In Phoenix its illegal to park a car on your lawn, and they will fine you for grass over 6 inches. When my street light burned out I called the number listed in the phonebook and a few days later it was fixed. No HOA needed.

Not all HOAs are bad - I'm on my local board and part of my job is breaking boards over the Nazi (well, actually he's Bavarian, but close enough), that wants to make us do things as discussed above. Ain't gonna happen here.charzx11 said:We have no HOA. They tried to start one and it boiled down to transplanted retired northerners who were for and real southerners who were against.

houselog442 said:the reason this country aint as free anymore is because of people who want things for free and make someone else pay for it. To do this, they vote for communist pinkos who promise them all this stuff, but they have to break the law to do it. Soon, as they keep brreaking more laws to give more usefull idiots the freebies they want, they start passing other laws that are draconian because they destroyed the barriers that were in place when they were giving people freebies. Now they want to give freebies to illegal aliens and terrorists, and use eminant domain to take away private property to give it to businesses who pay more taxes. Its the people who are screwing the constitution because they have become usefull idiots to the communist manifesto!
