Overview

Includes restrictions for a planned community association (association) in regulating dogs and cats.

History

A condominium or planned community association (HOA) is formed and organized under governing documents which include a declaration, bylaws and articles of incorporation, if any. An HOA is responsible for managing, maintaining and improving community property. Members of the association elect a board of directors who are given general management powers to act on behalf of the association. Statute dictates a condominium and a planned community association be organized as either a profit, nonprofit corporation or as an unincorporated association (Title 33, Chapters 9 & 16, A.R.S.).

Provisions

1.   Declares an association cannot prohibit or otherwise limit a dog or cat by breed, size or weight. (Sec. 1)

2.   Asserts any provisions prohibited by the restriction are unenforceable without regard to whether they were adopted or enacted before the effective date of this legislation. (Sec. 1)

3.   Authorizes an association to adopt reasonable rules regarding the number or behavior of dogs and casts that are consistent with federal, state and local laws. (Sec. 1)
