The deed restrictions are very vague and left to interpretation.
>>Actually they are very specific and I don't see where any interpretation is required. Can you cite an example?
Every district has different restrictions, one of ours is no satellite dishes but many have them.
>>Satellite dishes are in the deed restrictions but this is one area where Federal Law overrules. You can put up a satellite dish. The deed restrictions for most of the "southern" Villages are the same. When it doubt, refer to districtgov.org.
Mine does say no “lawn” ornaments. My front yard is 100% “yard” but only 50% “lawn” or grass which is another word for lawn. This tells me I have no restrictions among the bushes and mulch.
>>You can try to make that case but if you are cited for a violation and fail to comply you will be fined. You can certainly try to fight it in court but you will lose. I have seen this before.
I agree that those turning people in have an axe to grind against someone and will keep doing it until everyone is handled.
>>Someone may have an ax to grind but if you are compliant there is nothing to file a complaint against and if a complaint is filed where no infraction exists it will be for naught.
It would be funny to flock them with pink flamingos but I feel it could be dangerous if this person was found out.
