Section 1. Initial Landscaping. Prior to occupancy of any residential building on a Lot, the front and back yards of the Lot shall be landscaped and, the rear yard of the Lot, shall be fenced. The Lot shall be fully landscaped within one year after occupancy of the residential building on the Lot. However, if weather conditions or ground conditions due to weather are such that it is not reasonable to landscape the Lot within the time provided, the time for completion of the landscaping shall be extended for a period of 60 days after weather conditions and ground conditions due to weather are reasonable for landscaping. Any dispute over the time when weather or ground conditions due to weather are reasonable for landscaping may be determined by the Committee which determination shall be binding upon all interested parties. Nothing herein shall preclude landscaping which utilizes natural vegetation; provided that noxious wild weeds and plants shall not be permitted on any Lot.

Section 2. Landscape Maintenance. The Owners of each Lot shall maintain the landscaping on the Lot in a neat and presentable condition at all times and shall not permit the Lot to become overgrown or allow weeds and other noxious plants to proliferate on the Lot. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary on the Plat, including Note 3 on the Plat, the Community Organization shall maintain the landscaping of planter islands, planting or parking strips, and street trees, if any, even if they are located within a Lot. Planter islands, planting or parking strips, and street trees shall have their commonly understood meaning, and are typically located within or adjacent to public rights of way.
