Shea and 42nd Street

What Shea and 42nd Street's governing documents say

Shea and 42nd Street is a 26-lot single-family home community in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). The HOA maintains common areas (including perimeter wall, landscaping, and drainage tracts) and enforces rules about use, appearance, and leasing. This document is the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that spells out what owners and occupants must follow.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the house on it (townhome, patio home, or detached single-family). You are responsible for maintaining your lot, house, and landscaping (except the 'street-side' landscaping between house and street, which the HOA maintains). The HOA maintains all common areas, including tracts A–C (drainage, open areas) and the perimeter wall.
• Architectural review: Any exterior change—building, fence, wall, landscaping, or alteration visible from other lots or common areas—must be approved in writing by the Board or a Design Review Committee. Plans must be submitted; if not approved or disapproved within 30 days after a regular board meeting, approval is not required, but affirmative written approval is still needed for recordable form.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, for the entire lot, for a minimum of 30 days (the text says 'thirty (80) days' but that appears to be an OCR error for 30). A copy must be given to the HOA before the lease starts. Transient or hotel use is prohibited.
• Pets: Only commonly accepted household pets are allowed on lots. Breeding is prohibited. Pets that create a nuisance may be banned by the Board. Walking pets in common areas is subject to HOA rules, and owners must immediately clean up waste.
• Parking & vehicles: Inoperative vehicles, recreational vehicles, boats, or trailers cannot be parked on any street within the property for more than 48 hours. The Board may ban any vehicle that is unsightly, noisy, or detracts from the community character.
• Use & occupancy: Lots may only be used as single-family residences (one family or up to three unrelated persons). No temporary structures, no accumulation of garbage or debris visible from other lots, and no activity that interferes with other owners' enjoyment.
• Party walls: Walls, fences, or columns on lot boundary lines are party structures. Both adjacent owners share repair costs for ordinary damage; if one owner causes damage, that owner pays. The HOA maintains the perimeter wall.
• Assessments & liens: The HOA levies assessments to cover common expenses (detailed elsewhere; not in this excerpt). Unpaid assessments, fines, and repair costs become a lien on your lot, with interest at prime rate plus 4%, plus attorneys' fees.
