Once again, I must remind you to read your declaration of covenants. The last section states that you, as an owner, have an obligation to see that the restrictions are enforced, up to and including litigation.

My first weekend down here after closing on my home, I went for a ride in the golf cart with my sister and my son (he's 21). We rode past the town square just after 9 Pm when things were winding down and passed a group of women who were late 20's to early 30's. I'll put this as nicely as possible but they were dressed like hookers. My sister said "why would they want to come here to party?" My son quickly replied "lookin for a sugar daddy!" I guess he's wise beyond his years.

Derail a three year old thread?
Not sure what this has to do with "TV Restriction Violations".

I was replying to the post about only allowing TV residents at the live entertainment at the squares. I don't look at the age of a thread on the front page, I just read the ones that may contain a topic of interest to me. Sorry if my post touched a nerve.

I made the same mistake the other day. :o

Apparently, there is a statute of limitations on threads. :oops:

I do know of a couple of kids living in TV in direct violation of the covenants. In one instance, the father died and the mother is serving in Iraq. The neighbors are well aware of the grandchild living there. They also know the circumstances. The grandparents are aware they are in violation but everyone felt it was in the best interests of all for the child to stay here. The grandparents actually spoke to each of their neighbors to explain the situation and all are in agreement that the child can stay for two years. The child is quiet and well-behaved and the darling of the block. Pool use is a non-issue -- they have their own pool. Neighbors fight to babysit. I doubt they would be as willing if it were a permanent situation but it is temporary and the child is truly adorable.

In the other situation that I know of, the grandparents were not as forthright and it is creating major issues. Odds are the grandparents will be selling their home and moving away -- they have custody of their grandson, who has some major issues. No one has reported them but the neighbors are pretty unhappy.

There are other rules broken in TV -- some deliberate, some completely unknowingly. I got a notice because my Queen Palm was trimmed on a Saturday but pick up wasn't until Wednesday. I thought it was okay to leave the fronds in the driveway. Apparently not. This was one time I ignored the notice since I knew it would be taken care of before anything could be done.

I have a neighbor working on his antique car in the driveway -- a definite no-no. He'll continue doing so until Community Watch stops it. He cleans up every afternoon and if the car isn't going to be worked on the following day, it goes into the garage. Most of us in this development won't report him. I'm sure one snowbird will if she comes down before the work is done.

The point is rules are broken and, personally, I think things should be taken on a case-by-case basis. A lot will depend on the neighbors as to what happens. Some things (unkempt lawns/weeds/dirty exterior) will be reported by CW when noticed. Some things will only come to light if someone complains. Some things will be discovered by TV because of ID cards, etc., especially now that everyone over the age of 1 must have some sort of card to use any TV facility.

That's the least we can do , since the mother is putting her LIFE ON THE LINE FOR OUR FREEDOM..........

I'm working on learning to ignore the message board police. I wasn't watching for the statute of limitations thing. Never understood why someone posts to complain about how old a thread is. Umm, you just bumped it up to the top, when it may have drifted right off the front page without your bump! Lol!
