Typical bureacracy.  :-)

Hmmm, I wonder if the lack of enforcement might create an "eminent domain"
type of situation.  By this I mean that because others have been raising
these animals and you can prove that the association's been legally notified
and they chose not to enforce the rules you can then raise animals not
specifically covered in the cc&rs.  CC&Rs are one thing we specifically did
=not= want when we moved last year.  :-/

This guy's an old world Basque.  He's over 60 and can walk any 3 people I
know into the ground and I won't mention how they castrate the ram lambs.
Takes a =real= man to do that...  :-)
