Sonoran Reserve

What Sonoran Reserve's governing documents say

Sonoran Reserve is a standard single-family home HOA in Scottsdale, AZ. The Declaration binds all owners and occupants to rules that protect the community's desert aesthetic and high-end character. If you buy here, you own your lot and house, while the Association maintains the private road, access gate, and common areas funded by assessments.

• Architectural review: All exterior improvements must be approved by an Architectural Committee. Dwelling units must exceed 3,200 sq ft, have a Santa Fe or contemporary design, and not exceed 30 ft in height. Exterior colors must have a light reflective value under 35%, and roofs must be flat or low pitch (max 5/12). A $1,000 review fee is due with plan submission.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases are permitted only for the entire lot (no partial rentals) and for a term of at least 30 days. The owner is responsible for tenant compliance with all HOA rules.
• Vehicles & parking: Only private passenger vehicles and pickup trucks under 1 ton, 84 inches tall, and 222 inches long may be parked in driveways or garages. Boats, RVs, trailers, and commercial vehicles must be stored inside a fully enclosed garage. No vehicle repairs outside the garage.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for residential use only, with limited home business allowed if it doesn't create nuisance or solicitation. No livestock, no offensive odors or noise, and no antennas visible from neighboring property (except small satellite dishes under 1 meter).
• Landscaping & maintenance: Owners must keep their lots trimmed, weed-free, and planted with approved species from the City's native plant list (see Exhibit B). Dead plants must be replaced promptly. Grass is allowed only in contained yards not visible from streets or neighbors.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are levied equally on all lots to cover common expenses like road and gate maintenance. Special assessments require 2/3 vote of members. Late payments incur a $10 monthly charge plus collection costs. Delinquent assessments become a lien on the lot, enforceable by foreclosure.
• Common areas & gate: The Association maintains the private roadway (Tract A) and an access gate. Each original owner gets 2 gate remotes; replacements cost a fee set by the Association. The gate is unmanned, and neither the Association nor Declarant is liable for emergency response delays.
