What Farmer Arts District's governing documents say
This is a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Farmer Arts District, a planned community in Tempe, AZ. It establishes the Farmer Property Owners Association and sets rules for lot owners, including assessments, maintenance responsibilities, and use of common areas. The document binds all current and future owners of lots within the project.
- Association & Membership: Owners automatically become members. Each lot has one membership per 10,000 square feet of land (rounded down). The Declarant holds as many memberships as all other owners combined during the control period. Class A owners get one vote per membership; Class B (Declarant) gets three votes per membership.
- Assessments & fees: Regular assessments are levied per membership. Improved lots pay a uniform amount per membership; unimproved lots pay 50% of that. Special assessments require 67% member approval after control period. A transfer fee, set by the Board, is due from each purchaser. Late fees and 10% annual interest apply to delinquent assessments.
- Maintenance Responsibilities: The Association maintains all 'Areas of Association Responsibility,' including common areas, certain sidewalks and landscaping. Each owner maintains their lot, buildings, and landscaping, keeping everything in good condition per the Maintenance Standard. Boundary walls between lots are shared equally in cost and use.
- Insurance: The Association must carry comprehensive general liability insurance (at least $1,000,000) and property insurance covering all Areas of Association Responsibility at replacement cost. Policies must include no-subrogation and severability-of-interest clauses.
- Enforcement: The Association can enforce rules via monetary fines (after notice and hearing), suspension of voting rights or common area use (except ingress/egress), self-help, towing of improperly parked vehicles, and foreclosure of assessment liens. Liens have priority over first mortgages and taxes.
- Easements & Development Rights: Owners and lessees have easements to use common areas. The Declarant reserves broad development rights, including annexing additional property, withdrawing property, and modifying the development plan without owner consent. Utility and pedestrian easements are also granted.
