Countryside Villas HOA

What Countryside Villas HOA's governing documents say

Countryside Villas is a standard single-family home HOA in Arizona, consisting of 72 lots in the Countryside Shadows subdivision. The association maintains common areas and provides a separate optional community club. Rules bind all lot owners, their tenants, and guests.

• Leasing & rentals: Owners may lease their dwelling units, but any lease must include a provision requiring the tenant to abide by the HOA's rules, bylaws, and declaration. If the lease lacks this provision, the board may declare it void.
• Pets: A reasonable number of household or yard pets (ordinarily no more than two per household) is allowed, provided they are not kept for commercial purposes and do not become a nuisance. The board may determine if a particular animal or number is reasonable.
• Vehicles & parking: Vehicles (including trucks, cars, bicycles, motorcycles) are subject to board rules. Outside storage of commercial vehicles, boats, trailers, campers, or inoperable vehicles is prohibited. Garage doors must remain closed except when entering or exiting.
• Architectural review: No exterior changes (buildings, fences, walls, roofs, color schemes) may be made without prior written board approval. Plans must be submitted; if the board does not approve or disapprove within 30 days, approval is deemed given.
• Use restrictions: Lots and dwellings must be used solely for private residential purposes. No gainful occupation, trade, or nonresidential use is allowed. Signs are generally prohibited except for legal, developer, or approved for-sale/lease signs.
• Assessments: The association levies annual assessments and may levy special assessments for capital improvements. Failure to pay creates a lien on the lot. The board may also impose fines of up to $50 per violation and suspend common-area use for up to 30 days after notice and hearing.
• Exterior maintenance & appearance: Owners must maintain their lots and dwelling exteriors to a high standard. If an owner fails to maintain, the association may enter and perform maintenance, adding the cost to the owner's assessment. Unsightly articles, trash, and clotheslines must be screened from view.
