It is my understanding that the Deed Restriction process is complaint driven. Therefore you can paint your house orange, own 12 dogs and surround your home with pink flamingoes. If your neighbours don't care and Village Watch doesn't notice, you're A-OK. (To be clear, Barefoot is NOT suggesting you do these things, they are not good ideas!!)

In the case of lawn signs in the north/west segment, I've been told by a Villages employee that a home owner complained about lawn signs, and this complaint prompted The Villages to enforce the existing Deed Restriction on "no lawn signs".
