No you do not, just asked the deed compliance office and they will send it to you! That is a fact.

Nip it in the bud.
 

One man's Garden Gnome is another man's pile of dog poop.

Just follow the restrictions in the area where you live and Code Compliance won't bother you.

I would like to put a 43' aluminum mast (not a flag pole) in my yard, but it is prohibited. Maybe I could start with a 6' mast and have it grow over time. If you don't nip it in the bud and you give me an inch, I might take a mile later.

Ask for it.
 

No problem. The point was that the poster stated that the information could not be found on the web site, and I was saying that you must ask for it.

Does anyone find it ironic that when a handful of folks were doing aerobics in a neighborhood pool, posters were all riled up because "rules are rules." It wasn't even clear that this practice was verboten.

Now, in the case of yard ornaments, rules should be overlooked.

I don't have a dog in either fight. Just sayin...

So, to me, there are three issues:

First, the issue of deed restrictions being violated. This should be corrected by individual homeowners. You signed the paper. If you didn't like the restrictions, you should have moved further north where there are less restrictions. This is pretty black and white to me.

Next, we have the issue of a mean-spirited, petty individual complaining about every violation she sees, even in neighborhoods that do not impact her in the least. Let the neighbors deal with it. They're the ones who have to live with it. And, if you have to drive by the offender constantly, I put you in the neighbor category, so do what you feel is right.

The biggest issue is that we are forced to be tattletales if there is a problem. That's just wrong. Community Watch can easily see issues and can just as easily report same to Community Standards. It should not be our job.

Rules are meant to be bent. I would much rather look at a bronze egret then a pair of undies hanging on the line.

What rules are meant to be bent????? The choice is not egrets or undies, it's neither,

I haven't had time to read every response, but from what I understand, the couple that has this vendetta against EVERYONE had something in their yard that was complained about.

So, in essence, someone's need to tattle on this couple started this ball rolling.

Wow, this is getting like the kid's game of "Telephone".

I pretty much agree.I've never turned in my neighbors for anything mainly because I'm busy living my own life, I don't memorize regulations and codes, and I'm not consumed with my neighbors' business. No one issued me orders and binoculars.:beer3:

Thank you challenger

What rules are meant to be bent? Any stupid rule that makes me supposedly have to turn in my neighbor for minor infractions. Give me a break. Short of painting your house hot pink I don't give a good rat's behind what you do. Live and let live. I'm not going to memorize silly rules. I'd much rather just live my life.

No one has said that you need to turn anyone in.
