RESTATEMENT OF A & A RULES - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

o Added a bullet regarding setbacks on corner lots: For corner lots, all Outdoor Kitchens and BBQ Backing must be setback 20 feet from the front lot line and 20 feet from the side lot line. o All prior attachments for Outdoor Kitchens were combined into one Exhibit (L).

• K. Lot Hardscape/Softscape - added in language when hardscape abuts hardscape and to accommodate "futures": o To enable future placement of sprinkler and electrical lines to the front of the lot, the A & A Committee may deny requests for hardscape installations that will directly adjoin the neighboring hardscape and may require a strip of removable softscape between the lots or require the placement of conduit under the hardscape for future water and electrical needs. • L. Lot Plantings - added in language under General Requirements to require all borders to be set in mortar: o Flowerbeds, hedges, and new trees must be enclosed by hard surface borders, such as concrete, brick, or stone, and must be in mortar. Wood or plastic border material is not allowed. The Association will not be responsible for damages to unprotected plantings damaged by mowing or trimming. o Also added in language regarding weed killer and weed barriers: Weed killers should not be used around palm trees. A weed barrier must be installed beneath any softscape or desertscape. A weed barrier is not required for the installation of artificial turf. o Added in clarification language for artificial turf installations: o Artificial turf is allowed on individual lots but is subject to a separate completed and approved Permit for Installation of Artificial Turf. o Artificial Turf cannot be installed under shade structures. o An eight inch (8”) mortared brick or concrete border, will be required whenever artificial turf abuts common area grass. • M. Lighting- Lot Illumination - revised several points under this item as follows: o When hardscape changes are made to a lot, the Owner must arrange for the lot number light fixture to be relocated as set forth below in 5.b. and replaced if necessary.
