That someone derives some sort of joy from riding around in neighborhoods removed from their own, just to point out deed restriction violations is ridiculous, and mean spirited.

The Villages is one big community trying to establish standards which enhance the community. These standards have evolved as the community grows. There is plainly a reason that they ban fences, mailboxes along the street, sheds etc. Other restrictions may be less obvious but likely have valid reasons. We, the property owners need to adhere to these standards and put our big people pants on if in non-compliance. It shouldn't be an issue with the reporter of the compliance or where they are located. The problem is the person in non-compliance.
I have no idea why flowers too close to the road are non-compliant. It may be something as simple as trying control front yard lawn appearance.
