Who would want to live in a vinyl sided neighborhood? If a street isn’t already spoiled by it, why not keep it out. Just replace the most weathered wood with Hardiplank or some similar material, one side at a time, until the whole house is done. In the time it takes for that to happen, vinyl would have been replaced twice over, or ended up looking worse than peeling paint.

Get real Town Council! I’ve been watching these antics for the last 30 years. You’ve got to understand they have a code and their terms are set up to fulfill their own design. They take the children’s playground and design it to meet the needs of the adults. Nothing about it says we are here for families. The children’s playground is hidden and they probably wish it would disappear. Now you can’t find love for an old house and the family it sheltered. I always took my notes from the old folks and their way of thinking. My family is not going to allow you to tax them out of existence. We are survivors and so are our friends and neighbors! It’s all right to move to a place, but respect the people who know the lay of the land.

Living in the New Quarter at Bay Creek, which is part of Cape Chuckles, we ALL have vinyl siding. Are you going to tell us it has to be replaced with an “approved” material? I think not. Instead of fussing over vinyl siding being used, why don’t you put some effort into cleaning up the remaining eyesores throughout the town? But that would make sense so, sorry I asked.
