or just get a person to answer the phone, run out and look for the violation. The complaint should only come from local residence!
This is how taxes go up. Add a level of responsibility that requires more time and work. I like that how we do it is not adding cost to anything. Add a little here and a little there and SOMEBODY has to pay for it.

The Villages Watch is doing their job and they aren't paid much for it but watching and reporting unusual happenings to the police and telling folks they left their garage door up and coming when they are called to be a "connector" to other services is very helpful. They are our not expensive but appreciated neighbors and they are not appreciated ENOUGH until you live here for several years.
