Really? Seriously? you moved to the Villages because they have deed restrictions. OK. I do understand it playing a part. In NY we had one man angry at the local government architectural review board.He wanted double pane storm windows with the woodenseperators snapped on so it looked like multiple panes. The ARB would only accept actual individual panes held in by the pins, putty and wood. He found something that was not addressed in the docs. You had to have your home either natural cedar, stone, or painted using colors in existence in 1903 (year the town was founded). It did not say you needed to pick one color. He painted each cedar shake a different color (total of 9 colors so it was an assortment of 9 repeating colors. Deed restrictions may have been good.
