RE: Snowbunny Townhomes Condo Plat CITY OF ASPEN
1225 & 1227 Snowbunny Lane
DATE: May 7, 1998
Evan Korn, representing Snowbunny Equity Venture, LLC, owner, has applied for a
subdivision exemption for the condominiumization of a duplex located at 1225 and 1227
Snowbunny Lane. I have referred this application to the City Engineer and the applicant
has responded to the suggested modifications to the draft plat. There are no other
proposed improvements to the site, it is a permitted use in the R -15 zone district, and
there are no other land use issues involved. The Community Development Director may
approve subdivision exemptions pursuant to Section 26.88.070. I am recommending
approval of this condominiumization contingent upon final recordation.
Approved, contingent upon final recordation of the plat:

desires to create a Common Interest Community under the style and name " SNOWBUNNY
TOWNHOMES" pursuant to which the real estate described in Exhibit "A" will be designated
for separate ownership and use of a residential nature and in which portions of said real estate
will be designated for common ownership solely by the owners (the "Owners ") of the separate
ownership portions.
Section 1.2 Submission of Real Estate. Declarant hereby submits the real estate
described in said Exhibit "A," together with all easements, rights -of -way and appurtenances
thereto and the buildings and improvements erected thereon (collectively, the "Real Estate ")
to the provisions of the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act, Section §§38-33.3-101
et seq. of the Colorado Revised Statutes, as it may be amended from time to time (the "Act")
and to this Declaration. In the event the Act is repealed, the Act on the effective date of this
Declaration shall remain applicable. Declarant hereby declares that all of the Real Estate shall
be held, leased, mortgaged, sold and conveyed subject to the following terms, easements,
reservations, restrictions, covenants, and conditions. Declarant further declares that this
Declaration is made for the purpose of protecting the value and desirability of the Real Estate;
that this Declaration shall run with the Real Estate and shall be binding on all parties having any
right, title or interest in the Real Estate or any part thereof, their heirs, devisees, legal
representatives, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of each and every Owner.
Section 1.3 Division of Property into Units and Common Property. The Real Estate
is hereby divided into two (2) fee simple estates, i.e. Units, each of which is improved with
a single family townhouse residence sharing a party wall with a single family townhouse
residence on the adjoining Unit. Each unit shall own an undivided fifty percent (50 %) fee
simple interest in the Common elements (as defined below).
1
Section 3.3 Description of Units. Every contract for sale, deed, lease, Security
Interest and every other legal document or instrument shall legally describe a Unit as follows:
Unit Snowbunny Townhomes, a Common Interest
Community according to the Condominium Plat thereof
recorded in Plat Book at Page and the Declaration for
Snowbunny Townhomes recorded as Reception No.
, all of the real estate records of Pitkin County,
Colorado.
Every such description shall be good and sufficient for all purposes to sell, convey, transfer,
encumber or otherwise affect the Unit, the improvements thereon, the interest in the
Common Elements appurtenant thereto and to incorporate the rights, limitations and burdens
incident to ownership of a Unit as described in this Declaration and the Plat.
Section 3.4 Unit Boundaries. The boundaries of each Unit and the Common
Elements are shown on the Condominium Plat.
(a) Except as otherwise described below, all Real Estate and the
improvements thereon, located within the boundaries of the Unit as shown on
the Condominium are a part of the Unit;
(b) All built -in air handling, ventilation and heating systems including
chutes, flutes, ducts, wire, conduit and all other mechanical systems of the
Snowbunny Townhomes wherever situated that serve only one Unit are part of
that Unit and any portions thereof that serve both Units or the Common
Elements are Common Elements.
(c) The common driveway serving the garages for the Units as well
as any spaces or improvements outside the boundaries of any Unit that do not
serve any particular Unit shall be Common Elements.
(d) Any structural elements, bearing or party walls or columns

respect to such Owner's Unit. By becoming an Owner, each Owner waives any and all rights
of partition such Owner may hold with respect to such Owner's Unit. This Section 3.6 shall
3
not, however, limit or restrict the right of the Owners of a Unit to bring a partition action
pursuant to Section 38 -28 -101 et seq. of the Colorado Revised Statutes requesting the sale
of the Unit and the division of the proceeds among each Owner; provided that no physical
division of the Unit shall be permitted as a part of such action and no such action shall affect
any other Unit.
Section 3.7 Separate Assessment. Declarant shall give written notice to the Assessor
of Pitkin County, Colorado requesting that the Units be separately assessed and taxed and that
the total value of the Common Elements be assessed and taxed proportionately in accordance
with the Allocated Interest of such Unit in the Common Elements. After this Declaration has
been recorded in the real estate records of Pitkin County, Colorado, Declarant shall deliver a
copy of this Declaration as recorded to the Assessor of Pitkin County, Colorado.
Section 3.8 No Mechanic's Liens.
(a) If any Owner shall cause or permit any material to be furnished to such Owner's
Unit or any labor or services to be performed therein, no Owner of any other Unit shall be
liable for the payment of any expense incurred or for the value of any work done or material
furnished. All such work shall be at the expense of the Owner causing it to be done, and such
Owner shall be solely responsible to contractors, laborers, materialmen and other persons
furnishing labor, services or materials to such Owner's Unit. Nothing herein contained shall
authorize any Owner or any person dealing through, with or under any Owner to charge the
Common Elements or any Unit other than that of such Owner with any mechanic's or material
men's lien or other lien or encumbrance whatsoever. Notice is hereby given that the right and
power to charge any lien or encumbrance of any kind against the Common Elements or against
any Owner or any Owner's Unit for work done or materials furnished to any other Owner's
Unit is hereby expressly denied.
(b) If, because of any act or omission of any Owner, any mechanic's or
materialman's lien or other lien or order for the payment of money shall be filed against any
of the Common Elements or against any other Owner's Unit or against any other Owner or
the Association (whether or not such lien or order is valid or enforceable as such), the Owner
whose or which act or omission forms the basis for such lien or order shall, at such Owner's

and by a surety company reasonably acceptable to the party or parties affected by such lien
or order within twenty (20) days after the filing thereof, and further such Owner shall

ARTICLE IV
THE ASSOCIATION, DEADLOCKS,
INDEMNIFICATION, NOTICES TO OWNERS
4
Section 4.1 Purposes. The Association, through its Executive Board, shall perform
the functions and manage and administer the Common Interest Community as provided in this
Declaration so as to further the interests of the members of the Association. The Association
shall be governed by its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, as amended from time to time.
The Executive Board may, by written resolution, delegate authority to a manger or managing
agent for the Association, provided no such delegation shall relieve the Executive Board of final
responsibility.
Section 4.2 Specific Powers. The Association shall have all the powers, authority and
duties as necessary and proper to manage the business and affairs of the Common Interest
Community. The Association shall have all of the powers, authority and duties permitted or
set forth in the Act. The Association shall have the power to assign its right to future income,
including the right to receive Common Expense assessments, but only upon the affirmative
vote of the Owners of both Unit 1 and Unit 2.
Section 4.3 Membership Qualifications. Each individual, corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other legal entity capable of holding title to
real property in Colorado shall automatically become a member of the Association upon
becoming an Owner of a Unit. Membership shall be continuous throughout the period that
such ownership continues and shall be appurtenant to and inseparable from ownership of a
Unit. Ownership of a Unit shall be the sole qualification for such membership. Membership
shall terminate automatically without any Association action whenever any Owner ceases to
own any Unit. No Owner may pledge or otherwise hypothecate its membership in the
Association and no such pledge or hypothecation shall be effective or binding on the
Association. Where more than one person or legal entity holds an interest in any Unit, all such
persons or legal entities shall be members and the voting of such membership shall be in
accordance with the Act.
Section 4.4 Executive Board. The affairs of the Association shall be governed by an
Executive Board consisting of two (2) members. The Owner of Unit 1 shall appoint one
member and the Owner of Unit 2 shall appoint one member. Except as otherwise provided
in this Declaration, the Executive Board may only act by unanimous decision, subject to
provisions of Section 4.5 below regarding deadlocks. In addition, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Declaration, the unanimous consent of the Executive
Board shall be required, in connection with any decision to change the physical appearance or
the color of the Units.
Section 4.5 Deadlocks of Executive Board. There shall be a deadlock of the
Executive Board (the "Deadlock ") where either member shall give notice (the "Notice of
Deadlock ") to the other that, after a formal vote, one member of the Executive Board has
voted for or against any item of business coming before the Executive Board and the other
member has voted differently or refuses to vote or refuses to attend a duly called meeting of
the Executive Board. In the event of a Deadlock, a decision resolving the Deadlock (which
shall be final and binding on all Owners) shall be made by a third disinterested person (the
"Decision Maker"). The Decision Maker shall be appointed by the Executive Board within five
5
(5) days after the Notice of Deadlock has been given in accordance with the procedures for
the giving of notices set forth in Paragraph 4.7 below. If the Executive Board cannot, within
the time provided, agree on a Decision Maker, then, at the request of either member of the
Executive Board, the Decision Maker shall be appointed by either the then president of the
Aspen Board of Realtors or the then president of the Pitkin County Bar Association. Within
five (5) days after the appointment of the Decision Maker, each member of the Executive
Board shall submit to the Decision Maker a written proposal to resolve the Deadlock. If only
one member shall timely submit a written proposal, such proposal shall automatically be
deemed the decision of the Decision Maker for purposes of resolving the Deadlock. The
Decision Maker shall be, in the case of a disagreement involving primarily an architectural
issue, a local architect with no less than five (5) years experience in the Aspen area and, in any
other matter of disagreement, an individual with no less than five (5) years experience in
Aspen residential property management. In no event shall the Decision Maker be related to,
an affiliate of, or under the control or ownership of any Owner. The Decision Maker shall
make his or her decision in good faith using reasonable judgment but must select, without
change or modification, the entire proposal submitted by one of the Executive Board
Members. The Decision Maker may, in the course of making a decision, retain the services
of, and rely upon the advice of, an attorney, accountant, architect or engineer. The costs of
the proceedings, including outside professional fees, shall, in the reasonable discretion of the
Decision Maker, be allocated to one or both members of Executive Board in any proportion
as the Decision Maker deems fair. If the presidents of both the Aspen Board of Realtors and
Pitkin County Bar Association fail or refuse to appoint a Decision Maker within five (5) days
after being requested to do so, then either member of the Executive Board shall have the right
to petition any judge of the Pitkin County District Court or the Pitkin County Court judge to
appoint a Decision Maker. The reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by either
member of the Executive Board in obtaining the judicial appointment of a Decision Maker shall
be shared equally by the members of the Executive Board. In consideration of the Decision
Maker accepting his or her appointment hereunder, each of the Owners and the Executive
Board agree to indemnify, protect and hold harmless Decision Maker from and against any
claims, demands or causes of action for damages or any other relief arising out of any activities
of the Decision Maker hereunder, excepting only acts of willful misconduct, fraud or
dishonesty of the Decision Maker.
Section 4.6 Indemnification. To the full extent permitted by law, each officer and
Executive Board Member of the Association shall be and is hereby indemnified by the Unit
Owners and the Association against all expenses and liabilities including attorney's fees,
reasonably incurred by or imposed upon them in any proceeding to which they may be a
party, or in which they may become involved, by reason of being or having been an officer
or Executive Board Member of the Association, or any settlements thereof, whether or not
they are an officer or Executive Board Member of the Association at the time such expenses
are incurred; except in such cases wherein such officer or Executive Board Member is adjudged
guilty of willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his or her duties; provided
that in the event of a settlement the indemnification shall apply only when the Executive Board
approves such settlement and reimbursement as being in the best interests of the Association.
Notwithstanding the preceding, the indemnification provisions of this Section 4.6 do not apply
6
to Deadlocks or any expenses or liabilities incurred by a member of the Executive Board arising
out of Section 4.5 above.
Section 4.7 Notice to Owners. Notice to an Owner of matters affecting the
Snowbunny Townhomes by the Association or by another Owner shall be sufficiently given
if such notice is in writing and is delivered personally, by courier or private service delivery or
on the third business day after deposit in the mails for registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, at the address of record for real property tax assessment notices with
respect to that Owner's Unit.
ARTICLE V
EASEMENTS AND LICENSES
Section 5.1 Unit Owners' Easements. Every Unit Owner shall have a right of
enjoyment and easement for access to their Unit through or over the Common Elements and
such easement shall be appurtenant to and shall pass with the title to every Unit, subject to the
following provisions:
(a) The right of the Association to promulgate and publish rules and
regulations with which each Unit Owner and their guests shall strictly comply.
(b) The right of the Association to grant easements, leases, licenses
and concessions through or over the Common Elements.
(c) The right of the Association to convey or subject a Common
Element to a Security Interest in accordance with and to the extent permitted
by the Act.
(d) The right of the Association to dose or limit the use of the
Common Elements while maintaining, repairing or replacing such Common
Elements.
(e) Any Unit Owner may delegate their right of enjoyment to the
Common Elements and facilities to the members of their family, their tenants
or guests who reside or rent at their Unit.
Section 5.2 Encroachment Easements. Each Owner has an easement over the
adjoining Unit for the purpose of accommodating any encroachment due to engineering
errors, errors in original construction, reconstruction, repair, settlement or shifting or
movement of the building, or any other similar cause. There shall be valid easements for the
maintenance of said encroachments so long as they shall exist, and the rights and obligations
of Owners shall not be altered in any way by said encroachment, settlement or shifting;
provided, however, that in no event shall a valid easement for encroachments occur due to
the willful misconduct of an Owner or Owners. In the event a structure is partially or totally
7
r^
destroyed, and then repaired or rebuilt in substantially the same manner as originally
constructed, the Owners agree that minor encroachments over the abutting Unit shall be
permitted and that there shall be valid easements for the maintenance of said encroachments
so long as they shall exist.
Section 5.3 Maintenance and Utility Easement. The Association, its officers,
directors, agents, independent contractors, employees and assigns shall have the irrevocable
right, upon, across, in, over, and under the Common Elements and Units as may be necessary
or appropriate to perform the duties and functions which it is obligated or permitted to
perform pursuant to this Declaration, including landscape care, exterior maintenance of Units
and snow removal. The Association may create additional easements upon, across, in , over,
and under the Common Elements and under the surface of the Units (limited in the case of
the Units to the easements shown and designated on the Plat) for installing, replacing, repairing
and maintaining all utilities, including but limited to water, sewer, gas, telephone, electricity,
television satellite system, and cable television, if any; provided, however, that such easements
are reasonably necessary for the purposes intended. All such utility easements and utility
services situate in such easements shall be a part of the Common Elements, except as may be
dedicated for the respective public utilities with a corresponding assumption of maintenance
responsibility
ARTICLE VI
ALLOCATED INTERESTS
Section 6.1 Allocated Interests. The Common Expense liability, percentage
ownership interest of each Unit Owner in the Common Elements and votes in the Association
allocated to each Unit shall be as follows:
Percentage Percentage
Share Share of
Ownership in Common
Common Interest Votes in Affairs
Unit No. Elements Expenses of Action
1 50% 50% 1 vote
2 50% 50% 1 vote
TOTAL 2 Units 100% 100% 2 votes
Section 6.2 Determination of Allocated Interests. The interests allocated to each
Unit have been calculated on the basis of treating each Unit equally for purposes of the
8
ownership in Common Elements, percentage of Common Interest Expenses and votes in the
affairs of the Association.
ARTICLE VII
COVENANT FOR COMMON EXPENSE ASSESSMENTS
Section 7.1 Obligation to Pay Common Expense Assessments. Declarant, for each
Unit, shall be deemed to covenant and agree, and each Unit Owner, by acceptance of a deed
therefore, whether or not it shall be so expressed in any such deed or other conveyance, shall
be deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the Association Common Expense assessments
imposed by the Association against said Unit. Such assessments, including fees, charges, late
charges, attorney's fees, fines and interest charged by the Association shall also be the personal
obligation of the Unit Owner of such Unit at the time when the assessment or other charges
become due. Where there are multiple Owners of a Unit, the obligation to pay assessments
shall be joint and several. The personal obligation to pay any past due sums due the
Association shall not pass to a successor in title unless expressly assumed by them. No Unit
Owner may become exempt from liability for payment of the Common Expense assessments
by waiver of the use or enjoyment of the Common Elements or by abandonment of the Unit
against which the Common Expense assessments are made. All assessments shall be payable
in the amounts specified in the levy thereof, and no offsets or reduction thereof shall be
permitted by any reason including, without limitation, any claim that the Association or the
Executive Board is not properly exercising its duties and powers under this Declaration.
Section 7.2 Apportionment of Common Expenses. Except as provided in this
Section 7.2 or elsewhere in this Declaration, Common Expense assessments shall be assessed
against both Units in accordance with the formula for liability for the Common Expenses as
set forth in Section 6.1 above.
(a) Any Common Expense associated with the maintenance, repair,
or replacement of a portion of an individual Unit shall be assessed against such
Unit to which that Limited Common Element is assigned, unless the Executive
Board shall agree to a different proportion;
(b) Any Common Expense for services provided by the Association
to an individual Unit at the request of the Unit Owner shall be assessed against
that Unit only;
(c) The cost of common utilities, if any there shall be, shall be
assessed in proportion to actual or estimated usage;
9
(d) If a Common Expense is caused by the misconduct of a Unit
Owner, such expense shall be assessed exclusively against that Unit Owner and
Unit;
Section 7.3 Purpose of Assessments. The assessments levied by the Association
through its Executive Board shall be used exclusively for the purposes of promoting the health,
safety, and welfare of the members of the Association. Such purposes shall include, but shall
not be limited to the following: (a) the improvement, maintenance, repair, upkeep and
reconstruction of the Common Elements; or (b) for painting, landscape care and snow removal
and any other maintenance obligations which may be deemed desirable for the common
benefit of the Unit Owners; or (c) for the maintenance of property values, or for payment of
expenses which may be incurred by virtue of agreement with or requirement of any
governmental authority. The assessments may also be used to provide insurance of various
types and in such amounts deemed appropriate by the Executive Board. Also, a portion of
the assessments may be used to provide a reserve fund for the replacement, repair, and
maintenance of Common Elements which must be replaced or refurbished on a periodic basis.
Section 7.4 Adoption of Budget. Within thirty (30) days after adoption of any
proposed budget for the Common Interest Community, the Executive Board shall mail, by
ordinary first -class mail or otherwise deliver, a summary of the budget to all the Unit Owners
and shall set a date for a meeting of the Unit Owners to consider ratification of the budget not
less than fourteen (14) nor more than sixty (60) days after mailing or other delivery of the
summary. In the event that the proposed budget is rejected, the last periodic budget as
ratified by the Unit Owners will be continued until such time as the Unit Owners ratify a
subsequent budget proposed by the Executive Board. Failure of the Executive Board to agree
on a proposed budget shall be considered a Deadlock under Section 4.5 above.
Section 7.5 Annual Assessment /Commencement of Common Expense. Common
Expense assessments may be made on an annual basis against all Units and shall be based upon
the Association's budget of the cash requirements needed by it to provide for the
administration and performance of its duties during such assessment year. Common Expense
assessments shall be due and payable in monthly, quarterly, or annual installments, or in any
other manner, as determined by the Executive Board. Common Expense assessments may
begin on the first day of the month in which conveyance of the first Unit to a Unit Owner
other than the Declarant occurs. The omission or failure of the Executive Board to levy
assessments for any period shall not be deemed a waiver, modification or a release of the Unit
Owners from their obligation to pay assessments for such period.
Section 7.6 Effect of Non - Payment of Assessments. Any assessments, changes or fees
provided for in this Declaration, or any monthly or other installments thereof, which is not
fully paid within ten (10) days after the due date thereof, as established by the Executive
Board, shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (1 %) per annum from the due date,
and the Association may assess a reasonable late charge thereon as determined by the
Executive Board. Failure to make payment within sixty (60) days of the due date thereof shall
cause the total amount of such Unit Owner's Common Expense Assessment for the remainder
10
of that fiscal year to become immediately due and payable at the option of the Executive
Board. Further, the Association may bring an action at law or in equity, or both, against any
Unit Owner personally obligated to pay such overdue assessments, charges or fees, or monthly
or other installments thereof, and may also proceed to foreclose its lien against such Unit
Owner's Unit. An action at law or in equity by the Association against a Unit Owner to
recover a money judgement for unpaid assessments, charges or fees, or monthly or other
installments thereof, may be commenced and pursued to the Association without foreclosing,
or in any way waiving, the Association's lien therefore. Foreclosure or attempted foreclosure
by the Association of its lien shall not be deemed to stop or otherwise preclude the Association
from thereafter again foreclosing or attempting to foreclose its lien for any subsequent
assessments, charges or fees, or monthly or other installments thereof, which are not fully paid
when due.
Section 7.7 The Association's Lien. The Association shall have from the date of
recording of this instrument a lien against each Unit to secure payment to the Association of
all assessments with respect to such Unit, interest thereon and all costs and expenses of
collecting such assessments and charges including reasonable attorney's fees. The Association's
lien shall be prior and superior to all other liens and encumbrances on a Unit except: (a) liens
and encumbrances recorded prior to the recordation of this instrument; (b) the Security
Interest of a first lien or with respect to such Unit except to the extent specified in the Act;
(c) liens for real estate taxes and other governmental charges against such Unit; and (d)
mechanic's and materialman's liens which by law may be prior to the Association's lien. The
Association's lien shall attach from the date of recording of this instrument and shall be
considered perfected without the necessity of recording a notice of lien. Nevertheless, the
Association may record in the real estate records of Pitkin County, Colorado, a notice of lien
which shall be executed by an officer or director of the Association and which shall contain
substantially the following information: (I) the legal description of the Unit against which the
lien is claimed; (ii) the name of the defaulting Owner of such Unit as indicated by the
Association's records; (iii) the total unpaid amount together with interest thereon and costs
of collection as of the date of such notice; (iv) a statement that the notice of lien is made by
the Association pursuant to the Declaration; and (v) a statement that a lien is claimed and will
be foreclosed against such Unit in an amount equal to the amount stated as then due and any
additional amounts thereafter becoming due. No failure or omission of the Association to file
any notice of lien shall affect the validity, priority or enforceability of such lien. The
Association's lien may be foreclosed upon in the manner provided by Colorado for the
foreclosure of mortgages encumbering real property. In any such foreclosure, the Owner of
the Unit subject to such foreclosure shall be required to pay the costs and expenses of such
proceedings, including reasonable attorney's fees. The Association shall be entitled to
purchase the Unit at any foreclosure sale, and to hold, lease, mortgage or convey the same.
In any such foreclosure action, the Court may appoint a receiver to collect all sums alleged to
be due from the Owner prior to or during the pendency of such foreclosure or action. The
Court may order the receiver so appointed to pay any sums held by such receiver to the
Association during the pendency of such foreclosure to the extent of the unpaid assessments
and charges.

Section 7.8 Statement of Unpaid Assessments. The Association shall furnish to an
Owner of a Unit or its designee or to a holder of a Security Interest or its designee, upon
written request, delivered personally or by certified mail, first -class postage prepaid, return
receipt requested to the Association's registered agent, a written statement setting forth the
amount of the unpaid assessments, if any, with respect to such Unit. Such statement shall be
furnished within fourteen (1 4) calendar days after receipt of the request and is binding upon
the Association, the Executive Board and every Unit Owner. If no statement is furnished to
the requesting party delivered personally or by certified mail, first -class postage prepaid, return
receipt requested, to the inquiring party, then the Association shall have no right to assert a
lien upon the Unit for unpaid assessments which were due as of the date of the request.

14
equipment. The costs of the maintenance required to be performed by the Association shall,
subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, be a Common Expense.
Section 9.2 Insurance Carried. The Association shall obtain and maintain in full force
and effect to the extent reasonably available, and at all times, the insurance coverage set forth
herein and as set forth in the Act, which insurance coverage shall be provided by financially
responsible and able companies duly authorized to do business in the State of Colorado.
Commencing not later than the time of the first conveyance of a Unit to a person other than
Declarant, the Association shall maintain, to the extent reasonably available, policies with the
following terms or provisions: -
(a) All policies of insurance shall contain waivers of subrogation and
waivers of any defense based on invalidity arising from any acts of a Unit Owner

or without compensation. The clause "officers, directors, trustees and employees" shall not
include any officer, director, agent or employee of any independent, professional manager or
managing agent heretofore or hereafter employed by the Association. The fidelity coverage
or bonds should be in an amount sufficient to cover the maximum funds that will be in control
of the Association, its officers, directors, trustees and employees.

or additional insurance against such other risks, of similar or dissimilar nature, as it shall deem
appropriate with respect to the Association responsibilities and duties.

maintained by or for the benefit of the Association and Unit Owners, the Association and the

damage or injury is caused by the negligence of or breach of any agreement by said person.
Section 9.12 Annual Insurance Review. The Executive Board shall review the
insurance carried by and on behalf of the Association at least annually for the purpose of
determining the amount of insurance required.
Section 9.13 Adiustments by the Association. Any loss covered by an insurance policy
