Henderson municipal code
Henderson restricts short-term rentals under zoning laws. NRS Chapter 116 governs HOA rules; ensure municipal STR licenses comply with covenants.
HOA governing documents
HOAs enforce recorded use restrictions (minimum lease terms, guest limits, parking) when consistent with applicable city licensure and state law. Covenant enforcement requires notice, cure periods, and uniform application.
Zoning & building code
Municipal codes in Henderson establish fence heights and sight triangles. HOA guidelines regulate style and colors through architectural controls.
Permit thresholds
Permits for structural additions are issued by Henderson building officials. HOA architectural review must be completed separately.
HOA architectural control
HOAs review fences and additions through architectural committees under CC&Rs. Municipal compliance alone does not satisfy HOA design or notice requirements.
State / local protections
NRS 116.31187 prohibits HOAs from banning solar energy systems or drought-tolerant landscaping (xeriscaping) in Nevada. Reasonable location rules apply.
What HOAs may still regulate
HOAs may adopt reasonable design rules that meet statutory tests (location, color, timeline). Associations cannot impose outright bans where state law voids them.
