By this I mean all the artists and craftspeople who use their homes to "maintain an inventory and equipment" and perhaps even host client visits. TV not only allows this activity, they support it with art shows and extensive coverage in the Sun.
While I agree with the spirit of the rules which is to keep people from being a nuisance to their neighborhood by running a business, clearly there are "businesses" that do not deter a neighbor's enjoyment of their property. Both artists/craftspeople and TOTV seem to fall in this latter category. Yet, only TOTV seems to be singled out for non-compliance.

The artists and the like here in TV seem to get a great deal of support from the Villagers developers and management. So, do the senior athletes. But these activities seem more like hobbies-- something someone does to pass the time and for physical/mental health-- and not for profit.
