My questions are: How could this ever be alllowed to get to this situation? Will the new rules be able to correct this problem? I'm surprised that the neighbor's home value has only decrease by 6-8K. I thought it would be more.

I am a huge supporter of deed restrictions. In the past there were fewer deed restrictions north of 466 and you could easily see the sometimes over the top lawn art there.

Deed restrictions are simply a way to protect everyone's investment. IMHO. I hope they can make this guy stop his at home business. He can rent a place out of his residential neighborhood if he wants to run a business.
