The Villages Compliance people, by requiring that Deed Restriction Enforcement be “complaint driven” are violating the spirit of the law. All of the deed restrictions should be enforced by an entity given the authority to do so by the CDDs without regard to whether a resident complains.
Investments were made based upon material representations contained within the deed. There was no written disclosure that enforcement was arbitrary or selective.

This is another post I agree with. I am not the kind of person that wants to turn in my neighbor because of something like a lawn ornament (AND NEVER HAVE). I would rather the restrictions simply be enforced.
IMO it is not relevant that the neighbors do not mind an infraction in a particular 'hood. We are all Villagers, these are all our neighborhoods and we have all signed up for this. My deed restriction does not state you will not have lawn ornament that your neighbors do not like, it simply says you will not. Not subjective, not personal…
