Open Space Management Plan:
Intended Usage: The common open space areas of the project are intended for the
quiet enjoyment of the occupants within the development.
All sidewalks are intended for pedestrian traffic, shall be kept in good condition, and
accessible to the occupants and customers. Any significant 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 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

requirements, and to place a lien on the property if such dues are not paid, shall be

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
