I disagree.
What you're implying is that existing owners...who vote NO would be grandfathered in. You are also implying that "the villages" is an HOA. You are not alone in this assumption. Fact is the villages is simply a planned housing development with covenants just like a lot of other neighborhoods in America. It is governed by an elected governing board of a city or county. Here they call them CDD's. Any covenant enforced by a government body should be considered just like any other zoning ordinance. You cannot have a cow on your property in the villages because zoning ordinance to do not allow it. If there is a rental covenant that comes under the jurisdiction of the CDD it is just like any other zoning ordinance. I have not read the actual covenant on rental or commercial property. I assume it exists because people are talking about it. If the commissioners of the CDD will not enforce zoning then they held accountable at the ballot box. The power is in your hands.
