What Rio Verde's governing documents say
Rio Verde is a single-family home HOA in Phoenix, AZ. This document is a 2003 amendment to the community's governing rules, changing definitions of exempt property and clarifying the association's lien rights for unpaid assessments.
- Exempt Property (not subject to assessments): Golf course land and improvements (excluding clubhouse, pools, parking, and maintenance areas), government-owned land, common areas owned by the association, and certain residential lots consolidated before May 17, 2001 under a single-membership policy are exempt from annual and special assessments.
- Assessment liens & enforcement: The association has a continuing lien on each lot for unpaid assessments, with power of sale. Default allows the board to foreclose via court action like a mortgage, with interest, costs, and attorneys' fees recoverable. Members waive objection to this enforcement method.
- What this document doesn't cover: This is only a 2003 amendment; it does not include the full declaration of covenants, architectural rules, pet policies, leasing restrictions, or other operational rules. Homeowners should refer to the complete governing documents.
