I. GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING CONDOMINIUMS

We hope following information will assist you in understanding the condominium concept. The condominium lifestyle is different in many ways from single family housing. A condominium is a corporation that is closely regulated by Florida State Law, Section 718. Each condominium and its Association (owners) are governed by this Law, and the individual condominiums legal documents which include a Declaration of Condominium, Articles of Incorporation, By-laws and Rules and Regulations. The operation of a condominium is administered by a board of directors elected by the owners.

It is suggested that all owners become familiar with the above documents. Current copies of the law and related documents are maintained in the Association Office and are available to owners for reference.

II. CONDMINIUM DOCUMENTS – (available in the condo office)

A. DECLARATION OF CONDOMINIUM

The Declaration establishes the basic principles by which a particular condominium is created and developed. It also contains certain rules of conduct for the Association and its members. The Riverhouse Declaration cannot be changed without consent of the owners and mortgage holders. In Riverhouse, a vote of 150 owners and 100% of the mortgage holders is needed for changes to be made to this document.

B. ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

The Articles establish the legal existence of the condominium corporation.

C. BY-LAWS

The By-Laws detail the requirements and regulations needed to operate the condominium.

D. RULES AND REGULATIONS

The Rules and Regulations document contains a listing of various rules, regulations, policies and procedures that have been established by the Board of Directors to ensure that Daytona Beach Riverhouse remains a beautiful and harmonious living experience.

E. OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS

Frequently Asked Questions, Unit Owner’s Voting Certificate, Unit Owner/Resident Roster, Board and Member meeting minutes are all kept in the condo office.

III - OWNERSHIP

The term "condominium" refers to a form of property ownership in use for many years in Europe which became popular and widespread in the United States in the 1960's

A. THE OWNER'S UNIT

Briefly described, the condominium unit owner is the sole owner of his home, holding title in fee simple. You own the space between the unfinished walls of your unit and certain rights to the common areas of the condominium.

B. COMMON ELEMENTS

The owner holds an ownership interest in the land upon which the condominium is developed, the building structure, the parking facilities, swimming pool, clubhouse, tennis courts and docks, as well as operating equipment. The properties owned in common are called common elements, and each unit owner’s share of ownership is set forth in the Declaration of Condominium. The ownership of an undivided interest in the common elements, called a percentage interest, also gives the unit owner the right to participate in the control of the Association. The obligation to pay a defined Share of common expenses for operating and maintaining all of the common elements is also according to the percentage interests.

C. LIMITED COMMON ELEMENTS

Certain common elements are designated as limited common elements. A limited common element is a portion of the common elements set aside for use by less than all of the unit owners. In most cases a specific limited common element (balcony) is for the use and enjoyment of single unit owner and occupants of the unit. The owner of a unit to which a limited common element is assigned has a specific right to use this limited common element and some restrictions are set forth in the condominium documents.

D. LESSEE’S RIGHTS

As shown in Florida Statutes 718.106 (4). "When a unit is leased, a tenant shall have all use rights in the association property and those common elements otherwise readily available for use generally by unit owners and the unit owner shall not have such rights except as a guest, unless such rights are waived in writing by the tenant. Nothing in this subsection shall interfere with the access rights of the unit owner as a landlord ..."

GOVERNMENT OF THE ASSOCIATION

E. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Condominium, referred to herein as the Association, is administered by a Board of Directors who act as trustees for each unit owner's interest in the common elements. The Board oversees the operations of the Association including, but not limited to:

finances, approval of prospective owners and tenants, insurance, staff, contractors and committees. Under the provisions of this Association’s documents, the Board of Directors consists of seven unit owners. No director may serve more than three consecutive years.

F. FINANCIAL AFFAIRS

Each year the Association compiles an annual budget which contains the estimated expenses which will have to be met in the coming calendar year, based on the services and programs offered at Riverhouse. The Board of Directors must also include in the budget adequate sums for reserves to cover known estimated future expenses called replacement reserves, major repairs or replacements of common elements.

G. ASSESSMENTS

The monthly assessment is the common expense multiplied by the percentage interest of each unit. It is 1/12 of the annual assessment, but is assessed on a monthly basis in accordance with the ownership documents. Each payment is due on the first day of each month without further notice. If not paid within 30 days, interest equal to 10 percent per annum will be charged as per the articles of incorporation.

In the event that an unforeseen expense arises for which insufficient funds have been budgeted for any calendar year, the Board of Directors may levy an additional assessment to make up the deficit. This assessment will be payable by unit owners either in a lump sum or in installments as determined by the Board. Although normal common expenses are apportioned among all unit owners, certain expenses are payable in their entirety by individual owners. If the Association must make a repair on behalf of an owner in an emergency, the charge for that repair must by borne by the owner.

H. RESERVES

Reserves are a way of setting aside money for future repair and replacement of major components of the common elements of the Condominium. They protect unit owners against some special assessments arising from unplanned expenditures incurred by the Association. It is the responsibility of the Board of Directors to determine what accounts must be established in addition to those specifically named by law. Reserves are calculated by means of a formula using the estimated life and replacement cost of each asset. We currently maintain reserve accounts for the following: Roofing, Painting, Paving, Building & Grounds, Clubhouse, Pool, Docks & Seawall, Elevator, Tennis Court, Irrigation System and Misc. (fence, lights, sheds ect.) Under Florida State Law, the requirement for reserves may be waived annually by the Association by a majority vote of owners at annual meeting. Such a waiver is effective for only one annual budget and the vote must be taken annually to continue to waive the statutory requirements.

I. OWNERS RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

After making such assessment, the Corporation shall have the right to have its employees and agents enter the unit at any time to do such work as deemed necessary by the Board of Directors of the Corporation to enforce compliance with the provisions hereof.

Use of docks and beach is restricted to vessels wholly owned by residents, except as provided below for vessels of visitors. The Manager and the Dockmaster assign dock and beach space. The dock and beach assignments may be changed only by their mutual permission, or by the Board of Directors.

When dock and beach space becomes available, notice will be forwarded to the next person on the list, at their currently recorded mailing address. If the Manager and Dockmaster are not contacted by said person within 14 days of the mailing, the next person on the list will be contacted. The non-responding person will remain at the head of the list until they either notify the Manager and Dockmaster that they are no longer interested, or they do not respond to two mailed notices.

Assignment is made on a first come-first assigned basis, and is subject to forfeit if unoccupied for more than thirty (30) days. An extension may be granted if a valid reason is presented to the Dockmaster in writing prior to the end of the 30 day period. Maintenance shall be considered the valid reason and such absence shall be limited to a maximum of 90 days. Written notice of a vessel’s removal for maintenance, and its expected date of return shall be provided to the Dockmaster within forty-eight (48) hours of its removal. Absence of more than thirty (30) days for maintenance shall require written proof of the validity of such maintenance. Any non-maintenance absence of more than thirty (30) days, or ninety (90) days for valid maintenance, shall result in the dock space being reassigned to the next available person on the waiting list.

If owner of absent vessel agrees, the Dockmaster may reassign the vacant space to another vessel on a short term, temporary basis. Such reassignment shall expire when the original vessel is ready for return to the dock. Owner of the returning vessel shall provide the Dockmaster with notice of intended return date at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to return. The reassigned vessel shall, upon notice to its owner from the Dockmaster, be removed within twenty-four (24) hours of notice.

The owner(s) of any vessel receiving dockage, on the water or beach, must sign and date a Daytona Riverhouse Dockage Agreement prior to receiving dock/beach space. The Dockage Agreement shall include a copy of the dock rules, a copy of the owner’s vessel insurance policy with proof of liability insurance in the minimum amount of $100,000.00, proof of ownership, and proof of valid Florida registration for current year (if vessel requires registration). This Dockage Agreement shall be kept on file in the Association office and must be kept current. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Dockage Agreement shall be valid basis for reassignment of dock space. All vessels at the docks, and on the beach, shall at all times display in plain sight a valid Riverhouse boat sticker for owner identification purposes.

When a unit owner rents his unit, he relinquishes his right as an owner to the use of the recreational facilities of Riverhouse, except as the guest of the renter. Therefore he loses his preferential treatment as an owner, and all dockage previously assigned on the basis of being an owner must be immediately vacated. Renter may make application to be placed on the dock space assignment list, but such placement follows the first come-first assigned basis. It shall be noted that dockage is part of the common elements of the complex, and no dockage is specifically assigned to or the specific right of any unit except as complies with these rules of assignment.

2. Rules of Enforcement

These Rules and Regulations will be enforced in accordance with the By-Laws of the Association, and may be changed from time to time by the Board of Directors.

3. Maintenance of Vessels

It is the responsibility of each vessel owner to maintain his vessel in all respects ready for the sea. An owner may at any time be required by the Dockmaster to demonstrate that his vessel is in operating condition.

Owners whose engines are inoperable must notify the Dockmaster immediately, and advise of remedial actions being taken.

The Owner shall be responsible for any damage caused to the dock or seawall by any of his, or his guest’s actions.

6. Noise

The rules of conduct applicable to all other areas of Riverhouse apply to the dock areas and vessels thereat. Equipment such as TV sets, radios, VCRs or loud hailers shall not be allowed to create a nuisance by being played at too high a volume. Rigging must be secured to prevent slapping and chattering.

7. Garbage and Waste

Garbage, refuse, or waste shall not be thrown overboard or otherwise disposed of into the harbor’s waters or onto piers. There shall be no discharge of oil, fuel, solvents, flammable liquids, poisons, or other pollutants.

The resident is responsible for the conduct of his visitors. Visits are limited to two weeks, and visitors must provide written proof of compliance with all requirements of the Dockage Package prior to occupying the dock or beach space.
