I agree with JustJim wholeheartedly. We have always sought to live in areas with deed restrictions. It protects the value of your property and keeps wild individual expressions of creativity at bay.

But nonetheless Wiotte, the rules hold. We do have deed restrictions and in many, not all, areas, but assuredly south of 466, you must have permission to put ornaments of any kind in your front yard. Things are allowed to be displayed up close to the home, under the eaves.

And if one does not comply, they will be fined. It isn't singling anyone out at all. I am not ashamed to say that I would report someone. I did. Our neighbor in Hadley had many, many, ornaments when we returned for the winter and I called.
