The North Slope

What The North Slope's governing documents say

The North Slope is a planned community in Phoenix, AZ (likely attached townhomes due to common-wall provisions) governed by a homeowners association (HOA). The CC&Rs apply to all lot owners and their tenants. Key restrictions include: residential use only, leasing permitted only of entire lots, architectural review for exterior changes, limits on pets, vehicles, signs, and outdoor equipment, and shared responsibility for common walls.

• Residential use & leasing: All lots must be used exclusively for residential purposes. Leasing is allowed only for the entire lot (including improvements) — no partial or short-term partial rentals. No minimum lease term is specified.
• Architectural review: Exterior changes (construction, additions, alterations, color changes) require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Authority (initially the declarant, later a committee). Approval is deemed granted if not acted on within 60 days of a complete submission.
• Animals: Only generally recognized house or yard pets are allowed, in reasonable numbers, and not for commercial purposes. Dogs and cats must be leashed (max 6 ft) when off the owner's lot, and owners must immediately remove droppings. Structures for animal housing must not be visible from neighboring property.
• Vehicles & parking: No mobile homes, motor homes, trailers, boats, or trucks over ¾-ton GVWR may be kept on streets, sidewalks, or front yards unless completely enclosed by a fence or wall. Temporary construction shelters are exempt.
• Signs & outdoor items: Signs are generally prohibited except for one 'for sale' or 'for rent' sign (max 432 sq in) and legally required signs. Outside clotheslines and antennas must not be visible from neighboring property. Trash containers must be hidden except on collection day.
• Common walls: Adjoining lot owners share equal rights to common walls. Damage caused by an owner must be repaired at that owner's cost; damage from other causes is shared equally. Modifications to a common wall require written consent of the adjoining owner.
• Nuisances & general restrictions: No nuisance activities, excessive noise, or unsightly conditions. Buildings must be kept in good repair. Further subdivision of lots is prohibited. Mineral exploration and infectious conditions are also prohibited.
