The city left a warning citation for my overgrown lawn a few months ago but, I really didnt do much. A tree fell down because of a storm so maybe they think that all that left over branches was me cleaning up? if you're not careful you won't get invited to the holiday party and without sucking up to them you'll never have a shot at getting on city council.

Yorkshire Pudding posted:What sort of authority do HOA's have? In college I remember getting an angry call from my landlord because he said our area HOA association called him bitching about the trash in our back yard. It was a flat tire my roomate had replaced two days before and a taco bell Big Box on top of it. The "authority" that a HOA can have ranges from yard upkeep to the colour of blinds you have in your windows. Some of the things that I have heard friends talk about being dictated by their HOA's. -garbage times (when you can put garbage on the curb) -grass length, times to cut, type of grass -no hanging laundry -no wind-chimes, bird-feeders, anything decorative in yard (flamingos, gnomes, etc) -colour of the shingles on your home -vinyl siding colour -colour of the blinds in your home -colour of the stain you use on your privacy fence -if kiddie pools are allowed in your back yard -children's playground equipment in your back yard -types of decorative shrubs in your yard -parking rules (on curb, in driveway, some even dictate your vehicle must be inside at night [to deter thieves coming to the neighbourhood]) -how often you can/can't water your lawn -outdoor cooking on the BBQ -music volume/party days and times -aftermarket mufflers on vehicles (the ones that make Civics 10x as loud) -show shovelling responsibilities (where you can/have to shovel, where the snow goes) HOA's are how old people and stay at home moms feel like their lives matter by telling others what to do. Sometimes the HOA is decent and just makes sure nobody is letting their yard go wild, and other times they fine households thousands of dollars because their 6 year old hung up a pinecone birdfeeder he made in school.

I don't have an answer though You sign a contract when you move in saying you will abide by the HOA. They can't have you arrested or anything but they can do whatever anyone else can do if you break a contract, they can sue you for fees/damages/etc. TheLightPurges fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Nov 1, 2016 |

But where does the authority come from? Like if I buy a house from some person, how can a group of people nearby dictate those things? Do they own the land or something?

Basically if they litigate and you don't comply then you'll get hit with contempt of court charges and send your rear end to the clink for 30 days (see: "suck my dick you fuckman").

Someone must of died in my HOA since I stopped getting letters about my lawn. What makes me mad is there is a school bus stop next to my house. Kids leaving their garbage and bookbags on my lawn. I have some kid's bookbag in my garage, with his homework and text books. Hasn't asked for it back yet .

Well, ok, they've got you if you sign a contract, right? But then, the question becomes: do you have to join an HOA if you buy a house in an HOA neighborhood?

It's attached to the deed of the house. Never saw an HOA rulebook with rules about traps though, you're in the clear.

They don't ask for their stuff back if you kill them.

When you buy or sell the house, part of the HOA contract is that the new person join the HOA. Basically they're like vampires once you let them in they own you.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLF_and_PAVN_battle_tactics "Do not be embarrassed by your failures" -Richard Branson quote:NLF and PAVN battle tactics comprised a flexible mix of guerrilla and conventional warfare battle tactics used by the Main Force of the People's Liberation Armed Forces (known as the National Liberation Front or Viet Cong in the West) and the NVA (People's Army-Vietnam) to defeat their American and South Vietnamese (GVN/ARVN) opponents during the Vietnam War.

Putting beartraps on your lawn will allow you to deal with those perky children easily. If you don't want to kill them, just use the toothless ones and it will only seriously injure their legs.

Just set your entire lawn on fire. That will end all the problems.
