So, to me, now the board has set a policy for this one area of TV and the matter is settled. Do you live in Lake County/Lady Lake that this particular discussion is about? If not, then I suggest, very respectively, that you go to the appropriate meeting that does affect where you own in TV and voice your concerns.
Perhaps these things haven't happened as yet because some people were reluctant to violate a deed restriction. Now that the AAC has basically said it is OK to continue to put up signs in violation of the deed restrictions, why should any other restriction be any different?

The matter is definitely not settled, as seen by the admission of counsel that the developer and/or homeowners can legally sue to enforce the restrictions.

From prior posts I can see that you have a very vested interest in the restrictions being ignored. But I also have an interest in looking at TV as a whole community, not a collection of separate districts. I have seen the result of that in several communities where different developers built separate neighborhoods that were dramatically different from each other, dragging down the value and appearance of the whole area. I bought here because I believe deed restrictions as set forth are necessary for the long term success of this community.
