Space Lot 7 would include natural areas intended to preserve existing trees and
wetlands areas, an improved and enlarged lake, a trail system and associated
landscape improvements.
All sidewalks and trails are intended for recreational pedestrian traffic, shall be kept

changes to the plan must be approved by the City Council

Association (POA). All property owners shall be required to be a member of the POA.
Dues assessments, required for the maintenance of the open space areas and other
POA activities, shall be mandatory.
The POA shall be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the protected
open space within the development. The expenses required to maintain the common
areas at a quality level shall be estimated annually by the POA Board, and dues shall
be determined and assessed on each property owner in an equitable fashion at such
a rate as necessary to maintain such a level of quality. Authority to enforce these
requirements, and to place a lien on the property if such dues are not paid, shall be
in the form of written Deed Restrictions and Covenants, agreed to by all property
owners at purchase, and shall run with the land.

assume responsibility for such maintenance and take corrective action, including the
provision of extended maintenance. The costs of such maintenance may be charged
to the POA or individual property owners that make up the POA, and may include
administrative costs and penalties which shall become a lien on all property in the
development.
