DESCRIPTION Continental Pond is located on the southwest corner of Weld Coun- ty Road 16 1/2 and Weld County Road 3 1/4. It is common property of the owners of Continental Pond P.U.D. The common property contains 24.9 acres, not counting that part of it occupied by county roads. Most of the area (19.0 acres) is occupied by a large pond that resulted from open -pit mining of sand and gravel along Boulder Creek. There are two islands (Mid- dle Island and South Island) that are commonly owned, each con- taining about 0.2 acres. This leaves 5.5 acres above water and accessible. There are no buildings on the property, nor are any planned; how- ever, a house located on a separate lot will occupy the peninsula in the north end of the pond. Four additional building lots oc- cupy the southeast corner of the forty. There are three islands in the pond; two are located on this own- ership, while the third (North Island) is located on the building lot occupied by the peninsula. Cattails have just started to invade the site and now occur in a band about twenty feet wide along the southeast shore. A shoal area east of Middle Island and most of the shoreline will proba- bly be occupied by them eventually. Currently, the green line consists mostly of sweet -clover and grasses. Annual precipitation is about 15 inches. Plant cover is entirely grass and forbs, except along Boulder Creek where plains cotton- woods have become established. Bedrock is a Cretaceous Age deposit of Pierre shale, 10,000 feet thick. The soils, however, are aquolls and aquents with gravelly substrata formed in alluvium deposited by Boulder Creek. A tiny remnant of Piney Creek alluvium, dating from a wet period during the Middle Ages, remains in the northwest part of the property. Mining has destroyed most of the soil profile, mixing layers or removing them. There are likely to be highly -erratic growth re- sponses from seedlings planted in this material. The porous na- ture of remaining material allows water to drain rapidly, making the use of weed barrier and/or supplemental watering desirable. 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 4 INVENTORY Currently, woody vegetation consists entirely of the cottonwoods described above, augmented with a scattering of Russian -olives. WILDLIFE The pond is currently used by ducks, egrets and a wide variety of other shorebirds. Hawks were observed during field work. No threatened or endangered species have been observed, but the ponds are within the winter range of the bald eagle and in an area used by the interior least tern. Activities that enhance habitat for the latter species would receive funding priority under the Stewardship Incentives Program. Also, cost -share funding may be available through the Colorado Division of Wildlife and/or Ducks Unlimited. PLANTING PROJECTS Hedgerow Planting, Northwest Corner: Purpose: To provide a sheltered area along Boulder Creek for eventual (after expiration of cost -sharing obliga- tions) donation to Weld County as a greenbelt area. Description: This is a two -row planting around the pe- rimeter of the site. It is 950 feet long and 28 feet wide, including 10 -foot buffer strips on each side. It occupies 0.6 acres. Under SIP it is eligible for a maxi- mum of $171 for site preparation and planting and $465 for weed barrier, the two not to exceed $600. The outer row consists of 150 Rocky Mountain junipers on a six-foot spacing. The inner row is located eight feet from the juniper row and consists of 120 ponderosa pines on an eight -foot spacing. 150 Rocky Mountain junipers @ $0.91 ea.: 120 Ponderosa pines @ $0.91 ea.: 2000 Staples @ $43.40/1000: 6.2 6' rolls Weed Barrier @ $100.00/roll: SUB -TOTAL Sales Tax (3%) TOTAL, MATERIALS: LABOR, PLANTING; 270 trees @ $2.00 ea.: LABOR, WEED BARRIER; 6.2 rolls @ $96 ea.: GRAND TOTAL $ 136.50 109.20 86.80 620.00 $ 952.50 28.58 $ 981.08 540.00 787.20 $2308.28 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 5 GRAND TOTAL From Stewardship Incentives Program: Net Cost: $2308.28 -600.00 $1708.28 Forester's Note: Hedgerow plantings are not high priori- ty under SIP. It is not likely that this planting will be funded. Hedgerow Planting, West Side: Purpose: To shelter Continental Pond from traffic and provide a windbreak to the pond and shore areas on the west side. To maintain habitat diversity, a strip ap- proximately fifty feet wide will be left in existing plant cover between the hedgerow and the pond along the west side of the property. Along Weld County Road 16 1/2, the strip will vary in width between sixty feet and nothing. Description: This is a two -row planting along the road and property line. It is 1448 feet long and 28 feet wide, including 10 -foot buffer strips on each side. It occupies 0.9 acres. Under SIP it is eligible for a maxi- mum of $258 for site preparation and planting and $698 for weed barrier, the two not to exceed $900. The outer row consists of 350 American plums on a four -foot spa- cing. The inner row is located eight feet from the plum row and consists of 210 Rocky Mountain junipers on a six- foot spacing. 350 American plums @ $0.39 ea.: 210 Rocky Mountain junipers @ $0.91 ea.: Sub -total: Bulk Discount (5%): Seedlings: 3000 Staples @ $43.40/1000: 9.5 6' rolls Weed Barrier @ $100.00/roll: Sub -total: Sales Tax (3%) Total, Materials: LABOR, PLANTING; 560 trees -@ $2.00 ea.: LABOR, WEED BARRIER; 9.5 rolls @ $96 ea.: GRAND TOTAL From Stewardship Incentives Program: From DOW, F&G &/or DU: Net Cost: $ 136.50 191.10 $ 327.60 16.38 $ 311.22 130.20 950.00 $1392.42 41.74 $1433.16 1120.00 912.00 $3465.16 -900.00 $2565.16 1732.58 $ 832.58 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 6 Forester's Note: Money from the wildlife programs is highly speculative. This is the maximum possible for this planting; the actual amount, if any, could be a lot less. Wildlife Thicket (Southwest Corner): Purpose: 1. To provide escape cover and ameliorate the preda- tor -lane effect of the hedgerow planting. 2. To shelter the southwest corner of the property, creating a protected area for ground -nesting birds. 3. To create a nesting site near water for mourning doves. Description: Thicket #1: A 1/10 -acre thicket (SIP -8, WH2) in the southwest corner of the property, is planned. It oc- cupies 0.1 acres and benefits 3.0 acres. American plums on a 4'X4' spacing will form a thick area for small animal shelter. It will require 250 seedlings and extend 93 feet north and 93 feet east of the prop- erty corner.

Prices are approximate and subject to change. Bulk rates are available if you do several projects at once and order enough trees. If you do the work yourself, you can charge your own labor as a reimbursable cost. If you are a farmer, these costs are tax de- ductible as a conservation expense on Schedule F, 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 7 as are other costs listed below. Otherwise, you may add these costs to your basis for capital gains treatment. Check with a professional tax preparer for details. Wildlife funds are highly specula- tive.

Prices are approximate and subject to change. Wildlife funds are highly speculative. MAINTENANCE The use of weed barrier just about eliminates the need for main- tenance, if it can be placed by mid -June (preferably June 1st). The only thing needed is an occasional inspection tour to re -an- chor weed barrier that comes loose. Watering will increase sur- vival and growth, but it is not needed. You can expect about 15% loss during the first year a planting is in the ground. One year after planting, seedlings usually look terrible. Tenth -acre shrub thickets can tolerate about 30% loss without replanting, but windbreaks must be replanted if they suf- fer even minor losses to keep from losing their effectiveness. These maintenance plantings may be cost -shared and generally pay the entire 65% (A 2500 -tree planting put in two years ago at a 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 9 cost of about $8700 cost only $181 to maintain in the second year; this is unusually small; 15% loss is normal, but big losses do occasionally occur.). By the third year, transplant losses should no longer be a problem. A seedling is considered estab- lished after surviving five years. Gaps in a windbreak are disastrous - wind blows harder through the gap than it does on the open plain. Gaps wider than 1.5 times the specified spacing should be filled with trees at the next maintenance planting. There are a number of things that should be done to enhance seed- ling survival and growth: Grass is a vigorous competitor with tree seedlings. It drinks up water and adds compounds to soil to poison compe- tition. Seedlings grow much better if they don't have to fight it. Weed barrier is a woven plastic cloth. It kills grass. Laid around tree seedlings, it provides needed relief from competition. It is expensive ($2.00 per tree for widely - spaced trees). It is cheaper if seedlings are placed close together (like plums). Weed barrier used in windbreaks can be cost -shared. In 1/10 -acre shrub patches, the cost of weed barrier is included in the totals. Maintenance is the landowner's responsibility. The above prices do not include things like re -anchoring weed barrier after a storm, or watering seedlings should drought threaten the planting during the first summer (Although, this can be arranged.). MAINTAIN THE PRACTICE Cost -sharing rules require that a planting for which Federal mon- ey is paid, must be maintained for a period of ten years, begin- ning October 1st, following the date the cost -sharing check is cashed. You cannot deliberately destroy the planting and if the planting is accidently destroyed (by fire, for example), it must be replaced (Cost -sharing may be used for replacement.). If the property is sold, the new owner must agree to maintain the practice for the balance of the ten years, or the old owner must repay the cost -sharing money plus interest (18% per year) plus "liquidated damages (25%, one time only)." A participant may leave the program at any time by repaying the cost -sharing, plus interest, plus liquidated damages. 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 10 RECOMMENDATIONS The plantings listed above are recommended. No particular time- table is required. Plantings are "required" only in that in or- der to obtain cost -sharing, a wildlife practice and a wood -pro- ducing planting must be included. If these are planted first, there is no further requirement as to what order (or even whe- ther) additional plantings are done. Respectfully Submitted By: Douglas J.

Crabb, Soil Conservation Service Soil Survey of Weld County, Colorado, Southern Part 13 This nearly level map unit is on bottom lands and flood plains of all the major streams in (southern Weld County). Aquolls, which have a dark colored surface layer, make up about 60 percent of the unit. Aquents, which have a light colored surface layer, make up about 35 percent. About 5 percent is Aquepts and Bankard sandy loam. These are deep, poorly drained soils that formed in recent allu- vium. No one pedon is typical. Commonly the soils have a mot- tled, mildly alkaline to moderately alkaline loamy or clayey sur- face layer and underlying material and are underlain by sand or sand and gravel within 48 inches. In places they have a gleyed layer in the underlying material. Most of the acreage is subject to flooding. The water table is at or near the surface in early spring and recedes to as deep as 48 inches late in fall in some years. These soils are used for rangeland and wildlife habitat. Some small areas have been reclaimed by major drainage and leveling and are used for irrigated crops. The potential native vegetation is dominated by alkali sacaton, switchgrass and western wheatgrass. Saltgrass, sedge, rush and alkali bluegrass are also prominent. Potential production ranges from 3,000 pounds per acre in favorable years to 2,000 pounds in unfavorable years. As range condition deteriorates, the switch - grass, alkali sacaton, and western wheatgrass decrease and salt - grass, sedge and rush increase. Management of vegetation should be based on taking half and leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding is difficult because numerous tilling practices are required to eliminate the saltgrass sod. Switchgrass, western wheatgrass, alkali sacaton, tall wheatgrass, and tall fescue are suitable for seeding. They can be seeded into a clean firm seedbed. Seedbed preparation usually requires more than 1 year to eliminate the saltgrass sod. A grass drill should be used. Seeding early in spring has proven most successful. Wetland wildlife, especially waterfowl, utilize this unit. The wetland plants provide nesting and protective cover, as well as some food. The nearby irrigated cropland, where wildlife obtain much of their food and find protective cover, makes this unit 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 14 valuable to both wetland and openland wildlife. Openland wildlife, especially pheasant, use this unit for cover and nesting. Deer find excellent cover in some areas. These valuable wildlife areas should be protected from fire and fenced to prevent encroachment and overuse by livestock. They should not be drained. These soils have good potential as a source of sand and gravel. Capability class VIw; Salt Meadow range site. 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 15 R. L. Hoover D. L. Willis Managing Forested Lands for Wildlife MOURNING DOVE The morning dove is found throughout Colorado. While doves may be seen occasionally at high elevations, such habitats are not considered an integral portion of the mourning dove's range. Most doves migrate out of Colorado by early fall but a few occasionally winter in the State. ECOSYSTEMS USED Forested ecosystems used spring, summer and fall by this species and relative abundance of the species in each are shown below. Ecosystem used Relative abundance Subalpine Forest Douglas Fir Ponderosa Pine Lodgepole Pine Aspen Pinyon -Juniper Gambel Oak High Elevation Riparian Cottonwood Riparian Uncommon Uncommon Common Uncommon Uncommon Abundant Abundant Uncommon Abundant HABITAT REQUIREMENTS Various habitat characteristics and requirements of this dove are presented here. REARING REQUIREMENTS. - Mourning doves nest in a very diverse range of sites. Nesting occurs on open ground when more desira- ble sites, such as evergreen or deciduous trees, are not availa- ble. Preferred sites are large horizontal branches in dense evergreen or deciduous trees along forest edges. Whatever the site, a poorly constructed nest of sticks and twigs is used. Males may defend small territories around nests. Drinking water should be available within 1/2 mile of the nest site. While longer flights to water will be made, the increased distances 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 16 detract from the value of nest sites. FEEDING REQUIREMENTS. - The seeds of annual forbs, annual grass- es, and cultivated crops constitute nearly 100% of the dove's di- et. These food items must be obtained after the seeds have fal- len and are exposed on the soil surface. Bird feeders may also be used in urban areas. Doves may fly some distance from roosts to obtain food and water. COVER REQUIREMENTS. - Trees and shrubs are desirable for roost- ing; however, doves will roost on the ground in open grass-forb vegetation if more suitable sites are not available. Trees near feeding areas are often used as nesting sites. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS. - As an aid to digestion, mourning doves must have grit, which reportedly is replenished daily. Availa- bility of grit is seldom a problem for these birds, however. MINIMUM VIABLE POPULATION AND HABITAT AREA Estimates of minimum viable populations are not available in the literature. Therefore, for the purpose of this book, it is as- sumed that such a population would contain 50 birds. This popu- lation is assumed to require 1,280 acres of optimum habitat. R. L. Hoover D. L. Willis Managing Forested Lands for Wildlife GREAT BLUE HERON The great blue heron occurs in riparian habitats statewide. Be- cause this species is dependent on water areas for feeding, it will not be found great distances from water. ECOSYSTEMS USED The only forested ecosystem in which the great blue heron occurs is Cottonwood Riparian. It is fairly common except for winter months, when it is uncommon. 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 17 HABITAT REQUIREMENTS Various habitat characteristics and requirements for this species are presented here. REARING REQUIREMENTS. - Great blue herons generally select trees that are near water for their nesting colonies. Mature and old - growth cottonwood trees, 18 to 43 inches in d.b.h. and 55 to 75 feet in height and taller than the surrounding canopy, are pre- ferred for nesting colonies in Colorado. While herons appear to be intolerant of disturbance during nesting and brooding, birds in some rookeries appear to adapt to human disturbances. It is recommended that nesting areas be kept free of human disturbance within a 1/4 mile radius of the nesting colony during the breeding season. FEEDING REQUIREMENTS. - These herons feed on aquatic animals found in water, generally less than 12 inches deep, along banks of rivers, streams, lakes, and in wet meadows. Feeding areas must be within 2.5 miles of nest sites. While feeding territo- ries are often established during breeding season, these territo- ries are not static with respect to size or location. COVER REQUIREMENTS. - The great blue heron's requirements for nesting appear to be the only specific cover requirement. It will use any structural stage for resting cover. MINIMUM VIABLE POPULATION AND HABITAT AREA Estimates of minimum viable populations of this species are not available in the literature. For the purpose of this book, it is estimated that such a population would consist of 20 herons. Such a population would require 150 acres of disturbance -free nesting area with suitable feeding areas nearby. 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 18 PLAINS COTTONWOOD (Populus deltoides var. occidentalis Rydb.) William M. Harlow, Ph.D., SUNY College of Forestry Ellwood S. Harrar, Ph.D., Duke School of Forestry Textbook of Dendrology BOTANICAL FEATURES Leaves 3" to 6" long, 4" to 5" wide; shape deltoid to ovate -del- toid; margin crenate -serrate, the teeth glandular; apex acuminate to acute; base truncate to cordate; surfaces lustrous green, gla- brous above, somewhat paler and glabrous below; petiole flat- tened, 11" to 3" long, glandular. Fruit k" to 1" long, ovoid, 3- or 4 -valved; seeds about 350,000 (200,000-590,000) to the pound. Twigs stout, angular, yellowish brown, glabrous; terminal buds about ¢" long, narrowly ellipsoidal to conical, lustrous brown, resinous, covered by 6 or 7 imbricated scales; lateral buds some- what smaller, divergent. Bark light greenish yellow on young stems, eventually becoming ash -gray and dividing into thick, flattened or rounded ridges separated by deep fissures. GENERAL DESCRIPTION This species, the most important of the eastern poplars, is a me- dium-sized to large tree 80 to 100 ft high and 3 to 4 ft in diam- eter (max. 175 by 12 ft). Open -grown trees have a spreading crown supported by a massive trunk which is often divided near the ground and terminates below in an extensive superficial root system; in the forest, the bole is long, clear, and cylindrical, and the crown much smaller. Not common in the Northeast and Appalachian regions, eastern cot- tonwood, together with its varieties or closely related species, covers a wide range from the Rocky Mountains to the southern At- lantic Coast. It is especially common on moist alluvial soils through the plains and prairie states, where a winding belt of green cottonwood crowns usually indicates the presence of a stream or water course. Although not found naturally on dry soils, this species was planted extensively around homesteads by the early settlers and when once established has proved to be relatively drought resistant. On the best alluvial soils in the Mississippi Valley growth is exceedingly fast, and young trees commonly grow 5 ft or more in 951284 STEWARDSHIP INCENTIVES PLAN 19 height and 1 in. in diameter yearly. Cottonwood is very intoler- ant and occurs in pure stands or open mixtures with such species as black willow, sycamore, American elm, and some of the bottom - land oaks. In the South, cottonwood may seed in on old fields in mixture with sweetgum, by which it is eventually replaced. Like other poplars, eastern cottonwood liberates large quantities of silky -haired seeds which may travel by air or on the surface of water for many miles. Although germination is high (60 to 90 percent), vitality is transient, and this probably accounts for the distribution of the species along water courses where in late spring moist silt is available for the sprouting seeds. Propaga- tion by cuttings is good, and young trees produced in this way make rapid growth; two -year -old trees sometimes attain heights of 30 ft and diameters of nearly 5 in. Cottonwood is a short-lived species; trees over 70 years old rapidly deteriorate, and the maximum life span is probably not greater than two centuries.

Colorado 80302 (303) 442-0428 Good news! The committee approved a total of $4380 in SIP cost - sharing to help defray costs of installing the plantings on your property in Weld County. Bill Noonan told me over the phone that his program would commit to another $1500, ear -marked for the noise barrier along the south, west and northwest sides of the pond, but I do not have written confirmation of this. If you have anything, please send me a copy. The $4380 is in two parts: $280 for the plum thicket in the southwest corner and $4100 for the rest. The hedgerow along Boulder Creek was not funded, so I am putting it off until next year. I think if we redesign it, we might stand a better chance of being funded. CHIP will not fund a project where SIP money is being used. CHIP may pay up to 85% of the cost of a project, but getting it is of- ten a problem, depending on the degree of interest of the local wildlife officer. At any rate, we have $5880, counting Bill Noonan's contribution and as they say, a bird in the hand.... I have enclosed two copies of the planting agreement. Please sign and return one copy to me. Also, please send the initial check for $1366.58, payable to CSFS, to me at this address. Do this right away; I cannot order the seedlings until I receive the check and the nursery is selling out (Note that we are planting eastern red -cedars instead of Rocky Mountain junipers; the nursery is out of Rockies.). I would appreciate it very much if you could also send the check for materials ($4519.23) at the same time. If this is a problem, you can wait until March 17th. Labor charges will be broken into small pieces. I will have to hire help and I don't know yet exactly who the money will go to. I will probably have a helper on the state pay -roll and a private contractor (Carl Miller of Elk Falls) has helped me in the past. I will let you know who to send money to and how much as each component of the planting is finished. We have the owner pay subcontractors directly. CSU Accounting takes a 15% charge for each check they write. If we can bypass them, we reduce costs which would otherwise have to be passed on 951284 to our customers. In this case, that comes to $1409.00. This practice will not affect your total cost. We have planting capability, so if one subcontractor runs a little high, we can finish the project with our own people and honor the agreement as written. Again, please send one copy of the agreement and the checks, particularly the one for the seedlings, to me as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please call.

ARTICLE III Membership - Association 3.01 General Purposes and Powers. The Association, through the Executive Board, shall perform management functions as provided in this 4 951284 Declaration. Any purchaser of a Unit or a parcel within the Properties shall be deemed to have assented to, ratified and approved such designations and management. The Association shall have all the power necessary or desirable to effectuate such purposes. 3.02 Articles and Bylaws. The purposes and powers of the Association and its rights and obligations set forth in this Declaration may be amplified by provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Association. In the event either the Articles or Bylaws conflict with the Declaration, the Declaration shall control. In the event the Articles conflict with the Bylaws, the Articles shall control. 3.03 Membership. Every record Owner of a fee interest in any Unit which is subject to an Annual Assessment or any record owner of a Parcel located in the Properties which is subject to an annual assessment, shall be a Member of the Association, including contract sellers; provided that any such person or entity who holds such interest merely as security for the performance of an obligation shall not be a Member. Record ownership of a Unit or Parcel shall be the sole qualification for such membership. Where more than one person holds interest in any Unit, all such persons shall be Members in proportion to their share of ownership in the Unit. If only one of the multiple Owners is present, such Owner is entitled to cast the entire vote for such Unit. If more than one Owner is present, the vote for such Unit may be cast only in accordance with the agreement of a majority in interest of the Owners with a majority agreement in existence if one Owner casts the vote without protest being made promptly by any of the other Owners of said Unit. 3.04 Voting Interest. The Association shall have one class of voting memberships. Members shall be all Owners and shall be entitled to one vote for each Unit owned. The vote for such Unit, the ownership of which is held by more than one Owner, shall be exercised as they determine between themselves. Should the joint owners be unable, within a reasonable time, to agree upon how they will vote any issue, they shall be passed over and the right to vote on such issue shall be lost. In no event shall more than one vote be cast with respect to any one Unit. Each Unit shall have allocated to it a percentage of the expenses of the Association and voting interest equivalent to one Unit in relation to the total number of Units in existence at such time of assessment or vote. Units owned by Declarant shall not receive any special benefit relating to assessments or voting rights. As additional Units are added so as to be covered by this Declaration, each Unit's obligation for assessments and related to voting rights shall be proportionately reduced. 3.05 Reservation. Notwithstanding the foregoing voting rights, Declarant reserves the right to appoint the Executive Board of the Association until the occurrence of one of the following events: a) Within sixty (60) days after conveyance to Unit Owners other than Declarant, of twenty-five percent (25%) of the units that may be created, at least one member and not less than 5 951284 twenty-five percent (25%) of the members of the Executive Board must be elected by Unit Owners other than the Declarant. b) Within sixty (60) days after conveyance to Unit Owners other than Declarant of fifty percent (50%) of units that may be created, not less than thirty-three and one-third percent (33-1/3%) of the members of the Executive Board must be elected by Unit Owners other than the Declarant. c) Within sixty (60) days after conveyance to Unit Owners other than a Declarant, of seventy-five percent (75%) of the Units which may be created within two (2) years after the last conveyance of a Unit by the Declarant in the ordinary course of business or within two (2) years after any right to add new units was last exercised, all members of the Executive Board must be elected by Unit Owners and no members may be appointed by Declarant. In addition, Declarant may voluntarily surrender the right to appoint members of the Executive Board, but in such event, may continue to require Declarant's approval for certain specified actions as described in a recorded instrument executed by Declarant at such time. For the purposes of this Declaration, the maximum number of units which shall be subject to the provisions hereunder and which the Declarant reserves the right to create shall be five. Declarant reserves the right at any time within ten (10) years from the date this Declaration is recorded, to add additional real property to this common interest community. Said additional real property is not described hereunder but shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total area described on Exhibit A attached hereto. 3.06 Indemnification. The Association shall indemnify every director, officer, agent or employee, and any former director, officer, agent or employee against loss, costs, and expense, including reasonable attorney fees incurred in connection with any action, suit, or proceeding in which such person may be made a party by reason of being, or having been such director, officer agent or employee of the Association or Executive Board. This indemnification shall not apply to acts where such person is liable for gross negligence or fraud. Any such indemnification may only be paid out of the insurance coverage furnishing Officers and Directors of the Association errors and omissions insurance coverage or similar coverage.

At least thirty days prior to the close of the Association's fiscal year, the Executive Board shall determine subject to the provisions of this Declaration, the Annual Assessment which is payable by each Unit. The Annual Assessment may be later adjusted upon a finding of necessity by the Executive Board, but no more than twice in any one year. Written notice of any such Assessment or adjustment shall be sent to every Owner as such Owners are listed in the records of the Association. The omission or failure of the Board to levy any Assessment or fail to send notice shall not be deemed a waiver, modification or a release of the Owners from their obligation to pay the Assessment. c) Non -exemption. No Owner or any person obligated to pay an Assessment may waive or otherwise escape liability for any Assessments provided for herein by non-use of the Common Areas and Maintenance Property, abandonment of his or her Unit, or by any other action. 4.04 Maximum Annual Assessment. a) Until the second annual assessment period, the maximum Annual Assessment shall be $500.00 per Unit. b) From and after the second annual assessment period, the maximum Annual Assessment may be increased each year not more than twenty percent (20%) above the maximum Assessment for the previous year. c) On an annual basis, after consideration of current maintenance costs, the current financial situation and future needs of the Association, the Executive Board shall fix the Annual Assessment at any amount not in excess of the maximum Assessment allowed 8 951284 under this section without any voting or approval requirements of the Members. d) The maximum Annual Assessment may be increased above that allowed in paragraph "b" of this section by a vote of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Members who are voting in person or by proxy, at a meeting duly called for this purpose. 4.05 Special Assessments.

This requirement shall not apply to expenditures made by the Executive Board for repairs in the event of damage or destruction as set forth in Article VII of this Declaration. 4.06 Uniform Manner of Assessment.

In addition, at the option of the Executive Board, any Assessment, either Annual or Special, may be collected on a monthly or quarterly basis. 4.07 Date of Commencement of Assessments; Prorations; Due Date.

Any Assessment not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date, shall bear interest from the due date at the rate 9 951284 of 18% per annum. The failure to make payment within sixty days of the due date thereof shall cause the total amount of such Owner's Annual Assessment for the remainder of that fiscal year to become immediately due and payable at the option of the Executive Board, without further notice. b) The Association may bring an action at law or equity against the Owner obligated to pay the Assessment or undertake any other remedies allowed by law. In the event it shall become necessary for the Executive Board to collect any delinquent Assessments in any manner, the delinquent Owner shall pay, in addition to the Assessment, interest and late fees as herein provided, all costs of collection including reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred by the Association. c) The Association is hereby granted a continuing lien against an Owner's Unit for payment of any Assessment which the Owner fails to make as required by this Declaration. Such lien shall attach at the time of levy of the Assessment and continue until such Assessment, together with all late fees, interest and costs of collection,including reasonable attorneys fees are paid in full. The lien hereby given shall also be a lien upon all of the rents and profits of the encumbered Unit. The lien hereunder may be foreclosed upon by the Association as provided by the laws of the State of Colorado for foreclosure of mortgages and deeds of trust on real property or as provided by the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act. The Association shall have all rights in this regard as provided by the Colorado Revised Statutes. Subject to the rights of a first mortgagee, except as such rights are modified by the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act; except as such rights if a foreclosure action is filed to foreclose any Assessment lien, and an Owner abandons or leaves vacant his or her Dwelling Unit, the Executive Board may take possession and rent said dwelling Unit or apply for the appointment of a receiver for the Dwelling Unit without prior notice to the Owner. In the event an Owner is in default on any obligation secured by an encumbrance on a Unit in the subdivision, the Executive Board, at its option, may pay the amount due on said obligation and shall have a lien for said amount against the Unit which lien shall attach in the manner as provided for unpaid Assessments. d) The lien of all Assessments created and defined by the Declaration shall be superior to any homestead exemption as is now or may hereafter be provided by Colorado or Federal law. The acceptance of a deed to a Lot or Unit subject to this 10 951284 Declaration shall constitute a waiver of the homestead exemption as against such lien described hereunder. e) In the event any lien is required to be filed and released to enforce collection hereunder, all costs of preparation, filing and release shall be paid by the Owner as a cost of collection. 4.09 Reconstruction Assessments. In accordance with Article VII of this Declaration, the Association shall have the authority to impose and levy a Reconstruction Assessment against all Units for reconstruction of Common Areas or Maintenance Property and for payment of insurance premiums.

Cat2ANc) -TZ7Tm- MAINTENANCE 4i 84101 The use of weed barrier just about eliminates the need for main- tenance, if it can be placed by mid -June (preferably June 1st). The only thing needed is an occasional inspection tour to re -an- chor weed barrier that comes loose. Watering will increase sur- vival and growth, but it is not needed. You can expect about 15% loss during the first year a planting is in the ground. One year after planting, seedlings usually look terrible. Tenth -acre shrub thickets can tolerate about 30% loss without replanting, but windbreaks must be replanted if they suf- fer even minor losses to keep from losing their effectiveness. These maintenance plantings may be cost -shared and generally pay the entire 65% (A 2500 -tree planting put in two years ago at a Page 8 951.284 8 00 Q for °°Q aa f I `f z0 t. a9 tj cl' d` 00 cipcD dj 7 itg BOTANICAL NAME c 01 O O 00 v� QeL. -43 40- i=110 tEc 0( N t a 0.6 in O Q65 Q$ O, DlpctIna00� c fl is Oic 2- m- Q V s 0� c _'c c• 0 0 ELL >> i a`a114u_au_o wad' ? ��un��iAtnn=cvm ('f Page 9 951284 UH' UU15I HaSUG HALE UI TURN - QULST ASSOCIATES 2769 IRIS AVE.

Weld County Attorney this morning and we discussed his memo as follows: 1. We have no problem with the $2,000 warranty collateral if the board requires it. For your information the wildlife planting by the Colorado State Forest Service are in progress and should be completed shortly. In addition, we have taken bids on the water and gas line extensions and plan to complete them as soon as the P[TD is approved and recorded. We will apply for a release on these items as soon as they are complete and approved. The only items remaining will be the landscaping (other than the wildlife plantings) and the cul-de-sac which will be done as soon the house construction is sufficiently complete. The amounts for these two items is minor. 2. We have contacted Bank One and hope to have a revised letter of credit with a three years automatic renewal clause to take with us to the meeting tomorrow. If this can't be done we will have it within a few days and will send it to you immediately. 3. Lee said that this item was just a comment for the board as he felt that our covenants had adequate assessment authority. In any event, Exhibit B is the plat itself which defines lots 6 & 7 as the common areas and lots 1-5 as individual building lots.
