Corte Bella Country Club

What Corte Bella Country Club's governing documents say

Corte Bella Country Club is an age-restricted (55+) active-adult community in Sun City West, AZ. It is a master-planned community governed by a master association (Corte Bella Country Club Association) and may have sub-associations for neighborhoods. The rules bind all lot owners, residents, and their guests.

• Age restriction (55+): Corte Bella is an age-restricted community. At least 80% of dwelling units must be occupied by at least one person 55 or older. No one under 19 may stay overnight in any dwelling unit for more than 90 days in any 12-month period. Persons 45–54 who purchase from the Declarant may occupy, but eventually a 55+ occupant must be present.
• Activity cards & access: Up to two activity cards are issued per lot, one per qualified occupant (55+ or qualifying 19+). Cards are required to use recreational facilities. Cards are not issued if the lot is not occupied by a qualified occupant. Owners who lease must surrender their cards.
• Property rights & maintenance: Owners have a nonexclusive easement to use common area, subject to board rules. The association maintains common area (landscaping, private streets, perimeter walls, etc.). Owners maintain their lots and dwelling units. Exclusive common area (e.g., within a neighborhood) is maintained by the association and funded by neighborhood assessments.
• Assessments & fees: Base assessments are levied on all lots for common expenses. Neighborhood assessments may be levied for neighborhood-specific costs. Special assessments cover unanticipated expenses. The board may impose late charges and liens for unpaid assessments. There is also a reserve fund fee and a transfer fee referenced.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases are permitted, but the owner must notify the association and surrender activity cards. The occupant may qualify for an activity card only if they are a qualified occupant (55+ or qualifying 19+). No specific minimum lease term is stated in this excerpt.
• Architectural review: All construction or modification of improvements requires approval by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) per the Design Guidelines. Plans and specifications must be submitted. The board may adopt and enforce architectural standards.
• Pets & vehicles: No specific pet or vehicle rules are detailed in this excerpt. The declaration references 'Use Restrictions' in Exhibit C, which are not included. Parking and pet limits would be covered there.
