a deed therefor, whether or not it shall be so expressed in such deed, is deemed to
covenant, as a covenant running with the Lot, and agree to fully abide by and comply with
the Articles of Incorporation and By -Laws of the Association, as amended from time to time.
The activities of the Association shall, in addition to the Articles of Incorporation and By -Laws,
be subject to the following directions, limitations and conditions:
(a) Membership. Every Owner of a Lot, including the Allottor, shall be a
member of the Association. Membership shall be appurtenant to and not be separated from
ownership of any Lot which is subject to assessment. The Owner(s) of each Lot shall be
entitled to one vote for each Lot owned. When more than one person holds an interest in any
Lot, all such persons shall individually be Members but shall collectively have one vote only
with respect to each Lot owned by such persons. The Allottor shall be entitled to one vote
for each Lot owned by Allottor.
(b) Owner's Easements of Enjoyment. Every Owner shall have a right and
easement of enjoyment in and to any Common Area, which shall be appurtenant to and which
shall pass with the title to every Lot, at such time or times as the Common Area shall be
conveyed to the Association by the Allottor, subject to the following provisions:
11
DECLARATION OF RESTRICTIVE
COVENANTS AND BILL OF ASSURANCE
(i) The right of the Association to charge assessments, fees and
charges for the acquisition, construction, operation, maintenance and
repair of any Common Area and private streets.
(ii) The right of the Association to suspend voting rights and rights to use
of any Common Areas by an Owner for any period during which any
assessment as hereinafter described against such Owner's Lot remains
unpaid; and for a period not to exceed 60 days for any infraction of
the published rules and regulations regarding the use of such Common
Area facilities promulgated by the Association;
(iii) The right of the Association to dedicate or transfer all or any part of
any Common Area to any public agency or utility for such purposes and
subject to such conditions as may be agreed to by the Association. No
such dedication or transfer shall be effective except upon the vote of a
majority of the Members;
(iv) The right of the Allottor to use of any of the Common Area to
promote sales of unsold Lots within the Addition, such use to be
without cost to Allottor; and,
(c) Covenant for Maintenance Assessments. Except for property otherwise
exempt from assessment as herein provided, each Owner of any Lot by acceptance of a deed
therefor, whether or not it shall be so expressed in such deed, is deemed to covenant
and agree to pay to the Association:
(1) Annual assessments or charges; and,
(2) Special Assessments.
The annual and special assessments, together with interest, costs and reasonable
Attorney's fees shall be a charge on the Lots and shall be a continuing lien upon the property
against which each such assessment is made. Each such assessment, together with interest,
cost, and reasonable attorney's fees, shall also be the personal obligation of the person or
persons who was the Owner or Owners of such Lot at the time when the assessment fell due.
The assessments levied by the Association shall be used exclusively for the recreation, health,
safety and welfare of the Owners, for the improvement, operation and maintenance of the
common areas and private streets, for repair and replacement of common areas and streets
within the Addition, whether public or private, for insurance, taxes, and other costs and
expenses related to, and, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, consistent with the purposes
of the Association. The initial a n n u a 1 assessment which may be collected monthly shall be
fixed by the Board of Directors of the Association to commence at such time or times as shall
be determined by Board of Directors to commence at such time or times as shall be determined
by Board of Directors. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the
Board of Directors of the Association shall be empowered to levy, in any assessment year, a
special assessment applicable to that year only for the purpose of deferring and paying, in whole
12
DECLARATION OF RESTRICTIVE
COVENANTS AND BILL OF ASSURANCE
or part, the costs of any construction, reconstruction, repair or replacement of a capital
improvement located upon and situated in the common areas and private streets, including
fixtures and personal property related thereto, and such other costs as the Board of Directors
deems desirable or necessary. Any annual and special assessments as hereinbefore described
shall be uniform for all non-exempt Lots within the Addition and may be collected on a
monthly basis. The annual assessments hereinbefore described, once levied, shall commence
as to each non-exempt Lot upon the first day of the month following the date of sale by the
Allottor of each such Lot. The first annual assessment shall be adjusted according to the number
of months remaining in the calendar year and the amount thereof shall be pro -rated. The Board
of Directors of the Association shall fix the amount of the initial assessment against each non-
exempt Lot at least 30 days in advance of each annual assessment period. Written notice of
the annual assessment shall be sent to every Owner subject thereto. The due date shall be
established by the Board of Directors of the Association. The Association shall, upon demand,
and for a reasonable charge, furnish a certificate signed by an officer of the Association setting
forth whether the assessments on a specified Lot have been paid. A properly executed
certificate of the Association as to the status of assessment of a Lot is binding upon the
Association as of the date of its issuance.
(d) Property Exempt from Association Assessments. Any Lot, Tract or
property owned by the Allottor, the private streets and roads, any Common Areas and any
Tract, facilities or property owned by the Association shall be exempt from, and not
subject to, any assessment or charge by the Association, either annual or special, and no
such assessment shall be due and owing on any such exempt property or Lot.
(e) Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments and Remedies. Any assessment,
charge, fee or expense levied or charged by the Association not paid by an Owner within
30 days after the due date thereof as established and fixed by the Board of Directors of
the Association shall bear interest from the due date at the maximum rate allowed under
Arkansas and the Association may, upon such default, bring an action at law against the
Owner or Owners personally obligated to pay the same, or it may, in addition to pursuing
personal liability therefore against the Owner, foreclose the lien of the assessment,
charge, fee or expenses against the Lot. In the event any annual assessments, special
assessments and any other charges, fees or expenses levied, charged or billed by the Association
from time to time, is not paid in full as and when due and the same is collected by or
through an attorney, the Owner of the Lot covenants, promises and agrees to pay to pay the
interest accrued thereon and any costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the
collection of same. The Owner may not waive or otherwise escape liability for the
assessment, charge, fee or expenses herein provided by non-use of the Common Area or
abandonment of his Lot. The lien of the assessments, charges, fees and
expenses provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage on the
Lot. The sale or transfer of any Lot pursuant to any mortgage foreclosure or proceeding in
lieu thereof, shall extinguish the lien of such assessments, charges, fees and expenses as to
payments which became due prior to such sale or transfer, but not otherwise.
