A better report, even if it is from the Washington Post. The HOA imposed fines, which a court said they had no right to do under the CC&Rs. In another matter, the courts found the rejection of the improvements were made in an arbitrary manner at a secret meeting.

Using arbitrary standards is one of the issues I threatened to sue our HOA over, since they regularly were threatening to fine homeowners for stuff not found anywhere in writing.
