The Private Residences on Crescent Moon Drive

What The Private Residences on Crescent Moon Drive's governing documents say

The Private Residences on Crescent Moon Drive is a residential lot community in Scottsdale, Arizona, part of the master-planned Crescent Moon Ranch. You own your individual Lot; the association maintains Common Areas and Private Roads, funded by assessments. The developer (Declarant) retains extensive control during the development phase until 95% of lots are sold.

• What you own & maintain: You own your individual Lot (dwelling unit, garages, and structures thereon). The Association owns and maintains all Common Areas including Private Roads, facilities, landscaping, and utilities not individually metered.
• Assessments & penalties: You pay proportionate-share Regular Assessments for common expenses, plus Special, Capital Improvement, Neighborhood, and Reconstruction Assessments as needed. Design non-compliance can incur fines up to $10,000.
• Architectural review & approval: All modifications require Design Review Committee approval. The Declarant (developer) retains approval authority during the development phase, and the Master Association Board may veto designs. Approval is required before work begins.
• Use restrictions: Lots are restricted to residential use only. Mining is prohibited; the community also restricts parking, exterior modifications, garbage storage, and nuisances. Specific animal restrictions exist but are unclear from the document text.
• Access to common areas & facilities: You have non-exclusive rights to Common Areas and facilities. The Association may charge fees for facility use and can suspend your access (up to 60 days for a single violation, up to one year for repeat violations) or for delinquent assessments—but cannot block access needed to reach your Lot.
• Developer control & transition: The Declarant (developer) controls the Association and retains approval authority for design, amendments, and governance until 95% of Lots are sold or the Declarant voluntarily transfers control.
• Voting & assessment suspension: Each Lot has one vote; if multiple people own one Lot, only one designated individual may vote. Voting rights are automatically suspended if assessments are delinquent.
• Private amenities & resort: Adjacent to the community are privately-owned resort and recreational facilities (including a Four Seasons Resort) operated separately from the Association, typically on a club or membership-fee basis.
