Hi Mike,

We appreciate the concern.

They want me to tear it down, even though the "Giudelines" starting at the bottom of  page 6,  say that "every numbered lot in every section" bordering land that

won't be developed such as the golf course, get extra coverage points, even though under Exceptions it says if no harm is done the exception should be granted. Noone we have talked to have found any problem with the porch. It doesn't block anyones view, the house doesn't overpower the lot and we are the only house on our bloch our of eight without a porch, so if we are to be in architectural harmony with our neighbors as the "Guidelines" prescribe what do we do? How do you like them apples? My wife Mary Jean is on the verge of a nervous break down over this. We have appollogized repeatedly, offered to pay a reasonable fine etc. We are all partners and neighbors in OP. I don't know anyone who has experienced such negativeness or unreasonableness in a HOA.
