The same can be said about busybodies that that have nothing better to do in life than to try and find fault in others.

Isn't it true that even if a report is made, the authorities check things out themselves before any action is taken? And if so, then how is this any different (except in degree, of course) than calling the cops when you see someone acting suspiciously, or reporting a shoplifter to the store manager?

I can see where this would be irritating, maybe a major inconvenience if the the authorities verify that that they're in violation of something and are required to make it right. But aren't they doing all of us (except the violators, of course) a favor?
Soviet Union also had neighbors informing in others. Want that too?

Nazi Germany was infamous for informants.

Thanks to the OP for confirming the existence of these ladies.
If they were to travel along our street they would be reporting just about every house. Nearly all have something that doesn’t fully conform. But we are neighbours and I mean that in the true spirit of the word. We enjoy not being too uniform. I’m sure if there was something too much beyond the standard we would do the neighbourly thing and have a quite word. Our view is - be kind.

it's a new form of golf cart scavenger hunt. The neighborhood group leaves the rec center for a two hour period, Winner is cart that finds the most deed violations with cell phone pictures and addresses as proof.

I certainly hope that the nosy busybodies get put in their place when they attempt to turn in their tattling reports.

So, those that think that the story of Troll Ladies is just an urban legend, can rest assured that they really do exist and are busy informing on your neighbors (or maybe you).
Next time you see them hold up one of the little white crosses and I will bet they will both burst into flames. At least their white hair will catch fire

But the info has to be legibly written on paper backed by a clipboard otherwise the answer doesn't count. Also, if you name is on your golf cart, you are disqualified.

The people that ignore the restrictions are self serving, egotistical and narcissistic. They could care less about anyone else.


You go two ladies and anyone else with the cajones to help enforce the regs. Most of us know by now that if someone doesn't point out a house that steps over the line that is set that nothing will be done.

If a person or people don't like it....move.
That's a great idea. Next, we could take the previous suggestion and pay people in Community Watch and Deed Compliance to do that. Then, so there is no confusion, we could issue them uniforms, perhaps with an armband that has some symbol on it. We could encourage any neighbors to "turn in" violators as well. Next, we could give these "enforcers" the authority to destroy anything that is considered a violation. For safety, we will need to arm these officials with automatic weapons. Then we could unleash the media (Daily Sun) to build these violators into an existential threat to the rest of us. After that, they could take your suggestion and "move" violators, perhaps to a camp of some kind. Be careful of what you wish for---those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
