Bamboo!
The Bermuda grass is a great idea, too. That will drive OCD lawn types nuts. I can’t stand that crap.

Seems counterproductive…Dig a pool. Lay in it. Hire a contractor to fill in the pool.
Problem solved.
Sounds like a rich white neighborhood. Put Black Lives Matter signs in your yard and when they tell you no signs in the yard start calling them racist.

Nah, Dems are now fully the party of the rich. 100% guarantee these obsessive board members would be all about BLM signs and the nauseating “In this House, we believe…” signs. If you really wanted to piss them off with a sign, get a Trump 2024 or “There are only two genders” sign.
Best thing to do short of moving would be run against and try to unseat them. Take away their power trip.
But I’d just move if it’s a realistic option.
I always liked the initial mission of the HOA, but it seems futile since there’s rentals popping up in our neighborhood
Plus we have a neighborhood developer who wants to build apartments all over , and has blocked some nice views some folks formerly had. I get capitalism, but I also get stakeholdership.Just like government, HOAs are just one election away from being evil.
I think a lot of people can relate. Served one year and never will again. From dealing with unreasonable members to very unreasonable board members, it wasn’t worth it at all.Was on my HOA board for a few years. I learned quickly why I will never be on on again for a myriad of reasons.
Some kids did that to a shop teacher when I was in high school. 🤣Take a 5 gallon pump sprayer filled with round up or atrazine and draw a giant penis in their yards. After about a week they will have a giant brown penis in their green grass. Unless they tear out the whole yard, even replanting that area will leave a discernable penis in the lawn for years.
Need to understand your definition of insanity. Are they strictly enforcing the rules you agree to abide by when purchasing the house or are they overstepping covenants and restrictions?Live in an HOA controlled community, for only 6 to 8 months longer while we build. We are moving 100% due to their insanity. So now I just want to screw with them in as many (legal) ways that I can.
Completely open to suggestions.
Already addressed a few different times in this thread. They are violating federal law, but I’m not incurring the cost of a lawsuit. Our behavior has not changed a bit, but their interpretations have. We are leaving, but I fully intend to be as disrespectful as I can on the way out, just as they have been to me and others.Need to understand your definition of insanity.

If it's the former - that's on you. By agreeing to buy the house you agreed to live until all terms and conditions. If they are strictly enforced and your snatch is raw, suck it up.
If it's the latter, you can sue and probably win.

Sorry about that - should have read thru the thread before replying. Moving sounds like your only real choice; which is sad.
Thing is, no matter what you do it's not going have an effect on the crazies. They thrive on power and attention. But if it makes you feel better, break every rule you can while forcing them to send letters. Then correct the issue right before it escalates (letting your grass go a bit, park on the street, put out obnoxious decorations, leave a kiddie pool in the driveway, etc).
Pay around $2k. Main amenity is a pool but a few other things including being a gated community. To me, will gladly pay that just for the pool so I do not have to pay a fortune to put one in and have to take care of it. 95% of the time have no issues. Always will be some inconsiderate entitled pricks that will live in one who think the rules do not apply to them.We have one. I’ve lived in some places where the neighbors have been bad, very bad. So I’m glad to have it. But it’s super low key compared to what I’m reading in this thread. Us poors can’t hang with y’all with Paddock money, I suppose. What do you Fortune 500 types pay annually for such amenities?

Was this possibly in Northern Ohio? I may know who did itSome kids did that to a shop teacher when I was in high school. 🤣
Welcome to ignore.Moves into a neighborhood with an HOA
Complains about having to live under the bylaws of the HOA
Perhaps try not moving to a place with an HOA next time.
What kind of “insanity” are you dealing with? They won’t let you have a yard sale? You can’t park your camper in the driveway for the neighborhood to look at? They sent you a cease-and-desist order for your Walmart above ground pool?
