I have read my deed restrictions many times. I know that the lady down the street should only have two dogs but has three. She always walks them in the opposite direction....away from my home, and I have never heard them bark. She is not impacting my life...she gets a pass. Two streets up is an ugly lawn which breaks the 50% sodded requirement rule. They have replaced the sod with ugly grey stones. I don't have to see that house and those who visit me never see it either. Doesn't impact my life...gets a pass. If I thought either example infringed upon my rights or my quality of life, or if I found out they were Falcons fans, I would report them in a heartbeat. I am glad to have covenants and I obey them. I think we should all obey them, but I don't feel the need to be a crusader on someone else's behalf.
