A 3-4 foot fence would keep in some dogs, but many dogs easily could and would jump them. Since I don't need a taller fence for my dog, should I favor short fences and oppose taller ones, even though taller ones would solve the same problem for my neighbors?
Sure, I could justify changing the rules only enough to accommodate my needs by arguing that short fences are prettier than tall fences. But if that's my excuse, no fences is even prettier and more justfied. Canuk, CYV = Courtyard Villa |

And, of course, I see no reason why I should be forced purchase a fence just because somebody moves into the neighborhood with a dog(s).

Part of the beauty of The Villages is the expansive stretches of green space.
The Developer knew what he was doing when he outlawed fences! And we all knew about the "no fence" policy before we purchased. CYVs provide a perfect solution for those wanting privacy or a yard for their dogs.

Sometimes fences do make good neighbors.

I think I know the answer to my question in my case. Every place I lived had houses on top of each other. Sometimes within 10 feet. Although, my inlaws in Ocala live in a development with homes on two acre lots and most are fenced in so I still remain puzzled as to the sharp division of views. No matter because we have the choice in the Villages. |

Anyway, my present development has strict rules about what kind of fence, how high, what color, etc. Even control the color of you home and type of screen door. I can understand why it is not desireable in TV given the large number of homes. I am sitting here in a very small development in-between a farm and horse ranch and you can bet the horse ranch is fenced in. |

One thing I have learned in life is that people are always in favor of regulating things that do not affect them. As you indicated, you would not like them disallowing golf carts. |

I agree and if you read my post you will see that I am just curious as to why so many people do not want fences as I have lived in 6 CC&R developments where people felt differently about fences. I want the strict regulations which is why I am moving here. We could have gotten a bigger home with a pool and half acre for the same amount we spent in TV. What turned us off was that no matter how ritzy the area, there was always some lawns with burnt grass or clunkers in the driveways. Not for us.

I think that sometimes people read other people's response to a post and then base their reply on that rather than the original post. Either that or I have a serious problem in making myself clear. |

Why am I replying to every reply to my OP
Guess I just do not want to be misunderstood like Dr. Pepper. I repeat. I am all in favor of restrictions but I have found in the various places I live that fencing has never been one of them so I wanted to know why it is different here.
I bought a CYV so I have no problems about fences. In fact I forbid you all to put up a fence because I like to see all the open land when I drive around. Now if we could just get those pesky death trap golf carts banned.... |

They allow fences now in Bison Valley, I know that is not TV, but when we bought in there no fences were allowed. Then they started allowing fences on part of the yard, now we got people putting up the vinyl fences around their property line. SO if your neighbors all put a fence, then you are by no choice fenced in. So my question would be.........
Who is responsible for cleaning the the outside of the fence? Me, even it is not my fence. Or the owner of the fence, in that case they would have to come in my yard with pressure washer to clean the thing??? If you start with no fences, then you should not allow them later...... I know some of the people have them for their pets. One of the houses has a fence with dogs and the whole backyard is full of piles of ***&*&*
