Introduction
15
This matter involves restrictions recorded against the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course
16
in Phoenix, Arizona. The original Deed Restriction (the Lakes Deed Restriction) was
17
recorded in 1986, subsequently amended in 1987 and 1988; and then further amended in 1992
18
by the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (the 1992 CC&Rs). The
19

Persons as defined in the 1992 CC&Rs. Owner Counterclaimants are the fee owners of the
21
22
23
Counterdefendants have brought this action against Counterclaimants to enforce the 1992
24
25
relief regarding the interpretation of the 1992 CC&Rs. This Motion seeks the dismissal of
26
the Counterclaim because the facts needed to resolve this Motion are undisputed and the
27
Counterclaimants are not entitled as a matter of law to the declaratory relief sought in the
28
Counterclaim.

executive golf course known as Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course, caused to be recorded in a
deed restriction (the Lakes Deed Restriction) covering the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course,

21
a) the [Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course] need not be run as a golf course or
any commercial enterprise but is permitted to revert to its natural state;
22
23
24
25
26
27
28
While the declaratory relief sought in Counterclaim 26(a) raises a justiciable controversy,
have no definite interest in the issues they raise in the declaratory relief requests (which are
not actual disputes for which declaratory relief is available) sought in Counterclaim 26(b)
2.
A.R.S. 12-1831, et seq. Declaratory relief is a statutory remedy where courts of record
have power to declare rights, status, and other legal relations whether or not further relief is
10
or could be claimed. A.R.S. 12-1831; Canyon del Rio Investors, L.L.C. v. City of Flagstaff,
11
227 Ariz. 336, 341, 258 P.3d 154, 159 (App. 2011). Arizonas statutory scheme states its
12
purpose is to settle and afford relief from uncertainty and insecurity with respect to rights,
13
14
15
16
Ariz. App. 122, 126, 541 P.2d 585, 589 (1975). For a justiciable controversy under
17
Arizona's declaratory judgment statutes there must be (i) an actual controversy, (ii) a plaintiff
18
with a real stake in the outcome and (iii) a defendant with a position adverse to the plaintiffs
19
and the ability to adversely affect the plaintiff. Arizona Civil Remedies (Third Ed. 2011), Vol.
20
One, Declaratory Judgments, pg. 5.14. See also Board of Supervisors of Maricopa County v.
21
Woodall, 120 Ariz. 379, 380, 586 P.2d 628, 629 (Ariz., 1978) Lake Havasu Resort, Inc. v.
22
Commercial Loan Ins. Corp., 139 Ariz. 369, 377, 678 P.2d 950, 958 (App. 1983); and Morton
23
v. Pacific Const. Co., 36 Ariz. 97, 102, 283 P. 281, 282 (1929) (the question must be real,
24
and not theoretical). Essentially, the dispute giving rise to a declaratory judgment action
25
must be an actual, existing dispute based on an existing state of facts rather than a factual
26
scenario which may or may not arise in the future. Moore v. Bolin, 70 Ariz. 354, 357, 220
27
P.2d 850, 852 (1950); American Federation of State, County and Muni. Employees, AFL-

A.
Covenants, conditions and restrictions such as the 1992 CC&Rs constitute a covenant
running with the land forming a contract between the owners of the common areas and the
individual lot owners. Divizio v. Kewin Enterprises, Inc., 136 Ariz. 476, 481, 666 P.2d 1085,
1090 (App. 1983); Ahwatukee Custom Estates Management Assoc. v. Turner, 196 Ariz. 631,
634, 2 P.3d 1276, 1279 (App. 2000) (CC&Rs constitute a contract between subdivisions
10
property owners as a whole and individual lot owners); and A.R.S. 33-416. 1 The 1992
11
CC&Rs state that they run with the land and shall be binding upon all present and future
12
owners. SOF, 12. Moreover, the Special Warranty Deed transferring the Ahwatukee Golf
13
Course to Counterclaimant specifically stated title was warranted subject to any and all
14
restrictive covenants, conditions and restrictions, easements, encumbrances, liens and other
15
matters of record. SOF, 17. Thus, by accepting a deed to the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf
16
Course, Counterclaimant became bound by the restrictions recorded against the Ahwatukee
17
Lakes Golf Course as effectively as if they had each executed the instrument. Murphey v.
18
Gray, 84 Ariz. 299, 305, 327 P.2d 751, 755 (1950); Pinetop Lakes Ass'n v. Hatch 135 Ariz.
19
20
The terms of the 1992 CC&Rs are interpreted to give effect to the intention
of the parties ascertained from its language
21
question of law, not a question of fact. Powell v. Washburn, 211 Ariz. 553, 555, 125 P.3d
24
373, 375 (2006); Arizona Biltmore Estates Association v. Tezak, 177 Ariz. 1030, 1031, 868
25

28
SOF, 21-24.
P.2d 1030, 448 (App. 1994). In Arizona, restrictive covenants are construed according to the
intention of the parties to the instrument. Powell v. Washburn, at Ariz. 556, at P.3d 376. The
intent of the parties and the object of the deed or restriction should govern, giving the
instrument a just and fair interpretation. Id. The Arizona Supreme Court expanded on what
6
7
8
9
10
11
Arizona's rule that courts should enforce the intent of the parties to a restrictive
covenant in the absence of ambiguity reaches back to the 1930s. In Ainsworth
v. Elder, this Court adopted an intent-based analysis (without calling it such)
when it stated that courts should consider not only the strict and technical
meaning of the particular words of restriction, but also the surrounding
circumstances, the general purpose of the restrictions, and the manner in which
they have been interpreted by the property owners.
Id. (Emphasis supplied).
12
The Arizona Supreme Court stated in Powell v. Washburn that it accepted review of
13
the Arizona Court of Appeals decision because of the widespread use of restrictive covenants
14
in planned communities and the accompanying need for a clear statement of how to interpret
15
such covenant. Id. at Ariz. 555, at P.3d 375. The Supreme Court observed the traditional
16
rule in Arizona has been that when a restrictive covenant is unambiguous, it is enforced so as
17
to give effect to the intent of the parties. Id. at Ariz. 556, at P.3d 376. However, the Supreme
18
Court noted that some Arizona courts have also posited a countervailing principle of
19
20
ambiguous or does not specifically prohibit a particular use of the property, and a number of
21
opinions state that a court must strictly construe the terms of the restrictive covenant in favor
22
23
The Supreme Court noted the function of the law is to ascertain and give effect to the
24
likely intentions and legitimate expectations of the parties who create servitudes, as it does
25
with respect to other contractual arrangements. Id. at Ariz. 556, at P.3d 376. To support its
26
conclusion, the Court cites to the Restatement (Third) of Property (Servitudes), Introductory
27
Note to ch. 4, at 494 (2000). The Restatement recommends the following for interpretation
28
of restrictive covenants:
[a] servitude should be interpreted to give effect to the intention of the parties
ascertained from the language used in the instrument, or the circumstances
surrounding creation of the servitude, and to carry out the purpose for which it
was created.

Id. at Ariz. 557, at P.3d 377. The Supreme Court noted the Restatement recommendation for
interpreting restrictive covenants is consistent with its holding for interpretation of contracts
in Taylor v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 175 Ariz. 148, 153, 854 P.2d 1134, 1139 (1993)
(When interpreting a contract ... it is fundamental that a court attempt to ascertain and give
effect to the intention of the parties at the time the contract was made if at all possible.). Id.
at Ariz. 556, at P.3d 376
Based on the similarity to how Arizona interprets contracts, the Arizona Supreme
9
10
11
12
13
Court adopted the Restatement rule that a servitude should be interpreted to give effect to the
intention of the parties ascertained from the language used in the instrument, or the
circumstances surrounding creation of the servitude, and to carry out the purpose for which it
was created. Id. at Ariz. 557, at P.3d 377.
C.
15
The intent of the parties in adopting the 1992 CC&Rs was to meet the
requirements of Arizonas golf course valuation and taxation statutory
scheme
16
Because the 1992 CC&Rs state those restrictive covenants amend and restate the
17
Lakes Deed Restriction the parties intention must begin with the Lakes Deed Restriction
18
enacted in 1986. That original deed restriction stated this deed restriction [is made] pursuant
19
to A.R.S. 42-125.01, restricting the use of said property to use as a golf course, facilities
20
and improvements related thereto, for ten (10) years. 3 The Lakes Deed Restriction stated
21
that it constitutes a covenant between the county assessor and the owner of the subject real
22
property; and specifically stated it was not for the benefit of the surrounding properties or
23
14
24
The Lakes Deed Restriction was amended by the 1987 Amended Lakes Deed
25
Restriction extending the deed restriction an additional one year; and amended a second time
26
27
28
This statute was part of Arizonas statutory scheme for the valuation and taxation of golf
courses. A.R.S. 42-125.01 was later renumbered by the Legislature to be A.R.S. 42-146. In
1997, A.R.S. 42-146 was repealed and its substance was moved to A.R.S. 42-13151, et seq.
as Arizonas valuation and taxation of golf courses.
3
by the 1988 Amended Lakes Deed Restriction extending the deed restriction an additional
five years. Then, in 1992, the Lakes Deed Restriction was amended a third time by the 1992
CC&Rs. That amendment specifically stated, By recording this Declaration, the Declarant
intends to comply with the requirements and obtain the benefits of Arizona Revised Statutes
Section 42-146[4] regarding the valuation and taxation of golf courses. Furthermore, the
1992 CC&Rs declared they were for the mutual benefit of Declarant (Chicago Trust), the
Developer (The Presley Companies) and all present and future owners or users of such
portions of the Property as remain subject to this Declaration; . . . and any other owner of
10
From the creation of the Lakes Deed Restriction, the Declarant required the
11
Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course be used only as a golf course pursuant to A.R.S. 42-125.01.
12
That statute (and A.R.S. 42-146 referenced in the 1986 and 1992 deed restrictions) is part
13
of Arizonas valuation and taxation of golf course statutes. The Declarant originally stated
14
the Lakes Deed Restriction constitutes a covenant between the county assessor and the owner
15
of subject real property. This provision alone underscores that Arizonas golf course
16
valuation and taxation statutory scheme was the core basis for the Lakes Deed Restriction.
17
Plainly, the intent of the Declarant as the party who created the Lakes Deed Restriction and
18
the object of that deed restriction was that the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course meet the
19
requirements of Arizonas valuation and taxation of golf course statutes. Each amendment to
20
the Lakes Deed Restriction from 1986 through 1992 definitely state the original intent and
21
24
25
[I]n recognition of the importance of [their] open space and economic benefits,
26
Arizona affords golf courses special valuation and tax treatment. A.R.S. 42-13152. In order

the owner of a golf course shall record a deed restriction with the county
recorder and file a copy of the restriction with the county assessor, restricting
the property to use as a golf course for at least ten years. The deed restriction
must be refiled as necessary to ensure that the deed restriction always applies
for at least ten years.
A.R.S. 42-13154. The definition of a golf course is set out in A.R.S. 42-13151:
golf course means substantially undeveloped land, including amenities such
as landscaping, irrigation systems, paths and golf greens and tees, that may be
used for golfing or golfing practice by the public or by members and guests of
a private club
If a golf course meets the statutory definition of A.R.S. 42-13151, the discounted valuation
9
is based on a statutory per acre valuation amount (A.R.S. 42-13151(C)) and a formula to
10
11
determine and annually adjust the improvement value of the golf course. A.R.S. 4213151(D). The latter value is based, in part, on the number of actual rounds of golf played
12
during the most recent twelve months ending on July 31. Id.
13
Arizonas golf course valuation and taxation statutes was considered in PhxAz LP v.
14
Maricopa County, 192 Ariz. 490, 967 P.2d 1026 (App. 1998). In that decision, the Arizona
15
Court of Appeals interpreted the meaning of golf course as used in A.R.S. 42-146 in
16
determining whether the special valuation method under that statute applied in establishing
17
the tax rate on two particular golf courses. In the PhxAz LP case, developers obtained zoning
18
for golf courses in two planned areas and requested the Maricopa County Assessor value each
19
golf course as a golf course as that phrase is defined in A.R.S. 42-146(G) for purposes of
20
determining the tax rate. The Maricopa County Assessor found because the golf courses were
21
still under construction they did not meet the A.R.S. 42-146(G) definition of golf course
22
and were not entitled to the special valuation method. After the State Board of Equalization
23
agreed with Maricopa County Assessor, the developer tax payers appealed to the Maricopa
24
County Superior Court Tax Court, who ruled in favor of the developer tax payers. The county
25
In overturning the trial courts ruling the Arizona Court of Appeals focused on the
definition of golf course in A.R.S. 42-146(G). That statute provided:
As used in this section, golf course means substantially undeveloped land,
including amenities such as landscaping, irrigation systems, paths and golf
11
greens and tees, which may be used for golfing and golfing practice by the
public or by members and guests of a private club but not including commercial
golf practice ranges operated exclusive of golf courses valued under this section,
clubhouses, pro shops, restaurants or similar buildings as associated with the
golf course which are generally used by the public or by members and guests
entitled to use the golf course.5

Id. at Ariz. 494, at P.2d 1030. Judge Ryan stated, [t]he essence of a golf course under
subsection G is that it be substantially undeveloped land . . . [that] may be used for golfing
or golfing practice by the public or members and guests of a private club. The Court of
Appeals concluded if the golf courses could not be used for golfing or golfing practice by
the public or by members and guests of a private club, the golf courses did not qualify as
10
11
In evaluating the statutory definition of a golf course, Judge Ryan indicated he found
12
it difficult to conceive that the legislature would have made the applicability of a special
13
valuation method with such significant consequences as provided in A.R.S. 42-146(A) turn
14
15
for golfing or golfing practice at an unspecified point in the future. Id. Judge Ryan
16
succinctly concluded, Thus, the tax benefit is appropriately only applied to an operational
17
18
E.
20
Because the Declarant intended the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course would
comply with Arizonas golf course valuation and taxation statutes, the
1992 CC&Rs require it be operated as a golf course so that it can be
presently used for golfing and golfing practice
21
Because (i) the 1992 CC&Rs are to be interpreted to give effect to the intention and
22
object of the party who drafted those restrictive covenants, (ii) the party who drafted the Lakes
23
Deed Restriction and each amendment, including the 1992 CC&Rs, intended the Ahwatukee
24
Lakes Golf Course was to be (in perpetuity) in compliance with the Arizonas golf course
25
valuation and taxation statutory scheme, (iii) compliance with the Arizonas golf course
26
valuation and taxation statutory scheme requires that a golf course is an operational golf
19
27
28
While the format of the definition of golf course in A.R.S. 42-13151 is slightly different,
the substance of the two definitions are identical.

12
course, (iv) the availability of the special treatment under the Arizonas golf course valuation
and taxation statutory scheme requires golf be played on the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course
during the preceding twelve months and (vi) the interpretation of restrictive covenants is a
legal (not factual) issue,, Counterclaimants requested declaratory relief that the [Ahwatukee
Lakes Golf Course] need not be run as a golf course or any commercial enterprise but is
permitted to revert to its natural state is not consistent with the intent and object of the
Declarant in drafting the 1992 CC&Rs. As such, the declaratory relief sought in Counterclaim

The declaratory relief sought in Counterclaim 26(b) does not raise justiciable
controversies for which declaratory relief can be granted
A party is not entitled to declaratory relief without first establishing there is a
justiciable controversy for the court to declare the rights, status and legal relations of the
parties to the dispute. Therefore, the dispute must be an existing dispute, not a theoretical
dispute. In the case of the declaratory relief sought in Counterclaim 26(b), there are no
actual disputes for the Court to resolve. Rather, Counterclaimants identify rights belonging
exclusively to third parties (i.e. either the Declarant, the Developer or 51% of the Benefitted
Persons), but which rights those third parties have not sought to exercise. Consequently,
Counterclaimants are not entitled to the declaratory relief sought Counterclaim 26(b).
The Counterclaim ( 17 and 24) refers to 6 and 10(b) in the 1992 Conditions,
Covenants and Restrictions which allow those restrictive covenants to be amended one of two
different ways. Under 6, the 1992 Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions provides:
The covenants, conditions, restrictions and easements set forth herein shall be
appurtenant to and run with the land and shall be binding upon all present and
future owners, occupants and users of the Property or any portion thereof and
all persons claiming an interest in and to the Property in perpetuity; provided,
however, that if Declarant or Developer (including their successors or assigns)
determines that there has been a material change in conditions or circumstances
affecting the Property or the covenants, conditions, restrictions and easements
set forth herein, Declarant or Developer may petition the Maricopa county
Superior Court or any other court or adjudicative body of competent jurisdiction
for modification of this Declaration.
(Emphasis added).
13
Based on the above provision, the 1992 Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions may
be changed by both the Declarant and the Developer based on material change in conditions
or circumstances. The Declarant is Chicago Title Agency of Arizona, Inc. SOF, 1. The
Developer is The Presley Companies. Id. Counterclaimants are neither a Declarant nor the
change in the 1992 Declaration. SOF, 24. Without a pending action requesting such
changes (which can only be brought by entities other than Defendants), Defendants
nonetheless request declaratory relief which meets none of the three requirements for
declaratory relief.
10
11
there is no lawsuit pending. Second, because Counterclaimants are neither the Declarant nor
12
the Developer, Counterclaimants have no stake in the outcome for which they seek
13
declaratory relief based on 6, the 1992 Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions. In addition,
14
15
words, because the relief described in 6, the 1992 Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions
16
is available to only the Declarant and Developer, the declaratory relief requested in 26(b)(1)

19
22
23
Despite, first, their lack of position to approve any proposed amendment to the 1992
24
Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions and despite, second, the complete lack of any
25
evidence that the Declarant, the Developer and not less than 51% of the other Benefitted
26
Persons have voted to amend the restrictive covenants, Defendants nonetheless request the
27
Court to declare that the 1992 Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions may be modified by
28
10(b) of the restrictive covenants. Declaratory relief is based on an existing state of facts
20
21
14
Restriction may occur pursuant to 10(b) without the Declarant and Developer having first
approved an amendment to the restrictive covenants, which has been approved by a vote of
