Golf Carts for sale on lawns
 
I drive Hillsborough and Moyer Loop daily and I have noticed more and more carts for sale on lawns of homes on corner lots or in back yards, if this is not stopped I am concerned that we will see car lots and used furniture sprawled on lawns with "for sale" on them. Your opinion !!!

If that’s the biggest problem we have to worry about then I guess we are in pretty good shape. The world is not coming to an end because someone has their 2011 Yamaha for sale on their lawn.

Golf cart sales on lawns are a gateway to selling puppies out of cardboard boxes, hookers leaning against lamp posts and possibly even gypsy gals doing palm readings in driveways,

village dreamer 03-04-2018 09:43 AM

who cares, let them sell anything they want.:MOJE_whot:

What's wrong with a happy ending now and then? :D

On a more serious note: I do agree, it's not pretty but is a "cart for sale" in a driveway rather than a lawn the same or worse or better? Or 12 carts PARKED on a front lawn for a Mahjong game? What about "Estate Sale" or "Garage Sale" or "Moving Sale" signs (with or without balloons) on every corner in the neighborhood of one of those sales? Or large religious symbols on holidays stuck in lawns for weeks at a time (UH OH - religion!) or 6' high Flamingo's .... or or or or.

I believe they do. Maybe it is the non-believers that need a bit more tolerance.

durmax 03-04-2018 11:42 AM

Golf carts are a lot better site and only short term compared to dogs dumping at pool and post box areas

St Charles today. Two carts in one yard with for sale signs. Looked like a used cart lot. Some always push the minor exception window.

Gessshhhh, the things people complain about!!

Chatbrat 03-04-2018 12:34 PM

When we lived in NC, a bunch of old busy body's, formed "the snoop squad", they would snoop around people's houses when no one was home & give complaints to the POA for any violation--was one reason we vowed to never live in any community governed by POA/HOA or condo association

jimbo2012 03-04-2018 12:48 PM

"The Community Standards Deed Compliance Division is entirely complaint driven.""

Correct but they have little enforcement powers in reality, all they do is write the homeowner a letter.

If they still don't comply they tell you to take them to court.

For all of you that think filing complaints you remain anonymous, think again, anyone can find out who it is.

Stop being pansies, go over to your neighbors house say hello have a beer work it out.

I agree with you. That was my point but still don't like 6' tall flamingos - or short ones. :D

As for the Church's I couldn't say with any direct knowledge since I don't attend them but I assume they should as do Synagogues (and Mosques). ;)

So what's the big deal if I occasionally park mine in my yard, on it's roof?

Again, the clash of cultures and child raising. In your face versus a turn in to the rules committee. It makes both sides see red when the others do it. But ONE IS effective. If one is reported to the deeds violation folks you are fined. UNTIL the nasty thing is changed or removed.Or the house is sold. It is a legal thing, that fine.

When you tell someone they are stupid, and unaware and rule breakers, they are never gonna like you again and it will be unpleasant forever between the two of you. Let them guess, I say, who dropped the dime. Use the phone.

One of the reasons I moved here was not see this stuff on peoples lawns which in my opinion detracts from the beauty of this place. Sadly many ignore deed restrictions and dont care about those that adhere to them. Nothing wrong with calling Community Standards...I would

JoMar 03-04-2018 05:40 PM

Going to Community Standards for this is a huge waste of time. By the time you get through the process (can easily take months) the cart will most likely be sold and gone. Same with yard sales, homes for sale by owner, and all the other short term annoyances for some, all that stuff will be over long before Community Standards is effective. Now, back to that lamp post :)

Some of you people have to much time on your hands. Join a club or something. This is ridiculous I was thinking of moving down there Here is another good reason not to. I would bet that if this yard was your golfing buddies, You wouldn't say a word. Chill out people

Most everyone here has LOT of time on their hands which is why it is the "Largest RETIREMENT community in the US." [emoji16]

While I don't agree with MOST of the picyune stuff we all b1tch about we all did sign the same (or similar) DEED RESTRICTION agreement that we are supposed to abide by as happens in most communities like this. They are in place for a reason.

You have the opportunity to decide but DO NOT decide based on the postings on ANY TYPE FORUM ANYWHERE. They generally do not reflect the views of the vast majority of residents just a small bunch of grumpy opinionated old(ish) folks like myself. I've been here a year and despite this forum I love it, warts and all. There are some things I don't like (6' flamingos [emoji2]) but live with it.

I agree. Although I do wish TV would enforce its own rules and stop pushing it off on others. Give it to the CW people.

You surely jest....eh?
Nobody would ignore the 99.87564783% of good reasons for something such as this thread takes space with.

REALLY?

Nah we will go with you jest (right?).

ColdNoMore 03-04-2018 07:01 PM

I'm averaging 3 cart sales a week...from my prime yard location.


Quite frankly though, I think it is the helium balloons, pink flamingos and half dozen cacti next to them...that are mostly responsible for the quick sales.



:D

Flamingos be damned!

graciegirl 03-04-2018 08:01 PM

Flamingos make people think you moved here from Southern Florida

It just isn't "in". :shrug:

Gosh sakes, Indy Jim.

We moved here because we like deed restrictions. Keeps ever-one in line.

No one here has to be talked into The Villages. I bet you'd like top of the world.

You are looking from afar and obviously have no idea what goes on here in TV.

The majority of the villages residents have enough to do on the average day to stay busy. Yes. There are kooks every where. Don't decide what you read on TOTV and take it as gospel and be a determining factor on deciding to move here.
