An Architectural or Community Aesthetics Committee of an HOA has total and final control over members making changes to the appearance of their properties. There is an application and approval process for requested changes to member's property in the HOA documents, to which each member agrees to adhere when they become members. Colonel Barfoot relinquished his right to pick and choose which rules he would obey when he signed that sales contract. HOA officers are bound by the corporate laws of the state in which the HOA is incorporated. They cannot willy-nilly violate the bylaws and rules without breaking state law. When an HOA member violates the process to which they are contractually bound, the HOA officers are bound by law to pursue the violator and correct the violation, or violate state law themselves. Wrapping the issue in the flag, patriotism, heroism, medals, and glory does not change one bit in my mind and experience that the man should honor his contract with his neighbors, take down his offending pole, and display his flag within the rules of where he chose to live. Generating a firestorm of hate toward the neighborhood, the HOA officers, or anyone who disagrees with this mobbing action is pathological and standard boilerplate for community organizers who extort communities.twolaneflashhttp://comcast.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6340335897594941637.post-35566459237780420822009-12-06T05:39:21.168+00:002009-12-06T05:39:21.168+00:00Rohobo, I will meet you on the field of honor anyd...Rohobo, I will meet you on the field of honor anyday, loudmouth. I'm a veteran, with a son in Special Ops. KMA. I have fought this same HOA battle in court at the expense of over $150,000 and lost. The contract will prevail in court. You act like an bunch of ACORN thugs wanting special privileges. Go ahead, just bully the neighborhood into submitting to your wishes, even though you don't live there or pay dues.

The man made a contract, just like he did when he won all those medals for bravery and heroism. He honored his contract then. He should do so now. He contracted with a group of people to establish a common set of rules for maintainence of property values and aesthetics. In addition to the HOA bylaws and rules, the Architectural Committee in our HOA reviews all applications for any type of contruction on members properties. The neighbors don't have problems with flags; it's the flagpole. My flag is on my covered porch, lights on it 24/7, with a Blue Star flag on the front door. Patriotism, being a good neighbor, and keeping your bonded word should not be contradictory or cause for hostility.
