The assessments levied under this Article shall be used exclusively for the purpose of promoting the recreation, health, safety and welfare of the residents of Copenhaver and in particular for the acquisition, improvement and maintenance of properties, services and facilities devoted to this purpose, including, but not limited to, the payment of taxes and insurance thereon and repair, replacement and additions thereto and for the cost of labor, equipment, materials, management and supervision thereof and for such other needs as may arise.

Section 3. Basis and Maximum of Annual Assessments. The maximum annual assessment payable to the Copenhaver homes Corporation shall be $100.00 per Private Dwelling Unit.

Section 9. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any mortgage or mortgages now or hereafter placed upon the properties subject to assessment; provided, however, that such subordination shall apply only to the assessments which have become due and payable prior to a sale or transfer of such property pursuant to a decree of foreclosure, or any other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve such property from liability for any assessments thereafter becoming due, nor from the lien of any such subsequent assessment. The term mortgages shall include deed of trust or deeds of trust.
