Here is pic from this afternoon as I was driving by. If you look closely, you can see orange clay Mediterranean tiles in the dead center. 3 really nice cars parked under those trees in the front yard on the left.

Damn that's a beautiful lawn. I mean exactly how I'd love my property to look! This dude gets it!

Which is totally fine. But you dont move into a deed restricted/HOA governed community.

A few years ago we drove past a neighborhood that we've been by 1000 times. Our son asked "What does deed resticted neighborhood mean?" Me being the great verbose mother that I am, I went into the whole meaning of their neighborhood with HOA etc that we don't have in our neighborhood.

When I finally finished he said, "Ok, but what does RESTICTED mean?"

They have at least three of these large signs in the neighborhood.

:bwahaha:

Wow.

There’s a Chinese place in the Haile Publix shopping center in Gainesville with a neon sign that reads “NY Styel”. :lol:

Brad, you guys have 3 options:

1) Do nothing further, let it go. At least you got some fine money out of him.

2) Start the letter and fine process again, and let it pile up. Eventually you'll have to sue him again.

3) Put out a proposal to all residents to amend the documents to allow the HOA to "self help" in cases like this. The HOA attorney will have to draw everything up. A members meeting will then need to be called and votes taken via proxy. Assuming it passes (the amount of the majority you need will be outlined in your current documents), you will then have the authority to (after written warnings) send a full crew in there to clean everything up, then put the bill on his account. The workers risk being shot, but I think it's the only way to actually fix the problem.

Well, sorta. #3 is accurate. Dont forget 48 hours in jail for #1 :lol:

However, we still won the original lawsuit. Therefore, we dont have to go through the process again as it was never completed. The judge will call him back (a repeat of the 2nd hearing) and ask why he hasnt done any of it.

He has finally lawyered up. He has checked off 2 boxes that are black and white: pressure wash the driveway and have the roof cleaned. It was an orange tile roof that was blacker than the road. The covenant is kinda vague on the landscaping, something along the lines of "neat, tidy, and routinely trimmed". He claims he meets that. So it'll be fun to see what he says at the next hearing.

Generally speaking, the interpretation of the covenants lies at the feet of the Board. If they say his landscaping doesn't meet the covenants, then it doesn't.
