Doesn't the Americans with Disabilities Act come into play here? Reasonable accommodations, and all that. Scooping a few dog turds for a blind couple doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Oh how I hate gated communities. My Mom lived in one that required residents to park in their garages, not on their driveways.

Association attorney Margaret Wangler said the association never told the couple not to use the streets. "The association's concern and the reason for getting in touch with the Bartletts was that they don't clean it up all the way and that's a health and safety concern to the board."
Uhh, Margaret, are you aware these folks are blind?

Health and safety concern my butt. We americans have become so dang neurotic. It's dog poo. A pretty normal find in the back yard where I grew up. Deal with it.
Personally, I can't imagine trying to find and pick up dog poo blindfolded, and I doubt these folks wh are disturbed at the risk associated with it's mere presence in the street would go feeling around for it blind either.
Hmmm.... well. So there it is.
Ping!

There are businesses that come to your home to clean up after your dog.

Check this out! Dog poo in the street is a major tragedy, yet the daily killing of unborn babies through abortion isn't horrific and horrendous?
Priorities, priorities!

This is a fine example of the insanity of zero tolerance.
If there were any people of decency in this neighborhood they would help out. I would help a stranger in this situation. Blind man trying to find dog poop, what's he going to do, pat the entire street to find it when the dog has just passed gas?

Sounds like the type of people who would try to cite a mugging victim with loitering and littering if he lays around bleeding too long.

Hey, I have a suggestion for these (pardon the pun) Anal Retentive homeowner's association jerks.
How about doing a little community service, and take turns helping the blind owner clean up after his dog, instead of taking him to court?
Decent people help their neighbors.

Homeowners associations are evil.
