I live in a neighborhood of scattered homes on a lake in S Texas. The deed restrictions said no mobile homes. A couple put in a very expensive double wide. Some of the neighbors tried to block it, but the court said the deed restrictions weren’t enforcable because none of the original property owners live here. Their double wide is one of the nicest homes in our area, LOL.
I did something a local old fart did not like, though it was permitted by CA laws which over rode the CC&Rs. I also did as much as I could to stay withing the CC&Rs. He melted down, threatened to have works arrested, called the city, and confronted me several times over it in public. Turns out I was not the only one he went after.
Finally I started pushing back. Unpermitted mods to property, his CC&R violations and those of his friends and family. They got him back in the box and my solar cells are doing nicely.
