CHARDONNAY ESTATES OWNERS ASSOCIATION INC.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Arch Standards Section 4., Fences and Walls

Adopted April 24, 2008

ARC recommends on this day that HOA Board take immediate action to adopt
a policy which would help allhomeowners trying to buffer noise while
residing on White Point Road as well as those homeowners who are located
on the outer perimeter of Chardonnay Estates and back up to the Eglin
Range or the Mid-Bay Connector and new constructed Toll Plaza.

The situation that exists with homeowners whose property border the
outside should be given noise abatement options. Ideally a true privacy
and noise abatement fence with additional shrubbery would be installed
and maintained by the HOA as is the practice in some Associations.
However, given the budget constraints and the difficulty in passing a
special assessment to generate the needed funding this seems highly
unlikely. The current approved 6 foot "letterbox" fence while
acceptable as an internal fence provide some privacy has no privacy or
noise abatement quality for property lines along the perimeter of the
subdivision. ARC highly recommends that the HOA adopt a policy to the
covenants such that Homeowners along the outside perimeter be given
noise abatement and privacy options. These options could include
allowing that homeowner whose property borders the outside
perimeter to construct at their own expense an 8 to 10 foot wooden
privacy (not letterbox) fence. Additionally the HOA should also
consider installing dense shrubbery along the outside perimeter just
outside the fence line along White Point Road if a Homeowner agrees to
install and maintain sprinklers for that shrubbery.

Resolution shall become effective on today's date. Copy of new policy
with regards to Arch Standards Section 4., Fences and Walls shall be
sent to all homeowners.
