What Continental Tempe's governing documents say

Continental Tempe is a single-family home subdivision in Tempe, AZ. These covenants run with the land and bind all homeowners. They detail use restrictions, architectural review requirements, and shared fence obligations.

• Pets: No more than three household pets (dogs, cats, birds, or fish) per lot. Pets must not become a nuisance or threat to others, and cannot be kept for commercial purposes.
• Parking & vehicles: On-street parking is limited to deliveries and short-term guests. Vehicles must be parked only in the carport or driveway. No buses, vans, motor homes, RVs, or trucks over 3/4-ton capacity are allowed on lots unless screened from view.
• Outdoor storage & equipment: No exterior storage of items (including woodpiles, camping trailers, boats) unless attractively screened. No exterior antennas, speakers/amplifiers, or outdoor lighting except indirect lighting. No machinery (except HVAC) on the ground unless screened.
• Fences & structures: Front fences cannot be closer to the street than the front wall of the house. Side and rear fences cannot exceed 6 feet in height. Any new fence, wall, or other structure requires prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee.
• Party fences: Neighbors sharing a party fence have equal use rights. If one owner damages the fence, they must repair at their own cost. If the fence is damaged by wear and tear or other causes, the adjoining owners share repair costs equally.
• Duration of restrictions: These covenants run with the land for 30 years from recording (1972 for Unit I, 1983 for Unit II), then automatically renew for successive 10-year periods unless a majority of lot owners agree to change them.
