(1)To exercise any development right reserved under RCW 64.34.216 (1)(j), the declarant shall prepare, execute, and record an amendment to the declaration under RCW 64.34.264 , and comply with RCW 64.34.232 . The declarant is the unit owner of any units thereby created. The amendment to the declaration shall assign an identifying number to each new unit created, and, except in the case of subdivision or conversion of units described in subsection
(2)of this section, reallocate the allocated interests among all units. The amendment must describe any common elements and any limited common elements thereby created and, in the case of limited common elements, designate the unit to which each is allocated to the extent required by RCW 64.34.228 .
(2)Development rights may be reserved within any real property added to the condominium if the amendment adding that real property includes all matters required by RCW 64.34.216 or 64.34.220 , as the case may be, and the survey map and plans include all matters required by RCW 64.34.232 . This provision does not extend the time limit on the exercise of development rights imposed by the declaration pursuant to RCW 64.34.216 (1)(j).
(3)Whenever a declarant exercises a development right to subdivide or convert a unit previously created into additional units, common elements, or both:
(a)If the declarant converts the unit entirely to common elements, the amendment to the declaration must reallocate all the allocated interests of that unit among the other units as if that unit had been taken by condemnation under RCW 64.34.060 .
(b)If the declarant subdivides the unit into two or more units, whether or not any part of the unit is converted into common elements, the amendment to the declaration must reallocate all the allocated interests of the unit among the units created by the subdivision in any reasonable and equitable manner prescribed by the declarant.
(4)If the declaration provides, pursuant to RCW 64.34.216 (1)(j), that all or a portion of the real property is subject to the development right of withdrawal:
(a)If all the real property is subject to withdrawal, and the declaration or survey map or amendment thereto does not describe separate portions of real property subject to that right, none of the real property may be withdrawn if a unit in that portion of the real property is owned by a person other than the declarant; and
(b)If a portion or portions are subject to withdrawal as described in the declaration or in the survey map or in any amendment thereto, no portion may be withdrawn if a unit in that portion of the real property is owned by a person other than the declarant.
