Fences shall only be composed of wood, decorative iron, brick, stone or vinyl. No fences or walls shall exceed a height of four (4) feet excepting in those instances when a swimming pool is installed, in which case a fence or wall shall be permitted only to the height necessary to comply with the homeowner s insurance requirements. Temporary or permanent chain link, wire type, barbed wire, electrical and/or snow fences are strictly prohibited.

RECREATIONAL VEHICLE STORAGE: No boat, camper, van type camper, auto drawn trailer of any kind, mobile home, motorcycle, snowmobile or similar chattel shall be kept, parked or stored outside of the garage for more than a total of twenty (20) days within a calendar year. When thusly stored, the personal property shall be on a paved hard surface driveway or paved pad adjacent to the driveway. j.

VEHICLE REPAIR: All repair or maintenance work on automobiles, boats, camping trailers, van type campers, auto drawn trailers of any kind, mobile homes, motorcycles, snowmobiles or other self propelled

vehicles that exceeds a continuous period of forty-eight (48) hours shall be done in the garage. Commercial repair or maintenance of vehicles shall not be permitted on any Lot. o. SIGNS: No signs whatsoever, including but without limitation to commercial signs, political signs, and similar signs visible from the street and neighboring property or roads shall be erected or maintained upon any Lot except: (1) such signs that shall be required by legal proceedings, (2) job identification signs having a maximum face area of six (6) square feet per sign and of a type usually temporarily installed during the time of construction by contractors, subcontractors, and tradesmen, and (3) not more than one For Sale or For Rent sign having a maximum face area of six (6) square feet. p. VACANT LOTS: Vacant Lots are not permitted any gardens, fences or structures of any type nor shall they be used for the dumping or disposal of earth or waste materials. Except for the purpose of controlling erosion on vacant Lots, no field crops shall be grown upon any Lot at any time. Natural vegetation shall be maintained by the Owner to a height of less than three (3) feet. Weeds identified as noxious by the Cass County Weed Control Authority shall be removed. q. GARDENS: On developed Lots, small vegetable gardens shall be permitted in the rear yard of the Lot, behind the dwelling on said Lot. ARTICLE IV AMENDMENTS This Declaration may be amended by an instrument signed by not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Owners of the Lots located within the Properties. Any amendment shall be recorded. ARTICLE V GENERAL PROVISIONS All paragraph identifications are not exclusionary; i.e., they are for ease of reference only and do not serve to limit the responsibility of the Owner regarding the total content within that and all other restrictions. This document may be signed with counterpart signatures. When the signature pages with signatures and the acknowledgement pages with signatures are attached to a single document, said single document shall be as legally effective as if all of the parties hereto signed said single document and had their signatures acknowledged on said single document. The undersigned, constituting at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Owners of Lots in Blocks One (1) through Twenty (20) inclusive, located within Buccaneer Bay, do hereby adopt this Amendment. These amended covenants were filed at the Cass County Court House on June 22, 2005.
