It is very distracting to watch tv with with the light in the side of my vision. I no longer sit on my lanai at night to enjoy the peace and tranquility- instead I feel like I am in Wille Wonka’s chocolate factory. Of course it doesn’t bother the owners because they are inside but the light shines at my windows all night. Mounting such a light is prohibited in the deed restrictions. I do not want to confront the neighbors personally but this definitely decreases the enjoyment of my house. My next door neighbors shut their blinds but I hate a closed in feeling. The light changes colors every few seconds. It is kind of a psychedelic experience.
What you describe is a completely different situation than the ladies in the carts visiting neighborhoods they don't live in looking for violations that don't affect them. You are being directly affected by a violation. It may be that the offenders think everyone is enthralled with their "enhancement", or it may be that they don't care. Doesn't matter. If you are comfortable with introducing yourself and explaining your problem, go for it. If not, and you live in a CDD that allows anonymous complaints, do that. Either way, you are totally within your rights to have this situation rectified.
