In the U.S. lots of neighborhoods will have rules and a group of elected homeowners designated to enforce the rules. Sometimes, the associations disband and there is noone left to enforce the rules, then everyone does what they want. Some active ones are quite strict, even telling you what colors you can use to paint your house or how many bushes to plant in your front yard or how many cars you can park outside. It can get crazy. The goal is to keep everyone's property looking nice and keep property values from declining. They can also cause a lot of anger if someone refuses to follow the rules or if the elected people get power hungry and start picking on everyone for silly little things. Some people like to buy in these neighborhoods, some specifically look for ones without rules so they can paint their barn bright pink if they want. Most newer neighborhoods have these rules.Once Upon an Equinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08807098276875052982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806296642977794691.post-2733326134723359852009-05-14T15:58:00.000-04:002009-05-14T15:58:00.000-04:00It is for sure a good way to have to learn how to ...It is for sure a good way to have to learn how to back that trailer!<br />It looks very neat, OnceUpon.<br />But I am surprised that you have authorities (thanks for the explanation of the abreviation BTW) that set rules of how to park your trailer, or tractors if it is farmland area? Or have you to build fences around them? <br />I can see the benefit of it; it is nice to have tidy surroundings. <br />Nothing similar to it here though.<br />Hm. It is fascinating to hear what goes on in other corners of the world.HorseOfCoursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15907659164579327290noreply@blogger.com
