The owner of each unit may keep one (1) small pet, (45 pounds or less) of a normal domesticated household type (such as a cat or dog) in the unit. The pet must be carried under the owner's arm or be leashed at all times while on the condominium property outside of the unit. The ability to keep such a pet is a privilege, not a right, and the Board of Directors is empowered to order and enforce the removal of any pet which becomes a source of unreasonable annoyance to other residents of the condominium. No pets of any kind are permitted in leased units. No reptiles, rodents, amphibians, poultry or livestock may be kept in the condominium. The Condominium Association may restrict the walking of pets to certain areas. Owners who walk their pets must clean up after their pets. Pets may not be left unattended or leashed on lanais, entries, courtyard entries, common areas or in garages.

2. Board Action: After the required notice and all information or interviews requested have been provided, the board shall have twenty (20) days in which to approve or disapprove the proposed lease. If the Board neither approves nor disapproves within that time, its failure to act shall be deemed the equivalent of approval to the lessee. Approvals will be granted conditioned upon the receipt of $1000.00 deposit, refundable at the end of the lease minus any costs to restore common condominium property to its original condition.
