Actually in most cases the HOA is never the homeowners. The HOA is a bunch of elected people that get drooling power crazed looks on their faces and go off on a witch hunt. Once they are elected they can and do pretty much what they want until the next election. Unless it's some major issue that requires a members vote they usually get to do pretty much whatever they want in the meantime.

No reason to doubt the OP. > >The guy says there was no vote by the members. > Could be also true. No reason to doubt the OP. However, what he left out was the very important fact that the parking rules were voted on and enacted by an elected representative board of directors. Every set of by-laws has recall provisions. If a majority are unhappy with the new parking rules, simply vote out the board. Then elect a new board who will do away with the parking rules. That's how representative government works. An HOA is essentially the lowest and most basic form of government. > >Why would you doubt that a HOA would do something like > that without the say of the homeowners? > Larry, you are making it sound like the HOA and the homeowners are two different entities. The HOA is the homeowners, and the homeowners are the HOA. I'm cutting off your kool aid! ;-) Jim In a message dated 6/26/2008 5:16:52 A.M.

It was initiated over a year after he purchased the home and the owners were not given a voice in the matter. I wish him well.

If you read the whole thing the parking enforcement company was actually in breach of contract for overbilling. Yes, the home owner parked incorrectly by not showing his parking badge properly. However, I found great humor when he dollied the car into his garage and offered the boots back to the agency while the actual police were standing right there. With this guy, the fact is that he bought the home in that community because it was the only home he could buy in the entire region. Nice find BTW. The original thread on the forum that started this got locked. I've been jonesing for an update all week! [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Totally bogus home owner. No one HAS to live in a CC&R community. It is still a free country. People can choose where they want to live, or not. And real estate developers can choose how they decide to develop their land, or not, either with or without CC&Rs. It's all about choice. The fact is, people buy homes in CC&R communities simply because history has proven that homes in CC&R controlled neighborhoods appreciate at a faster rate. See attached.
