follow what most residents are doing regarding metal birds or other yard ornaments they might like. Lawn ornaments in most districts not allowed according to deed restrictions. However, you can have a dozen large flower pots in your front yard filled with flowers (all legal) but very “tacky” IMHO but not a little white cross. (Not legal). Moral of this post read your deed restrictions.

I used to live in a deed restricted sub. But the homeowners could govern themselves. If a rule doesn't make sense an amendment could be enacted. This creepy place is much different - the homeowners really have no say even if it is a majority. The poor people in D7 with the mis-colored roofs. Sure it was their doing, but if all the homeowners are OK with it, why can't the CDD "supervisors" try to get the developer to make an amendment. It's a shame that they work for the developer and not for the homeowners. The reason they don't want to help the Villa roof people is they don't want to open themselves to work (they call it Pandora's box)
