Observer, did you find a good place for your loved one with Alzheimers? I know how hard that can be. You are right, there are so many good people here.

There are many lawn ornaments in Gilchrist.
I have never seen anything offensive.
Cannot imagine calling Community standards.

Then don't.......but just because you don't find stuff offensive doesn't mean someone else doesn't. I'm still amazed that people buy a house here, know what the deed restrictions are then for some reason, think they don't apply to them. Let the trolls continue the patrol.

Lots of lawn ornaments here in Santiago. I have come to enjoy them. To get to my house, you make a left at the sparkly tree, then turn right at the donkeys.

Is it true it's not a lawn ornament if water runs through it?

Too bad because people just want to personalize their property.

A great post!

Now when someone comes home after they've had one or two too many,
they have an excuse for walking into the wrong house.
They all look the same!

Viva Levittown!!!

There is one in every neighborhood, I think. I'd like to know what makes those people so much more special than the ones who keep their word and do what they agreed to do.

I understand wanting to personalize your property, but come on. We all agreed to the terms when we bought. I don't understand why someone would agree, then break the agreement, and then have the nerve to get upset when they're reported for not following the terms they signed to follow!

Someone who breaks such a simple agreement so readily just proves to me they can't be trusted.

Remember, you can do anything with permission, south of 466. Take it by ARC. They may agree it's lovely. North of 466 their restrictions are less, so if you haven't moved here and are pining for a cannon or a large carved bear to show your individuality, go for it.

And there will always be those who feel deed restrictions do not apply to them. And that their taste in decorating must be accepted by everyone else despite violating the restrictions they agreed to when they bought here.

Loving the Villages....residents are a hoot! Thanks for all the advise, rule interpretation, etc. Know that my lovely mermaid is sunning herself in private in our backyard. Glad to hear that it was just some law enforcing neighbor/guest that reported my transgression and not a vigilant Troll police making his rounds....making his quota of complaint citations! I have no problem with the restrictions, but did believe it didn't apply to my area since others had lawn ornaments.....but now we are ALL in compliance. Viva complaint management, long live Mrs. Kravites

Listen to graciegirl re the ARC. We put in a two-level herb garden by our front door. We got approval from the ARC just to be safe. Now no herb-hating troll can take it away from us.

Let me clarify a bit, it is true most anything seems to go north of 466 if you're in Sumter County. Once you enter Marion County which starts just behind Harmeswood it becomes very strict again I know because I live there LOL
