(d) The slope of the roof shall be not less than 4/12 pitch

(p) All lot owners shall maintain the lots in such manner as to keep grass and weeds mowed so that they do not exceed a height of eight inches, and a failure of a lot owner to comply with this provision shall authorize developer, without notice to the lot owner, to have the lot mowed and to charge the cost thereof to the lot owner and to take legal action against the lot owner to collect for the cost of mowing, if the same has been paid by developer, and further to collect from the lot owner all court costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in collecting the mowing charge, whether through negotiation or litigation.

Any such court actions may be brought to restrain violations, to require corrections or modifications or to recover damages.
