This made me almost giggle. I love the idea of this kind of deed restriction
or covenant, ie. houses greater than 2000 (or 2500) sq feet are not allowed.
Same with excessive lawn mowing. I'll have a smile on my face the rest of
the day. Imagine sharing the covenants for the community at the Board of
Supervisor's meetings.
