I think this is your key. You should be able to put pots or other planters in the space. You may be able to cover the area next to the fence with gravel, and then put the planters on the gravel. Or, put big pavers down and put the planters on top of the pavers - so they don't sink into the grass.

"Permanent" doesn't mean it has to be easy to move, just that it is not dug/grown into the ground.

Find a landscaping company familiar with The Villages and ask them. There are lots of Verandas and I'm sure many other people have the same restrictions and landscapers have figured out solutions.

Ignore those telling you to flagrantly break the rules and hope you don't get caught. That can become very expensive - as numerous people in TV have learned.
