1. Co-owners who own at least three-quarters of the undivided property may decide, for the purpose of improving the enjoyment of this property, to carry out fundamental changes and modifications to the purpose for which it was designated, which exceed the limits of ordinary administration, provided they notify the remaining co-owners of their decision. Any dissenting co-owner shall have the right to lodge an objection with the court within thirty (30) days from the date of notification. 2.

It may particularly require the majority to provide security to guarantee the fulfilment of any compensation that may become due to the dissenting co-owner.
