3. NEW BUSINESS
A. Approval of Resolution No. 196 Approving and Ratifying Amended
Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions of the
Blackthorn Corporate Park
Mr. Relos stated on October 27, 2015, the annual Blackthorn Owners'
Association meeting was held. One of the agenda items was the proposed
changes to the Declaration of Protective Covenants & Restrictions
(Covenants) and Development Guidelines. The main changes made are
as follows: 1) light industrial uses allowed in limited eastern areas of the
park; 2) free standing restaurants were removed as a prohibited use; and
3) hotel use will be allowed anywhere within the park.
Last year, the Authority deeded its ownership of the lots to the
Commission as the bonds had been paid off. Within the Covenants, both
the Redevelopment Commission and Redevelopment Authority are
defined as the declarants with certain responsibilities. Since the Authority
now has no ownership, the Authority is being asked to ratify the changes
to the Covenants acknowledging they are no longer a declarant. One
