DECLARANT&#8217;S OBLIGATION TO COMPLETE AND RESTORE (§ 55.1-1930)

A. No covenants, restrictions, limitations, or other representations or
commitments in the condominium instruments with regard to anything that is or is
not to be done on the additional land, the withdrawable land, or any portion of
either shall be binding as to any portion of either lawfully withdrawn from the
condominium or never added to the condominium, except to the extent that the
condominium instruments so provide. But in the case of any covenant,
restriction, limitation, or other representation or commitment in the
condominium instruments or in any other agreement requiring the declarant to add
all or any portion of the additional land or to withdraw any portion of the
withdrawable land, or imposing any obligations with regard to anything that is
or is not to be done on such land or with regard to such land, or imposing any
obligations with regard to anything that is or is not to be done on or with
regard to the condominium or any portion of such condominium, this subsection
shall not be construed to nullify, limit, or otherwise affect any such
obligation.

B. The declarant shall complete all improvements labeled &#8220;NOT YET
COMPLETED&#8221; on plats recorded pursuant to the requirements of this chapter
unless the condominium instruments expressly exempt the declarant from such
obligation and shall, in the case of every improvement labeled &#8220;NOT YET
BEGUN&#8221; on such plats, state in the declaration either the extent of the
obligation to complete the same or that there is no such obligation.

C. To the extent that damage is inflicted on any part of the condominium by any
person utilizing the easements reserved by the condominium instruments or
created by &#xA7;&#xA7; 55.1-1928 and 55.1-1929, the declarant together with any
person causing the same shall be jointly and severally liable for the prompt
repair of such damage and for the restoration of the same to a condition
compatible with the remainder of the condominium.
