FOREWORD

A. Key Steps to a Successful Landscaping Project within Trilogy at La Quinta (hereinafter the “Community”): * Assure that you and your contractors are familiar with the Design Guidelines for the Community. Submit all necessary forms and fees.

* Submit professional quality project plans/drawings in the proper scale.

* Assure that you show any changes to your Lot drainage; assure that you do not cause drainage problems for adjacent Lots of your neighbors, especially if their Lots are of a lower elevation. Installation of drainpipes terminating at the Golf Course is not allowed. Review drainage details in Section 3.8 herein.

* Assure that you show on your drawing(s) if you plan to break your privacy wall for access to your backyard. Assure that each contractor is in possession of Declarant’s, (Shea La Quinta, LLC’s) standards to correctly replace the wall (Exhibit F herein).

* Select reputable contractors. California Law requires contractors performing work in excess of $500 to be licensed (Homeowners may verify contractor License status at www.cslb.ca.gov/).

* Assure that contractors maintain clean worksites.

* Assure that contractors don’t stage any material (rock, sand, etc.) on the Community streets, or dump any material on the Golf Course or any other area in the Community, or access your Lot via the Golf Course or any Common Area without specific permission, or keep any equipment on the street overnight.

* Assure that contractors minimize the damage to your front yard, the parkways and sidewalks, and that they correctly restore, to the original condition, any damage that occurred to your front yard or to any Master Common Area.

* As more fully set forth within Section 2.1(d) below, the Association may require Applicant to submit completed Neighbor Awareness Forms (Exhibit H) from the adjacent Dwelling Units.

I. INTRODUCTION

An important function of the Trilogy at La Quinta Maintenance Association (“Association”) is the retention of the architectural character of the Community. The Board of Directors (“Board”) is responsible for the administration and enforcement of architectural review and control within the Community by the authority given to it in the Master Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions and Reservation of Easements for Trilogy at La Quinta (“Declaration”). The Declaration provides for a Design Review Committee (“DRC”) that is to be appointed to review all plans and specifications for any architectural and/or landscape improvements (collectively, “Modifications”) proposed to be constructed within the Community, and to approve, conditionally approve or disapprove such proposed Modifications. The Declaration authorizes the DRC to adopt, create, change, eliminate, enforce and administer the Design Guidelines (“Guidelines”). The Board also has the right to levy Special Assessments against any Owner who fails to comply with the provisions of the Guidelines, as more fully set forth in Section 2.14 herein including reimbursement of the Association for expenditures of monies or to reimburse the Association for any costs incurred related to the action or non-action of a Member, as well as a reasonable fine or penalty. Capitalized terms used throughout these Guidelines either correspond with those terms set forth within Article I of the Declaration or are defined herein, 1.1 Intent of the Guidelines

These Guidelines are mainly concerned with the physical appearance of the Community environment. The DRC’s areas of concern in the Guidelines include but are not limited to: 1) room additions, patio structures , and free-standing roofed structures, 2) planting, flatwork, pools, spas, walls and fences and 3) completion of rear yard landscaping consistent with Section 10.20 of the Declaration. All proposed architectural and landscape Modifications shall be submitted to the DRC for review. In order to be considered for review, all submittals must include a completed Submittal Checklist and Application. No work, improvements or demolition shall be started prior to DRC or Board approval of the Application and proposed plans. NOTE: THE REVIEW AND/OR APPROVAL OF ANY PLANS, IMPROVEMENTS, CONCEPTS, CONSTRUCTION, ETC. BY THE DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE AND/OR THE BOARD IS DONE TO CHECK FOR CONFORMANCE WITH THE DECLARATION AND THE DESIGN GUIDELINES AND DOES NOT REVIEW NOR WARRANT THE PLANS AS REGARDS CONFORMANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE GOVERNING CODES AND ORDINANCES NOR STRUCTURAL STABILITY OR SUITABILITY. 1.2 Design Guidelines

These Guidelines establish general procedural rules and a range of deposits and fees to cover Modifications that range from minor to major architectural and/or landscaping improvements. The amount of the fees and deposits required to be paid by an Owner is established by the DRC and based upon the type and the nature of the proposed improvement for which plans have been submitted. The schedule of fees and deposits is set forth in Sections 2.5 and 2.6 herein. NOTE: THESE DESIGN GUIDELINES ARE INTENDED TO WORK IN CONCERT WITH THE CITY OF LA QUINTA’S GOVERNING CODES, REGULATIONS AND ORDINANCES AND WHICHEVER IS THE MORE RESTRICTIVE AND MUST BE FOLLOWED AND IMPLEMENTED.

~7~

1.3 Application Approvals

The DRC may condition its approval of plans and specifications with any changes it deems appropriate and/or may require the submission of additional plans and specifications or other information or materials prior to approving or disapproving plans and specifications. In the event an application is determined to be incomplete and/or additional documentation or inquiry is required, an Association representative shall contact the Applicant as soon as possible. In such an event, an Application requiring more documentation and/or information shall not be deemed “complete” or “submitted.” After it has determined that all required materials have been received and the Application is “complete”, the DRC shall transmit its decisions and the reasons therefore related to the Modifications to the Applicant at the address set forth in the Application within forty five (45) days after the DRC’s receipt of a complete Application. If the DRC fails to approve or disapprove Owner's Application within forty five (45) days after the Application has been deemed “complete”, the Modification is deemed approved. 1.4 City of La Quinta Approval

Please be aware that approval of the DRC is for aesthetic purposes only and that all necessary City of La Quinta building permits must be obtained and that all City regulations must be adhered to at all times. After the Committee has approved the plans for aesthetic purposes, the local regulatory agencies must be contacted, and processed if required, to ensure that the plans are in compliance with all building, zoning, health and other applicable regulations currently in force.

II. GENERAL SUBMISSION PROCEDURES REQUIREMENTS (See Exhibit I for a synopsis of the submission/review/approval process)

The approval of any Modification by the DRC does not waive the necessity of obtaining the

required City of La Quinta permits. Obtaining a City of La Quinta permits does not waive the need for DRC approval. 2.1 Application Submittal

(a) All Applications shall be delivered to the Santa Rosa Club, or mailed to the Santa Rosa Club in care of FirstService Residential, the managing agent for the Association. Please submit your application to the on-site Association office or they may be mailed or delivered to:

Trilogy at La Quinta Maintenance Association C/O FirstService Residential 60-750 Trilogy Parkway La Quinta, CA 92253

(b) Telephone inquiries should be directed to (760) 777-6059, the Association Services

Office. (c) All requests for DRC approval must be made on the standard Application forms and include a completed copy of the Submittal Checklist. One set of Application materials is provided with these Guidelines. To expedite approvals and facilitate clear understanding of all requirements, the DRC may schedule Applicants (Owners and their contractors) to attend a DRC meeting where their plans will be reviewed in detail. Additional documents enumerating requirements will be given to Owners/contractors at this meeting. The DRC will only consider Applications submitted by the record Owner(s) of the Lot impacted by the Modifications.

~8~

(d) Neighbor Awareness Form. The Association may, at its sole and unfettered discretion, require Applicant to submit completed Neighbor Awareness Forms (Exhibit H) from the adjacent Dwelling Units. NOTE: By signing a Neighbor Awareness Form, a neighbor is not giving approval of a Modification, but only acknowledging the plans for the Modification. 2.2 Required Copies Each Application must be accompanied by two (2) complete sets of plans, showing all items requested in Section IV of these Guidelines which apply to the appropriate Modification(s). 2.3 Construction Drawings Plans must be prepared in accordance with all applicable building codes and ordinances, must be of professional quality and clearly show/define the scope of the requested Modification and, if so hereinafter indicated, must include the sign-off of an architect or structural engineer who is licensed in the State of California. It is requested that any work involving major improvements or work requiring variances be submitted at the preliminary drawing stage for review by both the DRC and the City of La Quinta. 2.4 Right of Entry

If work related to the approved Modification requires the use of Common Areas for purposes of transporting labor and materials, or for the temporary storage of materials for the work, such need shall be stated on the plan with the Application submittal. The Applicant shall obtain written permission from the Association for the “Right of Entry” prior to such use during the course of construction. A copy of the letter granting “Right of Entry” shall be filed with the DRC prior to the commencement of construction on the Modification. 2.5 Security Deposit

(a) A security deposit of five hundred dollars ($500.00) for initial installations of front or rear yard landscaping applications, or one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for Modifications reflecting significant construction or hardscape elements such as pools, waterfalls, spas, large decking or concrete areas, etc.). The security deposit shall be provided to the Association to be drawn against by Association for any and all direct costs to the Association including, but not limited to, the following: (1) legal expenses; (2) consulting fees; (3) filing fees; (4) recordation costs; (5) non-refundable administrative costs (Application fee); (6) costs to repair any damage to the Common Area and/or streets maintained by the Association caused by the construction of the Modification; (7) any other costs directly related to and/or necessary for the supervision of the Modification, as well as the costs necessary for the Association to bring the Modification into compliance with the Declaration and/or these Guidelines; and (8) payment of any Special Assessments levied in accordance with Section 2.14 herein.

(b) Return of Security Deposit. The security deposit minus any costs or expenses expended by the Association (as more fully set forth in paragraph 2.5(a) herein) shall be returned to Owner following receipt of the Notice of Completion form (Exhibit B) and final sign-off by the DRC. 2.6 Review Fees A non-refundable fee of two hundred dollar ($200.00) shall be charged to review each set of plans to verify conformance with the Guidelines. If plans are submitted for landscape improvements in Applicant’s front and back yard areas, the fee will be four hundred dollars ($400.00) for both areas, i.e.

~9~

$200.00 for the front yard and $200.00 for the back yard. The check for fees shall be paid to the order of Trilogy at La Quinta Maintenance Association. The review fee is required with the submission of the Application. Any Application submitted without the required fee will not be considered complete and will be returned to the Applicant. This fee may be waived by the DRC if the Modification is deemed by the DRC to be minor. 2.7 Incomplete Submittals To avoid unnecessary delays and expenses, the Association is unable to accept incomplete submittals for consideration. Incomplete submittals will be returned to the Applicant along with a copy of the checklist noting the area of deficiency. Should the Association and/or DRC accept an incomplete submittal either by exception or error, the “acceptance” does not deem the submittal complete. The DRC may proceed with the review and deny formal approval until a complete package is submitted. 2.8 Non-Liability

Plans and Specifications are not approved for (a) engineering design, (b) compliance with zoning and building ordinances, and other applicable statutes, ordinances or government rules or regulations, (c) compliance with the requirements of any public utility, (d) any easement or other agreement, or (e) preservation of any view. By approving or not approving such plans and specifications neither the DRC, the members thereof, the Association, the Owners, the Board, nor Declarant assume liability or responsibility therefore, or for any defect in any Modification constructed from such plans and specifications or for any obstruction or impairment of view caused or created as the result of any Modifications approved by the DRC. 2.9 Disposition / Response to Application Submittal

Upon approval, disapproval, or in the event the DRC requests clarification or additional information, all Application submittals shall be distributed as follows:

(a) The DRC will retain one plan, as its working copy and it will be kept in the Association files. (b) One approved plan will be returned to the Applicant who shall be required to maintain the same at the work site during the course of construction until such time as the Notice of Completion has been approved by the DRC. (c) Disapproved plans or those requiring clarification or additional information will be returned to the Applicant. Said plans shall be included in subsequent submittals. 2.10 Time Period(s)

(a) Commencement / Completion Deadlines: Work related to the approved Application submittal must commence within ninety (90) days of approval or the DRC may void the approval and require a new Application submittal for review. All Modifications, except for initial installation of rear yard landscaping, shall be completed within six (6) months of the Application approval date, unless otherwise specified in writing by the DRC. Unless otherwise stated, the “Project Approval Date” is defined as the date of the letter granting Applicant approval to proceed with the Modification. “Completion” is defined as the date when the City of La Quinta has conducted its final inspection and approved the Modification, or the date the DRC has made its final inspection and has given its final approval, whichever comes later.

(b) Rear Yard Landscaping (Initial Installations): Except in the case where Declarant installs rear yard landscaping for the Owner, each Owner shall complete the installation of landscaping on the

~10~

rear yard of such Owner’s Lot in accordance with a plan approved by the DRC, no more than six (6) months from the Close of Escrow of the first sale of the Lot at issue, as purchased from the Declarant. 2.11 Inspection & Final Approval/Sign-Off (a) Section 8.6 of the Declaration provides that the DRC and/or its designated representa- tive(s) have the right, but not the obligation, to perform an “On-site” inspection of the completed improvements (“Final Approval”). Failure to request or be granted Final Approval may constitute a violation of the Declaration and may result in disciplinary action under the governing documents, as well as extend the time upon which the Association may inspect the improvements until sixty (60) days after the Notice of Completion described in Section 2.11(b) herein has been provided. (b) When the Applicant believes the Modification is complete, the Applicant shall notify the DRC by submission of a completed Notice of Completion form. (c) As provided in Section 8.6.1 of the Declaration, the DRC’s right to inspect the improvement and notify Applicant of any Noncompliance shall terminate sixty (60) after the work has been completed and the DRC has received the completed Notice of Completion from the Applicant. 2.12 Appeals

In the event (1) Applicant’s plans and specifications submitted to the DRC are disapproved, or (2) the DRC disapproves the Applicant’s project during the Notice of Completion inspection, the Applicant may appeal to the Board by submitting a written request for appeal (“Appeal Request”). The Appeal Request shall be submitted to the Board not more than thirty (30) days following the date final decision of the DRC is issued. 2.13 Variances

In accordance with Section 8.8 of the Declaration, the DRC may recommend Board approval of variances from compliance with the architectural provisions of the Declaration and/or these Guidelines when circumstances such as topography, natural obstructions, hardship, aesthetic or environmental consideration may require. Variances (a) must be in writing, (b) must identify the reason(s) for the request for variance, (c) must be approved by a majority of the DRC in order to be considered approved, and (d) and will become effective only upon subsequent Board approval of the variance. 2.14 Non-Compliance

Failure to: (a) obtain necessary DRC approval from the Association; (b) comply with final plans and specifications approved by the DRC; and (c) maintain the Dwelling Unit and/or Owner maintained landscape areas will constitute non-compliance with the Declaration and may result in immediate discipline including, but not limited to, imposition of a Special Assessment and/or suspension of voting rights, transponder and/or proximity access cards or other Master Common Area privileges following notice and hearing before the Board, as more fully set forth within the Association’s Compliance Procedure. 2.15 Reporting of Non-Compliance

All Owners have the right and responsibility to bring to the attention of the DRC any non-compliance with any of the provisions of the Declaration and/or these Guidelines. Such comments, observations or complaints must be presented in writing with an Owner’s signature. Anonymous letters

~11~

or verbal comments in person or over the phone will not be deemed properly submitted and may not be acted upon. 2.16 Amendments

These Guidelines along with the provisions set forth in the Declaration form the basis and criteria for evaluation of plans and specifications submitted for review and approval by the DRC. Any condition or material not defined in the Association’s Governing Documents shall become a matter of discretionary judgment on the part of the DRC acting in good faith on behalf of the best interests of the Association as a whole. The DRC and the Board may at their discretion from time to time amend the Design Guidelines.

III. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL

The following shall be the conditions of any Modification approval and shall be incorporated by reference only as the approved plans or DRC approval. It shall be the responsibility of the Owner of the Lot/Dwelling Unit, for which an approval was granted to insure that these conditions are enforced upon all persons or firms used, engaged or employed in carrying out any operation or trade in conjunction with said improvement. 3.1 Commercial Signs – See Community Rules & Regulations. 3.2 Hours of Operations

any Lot without the written approval of the DRC. For large projects, as determined by the DRC, a portable toilet may be required. It must not be placed in the street and must be cleaned regularly to comply with local sanitation regulations. At no time shall the portable toilet door be left open.

~12~

3.4 Construction Materials All construction materials must be stored within an Owner’s lot. A trash bin for disposal may be required for some types of approved Modifications. Any construction materials that are delivered and deposited must be located to the Owner’s lot unless otherwise authorized in writing by the DRC. The Owner who is making the Modifications shall be responsible for removing all debris and maintaining all Master Common Areas, including the streets and walkways, in a clean and attractive condition. As more fully set forth in Section 2.14 herein, the Board has the right to levy Special Assessments against the Owner of the Lot upon which the Modifications are being constructed to recover the cost of cleaning or restoring any Master Common Area to the condition that existed prior to the commencement of such Modifications. 3.5 Maintenance of Modifications

The repair and maintenance of any work or Modification will be the responsibility of the installing Owner and each subsequent Owner. 3.6 Conditions Not Covered

Any condition not covered or material not contained within these Guidelines shall become a matter of judgment on the part of the DRC. 3.7 Construction Equipment

The Owner who is making Modifications shall be responsible for insuring that construction equipment such as trucks, concrete mixers, trailers, trash bins, and compressors are not parked or placed on the streets for a period greater than seventy two (72) hours or as further regulated by the City of La Quinta. Additionally, all construction equipment is strictly prohibited from all other Master Common Areas. As more fully set forth in Section 2.14 herein, the Board has the right to levy against the Owner who is making such Modifications Special Assessments as a disciplinary measure for a noncompliance with the foregoing regulation and/or for reimbursement of any costs incurred by the Association in the repair of damage for which such Owner, or Owner’s agents or contractors are deemed to be responsible. 3.8 Drainage (a) Do not interfere with the drainage systems (whether surface or subterranean) originally installed by the Declarant, or any other interference with the established drainage pattern over any Lot or Master Common Areas, unless an adequate provision, previously approved in writing by the DRC, is made for proper drainage. Show surface drainage on plans via arrows indicating flow direction and mark underground drainage as such.. Do not change the grade at the base of existing fences and/or walls and do not retain or raise the grade against them as they are not designed to accommodate this structural load. All paved and planting areas are to drain in a positive manner away from the Dwelling Unit and the adjacent property. All grades in plant beds must be held a minimum of six (6) inches below the adjacent finish floor or a minimum of four (4) inches below the stucco screed line, whichever is greater. Sub-surface drainage systems require a pop up drain emitter (Exhibit E). All finish surfaces of paving are to be held a minimum of one half (½) inch below the adjacent metal stucco house screed. (b) If the Modification is extensive enough, the DRC may require the Owner to install sub-surface drainage. If this is required, the approval section of the DRC Application form shall so specify.

~13~

3.9 Construction by Declarant Pursuant to the Declaration, nothing in these Guidelines shall limit the right of the Declarant to alter the Non-Exclusive Master Common Areas or the Residences still owned by the Declarant or to construct such additional improvements as the Declarant deems advisable prior to the completion of improvements upon and sale of the entire Community. The Declaration exempts the Declarant from compliance with the architectural control provisions of the Association Management Documents (these Guidelines) and therefore no approvals shall be required from the DRC for any construction by the Declarant. However, the DRC will be allowed to review plans if applicable. 3.10 Access to Lots and Wall Removal There shall be no access to Lots for construction through privacy walls or from the Golf Course or any easements unless specific approval is obtained in writing from the DRC. Replacement walls must be constructed per the standard defined in Exhibit F and, if required (by the City of La Quinta), a building permit shall be obtained from the City of La Quinta.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will allow some restrictions by a community association as long

~17~

as they do not cause delays or increase the cost of the installation, or interfere with the reception of an acceptable quality signal. The Owner shall comply with the following additional guidelines:

(a) The satellite dish must have a diameter/diagonal measurement of thirty Nine and six tenths (39.6) inches or less (“conforming satellite dish”). (b) The Owner should submit a Satellite Dish Siting Form, available at the Association Office, showing the location of the antenna. Within one (1) business day of the Association’s receipt of the Satellite Dish Siting Form to install a satellite antenna, Association and Applicant shall agree upon a date and for the DRC or its representative to assist Owner in siting a location for the satellite dish which would be least obtrusive to the surrounding neighborhood and minimize any negative impact (“Preferred Location”). The Association shall have the right to require the installation of the satellite dish in an obscure location, as long as the quality of reception is not impacted and there is not an unreasonable increase in cost and/or delay of the installation. (ii) The Owner shall install an antenna on the Lot in the Preferred Locations described below, unless the Preferred Location would result in impairment of reception of an acceptable quality broadcast signal and there is not an unreasonable increase in cost and/or delay of the installation, and shall comply with the following additional guidelines: (a) Installation shall be made in accordance with applicable building, fire, electrical and related codes. A building permit shall be obtained, if required by the City of La Quinta. . (b) Exposed conduit or wiring is allowed provided it is painted to match the adjacent surface. (c) All satellite dishes shall be mounted in accordance with the Association’s specifications, which may be obtained from the Association office. (d) Owner shall be responsible for the maintenance, repair and replacement of any satellite dish installation and shall be required to repaint, if for any reason the exterior surface of the antenna becomes worn or deteriorated. (e) Owner shall be responsible for any damage to any and all real or personal property or for any injury resulting from the installation of the satellite dish and/or its continued use or maintenance, including any damage to the Master Common Area. (f) If for any reason the Owner does not provide at least one (1) business day’s notice to Association as described above and/or installs the satellite dish in a location which is not consistent with these Guidelines, the Association shall have the right to require the Owner to move the satellite dish to another location in accordance with these Guidelines, as long as the quality of reception is not affected. Any additional cost for relocating the satellite dish due to Owner’s failure to comply with these Guidelines shall not constitute an unreasonable increase in costs, as that term is used herein. (iii) Preferred Locations: (a) The satellite antennae should be screened by landscaping that is, or will be, located solely on that Owner’s Lot of if mounted on the Dwelling Unit, should be installed on the side of the house within the rear two thirds (2/3) of the Dwelling Unit measuring from the street, or may be installed at the rear plane of the Dwelling Unit on non-Golf Course Lots, and in either case placed at or below the eaves so it does not cross roof lines (see exceptions for Dwelling Unit with court yards), with the dish and any brackets painted to match the color of the Dwelling Unit stucco. Antennas designed to look like patio umbrellas are also subject to these provisions. (b) Exception for Dwelling Units with Courtyards: The preferred location will most likely be inside the courtyard. An antenna installed inside the courtyard may be installed above the eaves, since it would not be visible from the street. (c) The DRC prefers not to have an antenna located from the front yards or portions of the roof that face the front, back or side yard areas that face the Golf Course. The dish should be placed in a location that minimizes its visibility from adjoining the neighbors, the street, or the Golf Course areas.

~18~

(d) The DRC prefers reasonable screening of the dish from view by other surrounding Lots/Dwelling Units where the dish is approved for the roof. Such screening may be accomplished, for example, by modifying the roof in order to inset the dish into the existing roofline or by augmenting the roof structure such that it remains consistent with the existing form of the roof or requiring the equipment to be painted to match the existing adjacent surface(s). (iv) The DRC prefers reasonable screening of the dish from view by surrounding Lots/Dwelling Units where the dish is located in the yard of a Lot. If the location of the Dwelling Unit, surrounding Lots/Dwelling Units or terrain does not permit installation as described above, the dish should be located at ground level and may be hidden by landscaping and/or manufactured rock (as selected from the Landscape Materials Palette (Exhibit G). Such screening could be accomplished in order of priority by: (a) Lowering the grade elevation of the pad supporting the dish such that the top of the dish shall not exceed the height of any existing opaque perimeter Lot wall or fence. (b) Installing landscape materials as selected from the Landscape Materials Palette around the dish to screen the dish from view. (c) Installing walls/fence around the dish to screen the dish from view. (d) Combination of the above. (v) When choosing a location for a satellite dish, the Owner should consider growth of area landscaping that would provide future screening of the satellite dish or possible interference with dish signal reception.

(i) Door and Window Coverings: Windows shall not be covered with unsightly material such as aluminum foil, paper,

paint, etc. All screen doors must be approved by the DRC and are to be painted to match the existing door of the Dwelling Unit.

5.3 Landscaping and Pool Guidelines (a) Landscape Review Items: The Landscape Materials Palette attached hereto as Exhibit G contains a list of plant and ground cover materials approved by the Association which have been selected based on visual and aesthetic considerations only. No representation, explicit or implicit is made as to the soil suitability or disease resistance of the plants identified. The Community and the surrounding area are not thematic in their landscape treatment. The Landscape Materials Palette is intended only as a starting point. Owners are encouraged to select plant and ground cover material suitable to the general environment and appropriate to the area. The use of “exotic” landscape material is specifically discouraged. (i) All portions of the rear and side yards of a Lot must be landscaped within six (6) calendar months of the close of escrow of the new Owner. This requirement is waived if the Declarant has installed a knee wall at the Lot line or if the Owner installs a fence or wall at the Lot line. A time variance may be granted by the DRC at its own discretion upon submittal of a written request by the Lot Owner. (ii) The DRC shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require any Owner to remove, trim, top or prune any bush, tree, shrub or plant that is not in compliance with these Guidelines. (iii) Each Owner agrees that the established drainage pattern over the Lot from and to the adjoining or other Lots will not be interfered with or the adequate provisions for proper drainage will be made in the event it is necessary to change said established drainage. (See Exhibit E) (iv) Each Owner shall continuously maintain and properly water any slope within their rear or side yard areas. All improvements located within the slope areas such as landscaping and sprinklers shall be maintained in a safe condition and state of good repair. The DRC must approve any re-planting of slope area.

EXHIBIT D GOLF COURSE LOT SIDE AND REAR YARD FENCE STANDARD

TRILOGY AT LA QUINTA MAINTENANCE ASSOCIATION

_________________________________________________ Many Owners selected a Golf Course Lot to take advantage of a particular location, sense of openness or connection to nature. In the event that an extension of the privacy wall or installation of a rear fence is being proposed, careful consideration should be given to maintaining open, aesthetically pleasing landscaping improvements. It is important to keep in mind that in accordance with California law, there are no protected or guaranteed views. In order to balance individual property rights and to foster communication with adjacent Lot Owners, submission of neighbor comments, as reflected on the Application form, is required for all improvements on Golf Course Lots in the area extending from the end of the Declarant installed privacy wall and the rear Lot line. No “double” or side by side fences may be constructed by two adjacent Lot Owners. Therefore, in the event that you are considering the installation of a side yard wall/fence extension, each adjacent neighbor must complete the neighbor comment portion of the Application for consideration by the DRC (if required by the DRC). Rear Yard Fence 1. Rear yard fence shall be constructed of tubular steel and may be a maximum of four (4) feet in height as determined by the DRC. A knee wall of eighteen inches (18”) is also acceptable. Knee walls may be topped with tubular steel or wrought iron and may not exceed four feet (4’) in height as determined by the DRC. Other materials shall not be considered. 2. Rails: top and bottom rails shall be 1 ¼”. 3. Posts shall be 1 ½”. 4. Pickets shall be 5/8”. 5. Rear yard fence (including tubular steel / wrought iron) shall be painted with an exterior semigloss paint and painted to match: (a) the color of the existing Dwelling Unit walls; or (b) the existing block wall; or (c) FRAZEE 8211W, “Sandy Lane” or Frazee Dark Brown. 6. In the event that a stucco column is desired along the rear Lot line, columns shall be spaced a minimum of fifteen feet (15’) apart. Column shall be painted to match the tubular steel /wrought iron. Side Yard Fence 1. Extensions of the Declarant installed privacy wall shall not exceed four feet (4’) in height as determined by the DRC. 2. Side yard fence extensions shall not exceed a maximum of four feet (4’) in height and shall be constructed of tubular steel or wrought iron fencing or shall match the Declarant installed block wall fence in material and color. A side yard fence constructed with a combination of block and tubular steel or wrought iron shall not exceed four feet (4’) in height. For example, rather than a four foot (4’) high block or tubular / wrought iron fence, a two foot (2’) high block wall with a two foot (2’) high tubular steel or wrought iron fence on top would be acceptable. 3. Rails, posts and pickets shall for side yard fence constructed of tubular steel or wrought iron shall conform to item numbers 2 through 4 of the Rear Yard Fence Standards (above). 4. Side yard fence extensions (including tubular steel or wrought iron) shall be painted to match:(a) the color of the existing Dwelling Unit walls; or (b) the existing block wall; or (c) FRAZEE 8211W, “Sandy Lane” or Frazee Dark Brown. 5.
