I agreed completely until I went for a walk this morning. I paid particular attention to garden objects in my very nice, tasteful (IMO) neighborhood...things I really never noticed before.

I was surprised to note that 9 out of 10 yards has SOMETHING, however minor, that would break the rules.

If TV took on the role of enforcing to the letter of the law, they'd never be done! If my yard is ok today, it may not be tomorrow. Is this really worth the effort,not to mention related costs, to hire an army of people to be enforcers?

Yes, the current complaint-driven system is FAR from perfect, but I think it beats the alternative.
