The Manors at Baseline

What The Manors at Baseline's governing documents say

This is the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions for The Manors at Baseline, a single-family home subdivision in Phoenix, Arizona. It creates a homeowners' association (HOA) and sets rules that apply to all lot owners, their residents, and guests. The document governs lot use, maintenance, assessments, architectural changes, parking, and community standards.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and detached dwelling unit (house, garage, patio). The HOA maintains the common areas (tracts A-D) and 'Areas of Association Responsibility.' You must maintain your unit, landscaping, and fences; the HOA may enter your lot for repairs with notice.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the Board and can increase up to 20% per year without a vote; larger increases require >50% member approval. Special assessments require 2/3 vote. A $200 transfer fee is due on resale (except from Declarant). Initial working capital equals 1/4 of annual assessment.
• Architectural review: All exterior changes (landscaping, fences, sheds, paint, etc.) require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. Fences must be masonry block, max 6 feet tall. Front yards must be landscaped within 90 days of purchase, including at least one 15-gallon non-deciduous tree.
• Parking & vehicles: Commercial or recreational vehicles (boats, RVs, trailers, etc.) are not allowed unless parked in a screened 'Recreational Vehicle Parking Area' approved by the Architectural Committee. Family vehicles (cars, SUVs, small pickups under 1 ton) are allowed. Overnight parking of non-family vehicles is only on a nonrecurring, temporary basis.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. No business or commercial activity is allowed. No signs except approved ones. No drilling, mining, or hazardous waste. Antennas and satellite dishes are permitted if under 1 meter. Leasing is allowed but must comply with the Declaration (no minimum term stated in excerpt; see full document). No more than 4 unrelated adults per household.
• Leasing & rentals: The document mentions leasing in Section 8.13 but the excerpt is truncated. Based on available text, leasing is permitted subject to Association rules; the full document should be consulted for specific restrictions.
• Pets: The document does not explicitly list pet restrictions in the provided excerpt, but the Association may limit the number and type of pets using common areas (Section 2.1(a)). Specific pet limits are not stated; check Association Rules.
