We live in the Marion County Portion of the Villages... Chatham... In this portion of the Villages, there are no lawn ornaments allowed (thank you Jesus) However, if it's on your porch or under the eaves of the house, it is allowed... Anything else must be part of the landscaping such as flowering pots...
I really like this restriction... if you wonder why, just drive through some of the older sections where this is NOT a restriction... You could be living next door to Pee-Wee Herman!!!
I don't believe this has anything to do with the "Virgin Mary" or any religious innuendo... It's a restriction for The Villages and I am very happy with it... Even when they told me I had to remove my very nice Wooden Lighthouse from my front flower bed...
