I am unable to find any rule stating this is not allowed. I was advised this is an unpublished rule that was decided upon by the Developer (will be published upon next update to rules). Sort of like having a speed limit but it is not posted. You only find the rule/law out when pulled over by an Officer.
When I asked for the name of the Developer I was advised "we are not allowed to give out that information".
Is there a special curtain to pull back in order to find out who the Developer/Wizard is?

I surely want to abide by all the ARC rules . . . just think they should be posted for all to know.

What District (CDD) are you in? If you are in the very newest area then it is possible that the area is not yet turned over to a CDD and still "owned" or "controlled" by the Developer. If that is the case then the rules and restrictions for your area may not yet be final.

If you are not in one of the newer areas then you can look your deed restrictions on districtgov.org (perhaps you have already done that). The ARC must follow those restrictions - if it isn't written and signed then it doesn't exist. The ARC cannot deny something because of a new rule that might be coming in the future.

On the other hand, the ARC is not likely to just roll over because you question them and the cost for fighting this might be more than it is really worth.
