It's not brain surgery or nuclear science. The rules are quaint, and mostly used as a guide, NOT LAW. Some folks enjoy Freedom and Liberty and think that most rules of this sort are flexible. Rules to allow the authority to rule against big signs, old cars on blocks, unkempt lawns, crazy house colors, etc. I doubt anyone (maybe I'm wrong) thought that this development would be so sterile as to appear that we live on military housing. Isn't it interesting that each district has a different set of deed restrictions? In my district, just about everything goes. It seems that the newer the district, the more restrictive. And yet, no one is having trouble selling their homes due to house values being degraded by someone's disorderly/violation of a property. Go figure.
None of the homes in my neighborhood are offensive to me. And believe me when I say that some of them have some pretty cluttered properties. But, my preference doesn't matter to them and theirs does not matter to me.
