The law is SB82. The text in question is here:
the numbers 21, 22, 23, and 24 are line numbers. I bolded the applicable part.
As I said before - there's no room for interpretation. It is very specific and precise.

However, we are not talking about a local ordinance or regulation, which is by its nature one sided. A government entity establishes something that the general populace must honor. In TV, the vast majority of homeowners have agreed to a deed restriction. This was a mutually agreed upon restriction and not done by a county, municipality, or other political subdivision. That is a noteworthy difference.
