I don’t mind at all obeying rules & following the laws.
That’s sort of section of the social contract that all of us agree to when we’re section of a society.
And there are all manner of rules & regulations outside of formalized state & federal laws. I just ran afoul of some rather inane HOA regulations pertaining to the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C equipment at my home. The rule is that residential Heating, Ventilation, & A/C cannot be seen from the street. First, this seems savor such a random rule. I mean are all of us all trying to pretend that all of us don’t have heating & cooling in our homes? And since when did the sight of an Heating, Ventilation, & A/C lodgeet alongside a beach apartment create such turmoil that it has to be hidden? Clearly, I was missing something with all this hide the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C business. Actually, I was completely unaware of any sort of regulations when it came to my really own Heating, Ventilation, & A/C equipment. So when I split the privacy hedge a bit short on that side of the house, it came with unforeseen repercussions for sure. It wasn’t 24 hours later before I had a nasty little not from the HOA taped to the front door. I was told to build a fence to keep the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C from view or replace the hedge. What sort of logic went into this transport is beyond me. I mean, the hedge will grow back. And you have to be at the perfect angle just to see the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C lodgeet from the street anyway. I’m currently ignoring the threats from the HOA over this Heating, Ventilation, & A/C madness & just letting the hedge continue to grow & end all this idiocy.
