of single-family or two family residential building sites upon which residential dwellings have been

constructed, or are being constructed, and successive buyers thereof shall be members of said

association, corporation or trust.

18. Duration of Restrictive Covenants and Limitations

The foregoing covenants and restrictions are to run with the land and shall be binding on all persons and

parties claiming under them until January 1, 1985, at which time the said covenants be automatically

extended for successive periods of 10 years, unless by a majority vote of the then lot owners it is agreed

to change or abrogate said covenants in part or in whole.

Should the owner and/or tenants of any lot or lots in SECTION 2, PARK VIEW ESTATES violate any of the

restrictive covenants and/or conditions herein, and thereafter refuse to correct same and to abide by

said restrictions and conditions contained herein, after reasonable notice, then in such event any owner

or owners of any lot in SECTION 2, PARK VIEW ESTATES may institute legal proceedings to enjoin, abate

and/or correct such violation or such restrictions or violations, and the owner of the lot or lots

permitting the violation or such restrictions and/or conditions shall pay all attorney fees, court costs,

and other expenses necessarily incurred to the person instituting such legal proceedings to maintain and

enforce the aforesaid restrictions and conditions, said attorney fees, court costs, and other expenses

allowed and assessed by the Court, for the aforesaid violation or violations, shall become a lien upon the

lands as of the date legal proceedings were originally instituted; and said lien shall be subject to

foreclosure in such action so brought to enforce such restrictions in the same manner as liens upon real

estates, the procedure of which is fixed by statute.
