ARTICLE 24 - GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 1. 

Enforcement.

The Association, or any Owner, shall have the right to enforce, by any proceeding at law or in equity, including injunctive relief, all restrictions, conditions, covenants, reservations, liens and charges now or hereafter imposed by the provisions of this Declaration. The failure of the Association or any Owner to enforce any covenant or restriction herein contained shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter.

Section 2. 

Severability.

Invalidation of any one of these covenants or restrictions by judgment or court order shall in no way affect any other provisions which shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 3. 

Annexation.

Additional residential property and common areas may be annexed to the Properties with the consent of two-thirds (2/3) of each class of members and the Declarant. Any such annexation shall subject said land to these covenants, conditions and restrictions, and the owners of each lot in such annexed area shall have the same rights, benefits, obligations and duties as the Owners of the Lots described in this Declaration.

Section 4. 

Development by Declarant.

No provisions contained herein shall prevent Declarant, or Declarant's contractors or subcontractor from performing such work and activities as it deems necessary or advisable in connection with the development of the Properties, nor shall such provisions in any way prevent the Declarant from maintaining such sign or signs on the Properties as Declarant deems necessary or desirable for the sale or other disposition thereof, nor shall such provisions in any way prevent the use of a Lot and dwelling thereon as a model home and/or sales office including the use of the garage as a sales office thereby rendering the garage non-functional.

Section 5. 

Amendment.

The covenants and restrictions of this Declaration shall run with and bind the land, for a term of twenty (20) years from the date this Declaration is recorded, after which time they shall be automatically extended for successive periods of ten (10) years, unless the Owners of all Lots and the holders of all first mortgages encumbering the Lots join in a written instrument recorded in the Public Records of Leon County, Florida, agreeing to terminate these covenants and restrictions upon the expiration of any ten (10) year period. This Declaration may be amended during the first twenty (20) year period by an instrument signed by not less than ninety percent (90%) of the Lot owners, and thereafter by an instrument signed by not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Lot Owners. No amendment shall affect the priority of the lien of any first mortgage on any Lot over the lien of the assessments provided for herein unless the holder of the mortgage joins in the execution of the amendment. Any amendment must be recorded.

Section 6. 

FHA/VA Approval.

As long as there are outstanding any mortgages insured or guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration or the Veterans Administration, the following actions will require the prior approval of the Federal Housing Administration or the Veterans Administration: annexation of additional properties, dedication of Common Area and amendment of this Declaration.
