And I suspect you would need to overcome more than a little resistance about the amount of amenity fees that would be need to build and maintain the playgrounds.
According to the article, a "playground" need only have one piece of equipment, so not a lot space would be needed. As to affecting the status of TV, I don't see how it could -- we already have a playground by Lake Sumter Landing. It would be nice if our grandkids had a few more places to run around and play. Imagine a day of golf cart rides going from one rec center to climb on the pirate ship, then to the next for the swings and so on. Could be great fun for all.

I certainly wouldn't mind something that would at least prevent registered sex offenders from residing here. Of course, there's still the risk of the unregistered ones or the ones who were never caught.
