Habitat shall assure compliance with affordability of each of the assisted units at the time it sells each of the eight (8) dwelling units, pursuant to the "Declaration of Restrictive Covenants" on the Property recorded in the Orange County Registry at Book 3710, Page 314, Book 3936, Page 434 and at Book 3936, Page 465 on the Properties.

County retains the right to periodically and every 30 years after the first recording of the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants on the Properties to register, with the Register of Deeds of Orange County, a notice of preservation of the Restrictive Covenants on the Properties as provided in North Carolina General Statute § 47B-4 or any comparable preservation law in effect at the time of the recording of the notice of preservation.
