Article 2 Authority
Article 2 2.1 The Development is a community development of land and each lot in the Development is a part of the general development scheme. The authority of the Association to make and enforce the following RULES AND REGULATIONS is derived from Covenant No. 12 of the Declaration on file in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds of the County of Monroe and as appear in Deeds of Conveyance from the developer. All lots in the Development are sold subject to the said Declaration, which runs with the land. 2.2 The Association�s authority is derived from its non-profit corporate charter on record with the PA Department of State. Further authority to make and enforce such RULES AND REGULATIONS is derived from the By-Laws, namely: A. Article VIII, Section 6A, which states: "The Board of Directors� shall have the power to: (1) adopt and publish rules and regulations governing the use of the common areas and facilities and the personal conduct of the members, their families and guests thereon and to establish penalties for the infraction thereof; (2) suspend the voting rights and rights to use the recreational facilities of a member and his family during any period in which such member shall be in default in the payment of any dues and assessments, levied by the Association pursuant to the authority granted by these By-Laws. Such rights may also be suspended after notice and hearing for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days for infraction of published rules and regulations." B. Article XII, Section 1, which states: �The Board of Directors on behalf of the Association shall adopt and promulgate membership dues and assessments, fines and other charges against the lots and owners thereof, which shall be used to defray the costs of operating, maintaining, repairing, constructing and replacing the amenities and common areas, including roads and other costs and expenses incurred by the Association including salaries, and to achieve and further the Association�s purposes. The Board of Directors may increase the annual dues and assessments subject to the approval of a majority of the members present in person or by proxy at any annual or special meeting�. 2.3 These Rules and Regulations are in addition to or modify, and in no way supersede, the provisions of the Declaration applicable to the Development, or the By-Laws.
