Hilton Casitas

What Hilton Casitas's governing documents say

Hilton Casitas (Scottsdale, AZ) is a condominium community created in 1972 under Arizona's Horizontal Property Regime Act. You own a 'Casita' — your unit plus an exclusive-use numbered tract and an undivided fractional interest in the general common elements (tracts A–G, roadways, landscaping). The Council of Co‑Owners maintains common areas and carries master insurance, funded by assessments paid by all owners.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit, the exclusive-use numbered tract, and a 1/29 fractional interest in general common elements (tracts A–G, private roadways, guard house, landscaping). The Council maintains the general common elements; you maintain your unit and the improvements on your numbered tract.
• Architectural review: No building, fence, antenna, or other structure may be commenced without prior written approval of the Corporation (developer/declarant), which has broad discretion over design, materials, and harmony with existing buildings. Failure to reject plans within 30 days constitutes approval.
• Council & common expenses: The Council consists of all Casita owners. It votes one vote per Casita. The council sets annual assessments, which cover insurance, maintenance, repairs, reserves, and any new common-element construction approved by 75% of owners. Owners are personally liable for their share. Delinquent assessments become a lien on the Casita.
• Insurance: The Council must purchase casualty (replacement cost), public liability, workers' compensation, and other insurance as determined. Premiums are part of common expenses but may be allocated unequally among owners if the Council deems it fair. Owners may obtain additional coverage at their own cost.
• Enforcement & liens: Failure to comply with the Declaration, Bylaws, or Council rules can result in damages, injunctive relief, or foreclosure of the assessment lien. The Council (or the Corporation if the Council fails to act) may enforce. The owner must pay all enforcement costs, including attorneys' fees.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt omits the detailed use restrictions (Article XIII), such as rules about renting, pets, parking, signs, antennas, and business activities. Those rules are referenced in the table of contents but not transcribed.
