Summary of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs)

This summary provides a general overview of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) for the Chase Run community, located in Riverside, California. It is intended to inform current and potential homeowners about the governance, rules, and responsibilities within the community.   

Association Governance & Membership

• The community is governed by the Chase Run Homeowners Association, a California nonprofit mutual benefit corporation.   

• All Lot owners are automatically Members of the Association.   

• The Association is managed by a Board of Directors.   

• The Governing Documents include this Declaration (CC&Rs), the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Association Rules.   

Assessments & Common Areas

• Owners are obligated to pay assessments (Regular, Special, Emergency, Special Individual) as levied by the Association. These funds cover common expenses, including the maintenance of Common Areas and facilities.   

• Assessments are due as specified by the Board (e.g., quarterly installments for Regular Assessments).   

• Unpaid assessments can become a lien against the Owner's Lot and may incur late charges, interest, and collection costs.   

• The Association owns and maintains the Common Areas (e.g., specific designated lots, private alley, drainage facilities) for the use of the Members.   

Owner Responsibilities

• Owners must maintain their individual Lots and Residences in good condition and according to the standards set forth in the Governing Documents and any provided Maintenance Manuals.   

• Owners must comply with all provisions of the CC&Rs and other Governing Documents.   

• Owners are responsible for obtaining insurance for their own Residences.   

Architectural Control

• An Architectural Review Committee oversees modifications to properties.   

• Owners must obtain prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee before making any alterations, additions, or significant changes to the exterior of their homes or landscaping (including structures, fences, paint colors, solar panels, satellite dishes, etc.). This ensures changes are harmonious with the community design and comply with guidelines.   

Use Restrictions & Community Rules

• Lots are restricted to Single Family Residential Use.   

• Business activities are generally restricted, although home offices may be permitted under specific conditions that do not impact the residential character of the community.

Rental Policy

• Owners have the right to lease their Residences.   

• All leases must be for the entire Residence and must be in writing.   

• The minimum lease term permitted is one hundred and eighty (180) days. Rentals for periods shorter than 180 days (short-term rentals; e.g. Airbnb) are not permitted.   

• Lease agreements must state that the tenancy is subject to the Association's Governing Documents.   

• Tenants are required to comply with all Association rules and regulations. Owners remain responsible for ensuring tenant compliance.
