Maintenance, Repair, Replacement, and Other Common Expenses. a. By the Board of Directors. provided, however, that Unit Owner shall perform all repair, replacement, and maintenance on the Limited Common Elements appurtenant to this Unit and any portion of the remaining Common Elements which the Board of Directors pursuant to the rules and Regulations has given him permission to utilize, including, without limitation, the items enumerated in subsection b. hereof. (The Declaration does not specifically define Limited Common Elements, but rather states: Section 1.2. Defined Terms. Terms not otherwise defined herein or in the plats, plans, or Bylaws shall have the meanings specified in Section 2 of the Condominium Act.)

Notwithstanding the ownership of various portions of the Common Elements and the Units by virtue of the foregoing boundary description, the provisions of the Bylaws shall govern the division of maintenance and repair responsibilities between the Unit Owner and the Association.”

The Board of Directors shall be responsible for the maintenance, repair, and replacement (unless, if in the opinion of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the Board of Directors such expense was necessitated by the negligence, misuse, or neglect of a Unit Owner) of all of the Common Elements, but not the Limited Common Elements, as defined herein or in the Declaration, the cost of repair of the Common Elements shall be charged to all Unit Owners as a Common Expense;
