Should I move my pool equipment for the HOA?

What happens if you don't get approval from the HOA? Also, do you have a block wall around your yard? Almost all neighborhoods in AZ have them but I know many states that don't. Just wondering about your area because if you do, they would never even see the equipment. Do they actaully come and inspect it? We just sent a plan in and they o.k.ed it and won't ever actually see the finished project. Our equipment is on the side of our house that only has 5' between the house and fence and we still have room to walk past it. Good luck with finding a solution. I couldn't imagine having to move all that equipment with all of those pipes. That would have to be expensive.

Bummer. Hope it all works out for you. HOA's are a double edged sword. Sure, they do a lot of good things to help maintain the neighborhood. But, we actually ridded our neighborhood of our HOA. They were too stringent and most people did not want it anyway. So, everyone decided we don't need you anymore and got rid of it. HOAs have way too much power. Just my 2 cents.

How big is your neighborhood? Our HOA had fence restrictions and one of our neighbors went door to door and did a survey to see about allowing more fence choices (only vinyl and wood were acceptable prior to the survey). The survey was conducted, the results presented to the HOA and the restriction was changed to allow decorative aluminum also. Just a thought.

After our first home-owning experience in a PUD (Planned Unit Development) we swore we would NEVER be part of a HOA again if we could help it!
