Moon Valley Golf Lots Townhouse Association

What Moon Valley Golf Lots Townhouse Association's governing documents say

Moon Valley Golf Lots is a townhouse community in Phoenix, Arizona where you own your individual unit and the lot beneath it, while the association owns and maintains the common areas and building exteriors. All owners pay uniform monthly assessments plus possible special assessments; the association can foreclose on delinquent accounts. Architectural control is strict, with a committee reviewing all exterior changes.

• What you own & maintain: You own the townhouse interior and your entire lot. You're responsible for maintaining the interior, interior fixtures (from where utilities enter the wall outward), termite control, and all areas within your lot boundaries. The association maintains common areas, building roofs, exterior walls, and exterior features (except windows, doors, and hardware).
• Monthly assessments and fees: You pay uniform monthly assessments set by the board, due on the 1st of each month and delinquent if not paid by the 20th (late charges apply). You also pay a one-time $250 transfer fee when you purchase the unit, exempting only inheritance, estate planning transfers, and transfers to entities you control.
• Capital and special assessments: Capital improvement assessments are capped at 10% of annual common expenses per year without a vote; amounts exceeding that require a two-thirds (2/3) owner vote. The association may levy special assessments to reimburse for bringing owners into compliance, repair costs, fines, or damage caused by individual owners.
• Party walls (shared walls between units): Walls between adjacent townhouses are joint responsibility. If your actions or those of your family, guests, or tenants damage a party wall, you must repair it at your cost within 30 days. If damage results from other causes (like weather or decay), you and the adjoining owner split repair costs equally. Any modification to a party wall requires written consent from the neighbor, the architectural committee, and the board.
• Repairs caused by your actions: You must repair any damage you or your occupants cause to the common area, your townhouse, party walls, or garages within 30 days. If you don't repair it, the association may make the repair and bill you; unpaid bills accrue 8% annual interest and become a lien on your property that can be foreclosed.
• Architectural review and restrictions: All exterior changes—including paint colors, additions, roofing, fencing, landscaping, and siding—require approval from the architectural committee. Buildings are limited to one story, 18 feet maximum height (measured from curb), minimum 1,700 square feet, and a minimum 7-foot front setback. Exterior walls must be stucco matching the existing color and texture; you may repaint in the same color without approval.
• Voting rights: Each lot owner receives one vote per lot owned. Your voting rights are automatically suspended if you are 20 or more days delinquent on assessments or in default on other covenant obligations; voting is restored once the delinquency or default is cured.
