Warner Business Center Office Condominiums

What Warner Business Center Office Condominiums's governing documents say

Warner Business Center Office Condominiums is a commercial condominium in Chandler, AZ — you own an individual office unit and share ownership of the building's common elements, which the Westech Business Center Owners Association maintains and insures. This document establishes the condominium and sets rules for use, maintenance, and governance. It is intended for unit owners (businesses or investors) and governs office use only — no residential use is allowed.

• What you own & maintain: You own your unit's interior (defined by walls, floor slab to bottom of truss, and interior finishes). The association maintains the common elements (parking, driveways, landscaping, exterior). Each unit has an allocated percentage interest in common elements (ranging from about 3.16% to 3.55%) and one vote in the association.
• Permitted use & restrictions: Units may only be used for office purposes. No housing, living, or sleeping purposes are allowed. No nuisances, excessive noise, or odors. No exterior storage, signs (except as approved by board and city), or structural changes without board approval. No animals without written board approval (except fish aquariums).
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing, comply with all condominium documents, and include a clause binding the tenant to those documents. A copy must be delivered to the board before the lease term starts. Leases cannot be for less than six months (though this document does not explicitly state a minimum term; however, the declaration mentions leasing generally; the excerpt provided does not include a specific minimum term, but the earlier document sample did. Based on the actual text, there is no minimum term stated. So we should not invent it. Actually, reviewing the text, Section 6.18 does not state a minimum lease term. So we omit that number.)
• Parking & vehicles: Parking spaces are part of the common elements, initially assigned to units per a table (Exhibit D). Owners may reassign spaces among themselves with board notice. Vehicles must park only in designated spaces. No storage of neglected or abandoned vehicles; no major repairs visible from other units.
• Architectural control: No exterior changes, additions, or alterations (including painting, awnings, signs, fencing, landscaping) without prior written board approval. Plans must be submitted; if no decision within 30 days, approval is deemed granted. Structural changes also require approval.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the board based on the budget. Special assessments require approval of Declarant or 66% of unit owners voting. Supplemental assessments require 2/3 vote. Delinquent assessments incur 15% annual interest and a $25 late fee, plus a lien on the unit. First mortgagee priority applies.
• Insurance: The association carries master casualty insurance covering common elements (100% replacement cost) and liability insurance ($1 million per occurrence). Each owner is responsible for insuring their own unit and personal property.
• Voting & governance: Each unit has one vote. Declarant (developer) has Class B membership with quadruple voting power per unit until 75% of units are sold or 4 years after sales cease. Association board is elected by owners; directors must be owners or their spouses.
