*The Association has an automatic lien on a property from the time the assessment becomes due. ARS§33-1256. Each Assessment is the personal obligation of the person or entity who owns the property at the time the Assessment falls due. No owner may escape liability by nonuse of the ARC facilities or abandonment of the property. Per: ARC CC&Rs Article 4. A claim of not receiving an invoice is not sufficient reason to have the charges waived. Please refer to the ARC CC&Rs and Bylaws for homeowner contractual obligations.

Please communicate with the ARC Business Office if experiencing financial hardship to discuss payment options prior to due dates.
