What Sweetwater Ranch Manor's governing documents say
Sweetwater Ranch Manor Unit II is a single-family home subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, governed by a homeowners association (the Sweetwater Ranch Manor Unit II Association). It is part of a larger master-planned community, Sweetwater Ranch Phase II, with a Master Association. These CC&Rs bind all lot owners and describe the rules for property use, maintenance responsibilities, and association operations.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the residential unit on it. You must maintain the exterior of your home and structures. The association maintains common areas (including landscaping in front yards and certain perimeter walls), funded by assessments.
- Assessments & fees: The association levies annual assessments to cover common expenses, plus special assessments for unexpected costs. Assessments are a lien on your lot if unpaid. The maximum annual assessment may increase per the CC&Rs. The master association also may levy assessments.
- Insurance: The association must carry hazard, liability, flood (if in flood zone), and fidelity bond insurance on common areas. Owners are individually responsible for insuring their own home and belongings.
- Rules & regulations: The association board can adopt and enforce reasonable rules about property use, including fines (with membership vote) for violations. Rules may restrict use of common area recreational facilities.
- Party walls: If attached homes share party walls, each owner must share repair and maintenance costs, following general rules of law. (This suggests some homes may be townhomes or attached.)
- Membership & voting: Each lot gets one vote in the association. The developer (Class B) had extra votes until a conversion date (Jan 1, 1991 or when Class A votes equal or exceed Class B votes). Voting rights can be assigned to tenants or buyers under certain conditions.
- Annexation of additional property: New property can be added to the community only by a 2/3 vote of members, approval of eligible mortgage holders, and consent of the property owner being annexed. This maintains community boundaries.
