Tempe Royal Palms

What Tempe Royal Palms's governing documents say

Tempe Royal Palms is a townhome/attached-home community governed by a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that apply to all lot owners. This document establishes a homeowners association, defines common areas, and sets rules for use, maintenance, and occupancy. Residents own their lot and home, with shared responsibility for party walls and common elements.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the single-family residence on it, and you must maintain the interior, exterior, and landscaping in good condition. The association maintains common areas (parking, drives, landscaping, pool) funded by assessments.
• Occupancy & leasing: Each lot must be used as a single-family residence occupied by a single family (related by blood/marriage/adoption or up to 3 unrelated persons). Leases must be in writing, for at least 30 days, and cover the entire lot; a copy must be given to the association before the lease begins.
• Pets: Only commonly accepted household pets are allowed. Pets may not be bred on the property, and any pet creating a nuisance may be removed. No specific limit on number is stated, but the board can restrict.
• Architectural review: No exterior changes, additions, fences, signs, or landscaping alterations visible from other lots or common areas may be made without prior written approval from the board or an architectural committee. Interior non-structural changes do not require approval.
• Parking & vehicles: Guest parking spaces are common areas managed by the board. Recreational vehicle parking spaces are rented to owners on a first-come, first-served basis. No vehicle may be parked or operated in a way that creates noise, is unsightly, or detracts from the community's character.
• Party walls & shared structures: Walls, fences, or structures on lot boundaries are party walls. If damaged by an owner's act, that owner pays for repairs. If damaged by normal wear or other causes, adjoining owners share costs equally. No structural integrity may be impaired without consent of all affected owners.
• Use restrictions: No transient or hotel use; no signs other than small for-sale/lease signs; no outdoor cooking except on patio/rear yard; no high-intensity lighting or window air conditioners; no visible antennas, clotheslines, or stored personal property; garbage must be in containers hidden from view.
