1.  Individual Items.  Certain items which would ordinarily be considered common areas, such as, but not limited to, screen doors, window screens, other screens, awnings, storm windows, planter boxes, antennae, and the like may, pursuant to decision of the Board of Directors, be designated as items to be furnished and/or maintained at individual expense in good order according to standards and requirements established by the Board of Directors or by the Rules and Regulations.
 
2.  Notices for All Purposes.  Any notice permitted or required to be delivered under the provisions of these Bylaws may be delivered either personally or by mail as provided in Article 6.4 of the Declaration.  Mailing addresses may be changed from time to time by notice in writing to the Board. Notice to be given to the Board may be given to the Declarant until the Board of Directors has been appointed or elected and, thereafter, shall be given to the President or Secretary of the Board of Directors.

3.  Waiver.   The failure of the Board of Directors in any one or more instances to insist upon the strict performance of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or restrictions of the Declaration, or of these Bylaws, or any Rules and Regulations established by the Board of Directors contained in such documents, or to serve any notice or to institute any action, shall not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment for the future as to such term, covenant, condition or restriction, but such term, covenant, condition or restriction shall remain in full force and effect. The receipt by the Board of Directors of any assessment from a lot owner, with knowledge of any such breach shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by the Board of Directors of any provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by the Board of Directors.

4.  Limitation of Liability.  The Board of Directors of the Association shall not be liable for any failure of any utility or other service to be obtained and paid for by the Board of Directors or for injury or damage to person or property caused by the elements, or by another lot owner or person; or resulting from electricity, water, rain, dust or sand which may lead or flow from outside or from any parts of the buildings, or from any pipes, drains, conduits, appliances, or equipment, or from any other place; or resulting from loss, damage, or theft of articles used or stored by lot owners on the property or in lots. No diminution or abatement of assessment shall be claimed or allowed for inconveniences or discomfort arising from the making of repairs or improvements to the common areas, or from any action taken to comply with any law, ordinance, or order of a governmental authority. This section shall not be interpreted to impose any form of liability by any implication upon the Board of Directors or upon the Association.
