I would let the market decide but now that the poster has identified What he considers deficiencies in his/her neighborhood, it is incumbent upon them to tell any prospective buyers of the deficiencies or face a lawsuit from his buyers.

So, I agree with Gracie on this and if the poster cannot come clean and show evidence of the complaints the Administrator should remove his post. Free speech does not mean we can demean others freely.

Please be careful, when you want evidence, you are really running the risk of Exposure and retaliation. This control is best handled with the main office and Standards. They need to observe and take action if they want a beautiful place. If the employees of the Village, drive around and park along side each other, visiting, and if the management wants every person to expose themselves to retaliation, then there will be no progress or very little progress on this item. In one city, a person parked his car on the front lawn. There was nothing about this in the CC and Rs. Well a couple of persons complained and next thing, the offender drug up a couple of rusty old cars in provided by a friend. So take that folks !! The neighborhood could do nothing legally to stop the mess, just move away. It comes down to facing the problem, having a management group that cares, otherwise, you just spin your wheels. If you want to rationalize this or look the other way, (that is done here on this site), then you may see some real messes. Enough of that. Been there SEEN THAT THREE TIMES.
