Sorry to disagree with OpusX1, but if there is an association involved as in TV, the law does not say you can install it anywhere. The FAQ sheet published by the FCC states the following with regard to community restrictions:

“Some communities have written restrictions that provide a prioritized list of placement preferences so that residents can see where the association wants them to install the antenna. The residents should comply with the placement preferences provided the preferred placement does not impose unreasonable delay or expense or preclude reception of an acceptable quality signal.”

And here is a link to the Guidelines for Use of Satellite Dishes posted on The Villages Community Development District’s web site.

It’s pretty straightforward. If you hire a local professional who is familiar with the guidelines, they should have little trouble locating a site for your dish that is acceptable to you and the Architectural Committee.
