Offensive Trade or Activity Clause Samples

The "Offensive Trade or Activity" clause prohibits tenants or parties from engaging in business activities or behaviors on the premises that are considered illegal, immoral, or disruptive to the surrounding community. Typically, this clause applies to activities such as operating a business that creates excessive noise, emits unpleasant odors, or is otherwise deemed a nuisance by local standards. Its core function is to maintain a safe, lawful, and harmonious environment within the property, protecting both the landlord’s interests and the well-being of other tenants or neighbors.
Offensive Trade or Activity. No noxious, offensive or illegal materials or activity shall be conducted, kept or permitted on the Property which will cause emission of offensive dust, smoke, odors, gases, light or noises, or which may be or become a nuisance, safety hazard or an unreasonable annoyance to UCDP Property or the neighborhood (“neighborhood” includes real estate both outside as well as within the boundaries of the Buyer’s Property). The foregoing provisions shall not prohibit matters necessarily resulting from excavation and construction work which is conducted in accordance with the usual, lawful and customary procedures incident to such excavation or construction work. Any trade, activity or material (which terms include anything capable of being discerned by the human senses which, in any manner, is offered or made available to the public, and also includes any form of advertising) which is pornographic, obscene, lewd or lascivious shall be deemed to be noxious or offensive trade, activity or matter. UCDP reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to determine whether or not a trade, activity or material is pornographic, obscene, lewd or lascivious. The Association reserves the right in the Rules and Restrictions to establish limitations on activities reasonably likely to result in a violation of this Section 2.2.1.
