Why subject you and those around you to such a torture when you can have native plants and landscape that barely requires any maintenance.

HOA compliance

Friendly reminder that HOAs require their council members to be elected. You can run for HOA president and potentially change many of these policies

A lot of HOAs resist change by requiring an absurd supermajority of votes to actually change anything, sometimes unanimous. Granted, if you can manage to get everyone together to amend just that one part of the charter, the rest of the change comes much easier
