THE ASSOCIATION OF PELICAN POINT, INC.

RULES AND REGULATIONS

INTRODUCTION

These revised Rules and Regulations were approved and adopted by the Board of Directors of the Association of Pelican Point, Inc. on November 21, 2002, with most recent revisions in November / December of 2005.  They are intended to maintain the value of our property and to ensure the quality of life that is anticipated and expected in a well-maintained residential community.  These Rules and Regulations are in addition to and are not inconsistent with the provisions as set forth in the Declaration of Condominium for Pelican Point.  These Rules and Regulations supersede and replace any and all Rules and Regulations as they apply to the Association of Pelican Point, Inc. published and issued prior to the above date of adoption.  The Board of Directors may from time to time add new Rules and Regulations to address new issues or to make changes to these Rules and Regulations as deemed appropriate.

The Condominium Documents provide that each unit owner is a member of the Association, thus providing certain rights and requiring certain duties and obligations.  Each owner is entitled to the quiet enjoyment of his or her property and the common areas without any undue interference or disturbance from other owners or guests.  To this end, each individual owner must do his or her share to ensure this right is protected and to cooperate in order to maintain the quality of our financial investment.  We urge you to participate in this joint responsibility by following these Rules and Regulations and contributing your support in our efforts. If you feel that compliance with any of these rules is being overlooked, please bring it to the attention of Management or a Board Member in writing.
