Section 216.006 - Extension Of Restrictions(a) Restrictions may be extended as provided by Section 216.007 or, if a dedicatory instrument provides a procedure for an initial extension of the original restrictions, that procedure may be used for successive extensions of the original restrictions unless the dedicatory instrument expressly prohibits the procedure from being used for successive extensions. If the dedicatory instrument prohibits the procedure from being used to provide for automatic extension of restrictions, the procedure may not be used under this subsection to provide for automatic extension of the restrictions. (b) A provision in a dedicatory instrument that prohibits the extension of an existing restriction during a certain period does not apply to a successive extension under a procedure for initial extension of original restrictions under Subsection (a). (c) An extension of restrictions under this chapter may: (1) be for a period equal to the original term of the restrictions or a shorter period; and (2) subject to Subsection (a), provide for additional automatic extensions of the term of the restrictions for a period of not more than 10 years for each extension. (d) A dedicatory instrument that provides for the extension of restrictions and does not provide for amendment of restrictions may be amended under this chapter, including by amending the provision providing for the extension of the restrictions.
