The committee has some discretion to enforce or not enforce. A committee might be of the view that the frequency or quantity of the washing in this case is so minor as to not be worth enforcing. Or they might have some other reason, which may or may not be reasonable. Perhaps they are just prioritising the limited time and energy of a group of volunteers to something they consider more important than the offence caused to some by visible smalls?That would test whether a majority of owners feel this is necessary or reasonable.
I did write a response to this immediately but its not featuring now! Anyway,what i wrote was that its really silly to have legislation,but when one tries to implement it,everyone seems to develop cold feet! Its almost like the law is on the side of the law breakers!! When the majority is on the side of the ones breaking by laws consistently for 5 years,then what comes to mind is this- “Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it” Leo Tolstoy.
