Well, no. To put a finer point on it, the gov't will tell you that you can't do that. The neighborhood association is getting the gov't to change the law so you can't do that.

I'm not saying I disagree with the idea, but it's an awful lot of gov't involvement which always makes me pause. Will this improve the neighborhood or stifle and stagnate it? No way to know in advance.
