COVENANT FOR MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENTS
Section
1. Creation of the Lien and Personal Obligation of Assessments.
The Declarant, for each Dwelling Unit owned within the Property, hereby
covenants, and each Owner of any Dwelling Unit, by acceptance of a deed
therefore, whether or not it shall be so expressed in any such deed or
other conveyance, shall be deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the
Association (1) annual assessments or charges; (2) special assessments
for capital improvements, such assessments to be fixed, established, and
collected from time to time as hereinafter provided. No such charges shall
be assessed for any Lots within the Property not improved to constitute
Dwelling Units, as defined herein. The annual and special assessments,
together with such interest thereon and costs of collection thereof as
hereinafter provided, shall be a charge on the land, shall be a continuing
lien upon the Dwelling Unit against which each such assessment is made,
together with such interest thereon and the cost of collection thereof
as hereinafter provided, and shall also be the personal obligation of
the person who was the owner of such Dwelling Unit at the time when
O.R.3518
PG. 161
the assessment
fell due. The personal obligation for delinquent assessments shall not pass
to successors in title unless expressly assumed by them. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the obligation shall be joint
and several as to the Owner in the event that the Owner constitutes more
than one person or entity.
Section 2. Purpose of Assessments. The assessments levied
by the Association shall be used exclusively for the purpose of implementing
the corporate purposes and powers of the Association and promoting the recreation,
health, safety and welfare of the residents of the Property, including,
but not limited to, the maintenance of lawns and landscaping the payment
of taxes on the Common Area and insurance thereon and repair, replacement,
and additions thereto, and for the costs of labor, equipment, materials,
management, signage, maintenance, landscaping and supervision thereof. In
the event that the Board of Directors of the Association determines that
landscaping and/or maintenance of any areas dedicated to Orange County is
in the best interests of the Subdivision, and said landscaping and/or maintenance
is not provided by Orange County by means of a Municipal Service Taxing
Unit as provided in Article VIII, Section 21 hereof or otherwise, the Board
of Directors shall also be entitled to levy a special assessment or utilize
the annual assessments for the purpose of providing such landscaping and/or
maintenance.
Section 3. Basis and Maximum of Annual Assessments. Until January
1 of the year immediately following the conveyance of the first Dwelling
Unit to an Owner, the maximum annual assessment by the Association for each
Dwelling Unit for which a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued, or any
similar governmental approval permitting occupancy of a Dwelling Unit, shall
be EIGHT HUNDRED FORTY AND NO/lOO DOLLARS ($840.00) per Dwelling Unit.
(a)
From and after January 1 of the year immediately
O.R.3518
PG. 162
following the conveyance of the first Dwelling
Unit the maximum annual assessment by the Association may not be increased
each year more than fifteen percent (15%) cumulative, above the maximum
assessment for the previous year without a vote of approval by a majority
of the total cumulative votes cast by Class A and Class B Members of the
Association, voting in person or by proxy, at a duly called for such purpose.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that additional Common Area
is provided for the Subdivision Community by virtue of the recording of
subsequent plats of the Subdivision Community or otherwise, then the maximum
annual assessment may be increased by the Board of Directors of the Association
by an amount in excess of fifteen percent (15%), cumulative, above the
maximum assessment for the previous year, without a vote of the membership
of the Association.
(b) The Board of Directors
of the Association may, after consideration of current maintenance costs
and future needs of the Association, fix the annual assessment for any
year at a lesser amount than the maximum and may fix the assessment for
each calendar year and may increase the maximum assessment by as much
as fifteen percent (15%), cumulative, over the maximum amount set for
the previous calendar year. If the Directors do not so raise the assessment
by fifteen percent (15%) in any one year, the difference between the fifteen
percent (15%) maximum and the actual percentage increase in assessment
in any given year may be accumulated and used in subsequent years by the
Board of Directors.
(c) Both annual and special assessments by the Association
must be fixed at a uniform rate for all Dwelling Units and may be collected
on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis as evidenced by resolution of
the Board of Directors of the Association.
OR
3518 PG. 163
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Association
shall have the right to make special assessments for Dwelling Units on

this Declaration including but not limited to the items set forth in Sections
10, 18, and 20 of Article VIII of the Declaration.

to the annual assessments authorized by Section 3 hereof, the Association

year only, for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part, the cost
of any construction or reconstruction, repair or replacement of a described
capital improvement upon the Common Area which is the property of the
Association, including the necessary fixtures and personal property related
thereto, provided that such assessment shall have the assent of a majority
of the cumulative votes cast by Class A and Class B Members who are voting
in person or by proxy at a duly called for this purpose, written notice
of which shall be sent to all Members not less than thirty (30) days in
advance and not more than sixty (60) days in advance of the meeting and
shall set forth the purpose of the meeting.
Section 5. Change in Basis and Maximum of Annual Assessments.

specified, the Association may change the maximum and basis of the assessments
fixed by Section 3 hereof prospectively for any such period provided that

Class A and Class B Members who are voting in votes cast by Class A and
Class B Members who are voting in person or by proxy, at a meeting duly
called for that purpose, written notice of which shall be sent to all
Members not less than thirty (30) days in advance and not more than sixty
(60) days in advance of the meeting and shall set forth the purpose
O.R.3518 PG. 164

5 hereof shall be as follows: At the first meeting called, as provided
in Sections 4 and 5 hereof, the presence at the meeting of Members of
the Association, or of proxies, entitled to cast a majority of all the
cumulative votes of both classes of membership combined shall constitute
a quorum. If the required quorum is not forthcoming at any meeting, another
meeting may be called, subject to the notice requirements set forth in
Sections 4 and 5 and the required quorum at any such subsequent meeting
shall be one-third (1/3) of the total cumulative votes of both classes

more than sixty (60) days following the preceding meeting.
Section 7. Date of Commencement of Annual Assessments; Due
Dates The annual assessments provided for herein shall commence on the
first day of the month following the conveyance of the Common Area. The
first annual assessments shall be made for the balance of the calendar
year and shall become due and payable on the day fixed for commencement.
The assessments for any year, after the first year, shall become due and
payable on the first day of January of said year. As provided in Section
3, subparagraph (a), the assessments may be collected on a payment schedule
set by the Board of Directors of the Association. The amount of the annual
assessment which may be levied for the balance remaining in the first
year of assessment shall be an amount which bears the same relationship
to the annual assessment provided for in Section 3 hereof as the remaining
number of months in that year bears to twelve (12) The due date of any
special assessment under Section 4 hereof shall be fixed in the resolution
authorizing such assessment.
Section 8. Duties of the Board of Directors. The Board
O.R.3518
PG. 165
of Directors
of the Association shall determine the amount of the assessment against
each Dwelling Unit for each assessment period at least thirty (30) days
in advance of such date or period and shall, at that time, prepare a roster
of the properties and assessments applicable thereto which shall be kept
in the office of the Association and shall be open to inspection by any
Owner. Written notice of the assessment shall thereupon be sent to every
Owner subject thereto. The Association shall, upon demand, and for a reasonable
charge, furnish to any Owner liable for said assessment, a certificate
in writing signed by an officer of the Association, setting forth whether
said assessment has been paid. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence
of payment of any assessment therein stated to have been paid.
Section 9. Effect of Nonpayment of Assessment. The Personal
Obligation of the Owner; the Lien; Remedies of Association. If the assessments
are not paid on the date when due ( being the dates specified in Section
7 hereof ), then such assessment shall become delinquent and shall, together
with such interest thereon and cost of collection thereof as hereinafter
provided, thereupon become a continuing lien on the Dwelling Unit which
shall bind such Dwelling Unit in the hands of the then Owner, the Owner's
heirs, devisees, personal representatives and assigns. The personal obligation
of the then Owner to pay such assessment, however, shall remain the Owner's
personal obligation. If the Owner is comprised of more than one (1) person
or entity, the elements comprising the Owner shall be jointly and severally
liable for the obligation to pay such assessment. If the assessment is
not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date, the assessment shall
bear interest from the due date at the maximum rate of interest permitted
by law per annum1 and the Association may bring an action at law against
the Owner personally obligated to pay the same or to foreclose
O.R.3518
PG. 166
the lien
against the Dwelling Unit, and in the event a judgment is obtained, such
judgment shall include interest on the assessment as above provided and
a reasonable attorneys' fee to be fixed by the Court, together with the
costs of action.
Section 10. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The
lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the
lien of any institutional first mortgage or mortgages now or hereafter
placed upon the Dwelling Unit subject to assessment; provided, however,
that such subordination shall apply only to the assessments which have
become due and payable prior to a sale or transfer of such property pursuant
to a decree of foreclosure, or any other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure.
Such sale or transfer shall not relieve such property from liability for
any assessments thereafter becoming due, nor from the lien of any such
subsequent assessment.
Section 11. Exempt Property. The following property subject to
this Declaration shall be exempted from the assessments, charge and lien
created herein:
(a) All properties to the extent of any easement
or other interest therein dedicated and accepted by the local public authority
and devoted to public use.

guests, or invitees or others whose presence is authorized by the Owner,
the Association shall have the right to impose a special assessment against
said Owner to pay for such extraordinary costs. Such assessment shall

the right, but not the duty, to enter upon any Lot or Dwelling Unit, such
entry to be made by personnel with tractors or other suitable devices,

OR 3518 PG. 175
opinion
of the Association detracts from the setting and safety of the Subdivision

The provisions in this Section shall not be construed as an obligation
on the part of the Association to mow, clear, cut or prune any Lot or
Dwelling Unit nor to provide garbage or trash removal services. The costs
incurred by the Association in exercising its rights under this Section
shall constitute a special assessment against the Owner of the Lot or
Dwelling Unit and shall in every respect constitute a lien against said
Lot or Dwelling Unit as would any assessment or special assessment.
Section 11. Signs. No commercial signs, including "For Rent," "For
Sale" and other similar signs, shall be erected or maintained on any Lot
or Dwelling Unit except with the written permission of the Association
or except as may be required by legal proceedings it being understood

erection is reasonably necessary to avert serious hardship to the property
Owner. If such permission is granted, the Association shall have the right
to restrict size, color and content of such signs. Property identification
and like signs exceeding a combined total of more than two (2) square
feet may not be erected without the written permission of the Association.
This restriction shall not apply to restrict Declarant or its agents from
erecting such signs as Declarant deems in its sole discretion to be necessary
to assist Declarant in selling any Dwelling Unit.
Section 12. Allowable Trim. No owner or tenant of an Owner shall
install shutters, awnings, or other decorative
O.R.3518 PG. 176

beyond the side of any such residence so as to be visible from the front
of the Dwelling Unit. Solar panels may only be installed on the rear of
the Dwelling Unit. Provided, however, if the ARC determines that suitable
screening exists, or that the installation sought is of a nature which
would not detract from the Subdivision Community, then the ARC may approve
a non-conforming installation after receipt of a detailed set of plans
showing site, location, color and material of construction, and a written
request for such non-conforming installation.
Section 15. No Clothes Lines. There shall not be erected on any Lot or
Dwelling Unit a clothes line, clothes pole, or other devise which has

articles to dry or air unless the same is erected within a screened enclosure

Section 16. Street Side Mail Boxes. No Owner or tenant of an Owner
shall erect a street side mail box until and unless
O.R.3517 PG. 177
the same
has been first approved in writing by the ARC.
Section 17. Party Walls and Common Driveways. All common or party
walls and common driveways, if any, shall be maintained by the Owners
of those residences adjoining a party wall or served by a common driveway,
subject to the right, but not the obligation, of the Association to maintain
the same as hereinafter set forth. If an Owner or an Owner's agent, tenant,
guest or invitee damages a party or common wall or common driveway, or
causes damage to the person or property of an adjoining Owner or tenant
as a result of damage to a party or common wall or common driveway arising
from the negligence or intentional acts of said Owner or his agent, tenant,
guest or invitee, then the Owner who caused or whose agent, tenant, guest
or invitee caused said damage shall be liable and responsible for the
damages to and costs of repair of the party wall or common driveway and
to the adjoining Owner or tenant for the damages to their person or property,
and for any costs incurred by the Association or the adjoining Owner or
tenant in the collection thereof, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
All costs of reconstructing a party wall or common driveway in the event
such party wall or common driveway is destroyed or damaged in a manner
other than as set forth hereinabove shall be borne equally by the Owners
of the residences adjoining such party wall or served by such common driveway.
In the event one Owner bears the entire expense for reconstruction of
a party wall or common driveway, then in such event the Owner of the adjoining
residence shall pay to the Owner who reconstructed the party wall or common
driveway one-half (1/2) of the expense incurred in that reconstruction.
Either adjoining Owner and the Association shall have the right to enter
on the other adjoining Lot or Dwelling Unit and into the adjoining residence,
after notice for the purpose off reconstructing a party wall or common
driveway.
Either adjoining
Owner shall have an equal right to use a
O.R.
3518 PG. 178
party wall
for the support of structural members of a residence to be constructed
on either adjoining Lot or Dwelling Unit and a common driveway for access
to each Lot or Dwelling Unit served thereby. This right shall be subject,
however, to payment by the Owner seeking to tie into the party wall of
any costs involved in tying into the party wall and payment of any damage
occasioned therefrom.
Each party
wall shall be subject to an easement of support for adjoining Dwelling
Units subject to payment of costs as provided above and shall be subject
to an easement for conduits, ducts, plumbing, wiring and other facilities
for the furnishing of utility services to adjoining Dwelling Units.
Section 18. Exterior Maintenance. Each individual Owner shall have
the responsibility to maintain the exterior of their respective Dwelling
Unit and residence. In the event the exterior of said Dwelling Unit or
residence is damaged in such fashion so as to create a health or safety
hazard to adjoining Dwelling Units or to create a nuisance or to be unsightly
and not in keeping with the quality of the Subdivision Community and such
damage is not repaired within thirty (30) days from the occurrence of
the damage, then in such an event, the Association shall have the right
to make reasonable repairs to the exterior of such Dwelling Unit or residence
and shall be entitled to make a special assessment against the Owner of
the Dwelling Unit for the costs of such repairs. Provided further, if
an Owner or an agent of said Owner, either intentionally or negligently
damages any portion, including the lawn, of any Lot or Dwelling Unit so
as to create a health or safety hazard to adjoining Dwelling Units or
to create a nuisance or to be unsightly and not in keeping with the quality
of the Subdivision Community, as determined by the Board of Directors,
whether such damage occurs as a result of utilization of each Owner's
easement for exterior maintenance and patio construction, as set forth
in Article VI, Section 2, or
O.R.3518
PG. 179
otherwise,
then the Owner who caused or whose agent caused said damage shall be liable
and responsible for the repair of the same. In the event such damage is
not repaired within thirty (30) days from the occurrence of the damage,
then in such an event, the Association shall have the right to make reasonable
repairs to the Lots or Dwelling Units so damaged, and shall be entitled
to make a special assessment against the responsible Owner for the costs
of such repairs. Such assessment shall in every respect constitute a lien
on the Dwelling Unit as would any other assessment or special assessment
by the Association.
Section 19. Access at Reasonable Hours. For the sole purpose of
performing the lawn and landscaping maintenance, exterior maintenance,
when required as set forth above, maintenance to party walls, or any other
repairs authorized by this Declaration, the Association, through its duly
authorized agents, contractors or employees shall have a license which
shall be exercisable after reasonable notice to the Owner to enter upon
any Lot or Dwelling Unit or exterior or interior of any residence at reasonable
hours on any day of the week.
Section 20. Insurance on Dwelling Units NO LONGER REQUIRED TO DELIVER
COPY OF HAZARD INSURANCE SEE FIRST AMENDMENT ATTACHED HEREIN An owner
shall have an affirmative duty to promptly repair a Dwelling Unit damaged
either intentionally or negligently by said Owner or his tenant, guest,
or invitee, even in the event said damage is not insured against by said
policy, and shall further have said affirmative duty to promptly repair
a Dwelling Unit
OR
3518 PG. 180
damaged
by any hazard insured against by said policy. In either event, if an Owner
of a Dwelling Unit tails to commence repairs of a Dwelling Unit within
thirty (30) days after funds from said insurance policy either are made
available for repair, or are denied by the insurer, then the Association
shall be entitled, but not obligated, to make repairs utilizing the portion
of the insurance funds allotted for that Dwelling Unit for such repairs,
if any, and shall be entitled to levy a special assessment against said
Dwelling Unit for any costs of repairs in excess of the allocated insurance
funds. The Association shall have the right, but not the duty, to maintain
a master insurance policy on all Dwelling Units which policy, if obtained,
shall be paid for from special assessments levied against the Owners by
the Association. Said policy shall be with an insurance company chosen
by the Association and shall be in an amount sufficient to replace the
entire structure or Dwelling Unit (not including interior furnishings
and contents) if such loss is caused by the named perils in the insurance
policy. The Association shall be the named loss payee on said policy.
Proceeds from the policy shall be paid into a special fund to be controlled
by the Association for the purpose of reconstructing Dwelling Units. The
Association shall be entitled to apportion said funds for reconstruction
in the manner it deems necessary.
Section 21. Municipal Service Taxing Units. The Property shall
be subject to Municipal Service Taxing Units for drainage and lighting,
and may be subject to Municipal Service Taxing Units for widening of Apopka-Vineland
Road, and/or for landscaping maintenance of those areas dedicated to Orange
County on the plat of Granada Villas One or subsequently recorded plats
of the Subdivision Community, or dedicated in any other manner to Orange
County, whether such Municipal Service Taxing Units exist on the effective
date of this Declaration or are created in the future at the request of
the
OR
3518 PG. 181
Declarant
or at the direction of Orange County. The Declarant reserves unto itself
and all Owners grant to the Declarant the right to request formation of
Municipal Service Taxing Units for drainage and lighting purposes, and
for the widening of Apopka Vineland Road, and landscaping maintenance
for those areas dedicated to Orange County, and to subject the Lots, and
Dwelling Units to the taxes imposed thereby. Each individual Owner of
a Lot or Dwelling Unit, by acceptance of the deed of conveyance therefore,
hereby agrees to their Lot or Dwelling Unit being subjected to Municipal
Service Taxing Units or other similar entities or devices for such purposes,
and to the taxes imposed thereby, and hereby agrees to support requests
for the same to be formed and hereby agrees to not object thereto, whether
verbally or in writing.
Section 22. Easement for Lawn and Landscape Watering System. The
Declarant reserves unto itself an easement for the establishment, installation
and maintenance of a lawn and landscape watering system over, upon, under
and across any portion of any Lot or Dwelling Unit. This easement shall
exist for so long as this Declaration is effective. Declarant shall not
be entitled to install said lawn and landscape watering system over any
particular Dwelling Unit in such a manner so as to interfere with the
reasonable use of said Dwelling Unit as a residence. The easement reserved
in this Section 22 shall be in addition to and shall not substitute for
the easement reserved to the Declarant in Article VI.
Section 23. Septic Tanks. Each Lot shall contain one or more septic
tanks, each of which septic tank shall serve one or more Dwelling Units
within said Lot. All septic tanks shall be maintained by the Owners of
those Dwelling Units served by said septic tanks subject to the right
of the Association to maintain the same as hereinafter set forth. If an
Owner or an Owner's tenant, guest or invitee causes damage to a common
septic tank, or causes damage to the person or property of an
OR
3518 PG. 182
adjoining
Owner or tenant as a result of damage to a septic tank, then the Owner
who caused or whose tenant, guest or invitee caused said damage shall
be liable and responsible to the Association for the damages to the common
septic tank and to the adjoining Owner or tenant for the damages to their
person or property, and for any costs incurred by the Association or the
adjoining Owner or tenant in the collection thereof, including reasonable
attorneys' fees.
All costs
of maintaining and repairing a common septic tank in the event such septic
tank is destroyed or damaged in a manner other than as set forth hereinabove
shall be borne equally by the Owners of the residences served by such
common septic tank. In the event one Owner bears the entire expense for
such repairs, then in such event the Owner of the adjoining residence
shall pay to the Owner who repaired the septic tank one-half (1/2) of
the expense incurred in said repairs. Either adjoining Owner shall have
the right to enter on the other adjoining Lot or Dwelling Unit for the
purpose of repairing a common septic tank.

COVENANTS AGAINST PARTITION AND SEPARATE TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP RIGHTS
Recognizing
that the full use and enjoyment of any Lot or Dwelling Unit located in
the Subdivision Community is dependent upon the right to the use and enjoyment
of Common Areas and the improvements made thereto, and that it is in the
interests of all of the Owners that the right to the use and enjoyment
of the Common Areas be retained by the Owners of Lots and Dwelling Units,
it is therefore declared that the right to the use and enjoyment of any
Owner in the Common Areas shall remain undivided, and such Owners shall
have no right at law or equity to seek partition or severance of such
right to the use and enjoyment of the Common Areas. In addition there
shall exist no right to transfer the right to the use and enjoyment of
the
O.R.3518
PG. 183
Common Areas

with, a transfer of title to a Lot or Dwelling Unit in the Subdivision
Community. Provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude a conveyance
by the Declarant herein of any undivided interest in the Common Areas
to the Owners of Lots or Dwelling Units within the Subdivision Community
for the purpose of effectuating the intent of this Declaration. Any conveyance
or transfer of a Lot or Dwelling Unit in the Subdivision Community shall
include the right to use and enjoyment of the Common Areas appurtenant
to such Lot or Dwelling Unit subject to reasonable rules and regulations
promulgated by the Declarant or the Association for such use and enjoyment,
whether or not such rights shall have been described or referred to in
the deed by which said Lot or Dwelling Unit is conveyed.
