No vehicle, with a load capacity of one (1) ton or greater, including but not limited to commercial trucks, trailer trucks, and buses shall be parked or stored overnight or longer on any lot in the Section or Subdivision in such a manner as to be visible to the occupants of other lots in the Section or Subdivision or the users of any street, waterway or golf course within the Section or Subdivision, unless the prior written approval of the Committee has been obtained."           

In many states such as Florida, a commercial vehicle is defined as a vehicle that has the capacity to carry more than 1 ton of weight, it does not mean it has to be a truck, tandem axle trailers can be and are classified as commercial vehicles, because they are rated to carry 2,000 lbs or more.

In my view there should be no trailers of any kind allowed and I would vote for a DR change to that effect. However, I suspect too many boat owners would not vote in favor to protect their own convenience as opposed to the overall appearance and property values of the community. I have no doubt many would disagree with me.

It does not appear that OPA has any desire to eliminate boat trailers but if they do go to court over Martys utility trailer I would hope that one of the goals would be to have this wording on trailers in the current DRs clarified. At the very least it would save billions of posts on the forum.
