People who actually want to be in charge of things almost never should be allowed anywhere near the reins of power.

HOA's should be abolished. Anti-American. Unacceptable.

So disgusting. Taking down the mature trees that provide shade and refuge for wildlife. Places for birds to perch and nest and most of all giving off oxygen for all mammals to breathe.

Another reason why I will never buy a property subject to a HOA.

Seems to me that a lot of HOA's attract a certain kind of person...a severe illogical person who takes a sick pleasure in fining people, punishing them, and severely limiting them. It is so important to go to those meetings and elect logical leaders.

My brother lives in an HOA. They had a banana tree that was planted 30 years ago. Always bananas that ripened just as the last bunch was done. Organic. No care. just a gift from God. Shared with all of the neighbors. HOA cut it down while he was away. Sick individuals

@marietweetss Every time I look at a property for sale, one of the first things I look at is if there’s an HOA. If there is, I don’t even look further.

HOAs at it again. Someone spends 20 years growing a black sapote and 10 years on an avocado… then the board just rolls up with chainsaws because the trees were in a “common” spot. This is exactly why so many people can’t stand HOAs.

Abolish HOAs. If everyone stopped paying their fees and pushed back against them together as one force, they could get rid of them all. It would take a coordinated concerted effort, but I’ll bet it could be done.

Are all HOA's horrible communist dictatorships? It sure seems that way.

Nobody likes HOAs because HOAs invented Karens and buttinskies and petty tyrants. Well, maybe not invented, but perfected and honed to a high sheen.

Honest question from someone who never lived in an HOA neighbourhood: if people hate them, why do they sign up for this thing? Isn’t it voluntary?

1 tree was 20 yrs old & the other was 10. I'd say they were approved/accepted long ago and these property owners my have a case against the HOA. Personally, I'd live by a neon orange house and the purple & green house before I'd put up with an HOA.

My fear of a long prison term is why I will never live in a community with an HOA

I don't think these people understand. An avocado tree is a tropical tree. I have to bring mine inside during the winter here in south Carolina. I'd be fighting mad if they chainsawed my 10 year old avocado tree, especially after all I went through to get it that big

@Supp_Community Thneedville they want you to have fake trees.

Trees can be a liability. If the tree has shallow roots it can fall on a building. That's why they removed the trees. Blame the insurance company, not the HOA

People who live in HOAs are those who are extremely shallow and narcissistic control freaks, caring only about their subjective optics. I have no sympathy for anyone who has chosen to live in an HOA and then one day finds themselves targeted by said HOA. One's control over how any property looks begins and ends within the parameters of only their property lines. All other land outside of said property lines is not their business.

This is a townhouse and you never have control of that it is a shared space.

Be really careful gathering seed for use disposable gloves, but go gather you some seed from pigweed plants, scatter it all around their house. And lawn, 2 can play this game

I lived in an HOA of 50 homes in a very rural area of Tennessee. We formed a voluntary fire department, established a neighborhood watch, applied for federal grants for fire safety, held regular meetings with food and drink. One of the few that worked well.

I foresee a lot more of this as insurance companies increasingly dictate landscaping. Trees = increased risk of claims (fire, falling down, kids falling out of them etc). California has written stripping property barren near homes with their "zone zero" stuff.

So why do people buy in an HOA? I never have and I never will.

No HOA. It is fantastic. Seriously love Bob’s Big Boy welcoming me home. Next week, it could be Godzilla. One could only dream.

There's something in most British villages older than the church. Older than the English language. You've walked past it a thousand times. And nobody told you what it was. 🌳 The yew tree. Some are 2,000 years old. Some are closer to 5,000. The Fortingall Yew in Scotland. One of the oldest living things in Europe. They were sacred before Christianity arrived. When the new religion came, they didn't cut the trees down. They built the churches next to them. The church came to the tree. Not the other way around. Some are hollow. The heartwood rots away. But the tree keeps growing from the outside. A tree can be hollow for centuries and still be alive. Yew wood made the English longbow. Agincourt. Crécy. The weapon that changed European warfare. The wood came from churchyards. Yew is poisonous. Every part of it. Livestock can't go near it. That's why they survived in churchyards when they were cut down everywhere else. The wall saved them. The Ankerwycke Yew. Near Runnymede. Two and a half thousand years old. Magna Carta may have been sealed beneath it. The tree was already a thousand years old when that happened. You can touch them. They're not behind glass. They're in your village. Walk up to one on Sunday morning. Put your hand on the bark. That tree was alive before Julius Caesar crossed the Channel. And it's still growing. Still standing in the same churchyard. Still alive. Still yours. Sources and more available at Be part of us. Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧
