There are multiple documents which relate to the 800 West Ferry Condominium Association. 

The Declaration is the master of the documents.  It is the document that, among other things, includes the legal description of the property (Schedule A) and the building (Schedule B), establishes the condominium association, identifies the units by location and size with percentage of ownership (Schedule C), contains the use restrictions, and defines the common and restricted common elements.  Schedules D, E, F and G identify parking and storage locations.  (See further information on Schedules D, E, F and G below.) The current Declaration was re-stated, effective in 1987.

The By-laws (Schedule H) set up the association and how it is to be run. It contains provisions on the board of directors, who is eligible, what the duties are, how they are elected, and what their powers are. It also includes rules on charges and assessments, insurance, record-keeping, property use and maintenance, selling/leasing units and more.

The Rules and Regulations set up guidelines and rules for owners to follow and reiterates the use and restrictions set forth in the Declaration in simpler terms.

There have been multiple amendments to the declarations, by-laws, and rules over the years, some of which are no longer current.  There are four significant amendments, which are still in place and included below. There have also been a number of amendments and related modifications to Schedules D, E, F, and G related to parking and storage locations.  Please note that these schedules within the Declaration are out of date. Updates to these schedules are contained in the document below.
