I'll bet there's no addenda sent to new homeowners to let them know about that.
It should be illegal to have invalid/illegal clauses in deed restrictions. And a buyer should be able to take the deed restrictions to a lawyer to line out any invalid restrictions.
Things like the clothesline and antenna issues are well known. Having them in there only intimidates ignorant buyers.
The recent growing food in front yards law ought to force some changes to deed restrictions.
