The Carlyle

1. Common, domesticated house pets such as dogs, cats, fish or birds (“pets”) may be kept by a resident in his/her Unit, subject to these Rules and Regulations. No other animals may be kept or used anywhere on the Property. Birds, fish and other small household pets (other than dogs and cats) shall be kept in appropriate cages or tanks in the Unit.
2. A maximum of two dogs or two cats, or one of each, may be kept in any Unit.
3. Any pet must be housed and maintained exclusively within the responsible Owner’s Unit. Pets must be leashed in conformance with local leash laws and under the direct control of the Owner housing the pet or other handler at all times on the Property. When on the premises and outside the dwelling unit, all pets must be controlled by the Owner or handler, either through use of a leash, by carrying the pet, or transporting it inside a pet carrier. Outdoor pet houses, shelters or enclosures of any type are prohibited. Pets may not be kept or tethered on balconies and terraces. (Amended by the Board of Directors on 2/11/13)
4. Owners are responsible to pay for any damage to the Property caused by pets housed within such Owner’s Unit, and are obligated to hold harmless and indemnify the Association, and its officers and directors, against any loss, claims or liability arising out of any act of the pet.
5. Pets are not allowed to relieve themselves on the Property, except for certain pets, such as cats or birds, within the responsible Owner’s Unit. For the purposes of this Rule, the Property is defined as the building interior, and exterior of The Carlyle and The Carlyle Commercial Space including the Porte Cochere, sidewalks, and landscaping elements. Owners or other handlers are responsible for prompt clean-up of pet waste. In the event that pet waste is not promptly cleaned-up by Owners or pet handlers, the current clean-up fee ($50 per instance at this time) will be charged to the unit.
(Amended by the Board of Directors on 2/11/13 and 12/9/13)
6. Pets, with the exception of qualified ‘service animals,’ are not allowed in the party room, wine room, catering kitchen, board room, fitness center, spa area, or amenity deck.
7. Any repeated or prolonged disturbance by a pet, such as noise, odor, waste, or threatening or nuisance activity, may be cause for imposition of a fine on the Owner of the Unit housing the pet and/or the removal of the offending pet from the Property. Decisions concerning the removal of a pet shall be made by the Board; however, upon the written request of the affected Owner the removal of the pet shall be determined by a vote of the Owners at a meeting of the Association provided that the Owner requesting the meeting must pay the cost of calling and holding the
meeting.
8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Rules shall be imposed which restrict the keeping of a qualified “service animal” for a disabled or handicapped person in violation of any applicable state or federal statutes, regulations or rules. However, service animals are subject to the same behavioral standards as similar types of pets.

Section 2 of the Bylaws authorizes the Board to require all Owners to register certain information with the Association prior to the lessee moving into the Carlyle. In order to further ensure the health, safety, and welfare of all residents of The Carlyle, the Board believes it is necessary to establish reasonable procedures for registering residents and maintaining records on an ongoing basis as residents move in and out of the Building. It is also important that the Association establish controls with regard to residents who may have had a prior history of disruptive behavior in earlier residences and who have been convicted of crimes which
involved threats to personal safety or to property. Accordingly, the following Rules apply to Owners who lease their Units, and to their lessees.
1. Leases shall be for a minimum term of six (6) months (except that mortgage holders acquiring title to a Unit through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure shall be exempt, and the Board may waive the requirement for emergencies or extenuating circumstances).
2. The entire Unit (not individual rooms or spaces) must be leased, unless the Owner contemporaneously occupies the Unit.
