Title 33, chapter 16, article 1, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended by adding section 33-1816.01, to reasonable restrictions; municipal zoning; definition A. Notwithstanding any provision in the community documents, an association may not prohibit the backyard installation or use of a shade structure. B.
