Anonymous? What ever happened to "bring my accuser before me?" I know from personal experience that deed compliance acts solely on the calls of an anonymous complainant. It is absolutely the perfect way to harass somebody without having to be held accountable for the accusation.

I seem to remember something I learned in history class about a time when people were expected to call the authorities and report activities of their neighbors? What country was that?........oh, I forget.

Now, I'm not saying that we should turn a blind eye to deed violations. I am saying that if you are going to call and make a report, you should be willing to go on the record as having made the complaint.
