I had a friend in Las Vegas that lived in one of the big planned communities. You have probably all heard the stories of HOA Nazis doing insane crap like measuring weeds in a yard....
One morning my friend looks out his window to see a man hunched over on his driveway. Curious, he goes out to see what was up. It was an HOA Nazi literally measuring the single blade of grass growing up between the expansion joint in his concrete driveway.
He was then lectured by said Nazi, issued a ‘ticket’ and told to keep better care of his property in the future or face eviction.
Following the threat to the Nazi’s life, he received a $50 fine in the mail along with a ‘friendly’ suggestion that he consider relocating to another residence more in line with his ‘beliefs’.
I have my own horror stories with the only HOA I ever lived in. But that one takes the cake.
Wow.. People like that board member are on a power trip.. Do they not have anything better to do other than bully others? They look for trouble!
All neighborhoods have their drama.. and as peaceful as mine is.. I’d move to a farm with 50 acres in a heartbeat! I love people but most of them tick me off :)
HA...I can top that story....near us is a Golf Course and the homes around it are part of a HOA....well...one guy got a note in the mail telling him he was NOT to walk to the mailbox in his bathrobe again....soooo...the next time he walked....in the nude! True story.
