1 The Commons of Powell Condominium Community Association Rules & Regulations This handbook includes the community rules and regulations adopted by the Board. It contains specific rules and regulations authorized by the Declaration and Bylaws of this condominium association and is subject to change by action of the Board. This handbook was created to provide all unit owners with an understanding of the rules and regulations under which the association operates.

2 2 RULES AND REGULATIONS The Declaration and Bylaws of the Association give the Board the power and authority to adopt and publish rules and regulations governing the use of the common areas and limited common areas (defined later) and the personal conduct of unit owners, occupants, and their guests. The Board also has the power and authority to establish and levy enforcement charges for violations of the rules and regulations. These rules and regulations may be amended or modified from time to time, as conditions change, by the Board without any prior notification to unit owners or prospective unit owners who are under contract to close. BOARD The Board has the power and authority under Ohio law and the provisions of the Declaration and Bylaws to govern the operation and management of the Commons of Powell Associations affairs. The Board shall have the right, power and authority to suspend the voting rights of unit owners during any period in which they are in default in payment of condominium fees, charges, or any assessment levied by the Association. The Board is comprised of seven (7) members elected by unit owners. Each candidate runs for the position of a Director of the Board. The Board determines who serves in which capacity. The terms of the seven (7) Board members shall be staggered so that the terms will expire and successors will be elected at each annual meeting of the Association. Thereafter, at such annual meetings held in the first calendar quarter of each year, successors to the members whose terms expire shall be elected to serve applicable terms. Each unit shall be entitled to one (1) vote. Terms are as follows: Each elected Director will serve for a 3 year term. PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT Under direction of the Board, a professional management company will be contracted to monitor all maintenance activities and be responsible for collecting all monthly assessments from unit owners and maintaining all official financial documents. DECLARATION AND BYLAWS Every unit owner receives a copy of the Condominium Declaration and Bylaws at the closing of their unit. The Declaration and Bylaws have provisions that govern the Association. You should acquaint yourself with these documents.

3 3 FINANCIAL MATTERS Association Dues: Each unit owner by acceptance of a deed to a unit agrees to pay fees to the Association for operating assessments (normal condominium fees), special assessment for capital improvements, and special individual unit assessments as deemed necessary by the Board. These assessments shall be used exclusively to promote and provide for the health, safety and welfare of unit owners and residents and for the best interests of the condominium property. Association dues are payable to the Commons of Powell Condominium Association on the first of each month. A late charge of $20 will be added to any delinquent account if the payment envelope is not postmarked or the payment is not received by the tenth (10 th) of the month. Any check returned for non-sufficient funds will be handled as follows: 1. Charged back to the unit owner s account 2. Charged a $25 processing charge 3. All bank charges charged to the unit owner Delinquent Policy on Fees and Assessments Upon ten days delinquent, a delinquent notice is sent to the unit owner and the unit owner is assessed a $20 late charge per month for each month the fee/assessment is delinquent. Upon sixty days delinquent, a lien will be filed. At ninety days delinquent, foreclosure procedures will be taken by the association s attorney. Unit owner is responsible for all attorney fees, court costs, and any additional costs associated with the filing of a lien of foreclosure, or any other legal matters. COMMON AREAS Those portions of the condominium property that are not a part of the units are called Common Areas and Facilities under the Condominium Act. Purpose: The common areas are for the sole and exclusive use, benefit and enjoyment of the unit owners and residents, and are to be used in a manner in which such areas and facilities are ordinarily used. No one should use the common areas in such a manner as to disturb others. Damage: Unit owners are responsible for any maintenance and repair resulting from damage to the common areas caused by negligent or intentional acts by the unit owner, residents of the owner s unit, or any guests/invitees of the unit owner.

4 4 LIMITED COMMON AREAS Portions of the common areas are reserved for the exclusive use of the unit owners and residents of a particular unit. These areas are designated as limited common areas. The limited common areas appurtenant to each unit will consist of any patio, the parking space or spaces in front of a unit s garage, and the front porch or stoop. Personal Effects: Personal property, such as portable lawn chairs, bicycles, tables, toys, etc., must be placed inside the unit or in the garage when not in use. Any personal property maintained within a patio or deck area (part of the limited common area) must be orderly and inoffensive to the overall appearance of the community. No signs, awnings, canopies, shutters, television/cb/radio antennae, or any other device or ornament may be hung, displayed, affixed, or placed on exterior walls, doors, fences, or roofs. A written variance request may be submitted to the Board prior to any installation for its consideration to approve or disapprove. Prohibited Items: The following items, though not all-inclusive, are strictly prohibited in common areas and limited common areas: artificial flowers, ornamental rocks or stones, swing sets, mounted hose reels, laundry poles/clothes lines, or other such items.

Any mulch added by unit owners must be the same color and type that has been installed corporately for the entire community (shredded dark hardwood). New trees and shrubs will become the property of the Association, which will provide future mulching, pruning and fertilization; however, should any of these additional approved plants die, the resident adding them will be responsible for replacement.

5 5 Lawn Areas Common area lawns are maintained by a landscaping company under contract with the Association. During the growing season (spring, summer, fall), unit owners should cooperate in achieving a common goal of maintaining a high quality, attractive community by simply watering the grass, trees and shrubs around their unit as needed. Due to the high demand for water during dry periods, Del-Co Water has set the following year round mandatory lawn watering restrictions: Addresses ending with an even number may water on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Addresses ending with an odd number may water on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Absolutely no watering on Mondays The landscaping company is responsible for mulching of all common and limited common areas as directed by the Board. Owners are permitted to add mulch to the beds if they so desire, however it must be shredded dark hardwood mulch. Bagged mulch cannot be stored outside the unit. PETS Common areas are for the enjoyment of all residents and cannot be fully enjoyed if animal waste is left on the grounds and pets are allowed to run uncontrolled. The Association requires that unit owners take full responsibility for pets and the following rules clarify the covenants and restrictions of the Association regarding pets: 1. Dogs and cats may be kept as domestic pets provided they are not kept for commercial purposes or for breeding. 2. Pets shall be registered and inoculated as required by Delaware County. * 3. Pets must be leashed and under the control of the person walking them. No pet is permitted to roam freely on the grounds. * Aggressive behavior toward humans or another pet will be reason for the aggressive pet to be removed from the property. 4. No pet should be tethered outside unattended. No animal pens or houses are permitted outside the units 5. Owners are responsible to keep all common and limited common areas clean and free of pet waste. Animal waste must be cleaned up immediately. * A unit owner will be assessed the actual cost for grounds maintenance personnel to clean up after the unit owner s pet(s) if required. 6. Pet owners are responsible for preventing any disturbing noises by their pets. * 7. The cost of repairing damage done to common areas and limited common areas by a pet will be a special individual unit assessment against the owner of the unit responsible for the pet that caused the damage.

6 6 If pets become a nuisance, the owner may be faced with removal of the offending animal from the condominium property upon written notice by the Board.
