Yeah, there are several of us who push the issue with gardening. Lots of people grow tomatoes in patio planters. Another has a raised bed on the back side of her house. You could only see that with a drone, and if they ever start doing that for infractions, then I think there will be a huge push back. We had to get rid of one stickler, because she was single-handedly making people in the neighborhood miserable. When her term was up for renewal, she got booted out.
I have heard of HOA’s that got the right people on the board and then somehow passed a resolution that there could be no board any more.
I’d have to talk to my son about it because he’s the one who told me.
