Agave Center

What Agave Center's governing documents say

Agave Center is a commercial and industrial park in Tempe, AZ — the rules in this Declaration bind the owners of the commercial/industrial lots (not homeowners). The association maintains common landscaping and signs, and all site improvements must be approved under a detailed architectural review process. Uses are limited to permitted commercial/industrial activities, with specific prohibitions (e.g., no junk yards, no animal slaughter).

• Permitted uses: All sites are limited to commercial and industrial uses consistent with the City's zoning. Prohibited uses include junk yards, salvage yards, animal slaughter, fat rendering, smelting, garbage incineration, and circuses/carnivals.
• Architectural & site approval: No improvements may be built or altered without prior approval from the Approving Agent (the Association's board or a design committee). A Concept Plan must be submitted first ($100 review fee), followed by Detailed Plans ($1,000 review fee, adjustable by CPI). Construction must start within one year of approval and be completed within one year.
• Design guidelines & sign plan: The property is subject to Design Guidelines and a Sign Plan adopted by the Declarants. The Association may modify them (by 2/3 board vote), but changes cannot retroactively affect already-approved improvements.
• Landscaped easement area: The Association maintains the Landscaped Easement Area (shown on the Plat), including landscaping, irrigation, and perimeter walls. No structures or improvements may be built there without approval, except driveways and curb cuts with approval.
• Assessments & voting: Each Owner must pay annual and special assessments levied by the Association, based on the Site Area. Owners vote according to Site Area; Declarants have Class B votes (1.5x Site Area) that convert to Class A once they no longer own land.
• Maintenance & parking: Owners must maintain their sites (buildings, landscaping, parking areas) in good order. Parking must be sufficient for the business use; no parking on streets or other owners' sites. Refuse must be screened, and sites must be kept free of weeds and debris.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not address residential occupancy rules, pet policies, leasing terms for tenants, or any amenities like pools or fitness centers — it is a commercial/industrial park declaration.
