What The Golf Villas at Gainey Ranch's governing documents say
The Golf Villas at Gainey Ranch is a single-family home community in Phoenix, AZ, governed by this Satellite Declaration (part of a larger master-planned community). It establishes a homeowners association, common areas, and rules for all lot owners. This document is subordinate to the Master Declaration for Gainey Ranch.
- What you own & maintain: You own the lot and dwelling unit. The association maintains common areas, front yard landscaping, and certain amenities. You must maintain your dwelling unit's exterior, the portion of your lot not maintained by the association, and comply with architectural standards.
- Assessments & fees: Regular and special assessments are levied by the board at a uniform rate per lot. Individual assessments may cover maintenance costs caused by your negligence or violations. Delinquent assessments bear interest at the default rate (prime plus 4%, minimum 18% per annum) and become a lien on your property.
- Voting & membership: Each lot owner is a member of the association with one vote. Until 75% of lots are sold to third parties, the declarant (builder) holds Class B voting power (10 votes per lot owned). After turnover, owners elect the board.
- Architectural review: All landscaping and improvements on your lot require approval from the Architectural Committee. The committee sets standards and can require removal of non-compliant work.
- Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. No unlawful or nuisance activities. You must maintain your property to avoid detracting from the community's appearance.
- Common area use: You and your guests may use common areas (e.g., pool, tennis courts, greenbelts) subject to association rules. Use can be suspended for unpaid assessments or rule violations.
- Mandatory services: You must participate in the master security system and pay for cable television service to your lot whether or not you use it. Golf course adjacent properties assume risk of golf balls and release the association from related claims.
- What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify pet limits, lease restrictions, or age requirements. The document is truncated; full details on architectural guidelines, association rules, and master declaration provisions are not included.
