What Bell 1900 Development's governing documents say
Bell 1900 Development is a commercial/industrial subdivision in Phoenix, AZ (recorded 1986). Lots 1-4 are restricted to new and used automobile sales and service; other lots may develop per Phoenix zoning. An owners association, design review committee, and development standards govern the property. This document binds all lot owners and is not for residential use.
- Permitted uses: Lots 1-4 are restricted to automobile sales and service. Other lots may be used only as permitted by Phoenix Zoning Ordinance §§ 416, 417, 418, 425-2e, with no nuisance allowed. Declarant may further limit or expand uses.
- Association & assessments: A property owners association is established; every lot owner is a member. Quarterly assessments and special assessments for capital improvements are levied by the Board, calculated pro rata by lot square footage. Delinquent assessments bear interest and become a lien on the lot, subordinate to first mortgages.
- Design review: A Development Committee (initially 4 members) must approve all exterior improvements, including plans, elevations, materials, colors, signs, and landscaping before construction. Approval is based on design harmony, impact on neighboring lots, and compliance with the declaration. If not acted on in 30 days, plans are deemed approved (unless extended 10 days). Fees apply.
- Development standards: Buildings must be of approved materials; no trailer-type mobile units except during construction. Exterior storage, loading docks, roof equipment, and refuse areas must be screened from streets and adjacent properties. All lighting shielded from residences. Parking areas must be paved and sufficient for employees, customers, and visitors; street parking prohibited. On-site utility lines underground. Landscaping required in front yards with underground sprinklers.
- Signs: Signs must comply with Phoenix Sign Ordinance and be approved by the Development Committee before installation. Variances possible but do not set precedent.
- Enforcement: Association or Board may enter and correct violations, assess costs as additional assessments, and pursue legal remedies including lien, injunction, possession, or damages. Failure to enforce does not waive future enforcement.
- Maintenance & liens: Owner must maintain exteriors, walks, driveways, lawns, and landscaping in good condition. Association may perform exterior maintenance if owner fails after notice, adding cost to assessment. Assessment liens are subordinate to prior recorded first mortgages.
