What you signed when you originally moved here has nothing to do with what you do after you take up residency. This statement is made to all the people who are against anonymous complaints
I really disagree with you. Nobody "has the right to face his accuser" in The Villages. This isn't a democracy. You signed a contract to act/not act in a certain way when you bought your house, and these are the rules as the developer deemed necessary or convenient to running The Villages.


Nobody made you sign that contract and buy that house, so you knew the rules coming in.


And there is no rule that the violation must be visible from your premises. There were people who live in our neighborhood who couldn't see from their homes but who had to drive by eyesores on both corners of our street at three different times in the last few years. They rightly felt it brought the neighborhood down.
