What The Plaza Residences's governing documents say

The Plaza Residences is a 348-unit condominium community in Phoenix, Arizona. Unit owners own their individual units and share undivided interests in the common elements. This declaration sets the rules for living in the community, covering use restrictions, pets, leasing, parking, and more. All owners, tenants, and guests must comply with these governing documents.

• Use restrictions: Units are for single-family residential use only. No business or commercial activity is allowed unless it is not visible or detectable from outside the unit and does not generate customer traffic. Limited home-based businesses may be permitted with board approval.
• Pets: Only a reasonable number of common household pets are allowed, as determined by the board. Dogs must be leashed (max 6 feet) when outside the unit. Owners must immediately remove pet waste. No structures for pet care are visible from neighboring property.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing and for a minimum of 30 days. Owners must notify the association of lease start/end dates and tenant names. Purchasers from the declarant cannot lease their unit for the first 12 months after purchase. Tenants must comply with all governing documents.
