The rights and privileges of all members shall be equal except as to voting and property rights. The voting and property rights shall be appurtenant to ownership of said lots and be vested exclusively in such members who own one or more of said lots in fee simple or own an equitable interest therein under contract of sale; provided, however, a member who is an occupant of one or more of said lots under lease or month-to-month tenancy shall be entitled to vote, providing the owner of the lot which he occupies is not a member or when the owner being a member consents in writing thereto.

Membership in this association shall be voluntary.  Said dues maybe paid in installments covering a period of no longer than 6 (six) months, ending June 30th of that year to pay in full.  Dues not paid by June 30th shall be considered delinquent.
