But, if I put up a sign and am told to remove it, I could refuse, pointing out the district's new policy to not enforce the deed restriction allows me to place a sign. And, the district has allowed similar signs in other places. Are we going to have a situation like defining porn, "I can't define what it is, but I know it when I see it." So the district can say one sign is OK but another one is not? What will the standard be, if there is any standard? Will the standard change as new people are elected to the boards? If so, will approved signs have to be removed if the new board doesn't like them? This, to me, opens up so many potential problems. Decisions like this one will be hard to undo once formalized.

agree with you, mikeod - a great big can or worms! but i have to think that on the other side of the coin...since there has been no enforcement of signage in the past and there has not been a plethora of signs in the past, how does one come to the conclusion that there is going to be an abundance of a variety of signs in the future?
