What Sonora Vista's governing documents say
Sonora Vista is a single-family home subdivision in Scottsdale, AZ, governed by a Homeowners Association (HOA). This document is the full set of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CCRs) that bind all lot owners. Living here requires compliance with strict architectural, landscaping, and use rules.
- Architectural review: All exterior changes (construction, fencing, landscaping) need prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. Minimum dwelling size is 2,800 sq ft, height max 25 ft, and design must be Santa Fe, Spanish, Mediterranean, or Santa Barbara style. Roofing must be clay or sand cast tile; no composition siding.
- Land use & home businesses: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Home businesses are allowed if not detectable from outside, conform to zoning, and don't increase HOA insurance or create nuisance. No timeshares, group homes, or further subdivision.
- Parking & vehicles: Vehicles must be parked in the garage; up to 2 may park on driveway. No street parking over 4 hours. No RVs, boats, or trucks over 1 ton (except pickups) without approval. No major repairs outside garage.
- Pets: No more than 3 household pets (cats, dogs) per lot. No commercial breeding. Dogs must not stray onto other lots, and owners must keep them quiet.
- Assessments & fees: Annual regular assessment initially capped at $1,500/year per lot, payable quarterly. Increases limited to 10% or CPI (whichever higher) unless 51% vote approves more. Special assessments require majority vote. Late fees: $25 plus 12% interest. Liens may be filed for nonpayment.
- Fencing & walls: Fences must match home's style, concrete block with stucco. Rear/side fences max 7 ft, front/side street fences max 3 ft. Shared boundary fence costs split equally between neighbors.
- Landscaping & maintenance: Front yard landscaping must be completed within 90 days of home completion, with minimum 2 trees (36-inch box, 8 caliper inches). HOA may step in and lien if not done. Owners must keep lot free of weeds and debris.
- What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify rental restrictions (no minimum lease term), age restrictions, or details on common area amenities. It also does not address specific HOA rules that may be adopted later.
