Los Paseos

What Los Paseos's governing documents say

Los Paseos is a condominium community in Phoenix, AZ — you own your individual unit and share ownership of the common elements (e.g., grounds, buildings) as tenants in common. The declaration governs all unit owners and residents, with the association managing common areas, enforcing rules, and collecting assessments.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit; the association maintains the common elements and carries master insurance. Each unit has an equal 1/108 undivided interest in common elements. You must maintain your unit's interior and avoid impairing easements or other units.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set uniformly per unit. Special assessments for capital improvements require a 2/3 vote of members (with 60% quorum at first meeting, then half that). Unpaid assessments accrue 18% annual interest and become a lien. A working capital fee of 1/6 of the annual assessment is due from initial purchasers; subsequent transfers incur a $50 fee (adjustable by the board).
• Use restrictions — pets, parking, & business: Only dogs, cats, or other household pets are allowed, subject to association rules; no commercial breeding or unreasonable numbers. No parking of vehicles, boats, campers, or bicycles except in designated visitor areas; inoperable vehicles prohibited. No business activities, signs, billboards, clotheslines, or exterior antennas without board approval.
• Architectural control: Any exterior addition, alteration, or structure (including landscaping, fences, awnings) requires written approval from the board or architectural committee. If no decision within 30 days after submission, approval is deemed granted.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases are permitted but must include a written agreement that the tenant abides by the declaration, bylaws, and rules. Failure to comply is a default under the lease. No minimum lease term is specified in this document.
• Party walls & limited common elements: Walls between units are party walls and considered common elements. Owners share restoration costs if damaged. Limited common elements (e.g., mailboxes, meters, patios, landings) are reserved for specific units; patios may be used for landscaping and recreation but not for storing vehicles.
• Amendments & duration: The declaration runs for 10 years from recording and auto-renews for 10-year periods. During the first 3 years, the board may amend; thereafter, amendments require approval of 75% of unit owners. Certain changes require consent from a majority of eligible mortgagees.
