PROPOSED RULES AND REGULATIONS For Townes at Remington Pointe (For consideration) Adopted in accordance with the authority

set forth in Section 18.4(h) of Illinois Condominium Property Act and the authority of the Board of Directors given under the Declaration of Condominium Ownership for the Townes of Remington Pointe Condominium Association with an effective date of ___________. PREAMBLE There are _______unit owners in the Townes at Remington Pointe, each with different opinions and lifestyles living in close proximity to each other. In order to preserve harmony, there must be a blend between the individuals rights and the needs of its community. The Boards goal is to maintain in good faith the trust of its Unit members by finding solutions that will reasonably accommodate our communitys needs, while maintaining the property as a first class Association and to provide the residents with specific information that will be reviewed by the Board of Directors on an on-going basis. The primary function of the Associations volunteer Board is outlined throughout the Declaration and By-laws as being responsible for the administrative operations and maintenance of the Common Elements, including but not limited to the collection of assessments, ensuring insurance, contracting vendors, and other operational and financial duties. The Association is already bound by its Declaration and By-laws, which has been shown to be sufficient thus far. Rules are not allowed to supersede or contest any municipal, county, and state laws, ordinances, provisions, or any federally protected rights. These adopted Rules only aim to add clarification for the purpose of the furthering the health, comfort, safety and general welfare of the Unit Owners and Occupants of the Property (By-Laws: Article VI, Section 1(q). p. 61), these are submitted with care and as a fiduciary of the Members. Let it be known that while the Board may adopt reasonable Rules, as provided, the voting members have 60 days to contest and veto any Rules adopted (By-Laws: Article IV Section 11). The Board, through its managing agent, must be notified of rule infractions by people that witness them, and file a report in writing (see attached form), otherwise the Rules cannot be enforced. General complaints must consist of at least 9 individual Unit owners, or 5% (which ever is less), before becoming a valid concern for the Board to review any new restrictions or covenants.

ATTENTION: NONE OF THESE CONCEPTS have been reviewed nor approved BY THE BOARD These are simply wild ideas (as discussion starting points) on how to work within the language of the Declaration (think out of the box), and make allowances for everyones needs.
