What Sun Gardens's governing documents say
This document is a 1996 amendment to the governing declaration for Sun Gardens, a single-family homeowners association (HOA) in Scottsdale, AZ. It only changes one paragraph and does not restate the full rules of the community.
- Water metering & billing: The amendment authorizes the HOA board to convert to individual water meters, bill owners for water usage in the same manner as assessments, and grants the association an easement to install, repair, and read meters.
- What this document doesn't cover: This amendment is a partial document; it does not contain the full declaration, restrictions, or rules for the community (e.g., pet limits, leasing, age restrictions, architectural standards, or assessment amounts). Those would be found in the original declaration and other recorded documents.
