But after 2 or 3 emails back and forth the string gets kind of hard to read. The person you want to talk with at the City of Springfield tomorrow is Liz Miller. She is a Planner, and her number is 541-726-2301. Also her email is address is Imiller(@sprinefield-or.gov if you need to get a hold of her for any reason. Like I said on the phone the total amount for the application that needs to be paid to the City of Springfield is $930+ ($580`10) = $6,730 + %5 = $7,066.50 There is one problem that came to me as I was writing this. The application that I am turning in tomorow has signature lines for the owners. But it also has signature lines for the agent, which is me as I'm filling it out. But I might need your signature. I'll find out for sure in the a.m. Thanks, and have a good night. Mick Mick Wyntergreen, ALS 84224 7-0126.

McElhany 2600 31" Street Springfield, Oregon 97477 BYLAWS OF GARDEN VIEW PLACE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION Article 1 PLAN OF LOT OWNERSHIP; DEFINITIONS 1.1 Bylaws Applicability. These Bylaws apply to the Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 (the "Member Lots') and the Common Area in Garden View Place, a planned community in Lane County, Oregon, that have been subjected to the Declaration of Conditions, Covenants, and Restrictions of Garden View Place (the "Declaration"), as well as to the Garden View Place Homeowners' Association, an Oregon nonprofit corporation (the "Association '�, and the entire management structure thereof. 1.2 Lots; Property. The Member Lots and the Common Area may be collectively referred to in these Bylaws as the "Property" or "Project" and the Member Lots individually as a 'Lot" or collectively as the "Lots." 1.3 Personal Application. All present or future Owners, tenants, Occupants, and their employees, and any other person that might occupy any portion of the Property in any manner, are subject to the provisions set forth in these Bylaws. The acquisition, rental, or occupancy of any of the Lots constitutes acceptance and ratification of these Bylaws and agreement to comply with all the provisions hereof. 1.4 Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in Article 1 of the Declaration. 1.5 Oregon Planned Community Act. The Property, all Lots and Owners thereof, and the Association and all Members thereof, are subject to the Oregon Planned Community Act, ORS 94.550-94.783 (the "PCA'). 1.6 Declaration. The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Garden View Place. Page 1 - Bylaws for Garden View Place Article 2 ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIP; VOTING; MAIORITY OF OWNERS; QUORUM; PROXIES 2.1 Membership in the Association. Upon recordation of a conveyance or a land sale contract to convey a Lot, the grantee or contract purchaser named in the conveyance or contract will automatically be and will remain a Member of the Association until such time as the person's ownership ceases for any reason. For all purposes of the Declaration and the administration of the Property, Lot ownership will be determined from the records maintained by the Association. The record will be established by the Owner filing with the Association a copy of the deed to or land sale contract for the Owner's Lot, to which must be affixed the certificate of the recording officer of Lane County, Oregon, showing the date and place of recording of the deed or contract (or Memorandum Therapy). No person will be recognized as an Owner unless a copy of the deed or contract has been filed with the Association as provided above showing the Owner to be the current Owner or contract purchaser of a Lot. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Declarant is the Owner of all previously unsold Lots, although no deed or land sale contract, with respect to such Lots, has been fled with the Association. 2.2 Voting Rights. The Association has two classes of voting members: 2.2.1 Class A. Class A members include all Owners of Lots other than Declarant, and each Class A member is entitled to one vote for each Lot owned with respect to all matters on which Owners are entitled to vote. 2.2.2 Class B. The Class B member is the Declarant, its successors, and its assigns. The Class B member has three votes for each Lot owned. The Class B membership will cease and be converted to Class A membership upon the date on which Declarant elects in writing to terminate Class B membership; or the date the Declarant no longer owns any lot in Garden View Place (the "Termination Date'). After the Termination Date, each Owner, including Declarant, will have one vote for each Lot owned with respect to all matters on which Owners are entitled to vote, and the total number of votes will be equal to the total number of Lots subject to this Declaration. When more than one person or entity owns a Lot, the vote for the Lot may be cast as they determine, but in no event will fractional voting be allowed. Fractional or split votes will be disregarded, except for purposes of determining a quorum. 2.3 Majority of Owners. As used in these Bylaws, the term majority means those Owners holding over 50 percent of the voting rights allocated to the Owners in accordance with the Declaration and Section 2.2 above. Majority of Owners present means Owners holding over 50 percent of the votes present at any legal meeting. Page 2 - Bylaws for Garden View Place 2.4 Quorum. Except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws or ORS 94.655(3) or (4), the presence in person or by proxy of Owners holding 35 percent or more of the outstanding votes in the Association, as defined in Section 2.2 of this Article, will constitute a quorum. 2.5 Voting; Proxies. Owners may cast votes in person, by written ballot, by proxy, or if allowed by the Board of Directors, by electronic ballot in accordance with ORS 94.661. Proxies must be filed with the Secretary of the Association C'Secretary's before or during the appointed meeting. A proxy will expire one year after the date it was signed unless a shorter period is specified in the proxy. The proxies may require the holder to cast a vote for or against any special proposal set forth in the notice calling the meeting. Unless withdrawn, a proxy given to another person to vote at a specific meeting will also be valid at an adjourned meeting called under the provisions of Section 3.8. The Association must retain proxies and ballots for one year from the date of the determination of the vote. 2.6 Authority to Vote. All Owners, including those who have leased their Lot to a third party, will be entitled to vote. An Owner's right to vote may not be revoked. A purchaser under a land sale contract entitled to immediate possession of the Lot will be deemed the Owner thereof, unless otherwise provided in the contract. 2.7 Fiduciaries and Joint Owners. An executor, administrator, guardian, or trustee may vote, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of the Association with respect to any Lot owned or held by the person in such capacity, whether or not the Lot has been transferred to the person's name, as long as the person has satisfied the Secretary (in the Secretary's reasonable discretion) that the person is the executor, administrator, guardian, or trustee holding the Lot in such capacity. Whenever any Lot is owned by two or more persons jointly according to the records of the Association, the vote of the Lot may be exercised by any one of the Owners then present, in the absence of protest by a co-owner. In the event of a protest, no one co-owner will be entitled to vote without the approval of all co-owners. In the event of disagreement among the co-owners, the vote of the Lot will be disregarded for all purposes, except for determining whether a quorum is present. Article 3 ADMINISTRATION 3.1 Association Responsibilities. The Owners constitute the Members of the Association. Except as otherwise provided in the Declaration or these Bylaws, decisions and resolutions of the Association will require approval by a majority of the Owners present at any legal meeting. A legal meeting is one duly called under these Bylaws at which a quorum is present, in person or by proxy at a formal gathering or, if a vote is taken by written ballots, when ballots are returned representing more than 50 percent of the vote, unless a larger vote is required to approve a ballot item, in which case the quorum requirements will be the number of votes required to approve the proposal. Page 3 - Bylaws for Garden View Place 3.2 Place of Meetings. Formal meetings of the Association must be held at suitable places reasonably convenient to the Owners, as may be designated by the Board of Directors of the Association (the "Board'D. If a vote is taken by written ballot, the Board must count the returned written ballots within 48 hours of the ballot return deadline. Each Owner must be notified by mail or other delivery of written notice of the results of the ballot meeting or that a quorum of ballots was not returned within 15 days after the ballot return deadline. 3.3 Turnover Meeting. Declarant must call a meeting (which will be the initial meeting) for the purpose of turning over administrative control of the Association from Declarant to the Members within 90 days after of the Termination Date. 3.3.1 Based on Lot Sales. The date on which Eight of the Member Lots in Garden View Place have been sold and conveyed to Owners other than Declarant; or 3.3.2 Earliest Date. The date on which Declarant delivers written notice to the Association of termination of Class B membership. Declarant must give notice of the Turnover Meeting to each Owner as provided in these Bylaws. If Declarant does not call the meeting as required under this Section 3.3, any Owner may do so. At the Turnover Meeting, Declarant must relinquish control of the administration of the Association and the Owners must assume such control and must elect the Board in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 of these Bylaws. Additionally, Declarant must deliver to the Association all business and financial records, together with all Association bank accounts, funds, and other assets as required by ORS 94.616. The Turnover Meeting may not be conducted by written ballot. 3.4 Annual Meetings. The Board, by a Board action, must cause the first annual meeting of the Association to be held during the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Turnover Meeting is held. The Board, in its discretion, from time to time, may change the meeting date, as long as the meeting is held annually. At the meetings, the Owners must elect new members of the Board in accordance with the requirements of Section 4.7 of these Bylaws to replace those Directors whose terms have expired. The Owners also may transact such other business of the Association as may properly come before them. Annual meetings of the Association may not be conducted by written ballot. 3.5 Special Meetings. The President must call a special meeting of the Owners if so directed by a resolution of the Board or a petition, presented to the Secretary and signed by 30 percent or more of the Owners. All meetings called because of petition of Owners must be held at a formal gathering, and not by written ballot, within 60 days after the Secretary's receipt of the petition. The notice of any special meeting must state the time and place of the meeting and the purpose thereof. No business other than that stated in the notice may be transacted at a special meeting Page 4 - Bylaws for Garden View Place unless by consent of all the Owners of the Lots or as otherwise set forth in these Bylaws. 3.6 Notice of Meetings. The Secretary must mail a notice of each annual and special meeting, stating the purpose thereof and the time and place where the meeting is to be held, to each Owner of record at least 10 but not more than 50 days before the meeting or the date on which ballots for a ballot meeting are required to be returned. The Board of Directors may propose that the Owners take an action by written ballot without a meeting or by electronic ballot as provided by ORS 94.661, according to the provisions of the PCA and the Oregon Nonprofit Corporation Act. The notice must be mailed to the Owner's address last given to the Secretary in writing by the Owner or the Owner's vendee. If Lot ownership is split or the Lot has been sold on a contract, notice will be sent to a single address, of which the Secretary has been notified in writing by the parties. If no address has been given to the Secretary in writing, then mailing to the Project Lot will be sufficient. The mailing of a notice in the manner provided in this Section 3.7 will be considered notice served. 3.7 Adjourned Meetings. As permitted by ORS 65.214, if any gathering of Owners is not a legal meeting because a quorum has not attended, the Owners who are present, either in person or by proxy, may adjourn the meeting to a time not less than 48 hours nor more than 10 days from the time of the original meeting. The adjournment provisions of this Section 3.8 do not apply to actions proposed to be taken by written ballot. 3.8 Ballot Meetings. Unless prohibited or limited by the Articles of Incorporation of the Association or the PCA, any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of the Owners may be taken without a meeting if the Association delivers a written ballot to every Owner entitled to vote on the matter as provided in ORS 94.647 or delivers an electronic ballot to every Owner entitled to vote on the matter as provided in ORS 94.661. The ballot must set forth each proposed action and provide an opportunity to vote for or against each proposed action. A proposed action will be deemed to be approved by written or electric ballot when the number of votes cast by ballot equals or exceeds any quorum required to be present at a meeting authorizing the action, and the number of approvals equals or exceeds the number of votes that would be required to approve the matter at a meeting at which the total number of votes cast was the same as the number of votes cast by ballot. The Board must provide Owners with at least 10 days' notice as required by ORS 94.647(2)(b) before written ballots are mailed or otherwise delivered. If, at least three days before ballots are scheduled to be mailed or otherwise distributed, at least 10 percent of the Owners petition the Board requesting secrecy procedures, a written ballot must be accompanied by a secrecy envelope, a return identification envelope to be signed by the Owner, and instructions for making and returning the ballot. If electronic ballots are used, the electronic ballot must be secret. Written ballots that are returned in secrecy envelopes may not be examined or counted before the deadline for returning ballots has passed. An electronic ballot is effective when it is electronically transmitted to the address, location, or system designated by the Board of Directors for that purpose.

Notwithstanding which rules of order are adopted, the President will be entitled to vote on all matters, not merely to break a tie vote. A tie vote does not constitute a majority or approval of any motion or resolution. Article 4 BOARD OF DIRECTORS 4.1 Number and Qualification. The Board will be composed of three persons, all of whom must be an Owner or a co-owner of a Lot; however, if a Lot is owned by more than one owner, only one owner of that Lot may serve on the Board of Directors at any one time.

At the Turnover Meeting of the Association, the term of office of two Directors will be fixed for two years. The term of office of one Director will be fixed at one year. Should the number of Directors serving on the Board be increased, the same sequential election terms will apply as nearly as is practicable. Upon expiration of the initial term of office of each respective Director, the Director's successor will be elected to serve a term of two years. The Directors will hold office until their successors have been elected and hold their first meeting. At the Turnover Meeting, upon agreement by vote of the Owners, the Owners may elect Directors by using a ballot that permits each Owner to vote for three nominees. In that event, the two nominees receiving the highest number of votes will be the two-year Directors and the nominee receiving the next highest number of votes will be the one- year Director. 4.7 Vacancies. Vacancies on the Board caused by any reason other than the removal of a Director by a vote of the Association will be filled for the balance of the term of each directorship by vote of a majority of the remaining Directors, even though they may constitute less than a quorum. Each person so elected will be a Director until a successor is elected upon expiration of the term for which the person was elected to serve by the other Directors. 4.8 Removal of Directors. At any legal annual or special meeting (not including actions proposed to be taken by written ballot without a meeting), any one or more of the Directors may be removed with or without cause, by a majority vote of the total voting power of the Owners, and a successor may be then and there elected to fill the vacancy thus created; however, the notice of meeting must specifically indicate that the removal of one or more named Directors is an agenda item for the meeting. Any Director whose removal has been proposed by the Owners must be given an opportunity to be heard at the meeting. 4.9 Organizational Meeting. The first meeting of a newly elected Board must be held within 10 days of election at a place fixed by the Directors at the Association meeting at which the Directors were elected, and no notice will be necessary to the newly elected Directors in order to hold the meeting legally, as long as a majority of the newly elected Directors are present. 4.10 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board may be held at such time and place as determined, from time to time, by a majority of the Directors. Regular meetings of the Board may be called by the President on at least three days' notice to each Director, given personally or by mail, telephone, e-mail, or facsimile, Page 9 - Bylaws for Garden View Place which notice must state the time, place (as hereinabove provided), and purpose of the meeting. 4.11 Special Meetings.

At all meetings of the Board, a majority of the existing Directors will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the acts of the majority of the Directors will be the acts of the Board. If quorum requirements are not met at any meeting of the Board, the majority of those present may adjourn the meeting from time to time. At any such adjourned meeting, any business that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called may be transacted without further notice. 4.14 Board Meetings Open to All Association Members. Except for executive sessions, all meetings of the Board will be open to any and all Members of the Association; however, no Association Member will have a right to participate in the Board's meetings unless the Member is also a member of the Board. The President will have authority to exclude any Association Member who disrupts the proceedings at a meeting of the Board. At the discretion of the Board, the following matters may be considered in executive sessions: (a) consultation with legal counsel concerning rights and duties of the Association regarding existing or potential litigation or criminal matters; (b) personnel matters, including salary negotiations and employee discipline; (c) negotiations of contracts with third parties; (d) collection of assessments; and (e) any other matters permitted by the PCA. Except in the case of an emergency, the Board must vote in an open meeting whether to meet in executive session. If the Board votes to meet in executive session, the presiding officer of the Board must state the general nature of the action to be considered, as precisely as possible, and when and under what circumstances the deliberations can be disclosed to Owners. The statement, motion, or decision to meet in executive session must be included in the minutes of the meeting. A contract or an action considered in executive session does not become effective unless the Board, following the executive session, reconvenes in open meeting and votes on the contract or action, which must be reasonably identified in the open meeting and included in the minutes.

For other than emergency meetings, notice of special Board meetings must be mailed to each Owner at least seven days before the meeting by first-class mail, or at least three days before the meeting by hand -delivery to each Lot Owner's address or by facsimile transmission.

For any changed time or place, the notice requirements for special meetings will apply. 4.16 Emergency Meetings.

All Owners must pay assessments imposed by the Association to meet all the Association's general common expenses, as more particularly set forth in the Declaration. Assessments will be payable on a periodic basis, not more frequently than monthly, as determined by the Board. Declarant (before turnover) and the Board (after turnover) may, but will not be required to, impose interest or a service charge for late installment payments or allow a discount for payment of the annual assessment or any installment in advance. 6.2 Investment of Reserve Account Funds. Assessments paid into Reserve Accounts must be kept with a safe and responsible depository and must be accounted for separately. If invested, the obligation or security must be fully guaranteed as to principal by the United States of America or one of its agencies. Assessments paid into the Reserve Accounts are the property of the Association and are not refundable to sellers of Lots. However, nothing contained herein will prevent sellers of Lots from treating their outstanding allocable share of Reserve Accounts as a separate or reimbursable item in a sales agreement. No Owner will have any individual rights in any of these reserves. 6.3 Initial Assessment. The amount of the initial assessment due from Lot owners will be determined by Declarant. The amount of the annual assessment thereafter will be subject to review and modification by the Board of Directors. 6.3.2 Procedures. If Declarant or any other person pays all of the operating expenses of the Association or subsidizes the expenses, the assessment will be reduced by that amount, but will not be reduced to a sum less than the total amount of the replacement reserve items. Declarant must give 10 days' written notice to Owners before their obligation to pay the full assessment begins. Thereafter, each owner, including Declarant or the other person, must pay the assessments to the Association. In the event that Declarant has collected initial assessments from Lot purchasers at closing and thereafter elects to pay or subsidize the operating expenses, thereby causing the Page 12 - Bylaws for Garden View Place amount of the assessment to be reduced, the one-time initial contribution collected from Lot purchasers must be held by Declarant in a separate Association account. On the date on which Lot owners are required to pay full assessments, the aggregate sums held in the separate account must be deposited in the Association's general account to be used as working capital. 6.3.3 Temporary Reduction of Assessment Amount. If the Association expenses are temporarily less than projected by Declarant because some or most of the Lots are not yet sold or occupied, Declarant will have the authority to reduce temporarily the amount of the assessment to reflect the lower expenses of the project. 6.4 Income Tax Returns; Determination of Fiscal Year. 6.4.1 Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Association will be the calendar year unless otherwise determined by the Board. 6.4.2 Tax Returns. The Board, in its sole discretion, will determine the manner in which all necessary income tax returns are filed and of selecting any and all persons to prepare the tax returns. 6.5 Statement of Assessments. 6.5.1 The Association must provide, within 10 business days of receipt of a written request from an owner, a written statement that provides: 6.5.1.1 The amount of assessments due from the owner and unpaid at the time the request was received, including (a) regular and special assessments; (b) fines and other charges; (c) accrued interest; and (d) late payment charges. 6.5.1.2 The percentage rate at which interest accrues on assessments that are not paid when due. 6.5.1.3 The percentage rate used to calculate the charges for late payment or the amount of a fixed charge for late payment. 6.5.2 The Association is not required to comply with Section 6.5.1 if the Association has commenced litigation by filing a complaint against the owner and the litigation is pending when the statement would otherwise be due. 6.6 Default. Failure by an Owner to pay any assessment of the Association is a default by the Owner of the Owner's obligations under these Bylaws and the Declaration. The Association will be entitled to the remedies set forth in the Declaration. Page 13 - Bylaws for Garden View Place 6.7 Maintenance and Repair. 6.7.1 Lots.

Article 12 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS The Association must indemnify any Director, officer, employee, or agent who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding. Indemnification will be made regardless of whether the action is civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by the Association) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association as a Director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and Page 17 - Bylaws for Garden View Place reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the suit, action, or proceeding.

The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or with a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not of itself create a presumption that a person did not act in good faith and in a manner that the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Association, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful. Payment under this Article 12 may be made during the pendency of the claim, action, suit, or proceeding as and when incurred, subject only to the right of the Association to reimbursement of the payment from the person, should it be proven at a later time that the person had no right to the payment.

No trade, craft, business, profession, commercial activity, or similar activity of any kind may be conducted on any Lot, and no goods, equipment, vehicles, materials, or supplies used in connection with any trade, service, or business may be kept or stored on any Lot.

Each Owner other than Declarant must obtain the ARC's prior approval of all landscaping plans before commencing installation of any landscaping. Landscaping for all portions of the Lot must commence within 60 days after final building Page 6 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place inspection by the local government jurisdiction and must be completed within six months after the inspection. This section 4.2 applies to Lots with finished Homes being held for sale as well as to other Lots. 4.3 Maintenance of Lots and Homes. Each Owner must maintain the Owner's Lot and all improvements thereon in a clean and attractive condition, in good repair, and in such fashion as not to create a fire hazard. Such maintenance includes, without limitation, maintenance of windows, doors, garage doors, walks, patios, chimneys, and other exterior improvements and glass surfaces. All repainting or restaining and exterior remodeling will be subject to prior review and approval by the ARC. Each Owner must repair damage caused to the Owner's Lot or improvements located thereon by fire, flood, storm, earthquake, riot, vandalism, or other causes within a reasonable period. Insurance purchased by the Association may be used to effect such repairs, subject to the Association's Board of Directors'right to adjust the losses with the Association's insurance carrier. 4.4 Rental of Homes. An Owner may rent or lease the Owner's Home or a portion thereof, provided that the following conditions are met: 4.4.1 Written Rental Agreements Required. The Owner and the tenant enter into a written rental or lease agreement specifying that (a) the tenant is subject to all provisions of the Declaration, Bylaws, and Rules and Regulations, and (b) a failure to comply with any provision of the Declaration, Bylaws, and Rules and Regulations constitutes a default under the rental or lease agreement; 4.4.2 Minimum Rental Period. The period of the rental or lease is not less than 30 days; 4.4.3 Tenant Must Be Given Documents.

Owners whose pets cause any inconvenience or unpleasantness to other Owners must take all steps reasonably necessary to prevent recurrence thereof, and Owners whose pets damage other Owners' Lots or personal property must reimburse the other Owners for reasonable costs actually incurred by the other Owners in repairing the damage. An Owner must ensure that the Owner's dog is leashed when on the Property and outside of the Owner's Lot.

No noxious, harmful, or offensive activities may be carried out on any Lot or Common Area. Nor may anything be done or placed on any Lot or Common Area that interferes with or jeopardizes the enjoyment of, or that is a source of annoyance to, the Owner or other Occupants. 4.7 Parking. The Private Road may be used only for temporary parking, loading and unloading and for vehicles providing maintenance for the Association. Vehicles parked on the Private Road for loading and unloading may not be parked for more than two hours.

No Owner may permit any vehicle that is in a state of disrepair or that is not currently licensed to be abandoned or to remain parked on the Common Area at any time and may not permit them on a Lot for a period in excess of 48 hours. A vehicle will be deemed in a "state of disrepair" when the Board reasonably determines that its presence offends the occupants of the neighborhood. If an Owner fails to remove such a vehicle within five days following the date on which the Association mails or delivers to the Owner a notice directing the removal, the Association may have the vehicle removed from the Property and charge the expense of the removal to the Owner as a Reimbursement Assessment, which may be collected and enforced as any other assessments imposed under the Declaration and Bylaws. 4.9 Signs. No signs may be erected or maintained on any Lot, except that not more than one "For Sale" or "For Rent" sign placed by the Owner or by a licensed real estate agent, not exceeding 24 inches high and 36 inches long, may be temporarily displayed on any Lot. The restrictions contained in this section 4.9 do not prohibit the temporary placement of "political" signs on any Lot by the Owner or Occupant. However, political signs must be removed within three days after the election day pertaining to the subject of the sign. Real estate signs must be removed within three days after the sale closing date. 4.10 Rubbish and Trash. No Lot or part of the Common Area may be used as a dumping ground for trash or rubbish of any kind.

Yard raking$, dirt, and other material resulting from landscaping work may not be dumped onto streets, the Common Area, or any other Lots. If an Owner fails to remove any trash, rubbish, garbage, yard rakings, or any similar materials from any Lot, or the Common Area where deposited by the Owner or the Occupants of the Owner's Lot after notice has been given by the Board to the Owner, the Association may have the materials removed and charge the expense of the removal to the Owner. Such a charge will constitute a Reimbursement Assessment, which may be collected and enforced as any other assessments imposed under the Declaration and Bylaws. 4.11 Service Facilities. Service facilities (garbage containers, fuel tanks, clotheslines, etc.) must be screened so that the facilities are not visible at any time from the street or a neighboring property. All telephone, electrical, cable television, and other utility installations must be placed underground in conformance with applicable law and subject to approval by the ARC. 4.12 Antennas and Satellite Dishes. Except as otherwise provided by law or this section, no exterior antennas, satellite dishes, microwave, aerial, tower, or other devices for the transmission or reception of television, radio, or other forms of sound or electromagnetic radiation may be erected, constructed, or placed on any Lot. With prior written consent from the ARC, exterior satellite dishes or antennas with a surface diameter of one meter or less and antennas designed to receive television broadcast signals only may be placed on any Lot if they are not visible from the Private Road and are screened from neighboring Lots. The Board or ARC may adopt reasonable rules and regulations governing the installation, safety, placement, and screening of such antennas, satellite dishes, and other transmission devices. Such rules may not unreasonably delay or increase the cost of installation, maintenance, or use or preclude reception of a signal of acceptable quality. (The ARC, in its sole discretion, may determine what constitutes a signal of acceptable quality.) Such rules may prohibit installation of exterior satellite dishes or antennas if signals of acceptable quality can be received by placing antennas inside a Home without causing an unreasonable delay or cost increase. The foregoing restriction and the authority of the ARC in this matter are subject to any regulations issued by the Federal Communications Commission or any other applicable governmental authority. 4.13 Exterior Lighting or Noise -Making Devices.

Page 9 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place 4.14 Basketball Hoops. No Owner may install a permanent basketball hoop on any Lot without the ARC's prior approval. The ARC may, in its discretion, prohibit such basketball hoops or impose permitted hours of use for such basketball hoops. Basketball hoops are prohibited in the Common Area and on any Lot if the area of play is intended to be the street or any Common Area. 4.15 Grades, Slopes, and Drainage. There may be no interference with the established drainage patterns or systems over or through any Lot that affects any other Lot or Common Area or any real property outside the Property unless adequate alternative provision is made for proper drainage and is approved by the ARC before any such work. The term established drainage means the drainage swales, conduits, inlets, and outlets designed and constructed for Declarant. 4.16 Tree -Cutting Restrictions. No tree the diameter of which is six inches or more may be removed from any Lot without the prior approval of the ARC unless it is diseased, poses an immediate danger to persons or property, or is within 10 feet of an existing or proposed building or five feet of a paved surface. However, the ARC has unfettered authority, but not the obligation, to cause the Association to trim or top trees, shrubs, or hedges located on any Lot that is creating a nuisance, is damaging, or is a threat to Commonly Maintained Property or that increases the cost of insurance for the Association. 4.17 Damage or Destruction to Home or Lot. If all or any portion of a Lot or Home is damaged by fire or other casualty, the Owner must either (a) restore the damaged improvements or (b) remove all damaged improvements, including foundations, and leave the Lot in a clean and safe condition. Any restoration proceeding under (a) in this section 4.16 must be performed so that the improvements are in substantially the same condition that they were in before the damage, unless the Owner complies with the provisions of Article 6. The Owner must commence such work within 60 days after the damage occurs and must complete the work within six months thereafter. 4.18 Right of Maintenance and Entry by Association. If an Owner fails to perform maintenance, repair, or both that the Owner is obligated to perform under this Declaration, and if the Board determines, after notice, that the maintenance, repair, or both is necessary to preserve the attractiveness, quality, nature, value, or any combination thereof of the Property, the Board may cause the maintenance, repair, or both to be performed and may enter any Lot whenever entry is necessary in connection with the performance thereof. An Owner may request, and the Board will conduct, a hearing on the Page 10 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place matter. The Owner's request must be in writing delivered within five days after receipt of the notice, and the hearing must be conducted within not less than five days nor more than 20 days after the request for a hearing is received. Entry must be made with as little inconvenience to an Owner as practicable and only after advance written notice of not less than 48 hours, except in emergency situations.

The Board from time to time may adopt, modify, or revoke the Rules and Regulations governing the conduct of persons and the operation and use of Lots and the Common Area as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure the peaceful and orderly use and enjoyment of the Property and the administration and operation of the Association. A copy of the Rules and Regulations, upon adoption, and a copy of each amendment, modification, or revocation thereof, will be delivered promptly by the Board to each Owner and will be binding on all Owners and occupants of all Lots on the date of delivery or actual notice thereof.

The Association must represent the interest of all Owners in any negotiations, suit, action, or settlement in connection with such matters. 5.7 Damage or Destruction of Common Area. If all or any portion of the Common Area is damaged or destroyed by an Owner or any of the Owner's guests, Occupants, tenants, licensees, agents, or members of the Owner's family in a manner that would subject the Owner to liability for the damage under Oregon law, the Owner hereby authorizes the Association to repair the damage. The Association must repair the damage and restore the area in workmanlike manner as originally constituted or as may be modified or altered subsequently by the Association in the discretion of the Board. Reasonable costs incurred in connection with effecting the repairs will become a special assessment on the Lot and against the Owner who caused or is responsible for the damage. 5.8 Power of Association to Sell, Dedicate, or Transfer Common Area.

Article 6 ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMITTEE 6.1 Architectural Review. No improvement may be commenced, erected, placed, or altered on any Lot until the construction plans and specifications showing the nature, shape, heights, materials, colors, and proposed location of the improvement have been submitted to and approved in writing by the ARC.

The ARC must render its written decision approving or denying each application submitted to it within 15 business days (not including Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays) after its receipt of all materials required with respect to the application. If the ARC fails to render its written decision within 30 days of its receipt of all required materials or request an extension, the application will be deemed approved. The ARC is entitled to request one or more extensions of time, not to exceed 45 days. In the event of any extension requests, if the ARC does not render a written decision within 15 days after the expiration of the extension(s), the application will be deemed approved. However, the applicant may agree to further extensions to allow the applicant to complete or supplement the application. Page 14 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place 6.6 Discretion. The ARC, in its sole discretion, may withhold consent to any proposed work if the ARC finds that the proposed work would be inappropriate for the particular Lot or incompatible with the design standards that the ARC intends for the Property, as long as the ARC complies with ORS 94.762 regarding electric vehicle charging stations. The ARC may consider siting, shape, size, color, design, height, solar access, or other effects on the enjoyment of other Lots or the Common Area, and any other factors that it reasonably believes to be relevant in determining whether to consent to any proposed work. 6.7 Nonwaiver. Consent by the ARC to any matter proposed to it or within its jurisdiction will not constitute precedent or waiver impairing its right to withhold approval of any similar matter thereafter proposed or submitted to it for consent. 6.8 Appeal. After Declarant has assigned the right to appoint ARC members to the Board under section 6.2, any Owner adversely impacted by ARC action may appeal the action to the Board. The appealing Owner must submit to the Board a written notice of appeal, setting forth specific objections or mitigating circumstances justifying the appeal, within 10 days after the ARC's action. The Board must issue a final, conclusive decision within 45 days after receipt of the notice, and the decision will be final and binding on the appealing Owner and the ARC. However, the Board must make reasonable efforts to reach a decision within 20 days. If the Board is serving as the ARC, then the appeal will be deemed a request for reconsideration. 6.9 Effective Period of Consent. The ARC's consent to any proposed work will automatically expire three months after issuance unless construction of the project has been commenced or the Owner has applied for and received an extension of time from the ARC. 6.10 Determination of Compliance. The ARC may inspect, from time to time, all work performed and determine whether it is in substantial compliance with the approval granted. If the ARC finds that the work was not performed in substantial compliance with the approval granted, or if the ARC finds that the approval required was not obtained, the ARC must notify the Owner in writing of the noncompliance. The notice must specify the particulars of noncompliance and must require the Owner to remedy the noncompliance. 6.11 Noncompliance. If the ARC determines that an Owner has not constructed an improvement consistent with the specifications of an ARC approval or has constructed an improvement without obtaining ARC approval, sends a notice of noncompliance to the Owner, and the Owner fails to commence diligently remedying the noncompliance in Page 15 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place accordance with the notice, then, effective at 5:00 p.m. on the third day after issuance of the notice, the ARC must provide notice of a hearing to consider the Owner's continuing noncompliance. The hearing must be set not more than 30 days from the date on which the notice of noncompliance was issued. At the hearing, if the ARC finds that there is no valid reason for the continuing noncompliance, the ARC must determine the estimated costs of achieving compliance and may issue a fine against the noncomplying Owner for that amount. The ARC also must require the Owner to remedy the noncompliance within 10 days after the date of the ARC's determination. If the Owner does not comply with the ARC's ruling within the 10 -day period or any extension thereof granted by the ARC, at its sole discretion, the ARC may remove the noncomplying improvement, remedy the noncompliance, record a notice of noncompliance in the county deed records, or take any combination of those actions. The costs of any such action will be assessed against the Owner as a Reimbursement Assessment either before or after any remedial action is taken. 6.12 Liability. Neither the ARC nor any member thereof will be liable to any Owner, Occupant, or builder for any damage, loss, or prejudice suffered or claimed on account of any action or failure to act of the ARC or a member thereof, as long as the ARC or the member has, in accordance with its or his or her actual knowledge, acted in good faith. 6.13 Estoppel Certificate. Within 15 working days after the ARC's receipt of a written request from an Owner and the ARC's receipt of payment of a reasonable fee fixed by the ARC to cover costs, the ARC must provide the Owner with a certificate executed by the chairperson or other authorized member of the ARC certifying with respect to any Lot owned by the Owner that, as of the date thereof either (a) all improvements made or done on the Lot comply with this Declaration, or (b) the improvements do not so comply, in which event, the certificate must also identify the noncomplying improvements and set forth with particularity the nature of the noncompliance. The Owner and the Owner's heirs, devisees, successors, and assigns will be entitled to rely on the certificate with respect to the matters set forth therein. The certificate will be conclusive as among Declarant, the ARC, the Association, all Owners, and all persons deriving any interest through any of them. 6.14 Fees. The ARC may charge applicants a reasonable application fee and additional costs incurred or expected to be incurred by the ARC to retain architects, attorneys, engineers, and other consultants to advise the ARC concerning any aspect of the applications or compliance with any appropriate architectural criteria or standards, Page 16 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place including, without limitation, those pertinent to house siting and height. The fees will be collectible as assessments under Article 10. 6.15 Declarant and Successor Exempt from ARC. The Declarant and its successor to all of the unsold Lots are exempt from the requirement to submit to and have plans approved by the ARC. However, the Declarant and its successor are not exempt from the provisions of Article 4 of this Declaration, except as set forth in section 4.23. Article 7 MEMBERSHIP IN THE ASSOCIATION 7.1 Members. Each Owner is a member of the Association. See Section 1.15. Membership in the Association is appurtenant to, and may not be separated from, ownership of any Lot.

Each Owner may cast the Owner's vote in person, by written ballot, by electronic ballot if the Board of Directors so elects, or by a proxy executed by the Owner. An Owner may not revoke a proxy given under this section 7.2 except by actual notice of revocation to the person presiding over a meeting of the Association.

The Association has two classes of voting members: 7.3.1 Class A. Class A members include all Owners of Lots other than Declarant, and each Class A member is entitled to one vote for each Lot owned with respect to all matters on which Owners are entitled to vote. 7.3.2 Class B.

The initial annual assessment will be determined by Declarant and will be prorated on a monthly basis at the time of the closing of the first sale from Declarant. For proration purposes, any portion of a month will count as a full month. Annual assessments will be payable on a periodic basis, not more frequently than monthly, as determined by the Board. The fiscal year will be the calendar year unless another year is adopted by vote of the Association members. 10.4.1 Budgeting. Each year the Board will prepare, approve, and make available to each Member a pro forma operating statement (budget) containing (a) estimated revenue and expenses on an accrual basis; (b) the amount of the total cash reserves of the Association currently available for replacement or major repair of the Common Area and Commonly Maintained Property and for contingencies; (c) an itemized estimate for the remaining life of improvements, and the methods of funding to defray repair, replacement, or additions to major components of improvements, as provided in section 10.6.2; and (d) a general statement setting forth the procedures used by the Board in the calculation and establishment of reserves to defray the costs of repair, replacement, or additions to major components of the Common Area and the Commonly Maintained Property. Notwithstanding that budgeting will be done on an accrual basis, the Association's books will be kept on a cash basis and the Association will be a cash basis Page 20 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place taxpayer, unless applicable governmental regulations require otherwise. For the first fiscal year, the budget must be approved by the Board no later than the date on which annual assessments are scheduled to commence. Thereafter, the Board must annually prepare and approve the budget and distribute a copy or summary thereof to each Member, together with written notice of the amount of the annual assessments to be levied against each Owner's Lot, within 30 days after adoption of the budget. 10.4.2 Allocation of Assessments. Except for Reimbursement Assessments, the total amount in the budget will be charged equally against all Lots as annual assessments. 10.4.3 Nonwaiver of Assessments. If before the expiration of any fiscal year the Association fails to fix annual assessments for the next fiscal year, the annual assessments established for the preceding year will continue until a new annual assessment is fixed. 10.5 Special Assessments. The Board or the Owners have the power to levy special assessments against an Owner or all Owners in the following manner for the following purposes: 10.5.1 Correct Deficit. To correct a deficit in the operating budget, by vote of a majority of the Board; 10.5.2 Special Obligations of an Owner. To collect amounts due to the Association from an Owner for breach of the Owner's obligations under this Declaration, the Bylaws, or the Rules and Regulations, by vote of a majority of the Board; 10.5.3 Repairs. To collect additional amounts necessary to make repairs or renovations to the Common Area or Commonly Maintained Property if sufficient funds are not available from the operating budget or replacement reserve accounts, by vote of a majority of the Board; or 10.5.4 Capital Improvements. To make capital acquisitions, additions, or improvements, by vote of at least 80 percent of all votes allocated to the Lots. 10.5.5 Reimbursement Assessments. The Association must levy an assessment against any Owner and the Owner's Lot if a failure to comply with this Declaration, Bylaws, Architectural Standards, or any Rules and Regulations has (a) necessitated an expenditure of monies by the Association to effect compliance or (b) resulted in the imposition of a fine or penalty against the Owner or the Owner's Lot (a "Reimbursement Assessment'. A Reimbursement Assessment is due and payable to the Association when levied. A Reimbursement Assessment may not be levied by the Page 21 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place Association except on at least 10 days' written notice to the Owner being assessed. If, within the 10 -day period, the Owner makes a written request to the Board for a hearing, a hearing must be held. Upon request for a hearing, the Board must conduct it not less than 10 nor more than 30 days after the request by the Owner, and must make its decision within not more than 30 days after the hearing is held. If a notice has been previously given, and the hearing has already been held or waived (in writing or by the Owner's failure to appear) for the violation resulting in the Reimbursement Assessment, no additional notice and hearing is required before levying the Reimbursement Assessment. 10.6 Accounts. 10.6.1 Types of Accounts. Assessments collected by the Association will be deposited into at least two separate accounts with a bank, which accounts will be clearly designated as (a) the Current Operating Account and (b) the Reserve Account. The Board must deposit those portions of the assessments collected for current maintenance and operation into the Current Operating Account and must deposit those portions of the assessments collected as reserves for replacement and deferred maintenance of capital improvements into the Reserve Account. Withdrawal of funds from the Association's Reserve Account requires the signatures of either two Directors or one Director and an officer of the Association who is not a Director. In its books and records, the Association must account separately for operating expenses relating to the Common Area and Commonly Maintained Property and operating expenses relating to all other matters, as well as for necessary reserves relating to the Common Area [and Commonly Maintained Property] and necessary reserves relating to all other matters. 10.6.2 Reserve Account. Declarant must establish a Reserve Account, in the name of the Association, which must be kept separate from all other funds held by the Association. The Association will pay out of the Reserve Account only those costs that are attributable to the maintenance, repair, or replacement of Common Area property [and Commonly Maintained Property] that normally requires replacement, in whole or in part, within one to 30 years and not for regular or periodic maintenance and expenses. No funds collected for the Reserve Account may be used for ordinary current maintenance and operation purposes. 10.6.2.1 Calculation of Reserve Assessment; Reserve Study. The Board of Directors of the Association must conduct as often as necessary, but no longer than every 5 years, a reserve study, or review and update an existing study, of the Common Area [and Commonly Maintained Property] to determine the Reserve Account Page 22 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place requirements. A Reserve Account must be established for those items of the Common Area [and Commonly Maintained Property] all or part of which will normally require replacement in more than one and less than 30 years for maintenance, repair, or replacement of other items as may be required under the Declaration or Bylaws or that the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may deem appropriate. The Reserve Account need not include items that could reasonably be funded from operating assessments. The reserve study must include (a) identification of all items for which reserves are required to be established; (b) the estimated remaining useful life of each item as of the date of the reserve study; (c) the estimated cost of maintenance, repair, or replacement of each item at the end of its useful life; and (d) a 30 -year plan with regular and adequate contributions, adjusted by estimated inflation and interest earned on reserves, to meet the maintenance, repair, and replacement schedule. The Reserve Account assessment must be allocated according to section 10.4.2. 10.6.2.2 Investment of Reserve Account. Nothing in this section 10.6 prohibits the prudent investment of Reserve Account funds, subject to any constraints imposed by the Oregon Planned Community Act, the Board, the Bylaws, or the Rules and Regulations. 10.6.2.3 Refunds of Assessments. Assessments paid into the Reserve Account are the property of the Association and are not refundable to sellers or Owners of Lots. Sellers or Owners of Lots may treat their outstanding share of the Reserve Account's balance as a separate item in the sales contract providing for the conveyance of their Lot. 10.6.3 Current Operating Account. All costs other than those to be paid from the Reserve Account under section 10.6.2 may be paid from the Current Operating Account. 10.7 Default in Payment of Assessments; Enforcement of Liens. 10.7.1 Personal Obligation. Any assessment properly imposed under this Declaration or the Bylaws is the joint and several personal obligation of all Owners of the Lot to which the assessment pertains. In a voluntary conveyance (i.e., one other than through foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure), the grantees will be jointly and severally liable with the grantors for all Association assessments imposed through the recording date of the instrument effecting the conveyance. A suit for a money judgment may be initiated by the Association to recover the assessments without either waiving or foreclosing the Association's lien. Page 23 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place 10.7.2 Association Lien. The Association has a lien against each Lot for any assessment of any type provided for by this Declaration or the Bylaws or installment thereof that is delinquent. The lien will accumulate all future assessments or installments, interest, late fees, penalties, fines, attorney fees (whether or not suit or action is instituted), actual administrative costs, and other appropriate costs properly chargeable to an Owner by the Association, until such amounts are fully paid. Recording of the Declaration constitutes record notice and perfection of the lien. The lien may be foreclosed at any time in accordance with the Oregon Planned Community Act. The Association must record a notice of a claim of lien for assessments and other charges in the deed records of Lane County, Oregon, before any suit to foreclose may be filed. The lien of the Association will be superior to all other liens and encumbrances except property taxes and assessments; any first mortgage, deed of trust, or land sale contract recorded before the Association's notice of lien; and any mortgage or deed of trust granted to an institutional lender that is recorded before the Association's notice of lien. 10.7.3 Interest, Fines, Late Fees, and Penalties. The Board, in its reasonable discretion, may from time to time adopt resolutions to set the rate of interest and to impose late fees, fines, and penalties on delinquent assessments or for violations of the provisions of this Declaration, the Bylaws, Architectural Standards, and the Rules and Regulations adopted by the Board or the ARC. The adoption of such impositions must be communicated to all Owners in writing not less than 30 days before the effective date by a notice mailed to the assessment billing address of each Owner. The impositions will be considered assessments that are lienable and collectible in the same manner as any other assessments; however, fines or penalties for violation of this Declaration, the Bylaws, or the Rules and Regulations, other than late fees, fines, or interest arising from an Owner's failure to pay regular, special, or reimbursement assessments may not be imposed against an Owner or the Owner's Lot until the Owner is given an opportunity for a hearing as elsewhere provided herein. 10.7.4 Acceleration of Assessments. If an Owner is delinquent in payment of any assessment or installment on any assessment, the Association, on not less than 10 days' written notice to the Owner, may accelerate the due date of the full annual assessment for that fiscal year and all future installments of any special assessments. 10.7.5 Association's Right to Rents; Receiver. In any foreclosure suit by the Association with respect to a lien described in section 10.7.2, the Association is Page 24 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place entitled to collect reasonable rent from the defaulting Owner for the use of the Owner's Lot and is entitled to the appointment of a receiver. Article 11 GENERAL PROVISIONS 11.1 Records. The Board must preserve and maintain minutes of the meetings of the Association, the Board, and any committees. The Board must also keep detailed and accurate financial records, including individual assessment accounts of Owners, the balance sheet, and income and expense statements. Individual assessment accounts must designate the name and address of the Owner or Owners of the Lot, the amount of each assessment as it becomes due, the amounts paid on the account, and the balance due on the assessments. The minutes of the Association, the Board, and Board committees, and the Association's financial records must be maintained in the State of Oregon and reasonably available for review and copying by the Owners. A reasonable charge may be imposed by the Association for providing copies. 11.2 Indemnification of Directors, Officers, Employees, and Agents. The Association must indemnify any Director, officer, employee, or agent who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by the Association) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association as a Director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the suit, action, or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner that the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Association, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not of itself create a presumption that a person did not act in good faith and in a manner that the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Association, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful. Payment under this clause may be made during the pendency of the claim, action, suit, or proceeding as and when incurred, subject only to the right of the Association to Page 25 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place reimbursement of the payment from the person, should it be proven at a later time that the person had no right to the payments. All persons who are ultimately held liable for their actions on behalf of the Association as a Director, officer, employee, or agent will have a right of contribution over and against all other Directors, officers, employees, or agents and members of the Association who participated with or benefited from the acts that created the liability. 11.3 Enforcement; Attorney Fees. The Association, the Owners, and any mortgagee holding an interest on a Lot have the right to enforce all of the covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, easements, liens, and charges now or hereinafter imposed by any of the provisions of this Declaration as may appertain specifically to such parties or Owners by any proceeding at law or in equity. Failure by either the Association or by any Owner or mortgagee to enforce any covenant, condition, or restriction herein contained will in no event be deemed a waiver of their right to do so thereafter. If suit or action is commenced to enforce the terms and provisions of this Declaration (including without limitations, suit or action for the collection of assessments), the prevailing party will be entitled to its actual administrative costs incurred because of a matter or event that is the subject of the suit or action, attorney fees and costs in the suit or action to be fixed by the trial court, and in the event of an appeal, the cost of the appeal, together with reasonable attorney fees, to be set by the appellate court. In addition thereto, the Association will be entitled to its reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in any enforcement activity or to collect delinquent assessments, together with the Association's actual administrative costs, whether or not suit or action is filed. 11.4 Severability. Invalidation of any one of these covenants, conditions, or restrictions by judgment or court order will not affect the other provisions hereof and the same will remain in full force and effect. 11.5 Duration. The covenants, conditions, and restrictions of this Declaration run with and bind the land for a term of 35 years from the date of this Declaration being recorded, after which time they will be automatically extended for successive periods of 10 years, unless rescinded by a vote of at least 75 percent of the Owners and 90 percent of the first mortgagees; however, amendments that do not constitute rescission of the planned community may be adopted as provided in section 11.6. 11.6 Amendment. Except as otherwise provided in section 11.5 or ORS 94.590, and the restrictions set forth elsewhere herein, this Declaration may be amended at any time by an instrument approved by not less than 75 percent of the total votes allocated to Page 26 - Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Garden View Place the Lots, without regard to the enhanced voting rights of the Class B Member. Any amendment must be executed, recorded, and certified as provided by law; however, no amendment of this Declaration will effect an amendment of the Bylaws or Articles without compliance with the provisions of those documents and the Oregon Nonprofit Corporation Act, and no amendment affecting the general plan of development or any other right of Declarant herein contained may be effected without the express written consent of Declarant or its successors and assigns, including, without limitation, amendment of this section 11.6. Furthermore, as long as there is Class B membership, any amendment to these Bylaws must be approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, whichever is applicable. 11.7 Release of Right of Control. Declarant may give up its right of control in writing at any time by notice to the Association. 11.5 Unilateral Amendment by Declarant. In addition to all other special rights of Declarant provided in this Declaration, Declarant may amend this Declaration in order to comply with the requirements of the Federal Housing Administration of the United States, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Government National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, any department, bureau, board, commission, or agency of the United States or the State of Oregon, or any other state in which the Lots are marketed and sold, or any corporation wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the United States or the State of Oregon, or such other state, the approval of which entity is required in order for it to insure, guarantee, or provide financing in connection with development of the Property and sale of Lots. Before the Turnover Meeting, no such amendment will require notice to or approval by any Class A member. 11.9 Resolution of Document Conflicts.
