Medallion at Power Ranch

What Medallion at Power Ranch's governing documents say

This is a supplementary declaration adding specific easements and restrictions to certain lots within the Medallion at Power Ranch neighborhood, part of the larger Power Ranch master-planned community in Phoenix, AZ. It creates rear yard, driveway, and side yard easements between adjacent lots for drainage, access, and maintenance, and imposes detailed use restrictions on those easement areas. All lots are also subject to the Power Ranch Master Declaration and the authority of the Power Ranch Community Association.

• Easements between lots: Three types of perpetual easements are created: Rear Yard (exclusive use by benefited lot for landscaping/drainage), Driveway (exclusive use for driveway, parking, ingress/egress), and Side Yard (nonexclusive for drainage). Easement areas are approximately 5 feet wide, determined by as-built locations of walls, driveways, and homes.
• Restrictions on easement use: No modifications to slope or grading are allowed. No swimming pools, spas, concrete pads, or structures. No combustible materials, grills, or propane. No trees within 5 feet of a wall. No plants listed on Exhibit C (e.g., eucalyptus, elm, maple, weeping willow). No attachments to the benefited lot's exterior wall. Rainwater drainage from roofs is permitted.
• Maintenance responsibility: For Rear Yard and Driveway Easements, the benefited lot owner maintains the easement area at their own expense. For Side Yard Easements, the burdened lot (the lot the easement is on) is responsible. The burdened lot owner must allow access for maintenance of the benefited lot's walls and roof, with reasonable notice.
• Subordination to Master Declaration: This declaration is subordinate to the Power Ranch Master Declaration, articles of incorporation, bylaws, and rules. In case of conflict, the Master Declaration controls unless this document is more restrictive. All lot owners are subject to the Master Association's jurisdiction.
• Amendments and termination: The declaration runs for 20 years from recording (2004), with automatic 10-year extensions. Can be terminated earlier by a recorded instrument signed by 90% of lot owners. Amendments require approval of 2/3 of lot owners and the Master Association board; the developer (Declarant) has special amendment rights while owning lots.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is a supplemental declaration focused solely on easements and related restrictions. It does not set general HOA rules (e.g., pet limits, leasing restrictions, architectural guidelines, assessments, or age restrictions). Those are governed by the Power Ranch Master Declaration and other community documents.
