1. General Rules of Law to Apply.
Each wall which is built
as a part of the original construction of the homes upon the properties
and
placed on or immediately adjacent to the dividing line between the lots
owned
by different persons shall constitute a party wall, and, to the extent
not inconsistent
with the provisions of this Article, the general rules of law regarding
party
walls and liability for property damage due to negligence of willful
acts or
omissions shall apply thereto.
2. Sharing of Repair and Maintenance.
The Cost of reasonable
repair and maintenance of party wall shall be shared equally by the
owners
whose lots abut such wall.
3. Destruction, by fire or Other
Casualty. If a party Wall
is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, an owner who has
used the
wall may re-store it, and if the other owners thereafter make use of
the wall,
they shall contribute to the cost of restoration thereof in proportion
to such
use, with-out prejudice, however, the right of any such owners to call
for a
larger contribution from the others under any rule of law regarding
liability
for negligent or willful acts of omissions. The word "use" as
referred to herein means ownership of a dwelling unit or other
structure which
incorporates such wall or any part thereof.
4. Weatherproofing. Notwithstanding
any other provision of
this Article, an owner who by his negligent or willful act causes the
party
wall to be exposed to the elements shall bear the whole cost of
furnishing the
necessary protection against such elements.

used or
designated for use by another lot owner, an easement for the
encroachment and
for the maintenance of same is granted and reserved and shall exist,
and he

unit
becomes partially or totally destroyed or in need of repair or
replacement,
mutual and reciprocal easements are granted and reserved upon the

ARTICLE V. ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL
COMMITTEE
1. Purpose. It is desirable to
maintain uniform standards of
design, quality of workmanship and landscaping for the homes to be
built and
maintained in Timberhill Southeast Second Addition. Uniform standards
of
design, quality of workmanship and landscaping protect the interests of
each
owner in maintaining and increasing the value and enjoyment of that
owner's
lot. It is not, however, feasible to set forth a comprehensive list of
requirements
for constructing and maintaining homes in this development. An
Architectural
Review Committee is, therefore, established, the purpose of which is to
review
and approve the design, quality of workmanship and landscaping for all
homes to
be built in Timberhill Southeast Second Addition. The Architectural
Review
Committee will make the determinations based on the following policy
guidelines
as well as the specific restrictive covenants set forth in this
declaration.
2. Policy Guidelines.
a. Nature of Timberhill Southeast
Second Addition lends
itself to quality designed and constructed homes, constructed by
builders who
have demonstrated their ability and willingness to design and construct
quality
homes.
b. It is of benefit to each owner
that each lot in the
development be developed as soon as reasonably possible.
c. That uniformity of construction,
styles, and construction
materials is desired to maintain the quality of the development.
d. That well-landscaped lots will add
significantly to the
value of each and every owner's interest in lots in the development.
e. That unusual fences, out buildings
and other additions
may tend to detract from the enjoyment and the value of each owner's
interest
rive to approve or disapprove any application for a period of (not
ledgible) days
after it has been submitted in writing,
In duplicate, to the Chairman of the Committee or his designated
representatives, said application will be deemed to have been approved
if the
said Chairman has signed and dated said application, acknowledging
receipt
thereof on a copy submitted with the original. The original members of
the
Committee shall serve for three (3) years. New members shall be elected
for a
term of three (3) years by majority vote of the members of the
Architectural
Review Committee. If any member of the Committee is unable or unwilling
to act,
the remaining members shall elect a successor to serve out the
unexpired term.
No member of the Architectural Review
Committee, however
created, or constituted, shall receive any compensation from the
Association or
make any charge for his services as such.
By majority vote of the members of
the Architectural Review
Committee, the numbers of members on the committee may be increased.
4. Approval. Construction may not
begin on building, landscaping,
or exterior remodeling of any home, outbuilding, or fence unless a
request for
approval has been submitted to the Architectural Review Committee in
duplicate
and has been approved in writing by a majority of that Committee or by
a
representative designated by a majority of the Committee. Requests for
approval
of exterior remodeling shall contain a copy of the plans and
specifications. A
request for approval of any landscaping plans shall contain a sketch of
