There exists a color pallet used by the Villages. This is available from the VCDD Community Standards Department. Here is the application form to change, and some CDD's use the pallet where you and your contractor can pick from, others require to see the actual sample.

If you think a home is not in compliance you can call or email or mail Architectural Review Committee of Community Standards - (352) 751-3912. Their home page is at :
Village Community Development Districts. They could also show you the current pallet if you visit them at 984 Old Mill Run (Sumter Landing).
I have attended CDD meetings where they have required a home owner to change the color of their home or shingles. They did not cave as the other poster mentioned. So there is a risk if you choose to go off and pick non-approved colors.
We all agreed to these rules when we bought our homes. You signed a contract to follow the rules.
