     515A.2-113 Alterations of units.  


    Subject to the provisions of the declaration and other 
 provisions of law, a unit owner: 


    (1) may make any improvements or alterations to the unit 
 that do not impair the structural integrity or mechanical 
 systems or lessen the support of any portion of the condominium; 


    (2) after acquiring an adjoining unit or an adjoining part 
 of an adjoining unit, may with consent of the association and 
 first mortgagees of the affected units, remove or alter any 
 intervening partition or create apertures therein, even if the 
 partition in whole or in part is a common element, if those acts 
 do not impair the structural integrity or mechanical systems or 
 lessen the support of any portion of the condominium.  The 
 adjoining unit owners shall have the exclusive license to use 
 the space occupied by the common elements, but the use shall not 
 create an easement or vested right.  Removal of partitions or 
 creation of apertures under this paragraph is not an alteration 
 of boundaries.  The association may reasonably require that the 
 owner or owners of units affected replace or restore any such 
 partition.
