Owners and their families, guests and renters will be expected to reduce noise levels after 11:00 PM (until 8:00 AM) so that neighbors are not disturbed. At no time are musical instruments, radios, tape decks, phonographs or televisions to be so loud as to become a nuisance.
  1. LITTERING AND TRASH DISPOSAL. There will be no littering. All refuse and trash shall be deposited only in trash containers, and under no circumstances are such items to be dropped or left on the ground or other Common Area. No construction debris, furniture, TV’s, grills, propane tanks, hot water tanks or appliances of any kind are allowed in the dumpsters.

No garbage or trash shall be permitted to remain in public view. All pet waste must be picked up and disposed of properly.
  1. ADDITIONS TO EXTERIORS OF BUILDINGS. As specified in the Samoset Bylaws, no owner shall make any structural addition, alteration or improvement in or to his Unit, modify the exterior, including paint color, or otherwise change his Unit or Limited Common Area without prior written consent thereto of the Board of Directors and of the Architectural Design Control Committee. Changes affecting the appearance of the exterior of any building, such as decorations, lighting, awnings, screens, sunshades, air-conditioning equipment, fans, deck or terrace covers and enclosures, or similar changes, shall be made only with the consent of either the Board of Directors or the Architectural Design Control Committee. No television, radio, hi-fi or stereophonic system aerial or antenna, wiring for electrical or telephone use, or other machine or equipment which would protrude from or be visible from the exterior of a Unit or any building shall be allowed, except as presently installed, or upon authorization of the Board of Directors.

In addition, each Owner will receive 2 vehicle passes for family, guests or renters. All family, guest or renter vehicles must display a Visitors Vehicle Pass when parked within the Condominium. All Owners, family, guests and renters must park within the general area of their unit, unless the Board of Directors designates an area for the family, guests and renters of an Owner and provides alternative instructions. It is important that the parking instructions are adhered to in order to avoid congestion in any one area or along roadways that could create a safety issue. Any unauthorized vehicles parked on association property or any vehicles parked in an area that does not comply with the rules set forth will be subject to towing or fines at the Owner’s expense. The Owner will be responsible for family, guests and renters.

No motorized bikes or scooters, motorcycles or snowmobiles shall be operated within the confines of the Condominium without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors. No motorized bikes or scooters, motorcycles, snowmobiles, mobile homes, campers, motorized boats and trailers or other terrain vehicles will be parked or allowed to remain within the Condominium, except in a protected area or areas designated by the Board of Directors.

  1. SPEED LIMIT. The speed limit for all vehicles within Samoset is 15 mph.
  1. GUESTS. Owners will be responsible for the actions of their guests. If occupancy by guests creates a nuisance to other Owners, the Board of Directors shall have the right to request that the guests leave. Responsibility for such supervision shall rest with any Owner who is the host of such guests. If the actions of any Owner, family member or guest are not in compliance with the rules adopted by the Association, the Owner will be held responsible and subject to the applicable consequences including fines or loss of privileges.
  1. RENTERS The Owners will be responsible to provide a copy of the rules and the applicable provisions of the Bylaws to their Renters and review those with the Renters so they have a clear understanding. If the Renter fails to comply with these rules and the applicable provisions of the Bylaws the Board will hold the Owner responsible and request their assistance to resolve any problem situation. If the actions of any Renter are not in compliance with the rules or the applicable provisions of the Bylaws adopted by the Association, the Owner will be held responsible and subject to the applicable consequences including fines or loss of privileges. An example of specific rules that apply to Renters follow. Renters are not allowed to bring any pet on the premises. Since the Samoset Association Boating Rules stipulate that only boats that are owned by an Owner and registered by the Owner with the State and with the Samoset Association are authorized to tie-up, anchor or moor on the Samoset site, Renters are not allowed to make use of the docks or mooring field for any watercraft.
