1l. CALCULATION OF ASSESSMENTS BY LOT. The ratio of the assessments made against each Lot by the
Association shall be the same as the ratio of one (1) to the total number of Lots in the Subdivision subject to such
assessment. The "total number of Lots" shall initially be the number of Lots shown on the original recorded plat of
the Subdivision, but such total shall be subject to modification in order to reflect any future phases. An Owner may
consolidate two (2) or more Lots for the purpose of constructing one single-family residence thereon; provided,
however, that in the event of the consolidation of any two or more of the original Lots, such consolidation shall in
no event have the effect of reducing the assessment due thereon, and such assessment shall continue to be based
upon the number of original Lots contained in the consolidated Lot. No diminution or abatement of assessments
shall be allowed or claimed for inconvenience or discomfort arising from the making of repairs or improvements to
the Common Properties or from the construction, relocation, installation or repair of security devices, or from any
action taken to comply with any law, ordinance, or order of a governmental authority.
ARTICLE SIX - ARCHITECTURAL AND PROTECTIVE COMMITTEE
1. CREATION. An Architectural and Protective Committee (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Committee")
shall be designated and composed of three (3) members, to be appointed by Declarant. The following persons are
hereby designated as the initial members of the Committee: Randall Ashelman, Amy Moss, and Robert Shaw. Each
member of the Committee shall serve for a term of two (2) years, unless such member sooner resigns by giving
written notice of resignation to the remaining members of the Committee, or is removed at the direction of
Declarant or its successors and assigns. The Committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Declarant, its successors
and assigns, and a member of the Committee may be removed for any reason. When ninety percent (90%) of the
Lots in the Subdivision are sold, Declarant shall delegate the authority to appoint members of the Committee to the
Association by written notice, after which time the Board of Trustees of the Association shall have the right to
appoint and remove members of the Committee.
2. SUBMISSION AND APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS. A copy of the construction plans and
specifications, including exterior views, exterior materials, colors and elevation; a site plan showing the location of
any proposed structure or improvement; a landscaping plan; soil percolation test data; and any other information or
documents which may be required by the Committee shall be delivered, together with any review fee which is
imposed by the Committee in accordance with Article Six, paragraph 3, to the Committee at the offices of
Goldenwood Properties, Inc., 2806 Nueces, Austin, Texas 76705, or such other address as may hereafter be
designated in writing from time to time, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date construction on a Lot is to
be commenced. No structure or improvement, including but not limited to buildings, fences, walls, landscaping,
pools, exterior lighting fixtures, security and emergency communications systems and radio-television antennae,
shall be placed or altered on any Lot until the plans and specifications therefor and the builder which the Owner
intends to use to construct the proposed structure or improvement have been approved in writing by a majority of
the members of the Committee. The Committee may, in reviewing such plans and specifications, consider any
information which it deems proper, including, without limitation, any permits or percolation tests which may be
required by the Committee or any other entity; information relating to the question of whether any proposed
improvement would unreasonably obstruct the view from neighboring Lots; harmony of external design and
location in relation to surrounding structures, topography and finished grade elevation; and the identity of the
builder which an Owner proposes to use to construct the proposed structure or improvement. The Committee may
postpone its review of any plans and specifications submitted for approval pending receipt of any information or
material which the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require. A copy of the construction plans and
specifications and a site plan showing the location of the proposed structure or improvement, if approved, shall
remain in the possession of the Committee until the Subdivision is built out in its entirety. Site plans must be
approved by the Committee prior to the clearing of any Lot or the construction of any improvements thereon. The
Committee may refuse to approve plans and specifications for proposed improvements on any grounds which, in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Committee, are deemed sufficient, including, but not limited to, purely aesthetic
grounds. In reviewing plans and specifications, the Committee shall consider, but not be limited by, the purposes
set forth in Article Two of this Declaration.
3. ADOPTION OF RULES. The Committee shall have the authority to adopt such procedural and substantive
rules, not in conflict with this Declaration, as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance of its duties
hereunder. In addition, the Committee shall have the power and authority to impose a reasonable charge not in
excess of $100 as it deems necessary or convenient for the review of plans, specifications and other documents and
information submitted to it pursuant to the terms of this Declaration. Such charges shall be held by the Committee
and used to defray the administrative expenses incurred by the Committee in performing its duties hereunder;
provided, however, that any excess funds held by the Committee shall be distributed to the Association at the end
of each calendar year.
