Mariposa Heights

What Mariposa Heights's governing documents say

Mariposa Heights is a single-family subdivision in Wickenburg, AZ, governed by recorded Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that bind all lot owners. The restrictions are enforced by any lot owner, not by a homeowners' association. This document sets rules for building design, lot use, and maintenance to preserve the neighborhood's character.

• Building design & approval: All structures must be new construction, with a minimum of 1,000 sq. ft. of living space. Single-story homes cannot exceed 18 ft. in height; two-story or split-level homes are allowed only on designated lots (2-12, 27, 33, 35, 36). Roofs must be masonry tile unless the Planning Committee grants a written exception. All construction plans must be approved in writing by the Planning Committee.
• Planning Committee: An initial three-person committee (Douglas McLean, Sandra McLean, Milton Cook) approves building designs, materials, and exceptions until all lots are sold, after which a committee elected by a majority of lot owners takes over.
• Guest houses & accessory structures: Separate structures (garages, guest houses, cabanas, etc.) must be connected to the main dwelling by a decorative wall or common roof. A single guest house is allowed (minimum 300 sq. ft.), but it cannot be rented.
• Parking & vehicles: Unused vehicles must be kept under a permanent roof, except for one travel trailer or motor home. No vehicle repairs outside enclosed buildings. No trailer, motor home, tent, or garage may be used for residence before a dwelling is built.
• Fences & walls: No solid wall over 3 ft. high forward of the front building line; no fence or wall over 6 ft. high elsewhere. Hedges must be kept under 3 ft. forward of the building line and under 6 ft. elsewhere.
• Pets & animals: Cats and dogs are allowed only if kept within the owner's property. Animals causing noise or wandering will be dealt with per town bylaws. No livestock of any kind.
• Signs & clotheslines: Only one 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' sign per lot, not exceeding 18 inches square. No outside clotheslines except umbrella-type lines placed behind a fence, hedge, or wall.
• Property maintenance & nuisances: No storage of rubbish or anything that appears untidy, causes odor, or disturbs neighbors. No roof air conditioners or solar panels except on lots 1-7 (with Planning Committee approval).
