Copper Springs Retirement Community

What Copper Springs Retirement Community's governing documents say

Copper Springs Retirement Community is actually a commercial and mixed-use development in Gilbert, AZ, governed by a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions & Easements. This document applies to owners of commercial parcels (not residents of a retirement community) and covers property development, maintenance, assessments, and use restrictions. The community is managed by a Manager (initially AZ Baseside L.L.C.) and is designed for first-class retail, office, and commercial uses.

• Development control & architectural review: All construction or exterior alterations require prior written approval from the Manager. Plans must be submitted and deemed approved within 30 days if no objection. Building heights are limited by zoning and envelopes shown on the site plan.
• Common areas & easements: Common areas include access drives, parking, landscaping, and utility areas. Owners have easements for ingress/egress, parking (subject to employee parking restrictions), utilities, and stormwater runoff. No permanent obstructions are allowed without Manager consent.
• Maintenance obligations: Each owner must maintain their parcel, buildings, and common areas in a neat and orderly condition. The Manager maintains monument signs, perimeter landscaping, and access drive lighting. Owners must keep lighting illuminated during designated evening hours.
• Assessments & liens: The Manager levies assessments on all Owners to cover common expenses, allocated by land area. Assessments are due within 30 days of notice; delinquencies incur 12% interest and can result in a lien on the parcel and personal liability for the owner.
• Use restrictions: Parcels may only be used for lawful purposes consistent with first-class commercial development. Prohibited uses are listed on Exhibit E (not included here). No commercial sales or displays in common areas without Manager consent. Drive-through facilities and vending machines require approval.
• Signage: Owners may install building signs and monument sign panels with Manager approval. Signs must conform to local codes and be professionally prepared. No roof signs are allowed. The Manager maintains multi-tenant monument signs; owners pay pro-rata share of costs.
• Insurance & indemnification: Owners must carry property and liability insurance (minimum $2M combined single limit). The Manager may maintain an umbrella policy. Owners waive subrogation rights against each other and the Manager for insured losses.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not contain any residential use restrictions, age restrictions (despite the community name), or tenant/renter rules. It is purely for commercial property owners and developers.
