6. MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT
What It Is: A mixed-use development integrates residential and commercial or
retail uses in a single, coordinated environment.
Types of Properties:
• Single-family homes
• Townhouses
• Condos
• Apartments
How It Operates: Many mixed-use communities have sub-associations—one
residential and one commercial—under a master association, others have
separate associations, and some have just one association with proportional
board representation. Because the structures of mixed-use communities differ,
a clear allocation of maintenance costs must be outlined to avoid disputes
between ownership groups.
What Fees Cover:
• Shared plazas
• Parking facilities
• Landscape maintenance
• Security infrastructure
