Four Hills Ranch Property Owners Association

What Four Hills Ranch Property Owners Association's governing documents say

Four Hills Ranch is a rural property owners association in Coconino County, Arizona, where you own individual large parcels and automatically become bound by the association's covenants upon taking title. The association maintains common roadways, gates, and designated common facilities funded by per-parcel annual assessments. The community emphasizes ranching and livestock use, with grazing rights retained by a lessee but owners able to fence and exclude livestock from their own parcels.

• What you own & maintain: You own your individual parcel and are responsible for your residence and improvements. The association maintains common roadways (including snow removal), gates, fences, drainage facilities, designated wells, and other common areas.
• Home & building requirements: Site-built homes limited to 2 stories, minimum 480 square feet, compliant with Coconino County regulations. Septic systems must be installed before home placement; construction must complete within 12 months of starting. All structures set back 50 feet from front, 30 feet from sides/rear. Mobile or manufactured homes cannot be more than 5 years old from manufacture date and must be skirted.
• Ranching & livestock: Grazing rights on your parcel are retained by Arizona Land & Ranches, Inc., but you may fence to exclude livestock and suspend grazing over the fenced area. You may keep reasonable numbers of horses and cattle for ranching; no swine, dairies, stables, kennels, or commercial animal operations permitted. Fencing must follow wildlife-friendly standards: smooth wire on bottom strand 18 inches above ground, maximum 60 inches total height.
• Parcel subdivision & resale: Original parcels cannot be resold for 18 months after purchase or subdivided for 4 years (declarant may grant variance for construction purposes). Parcels may subdivide up to 3 times maximum (4 parcels total), with 10-acre minimum lot size and 150 feet of road frontage required for each new parcel.
• Vehicles & equipment storage: No inoperable or under-repair vehicles on roadways, driveways, or easements. If parked on your parcel, must be hidden from view with walls, fences, screens, or foliage. All vehicles, engines, and motors must have mufflers and spark arrestors.
• Prohibited uses: No medical facilities, churches, religious institutions, junkyards, auto repair, second-hand businesses, or commercial animal operations. Travel trailers and RVs prohibited as permanent residences (temporary use capped at 3 consecutive months per year unless you have a building permit for construction). Trucks, cars, buses, machinery, or materials must be fully enclosed.
• Tree preservation & environmental protection: Trees 6 inches or larger (measured 2 feet above ground) may only be cut if dead/dying or removal is necessary for building sites, roads, fire prevention, utilities, view corridors, or recreation. No more than 20% of any parcel may be cleared.
• Annual assessments & enforcement: Initial annual assessment is $189 per parcel ($15.84 for common roadway maintenance) or $5.26 per acre for pre-2007 subdivisions; the association sets amounts annually with 30 days' notice. Special assessments require 2/3 vote with 25% quorum. Unpaid assessments are a lien on the parcel; foreclosure is permitted. Violations require 15 days to correct after notice, or the association may correct at your expense and charge the cost as an assessment.
