Otherwise why have anyone sign the deed restriction paper when they buy if your not going to patrol your property with your own inspectors for violations. What’s happening here is they are doing it the cheep way. Rely on us to spy and tell on each other. This should not have to be.
I think neighborhood watch should be doing this.

Because we ALL agreed to comply. If I and most others didn't want deed restrictions, we would have moved somewhere without them.

If this change cuts down on people
looking all over TV for violations as a hobby
I’m all for it!

Serious question - Why do you care, if you are not a violater? How are you affected as someone in compliance?

Totally untrolls
By whose opinion will we determine which violation is serious enough to be acted on. Such a determination would render all unenforceable . I am opposed to all violations, and support "trolls" if that is what is needed to assure compliance.

This post is the kind of reaction that illustrates why anonymity is needed.

Read what I posted, and I’ve had experience to back up my opinion, which is as valid as yours!
Maybe as I’ve aged I’m not as rigid as some!

Who should report violations?

The Village Watch people are already paid to drive around neighborhoods 24/7. Couldn't they report violations? And if a homeowner saw a violation, how about if they call Village Watch to file complaint, anonymously or otherwise?

I am a person who does not run to protection behind the police. I do not go to mommy and daddy, simply put i approach the issue head on, face to face, man to man.

I don’t think anyone should have the right to report. Community Watch rides around all day and night, they should be the only ones reporting violations

So communicate

What should someone do if say, a neighbor puts in an above ground metal pool? Or puts a car up on blocks. Is that OK or should you be able to report it to a deed violation department?
Why not talk to the neighbor first, they may not know they are in violation.

All residents should have the right as they ALL agreed to the covenants. Community Watch is riding "around all day" for resident safety, not for deed issues.

Then the guy knocking on the door from compliance is doing them a favor, while there isn't going to be bad blood with the neighbor using the current system. If I accidentally violate, I would hate to inconvenience a neighbor by requiring them to be the ones to tell me.

Well I like it here but the complaints are annoying I prefer my freedom to choose some like control

Tried to get a permit to widen my driveway 4 feet at my patio villa, I was told 2 ft was the maximum allowed. There are around 7 driveways in my neighborhood that have exceeded the 2 ft maximum and look nice. I am going to have mine widen 2 ft and live by their rules.
