3) people who are neutral - they don't care either way.

I am attempting to come up with a solution where all sides are satisfied. Would it be possible to have one of the new villages be pet-free? You would know going in that you couldn't have a pet and that none of your neighbors could have one.

This would seem to satisfy all parties. If you loved pets, you would probably have more neighbors with pets in those villages that allowed pets. If you didn't love pets, you would live in a village where pets are not allowed - people from an adjacent village could not walk their dogs in the pet-free villages.

And if you are neutral on pets, you could decide if you wanted to live in a village that allowed pets or you could decide if you wanted to live in a pet-free village. This would seem to be a win-win-win. You could live where you wanted and everyone should be satisfied.

But would it work?
Interesting!! How about another village where no noisy grandchildren can visit or another where no one can have any party outside or another where (fill in the blanks…….). Living in a great community is good enuf for me. Except I wish they would allow pet goats….so cute
