Come to find out my neighbor was eves dropping and heard the conversation and came over and told him that gates were not allowed. I wasn't home at the time so when I got home I went over to ask my neighbor what was up. It was then that she told me that gates were not allowed because she applied for approval on one and was denied. And then proceeded to tell me that if she couldn't put up a gate then why should I be. Personally I'm offended that she was eves dropping on our conversation and that she called the committee on something that we were just discussing! It is my property and it's my consequences if I do something not allowed! This of course is my personal feelings on the matter.
That's pretty sad for a neighbor to do. At the very least go directly to you first and not just jump straight out to authorities on something that hasn't even happened.
