Hi Michael. Thank you for expressing your concerns about the GM Report and our community’s CC&R situation. It’s vital to ensure our residents’ voices are heard and their concerns addressed.
The impending vote on parking regulations is a pivotal decision, as it directly influences our community’s character and control over neighborhood roads. The loss of control could lead to a more lenient environment for recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, and commercial vehicles, potentially altering our community’s aesthetics and functionality. In passing the law, the state Legislature is requiring the community to reaffirm their desire to give us local control over enforcement. If the vote fails (or if we do not conduct a vote by 2025), then we lose our ability to enforce. Residents would then have to call the county to handle street parking violations; how many resources the county would have to dedicate to all this new enforcement from SCW and other planned communities is another question.
To clarify, this vote solely pertains to street parking and won’t impact private properties, including driveways. Regarding your apprehensions about reporting violations: first, our governing documents require a reactive approach. We depend on our community members to report concerns, and we are quick to follow up on them. Understand that the non-anonymity aspect is mandated by Arizona State law (ARS ยง 33-1803.c), affecting all planned communities, including ours. If a homeowner follows the procedure to request the name of the complainant, we are required by law to divulge it.
We kindly request you to submit any concerns, such as front yard parking, to our CC&R department, facilitating prompt resolution. Your involvement is deeply appreciated, and we encourage you to engage in forthcoming discussions. Your insights are invaluable, and together, we’ll further enrich our community.
