Tierra Bella

What Tierra Bella's governing documents say

Tierra Bella is a single-family residential community in Scottsdale, AZ where you own an individual lot subject to strict architectural and landscaping controls enforced by a community committee. The HOA maintains common areas (private roadway and access gates) and levies annual and special assessments; homes must conform to specific design standards, and most exterior modifications require committee approval.

• What you own & maintain: You own your home and lot; the association maintains the private roadway and unmanned access gates. You're responsible for keeping your exterior in good condition, maintaining landscaping (mowed, watered, free of weeds and dead plants), and repairing any damage promptly.
• Residential use: Lots are restricted to single-family residential use only. Limited home-based businesses are permitted if they're invisible from outside (no sight, sound, or smell), require no employees except family members, comply with zoning, and don't disrupt the residential character. Garage sales are limited to one per 12 months.
• Leasing & rentals: Only entire homes may be rented—no room rentals or transient/hotel-type leases. Leases must be in writing and require tenants to comply with all community rules or face lease default. You must notify the association of lease dates and tenant names.
• Architectural & landscaping review: A committee must approve all exterior modifications including HVAC units, solar panels, fencing, roofing, window treatments, antennas, and satellite dishes. Fences are limited to 6 feet maximum; only concrete or clay tile roofs are permitted; roofs must not be flat unless hidden behind a parapet wall.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles must park in driveways or garages only—not on streets except briefly for loading. RVs, boats, trailers, and off-road vehicles are prohibited from parking on streets. Violations can result in towing at owner's expense.
• Prohibited structures & items: No temporary buildings, trailers, sheds, or clotheslines. Basketball goals, antennas, satellite dishes, air conditioners, and pool equipment must be screened from neighbors or approved by the committee. Signage is mostly prohibited except for identification signs (max 84 square inches) and 'for sale' signs.
• Assessments & liens: Annual and special assessments are levied on all owners to fund common area maintenance and operations. Non-payment of assessments creates a lien that the association can enforce against the property.
• Access gates & security: Two unmanned gates control access via remote openers; each initial owner receives two remote units. The gate on Parkview Lane is for egress only. Gates are not guaranteed to prevent emergency delays, and owners assume all risk that gates may restrict fire, police, or ambulance access.
