Sovanna Condominiums at Scottsdale Country Club

What Sovanna Condominiums at Scottsdale Country Club's governing documents say

Sovanna Condominiums at Scottsdale Country Club is a condominium community in Scottsdale, AZ – you own your unit and a 1/174th share of the common elements. The association maintains common areas and buildings, while unit owners maintain their interior and certain limited common elements (patios/balconies, garage, doors, windows, HVAC). The community is subject to a master declaration for Scottsdale Country Club Village, which may impose additional restrictions.

• What you own & maintain: You own your unit's interior (from unfinished surfaces inward) plus an assigned garage and entrance (for second-floor units). The association maintains all common elements (roofs, exteriors, landscaping, utilities). You must maintain your unit, the garage door, patio/balcony finishes, windows, doors, and the HVAC/water heater.
• Pets: No more than two dogs per unit, each under 20 pounds (unless a service animal). Pets must be on a leash under 6 feet outside the unit, and owners must clean up after them. No pets may be kept on common elements except as allowed.
• Leasing & rentals: You may lease your entire unit only, not partial. Leases must be in writing, and you must notify the association of start/end dates and tenant names. The document does not state a minimum lease term.
• Assessments & finances: Annual common expense assessments start at a maximum of $1,800 per unit (in 2002 dollars), increasing automatically by up to 10% or CPI each year. Higher increases or special assessments require a 2/3 vote of unit owners. Delinquent assessments accrue 18% interest and late fees.
• Use restrictions: Units are for single-family residential use only. Home businesses are allowed if not detectable from outside and comply with zoning. No commercial vehicles may be parked outside garages; garages must be used primarily for parking. No visible signs, clotheslines, or exterior alterations without board approval.
• Architectural review & alterations: Nonstructural interior changes may be made without approval, but any change visible from outside (including window coverings, paint, structural changes) requires prior board approval. Structural additions need a licensed engineer's certification.
• Parking & vehicles: Each unit has an assigned garage. Only family vehicles (cars, vans, SUVs, small pickups) may park in driveways or common spaces. Commercial vehicles, boats, RVs, and trailers must be kept inside the garage. Parking in another unit's garage is prohibited.
• Governing documents & board authority: The association is overseen by a board of directors (initially appointed by declarant, later elected by owners). The board can adopt rules, grant variances, and enforce restrictions. The condominium is also subject to the master declaration of Scottsdale Country Club Village, which overrides any conflicting provisions.
