I don't live in the community in question, but I am watching this carefully because I also live in a community with no HOA in Fairfax County. This is scary to see in a county that I think of as both well funded and "competent". However my thinking is changing quickly on the competent part. [/quote]

What exactly do you think is wrong with it? Do you really want county staff deciding what is "pretty enough" to build?

The limited set back is interesting, but it doesn't look like this addition is any closer to the neighboring house than the original structure.[/quote]

Are you the owner of the house? You continually reply in such an aggressive manner trying to defend this atrocious addition that never should have been allowed to happen. [/quote]

I think it's strange you find that aggressive. The critics of this addition seem far more aggressive than anything I've written.

I don't like the way the addition looks either, but I don't think subjective notions of aesthetics should override individual property rights. If you wanted to be able to micromanage what other people build, then HOAs are always an option. It's often quite difficult to find a house that isn't in one.[/quote]
