screaming

"screwball noun [C] (PERSON)


mainly US informal
a person who behaves in a strange and funny way"

SCREWBALL | definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary

Screaming screwball is not misdescriptive of this individual but apt.

The squares are indeed "open to the public" and in that sense are a "public place".

Most Villagers are aware the landscaping rights of owners are subject to restrictive covenants.
