Firethorn
Agreement to Comply

The Owner and the Owner’s Agent (if different from the Owner) hereby certifies that he/she has read and understands the Firethorn Covenants and the Architectural Guidelines as established by the Firethorn Architectural Review Board(FARB), and the plans as approved by the FARB. Along with the execution of this agreement, the Owner is required to submit a check for the appropriate fees (see schedule) made out to Firethorn POA, for the purpose of ensuring that all aspects of the Covenants, Guidelines, and Contractor activities are adhered to. The impact fee shall be used on future road repairs, greenway and pavilion upkeep as will be needed as use of the facilities increase. Proof of liability insurance is also required.

If at any time during the period the Owner fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Covenants or Architectural Guidelines the FARB has the right to suspend all work until the violation is brought into compliance.

If the Owner fails to correct the violation within ten (10) days of written notification, the FARB will use the compliance deposit to bring the violation into compliance. In case of an emergency (as determined by the FARB), the FARB may waive the ten (10) day notification requirement. Any cost to correct the violation that exceeds the amount of the Construction Bond shall be borne solely by the Owner.

The unused portion of the Construction Bond (up to 100%) will be refunded to the Owner upon completion of the work covered by the FARB permit, to include landscaping. No interest will be paid by Firethorn to the Owner on the Construction Bond. In the case of new construction, the refund will be issued upon completion of the house, or completion of the landscaping, whichever is later.
