You can complain to deed compliance, but UNLESS the thing that irritates you is non compliant, then they cannot move, act, do anything at all , It is not just your call, it has to be against the rules and regulations. Sometimes people come on this forum and misrepresent the facts. Sometimes they outright lie. Sometimes they come on here and are thrown off of this forum for their behavior. I know a person posting right now that has been removed under seven different screen names at least. Many of us are skeptical because anonymity is a very powerful tool to say whatever you want to say. I have read this forum for a long time and have heard people complain about a lot of things, some were valid, some were exaggerated and some were their view. I think that the deed restrictions that we have are fair. I think most people who live here are fair and mostly kind. Rules are rules. In major sports when someone breaks the rules, you don't hear the official say, That's O.K. he told me before the game he had a headache. I think that if we all really knew the whole story on anything we read on here, we would have different views. I am kinda like Judge Judy, if it doesn't sound right, I am skeptical. Most people can sense meanness and subterfuge. I have not been called on anything yet by deed compliance. If I were I would be embarrassed and maybe feel picked on, but I would change whatever needed to be changed. I will try as long as I can to keep up my property and when I can't, well, it is time to live somewhere else.

Cigar smoke travels much farther than kissing lanais. Gear up for the doorbell ringing!

We ran a camp of 800 nice religious families and they stayed for six months. The rules were simple as too many rules complicate rather than help. One rule was that if you had a problem with a neighbor, you spoke quietly to him in private. If it took a second time, you brought a witness but still it was just between the three of you. 99% of things were settled peacefully and there was no need to run to management. Yet if management got involved, it wasn't hidden but open to all to learn and all parties exposed so people could come to their own understanding. It worked for us. In my own very humble opinion, I find it difficult to reconcile a person who covertly turns in their neighbors over a slight(nothing catastrophic) yet greets those neighbors with overtly friendly smiles pretending to be a saint. When this happened, and I'd did, human nature has many sides, the person was invariably found out eventually. |
