Any major capital improvement to the water or sewer system such as, but not limited to, a new water tank or sewer improvement due to new regulations on emissions shall be considered a common expense to be shared by all property owners. The annual assessments provided for herein shall commence on January 1, 2002, and shall be in such amount as the Board shall specify. Until the Board specifies the amount of the annual assessment, such assessment shall be in the sum of $300.00. After the Board has set the amount of the annual assessment, such amount shall be the annual assessment for each year thereafter until the Board by appropriated action changes the amount of the annual assessment. The annual assessment for any year shall become due and payable on the 1st day of January of each year and shall be considered delinquent if not paid by March 1st of each year, or at such other date as is designated by the Board.
certificate in writing signed by an officer of the Association,
setting
forth whether such assessment has been paid. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of payment of any assessment therein stated to have been paid. If an assessment is not paid on the date due, then such assessment shall become delinquent and shall, together with interest and costs of collection, thereupon become a continuing lien on the property which shall bind such property in the hands of the owners, his or her heirs, devisees, personal representatives and assigns. The personal obligation of the then owner to pay such assessment, however, shall remain his or her personal obligation and shall not pass to his or her successors in title unless expressly assumed by them. If the assessment is not paid when due, the assessment shall bear interest from the date of delinquency at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum, and the Association may bring an action at law against the owner personally obligated to pay the same or an action to foreclose the lien against the property, or both, and there shall be added to the amount of such assessment and interest the reasonable attorneys fees incurred in collection. No owner may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments provided for herein by non-use of the services and facilities provided or by abandonment of his or her lot. The lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage now or hereafter placed upon a property subject to assessment; provided, however, that such subordination shall apply only to the assessment which shall have become due and payable prior to the sale or transfer of such property pursuant to a foreclosure, or any other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve such property from liability for any assessments thereafter becoming due, nor from the lien of any such subsequent assessment. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve the personal obligation of the property owner for the assessments coming due during the time he owned the property.

At least annually, the Board shall fix the rate of assessment for use of the sewer and water system to be charged for the ensuing physical year or until otherwise reviewed and adjusted by the Board, such rate to be expressed in terms of an amount charged per 1,000 gallons of metered usage. Prior to fixing the rate of assessment for sewer and water usage, the board shall meet and adopt a tentative budget of the estimated amounts required to pay the expenses of operating the sewer and water system including a reserve fund for repair of the water and sewer system. In establishing the estimates of proposed expenditures for the various purposes and amounts needed for reserves, the Board shall consult with and consider the recommendations of the operator of the water and sewer system for the Association. After adopting the sewer and water budget, the board shall adopt rates of assessment sufficient to raise the amounts estimated to be required in said budget including the cost of operating and maintaining the system as well as any reserve requirements.

Until the Board specifies the amount of the annual assessment, such assessment shall be in the sum of $300.00. After the Board has set the amount of the annual assessment, such amount shall be the annual assessment for each year thereafter until the Board by appropriated action changes the amount of the annual assessment. The annual assessment for any year shall become due and payable on the 1st day of January of each year and shall be considered delinquent if not paid by March 1st of each year, or at such other date as is designated by the Board.
- Special Assessment. In the event the sums derived from the water and sewer assessments and annual assessments are inadequate to pay the expense of construction, operation, maintenance, repair or improvement of the water and sewer system, roads and common areas and facilities located thereon, the association may levy and collect additional special assessments for such purposes from time to time, as determined by the Board. Special assessments shall become due and payable thirty (30) days after the date on which the Board sets the amount of the special assessment unless some other date is specified by the Board.
- Collection of Assessments. Written notice of any annual or special assessment shall be sent to every owner subject thereto not later than seven (7) days after fixing a date of commencement thereof. The Association shall, on demand, and for a reasonable charge, furnish to any owner liable for said assessment a
certificate in writing signed by an officer of the Association,
setting
forth whether such assessment has been paid. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of payment of any assessment therein stated to have been paid. If an assessment is not paid on the date due, then such assessment shall become delinquent and shall, together with interest and costs of collection, thereupon become a continuing lien on the property which shall bind such property in the hands of the owners, his or her heirs, devisees, personal representatives and assigns. The personal obligation of the then owner to pay such assessment, however, shall remain his or her personal obligation and shall not pass to his or her successors in title unless expressly assumed by them. If the assessment is not paid when due, the assessment shall bear interest from the date of delinquency at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum, and the Association may bring an action at law against the owner personally obligated to pay the same or an action to foreclose the lien against the property, or both, and there shall be added to the amount of such assessment and interest the reasonable attorneys fees incurred in collection. No owner may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments provided for herein by non-use of the services and facilities provided or by abandonment of his or her lot. The lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage now or hereafter placed upon a property subject to assessment; provided, however, that such subordination shall apply only to the assessment which shall have become due and payable prior to the sale or transfer of such property pursuant to a foreclosure, or any other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve such property from liability for any assessments thereafter becoming due, nor from the lien of any such subsequent assessment. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve the personal obligation of the property owner for the assessments coming due during the time he owned the property.
- Combining of Lots for Purposes of Assessments not Allowed. Annual and special assessments shall apply to each lot in the subdivision. Under no circumstances shall lots be combined for purposes of assessments. One or more lots combined by an owner for purposes of constructing one residence shall continue to be assessed as separate lots. However, this restriction on combining lots shall not apply to Lots 8 and 9, on which there is currently located one residence in that said lots have been combined for purposes of assessments by the Association for many years with approval of the
