The Sanctuary at Avondale Commercial Center

What The Sanctuary at Avondale Commercial Center's governing documents say

This is a declaration of covenants, conditions, restrictions, and easements for The Sanctuary at Avondale Commercial Center, a commercial property in Avondale, AZ. It governs owners and occupants of commercial lots and building areas, not residential homeowners. The document establishes shared common area rules, maintenance obligations, permitted uses, and architectural controls for the commercial center.

• Property type & who it binds: The document applies to commercial lots (including a Drugstore Parcel) and their owners, occupants, and users. It does not apply to residential homeowners, buyers, or renters.
• Permitted & restricted uses: The Drugstore Parcel is limited to uses like a pharmacy, health/beauty aids, greeting cards, and photo processing. Other lots (Pads A and B) may have drive-through uses. Prohibited uses include hazardous activities, outdoor storage without approval, and uses that unreasonably burden parking.
• Common area maintenance & costs: The Declarant (or Operator) maintains common areas (parking, landscaping, lighting, signs). Each owner pays a pro-rata share of common expenses based on building area. Extraordinary expenses over $5,000 require majority owner consent. Nonpayment becomes a lien on the lot.
• Parking & vehicles: Common area parking is for customer and user vehicles only; employee parking may be restricted. No parking or storage of trucks, delivery vehicles, or merchandise in common areas. The Drugstore Parcel has exclusive parking for its own users.
• Architectural review & construction: All improvements require Declarant approval for design, materials, and placement. Buildings cannot exceed 30 feet. Construction must be completed within 12 months. No walls or barriers may block pedestrian or vehicle access.
• Signage: A pylon sign program is allowed; costs are shared equally by owners represented on the sign. The Drugstore Parcel has its own approved sign plan and is exempt from the shared pylon sign requirements.
• Insurance requirements: Each owner must carry liability insurance ($2M per occurrence), property insurance at full replacement value, and workers' comp. The Operator also carries common area liability and property insurance. Owners waive subrogation rights against each other.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not address residential rules, age restrictions, leasing minimums, pet restrictions, or any terms relevant to homeowners or renters. It is a commercial property declaration.
