(A) The association documents shall allow the association to request the city to accept private streets and alleys and the associated property as public streets and right-of-way upon written notice to all association members and upon the favorable vote of 51% of the membership.
(B) Acceptance of the dedication of the private street shall be at the sole discretion of the city. In no event shall the city accept the dedication of a private street as public unless said street has been constructed and maintained to city standards. Should the city elect to accept a private street as public, the city may inspect the private street and assess the lot owners for the expense of needed repairs concurrent with the city’s acceptance of the streets and alleys.
(C) The city shall be the sole judge of whether repairs are needed. The city may also require, at the association’s expense, the removal of guardhouses, access control devices, landscaping or other aesthetic amenities located within the street lot at the homeowners association expense.
