Why Amend Plat Restrictions & Covenants?

12/05/2019

In the Plat Restrictions & Covenants we are requesting an amendment allowing changes to be made. Our current Plat Restrictions & Covenants still have the developers name on the top. That company no longer exists and hasn’t for years. Our plats are not easy to navigate. One of those “other concerns” is to reorganize and add titles to each section for easier searching. Our GLNA Bylaws were updated in 2006. Communication is no longer just with pen and paper; we added digital wording. Prices have increased and we made some adjustments there. So, our PR & C need some adjustments also.

We (the board) are requesting to add the flexibility to make those changes with the approval of a majority of owners when the need arises. We have spent so much time and hard work getting to this point. We would appreciate your support in this endeavor. There is no hidden agenda, there is nothing the board gains from this personally. You can ask us any questions. We just want our neighborhood to remain a stable, desireable and safe place in which to live. 

Revised Proposed Amendment.

The amended language reads, “The within covenants, limitations and restrictions shall run with the land and shall be binding on all parties and persons claiming under them.  Such provisions shall be in full force and effect until January 1, 2020, at which time said covenants shall be automatically extended for successive periods of ten (10) years unless by vote of the majority of the then owners of the lots it is agreed to change the covenants in whole or in part.  Additionally, the covenants may be amended at any time thereafter upon the written consent of a majority of the then owners of the lots.  Invalidation of any of the covenants by judgment or court order shall in no way affect any of the other provisions which shall remain in full force and effect.”
