3.  Re-Subdivision: Lots in the subdivision shall not be re-subdivided, except the Declarant reserves the right to adjust the location of the various lot lines as may be necessary to assure the useability of a particular lot or group of lots. Not withstanding the foregoing, two lot owners may subdivide a lot lying between them, but only one residence shall be located on the combined original lot and the subdivided portion of any lot and adjoining property owners may adjust a common boundary line by the sale or exchange of property by such owners so long as such sale or exchange conforms in all respects with the zoning and subdivision ordinances for Granville County and does not result in the creation of any additional lots.

4.  Setbacks: Property owners shall comply with the building setbacks shown on the recorded plat of the subdivision or the setbacks required by Granville County Ordinances, whichever is the more stringent.

5.  Restrictions on Manufactured Housing: Manufactured housing shall be allowed on the property, provided such housing is less than 7 years of age at the time it is placed on the property, and is fully underskirted with masonry, vinyl or other underskirting specifically manufactured for such use. Declarant reserves the right to waive the age requirements for manufactured housing in specific instances where it determines that such proposed housing is compatible with other housing in the subdivision. All waivers shall be in writing and signed by the Declarant prior to placement of the home on the property.

6.  Livestock: No livestock or animals, except horses, may be raised or kept for any purpose, and no hogs shall be permitted on the property. This shall not prevent the keeping of customary household pets.

8.  Utilities: Each lot shall have its own well or other approved water source and septic tank or other approved waste disposal system. All water sources and waste disposal systems must comply with the standards set forth by the Granville County Health Department. All trash and garbage must be disposed of by a method approved by the Granville County Health Department or through a duly franchised waste disposal service operating in Granville County. No dumping shall be permitted in the subdivision. Each dwelling within the subdivision shall be connected to electric service prior to occupancy.

9.  Well and Septic Tank Locations: Locations of wells and septic tanks on individual lots shall be approved by the Declarant (in addition to local health authorities) prior to their installation in order to assure that all lots in the subdivision will have an appropriate location for such utilities.

11. Maintenance of Landscape: All yards and surrounding landscape shall be kept free of unsightly debris, neatly mowed and maintained at all times.

12. Effective Dates: These Protective Covenants shall remain in full force and effect and be binding on the property until January 1, 2011, after which time they shall be automatically extended for successive periods of 5 years each, unless by a vote of the majority of lot owners in the subdivision it is agreed to change, modify or abolish the covenants.
