(______name of subdivision) property in its entirety, including any lots
whose owner did not support the amendment…shall be effective for and after the
date of its recording”. Can a new covenant bind a property owner who doesn’t
agree, or would be effective against a new owner of a non-signing property owner
only.?</FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
