Is it not possible, at this time, to make new rules in the older sections that are so lenient with the clutter on properties? I can see why the newer villages look more pristine than the older section. The developer is building new homes in the historic section where the pre-fab homes stood. Wouldn't the developer want this section to be as pristine as the newer sections?

I would much prefer to see healthy grass and healthy plants and trees only. Nix the other chotskies. Too many on a property and it looks schlocky (is that really a word?) You get the idea.

I suggest that you remember when people buy a home in the villages from the original home owner. The new home owners don't sign any rules. After a while you will have no rules that can be inforced by the villages.
That is simply incorrect. Deed Restrictions follow the deed.

Not in my old neighborhood, but I used to pass a home in NJ that had a life size buffalo statue on his front lawn. The property had a very large set back from the street but the buffalo was very visible. At Christmastime, the buffalo wore a huge wreath around his neck.

Deed restrictions run with the land no matter who owns the property. They are recorded in the land records of the county and are public info. They remain in force forever, unless the State or Federal govt passes a law making them inoperative as in the case of American Flags in Florida. A new buyer should be informed by his attorney or the real estate professional representing him of the restrictions. Failure to be informed does no relieve one from the responsibility to comply ( but may be cause for action against attorneys or agents). Any property owner subject to the same recorded restrictions has standing to go to court ( if necessary) to inforce such restrictions. Petitions to change restrictions normally require a super majority of those property owner which are subject to the restraints (up to 100per cent ) to compel changes.

I've seen many white crosses in folks' back yards......those are the yards that face the main roads such as Odel Circle. That is just like placing the yard ornaments in the front yard, actually.
