The Offices at Desert Fairways

What The Offices at Desert Fairways's governing documents say

The Offices at Desert Fairways is a commercial office condominium in Phoenix, AZ. Units are individually owned and are part of a building with common elements maintained by the association. This declaration governs use, maintenance, and governance, and applies to unit owners, tenants, and occupants. The community is designed for professional offices, not residential living.

• Permitted use: Units may only be used as offices for professional services (e.g., medical, dental, law, architecture, accounting, real estate). Other uses require approval of all unit owners and compliance with zoning.
• Pets & animals: No animals, birds, reptiles, or livestock are permitted in units or on the property. Fish in aquariums are allowed if they do not create a nuisance.
• Rentals: Leases must be in writing and include a provision that the lease is subject to the declaration and rules. Unit owners must provide the association with lease start/end dates, tenant names, owner contact info, and emergency contact at least 10 days before the lease begins. Owners are liable for tenant violations.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles may only be parked in designated parking spaces (some are limited common elements allocated to specific units). No repair, servicing, or storage of inoperable vehicles is allowed. Trailers, boats, RVs, and campers are prohibited. The association can tow vehicles in violation.
• Signs: No signs (including 'For Sale' or 'For Rent') are permitted on the exterior of buildings or visible from the exterior without board approval. The board may allow identification signs subject to location, size, and style requirements, and must comply with city ordinances.
• Maintenance responsibilities: The association maintains, repairs, and replaces all common elements (including perimeter building walls). Unit owners maintain their units (excluding perimeter walls) and any limited common elements serving their unit (e.g., HVAC, plumbing fixtures). Costs for maintenance caused by owner misconduct are assessed to that owner.
• Assessments & fees: Common expense assessments are based on each unit's percentage of undivided interest (calculated by adjusted square footage). The board adopts an annual budget and may increase assessments mid-year. Special assessments (over $0?) require approval of unit owners holding two-thirds of votes. Late payments accrue interest and fees, and are secured by a lien.
• Alterations & improvements: Nonstructural alterations within a unit do not require prior board approval, but the owner is responsible for any damage. Structural changes, or any alteration visible from the exterior, require written board approval and certification from a licensed architect or engineer that the work will not impair structural integrity or mechanical systems.
