA in Phoenix, AZ — each homeowner owns their lot and house, and the association maintains shared common areas (including public equestrian/hiking trails). This Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) is the full rulebook for the community, binding all owners and their tenants, guests, and successors.
- Use restrictions (single-family): Lots are for single-family residential use only. No transient/hotel use, no timeshares or condos. A home-based business is allowed only if it is not detectable from outside, complies with zoning, and doesn't increase insurance or create nuisance.
- Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, for the entire lot, and for a minimum 30-day rental period. A copy must be provided to the association before the lease starts. The owner is responsible for tenant conduct.
- Pets & animals: Only customary household pets (dogs, cats, birds) are allowed, in reasonable numbers not creating a nuisance. The board can decide on disputes. Animal waste must be cleaned promptly. No livestock or poultry.
- Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the board, with a starting max of $240 per lot (adjustable annually by inflation or up to 10% without owner vote). Special assessments require 2/3 owner approval. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot, with 12% interest and $25 late fee.
- Architectural control & approvals: An Architectural Control Committee must approve all exterior changes, including home size (minimum 1,200 sq ft livable area), solar collectors, antennas, satellite dishes (not visible from street), and any sheds or play equipment. No more than two identical model/elevation houses in a row.
- Maintenance responsibilities: Owners must maintain their lot and house in good condition (roof, paint, stucco, etc.). The association maintains common areas, including drainage easements on certain lots. Owners cannot modify association-maintained areas.
- Insurance: The association carries comprehensive public liability insurance (minimum $1M per occurrence) and fidelity bonds. Owners are responsible for their own property insurance for the house and personal liability.
