Santa Barbara Professional Park

What Santa Barbara Professional Park's governing documents say

Santa Barbara Professional Park Phase II is a commercial professional park community in Mesa, AZ. The Declaration creates the Santa Barbara Property Owners' Association, which manages common areas (Tract A) and levies assessments on the owners of Lots A–F. This document binds all Lot owners and their lessees, guests, and invitees. It covers the association's powers, assessment rules, maintenance obligations, insurance requirements, and enforcement procedures.

• Assessments (regular & special): Regular assessments are based on each Lot's square footage as shown on the plat, set by the Board annually. Special assessments may be levied for construction, repairs, or unbudgeted expenses, also by square footage. Assessments are due monthly (or as the Board decides) and are secured by a lien on the Lot. Late payments incur interest and late fees. The Board may adjust assessments mid-period if funds become inadequate.
• Maintenance responsibilities: The Association maintains the Common Area (Tract A) and all ingress/egress easements, landscaping, and irrigation. Lot owners are responsible for their own Lots, but the Association has access to Lots (excluding building interiors) for maintenance. If maintenance of association areas is needed due to an owner's or guest's negligence, the cost is charged to that owner.
• Insurance requirements: The Association must carry comprehensive general liability insurance (minimum $1,000,000), property insurance on association areas at full replacement cost, workers' compensation as required by law, and any other insurance the Board deems appropriate. Premiums are paid from assessments. Insurance proceeds for damage to common areas are paid to the Association and used for repair or replacement.
• Voting & membership: Each Lot is entitled to one vote. All Lot owners are mandatory members of the Association. Voting rights can be suspended if assessments are unpaid for 15+ days after due or if project documents are violated and not cured within 15 days of notice. Transfers of membership automatically follow Lot ownership. Common Area cannot be conveyed without all Owners' consent.
• Enforcement & liens: The Association may enforce the declaration through any legal remedy, including suing the owner personally or foreclosing the assessment lien. The lien has priority over all other liens except tax liens, government assessments, and first mortgages. Before recording a lien, the Association must demand payment; if unpaid within 10 days, a lien may be recorded. Late fees and attorneys' fees are included.
• Amendments & termination: The Declaration may be amended by a vote of Owners holding at least 75% of the Lots. Termination requires 90% approval. If Common Area is damaged or destroyed, repair is required unless 80% of Owners vote not to rebuild. Condemnation proceeds are used for replacement unless 80% vote otherwise.
