Plaza Town Center

What Plaza Town Center's governing documents say

Plaza Town Center is a mixed-use commercial and office condominium development in Sun City, AZ. It contains three commercial pads (lots 1-3) and an office condominium parcel (lot 4) with multiple office units. This declaration establishes reciprocal access and parking easements, a homeowners association (Plaza Town Center Owners Association, Inc.) to maintain common areas, and imposes assessments, design controls, and use restrictions on all parcels. The document applies to owners of commercial pads and condominium units, as well as the condominium association.

• Plan of development and easements: The development consists of a commercial parcel (three pads) and an office condominium parcel. Reciprocal access easements allow vehicular and pedestrian ingress/egress across all roadways and walkways. Parking easements grant parking rights on uncovered spaces across both parcels. Stormwater drainage and utility easements also exist.
• Maintenance obligations: The Manager (initially the Declarant, then the Association) maintains all common areas, including driveways, parking, landscaping, signs, and drainage. Each owner is responsible for maintaining their own building and improvements, controlling weeds and debris on unimproved parcels, and keeping property in first-class condition consistent with nearby commercial/office developments.
• Assessments and liens: Regular and special assessments are levied against each commercial pad and the condominium association based on allocated percentages (blank in document, to be filled). Assessments fund common expenses, reserves, and insurance. Late payments incur 15% annual interest and a late fee of the greater of $25 or 10% of unpaid amount. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the property, subordinate only to property taxes, prior recorded liens, and first mortgages/deeds of trust.
• Design controls and approval: All construction or exterior modifications require prior written approval from the Manager. The Manager may adopt architectural guidelines and approve based on aesthetic harmony. Applications must include plans; approval is deemed granted if not acted on within 30 days. Interior remodeling of condominium units does not require approval if it does not affect exterior appearance. Repainting in originally approved colors or rebuilding substantially as approved is exempt.
• Use restrictions (Exhibit E): No parcel may be used for 32 listed prohibited uses, including adult businesses, automotive body shops, flea markets, pawn shops, churches, schools, theaters, tattoo parlors, outdoor animal housing, and any use creating offensive odors, excessive noise, or hazardous conditions. All uses must comply with applicable laws and the more restrictive of this declaration or the Plaza Del Rio declaration.
• Insurance requirements: The Manager must carry general liability insurance ($1M per occurrence, $2M aggregate) and property insurance on common areas. Commercial pad owners must insure their buildings (at least 80% replacement value) and carry $2M general liability insurance, naming the Manager as additional insured. The condominium association must maintain property insurance on common elements and name the Manager as additional insured.
• Enforcement and amendment: The Manager and any owner can enforce the declaration. The prevailing party in any lawsuit is entitled to attorney fees. Amendments require a recorded instrument signed by the Manager and owners of 50% or more of the total square footage of commercial pads, plus the condominium association. The declaration runs with the land in perpetuity unless terminated by all affected parties.
• Relationship to Plaza Del Rio: The development is part of the larger Plaza Del Rio project and is subject to that master declaration. Owners must pay assessments to the Plaza Del Rio Association in addition to assessments under this declaration. In case of conflict, the more restrictive provision controls.
