What DC Ranch Association's governing documents say
This is the master governing document for DC Ranch Association, a master-planned community in Scottsdale, AZ. It applies to all property owners within 'The Ranch' and creates a hierarchy of governance including the Covenant Commission (design review), the Community Council (community-wide coordination), and the Association (Ranch-wide standards and maintenance). Individual neighborhoods may have additional rules.
- What you own & maintain: You own your individual unit (lot or dwelling) and are responsible for its maintenance and insurance. The Association maintains the Common Area and other designated areas to a 'Ranch-Wide Standard'. Neighborhoods may have additional maintenance responsibilities funded by separate assessments.
- Architectural review: All exterior modifications require approval. The Covenant Commission has primary design review authority, but may delegate to the Association's Modifications Committee. Applications must be submitted and approved within 30 days; deemed approved if no response. Variances are possible in narrow circumstances.
- Leasing & rentals: The Association cannot prohibit leasing or require consent, but may impose a minimum lease term of up to 12 months. Lease forms may be required, and a reasonable administrative fee may be charged. All leases must bind tenants to the governing documents.
- Assessments & fees: The Association levies Base Assessments (for common expenses) and Neighborhood Assessments (for neighborhood-specific services). Special and Specific Assessments are also permitted. Assessments are a lien on the property. The initial Base Assessment amount is not specified in this excerpt.
- Rules & enforcement: The Board may adopt, modify, or repeal Use Restrictions and Rules, subject to member input and disapproval by a majority of Class A votes plus the Class B member. Rules must be reasonable and treat similarly situated owners alike. The Association may enforce rules through fines or other remedies.
- Governance structure: The Ranch is part of the larger DC Ranch community. The Covenant Commission controls design, the Community Council coordinates community-wide matters, and the DC Ranch Association manages the Ranch. Owners are Class A members; the Declarant is Class B with control until termination of the Class B Control Period. Voting is through elected Voting Members per neighborhood.
