We came back to our new home in Hadley when we first lived here part time to find literally dozens of little "gookies and gee gaws and ceramic thingys " in the yard of a very near neighbor. I quickly phoned community standards and told them.
One of the reasons many of us chose the Villages is because of deed restrictions. I find that the anonymous reporting may be chicken to some but far easier for others. I don't see anything WRONG about someone seeing something in another neighborhood obviously not allowed and reporting it. That doesn't make my skin crawl at all.

To the best of our knowledge we have no violations and plan to keep it that way.
If I saw a neighbor with what I thought was a violation would mention it nicely to them. I do not think I would report them unless they were offensive but thats me.
To ride around the villages to look for people to report think those people have two have much time on their hands.
Will they also write down when we have grandchildren visiting to make sure they are gone within 30 days?
What else will they be watching us for?
