I am 90% retired from my business "World Radio Inc." but because the Company is still listed in my name with my address, I was told by the Deed Compliance office that I am in violation. I told them that I do no business here and even if I did, it would only be contacting my offices in New York and Rhode Island. Absolutely no disruption to anybody in the neighborhood, no traffic, no transactions, just an occasional conference call with my partner who now runs the company.

That didn't matter, I was instructed to discontinue using my home as a business location. I asked what they would do if I didn't comply. They said they would turn it over to the County for action against me. (Whatever that means). I asked about all the other people who do business: real estate agents, ebayers, home watch services, handyman services and so on. I was told that they were in violation too and would receive notices when located.

I was turned in to the Deed Compliance office by a man that we banned from TOTV a year ago. A man, who by the way, conducts a business from his home.

I want to add here that "World Radio Inc." has absolutely nothing to do with Talk of The Villages. They are totally separate. TOTV is actually located on a server in British Columbia, Canada, the IT department is in Nashville, TN and the editorial section is in Erie, Pennsylvania.

"...they would receive notices when located."? That doesn't make sense or else the powers that be can't or don't read their own newspaper or talk to anyone around here. Sounds more like someone in Deed Compliance just doesn't like/agree with you.
