(1) The declaration for a common interest community may state that it is a large scale community if the declarant has reserved the development right to create at least five hundred units that may be used for residential purposes and, at the time of the reservation, that declarant owns or controls more than five hundred acres on which the units may be built.
(2) If the requirements of subsection (1) of this section are satisfied, the declaration for the large scale community need not state a maximum number of units and need not contain any of the information required under RCW
64.90.225(1) (c) through (n) until the declaration is amended under subsection (3) of this section.
(3) When each unit in a large scale community is conveyed to a purchaser, the declaration must contain:
(a) A sufficient legal description of the unit and all portions of the large scale community in which any other units have been conveyed to a purchaser; and
(b) All the information required under RCW
64.90.225(1) (c) through (n) with respect to that real estate.
(4) The only real estate in a large scale community subject to this chapter are units that have been made subject to the declaration or that are being offered for sale and any other real estate described pursuant to subsection (3) of this section. Other real estate that is or may become part of the large scale community is only subject to other law and to any other restrictions and limitations that appear of record.
(5) If the public offering statement conspicuously identifies the fact that the community is a large scale community, the disclosure requirements contained in RCW
64.90.600 through
64.90.695 apply only to units that have been made subject to the declaration or are being offered for sale in connection with the public offering statement and to any other real estate described pursuant to subsection (3) of this section.
(6) Limitations in this chapter on the addition of unspecified real estate do not apply to a large scale community.
(7) The period of declarant control of the association for a large scale community terminates in accordance with any conditions specified in the declaration or otherwise at the time the declarant, in a recorded instrument and after giving notice in a record to the board of the association, voluntarily surrenders all rights to control the activities of the association.
