The article discusses that not all CDDs have the same regulations and that "violations" are treated differently (e.g. lawn ornaments).

So, last year it looks like there were 6,473 complaints submitted (ranging from 419-760 per CDD), mostly anonymously.

Which of the 13 CDDs has the most restrictive and least restrictive POA covenants? Is there a summary document that shows the various differences, or is it "buyer beware" to read through multiple documents?
One of those CDDs around Lake Sumter REQIRES married couples to hold hands and walk 2 abreast on the same side of the residential street as vehicles. Very restrictive!
