Some folks not financially privileged to hire a greedy lawyer.

In this case any lawyer that takes the case is greedy, Cause he ain't gonna win... The HOA Has to have rules.. Without rules you would be having too much fun.....

 

[bikerbillone]

Yes, of course. If this guy can't convice the HOA board to make an exception, then it's a dead issue. The HOA is all powerful. A thought, just cover it and see what happens. The worst that can happen, you get a nasty letter and may get their attention that they have made a stupid rule.

Lawyer ? Don’t need no stinking lawyer, just combat them one by one :argue:

Don't think that would work.

Devils advocat alert 2

You live in a Condo/Townhouse....A new owner moves in next to you, And they decide to paint their side pink, Or maybe they believe loud pipes save lives, And start saving lives on their driveway right next to your bedroom window at 5am while the bike is warming up......

Bet you put the HOA's phone number on your speed dial....:cxtv:

Does your HOA have the right to levy fines or the right to tow? Without that they have no teeth and the heck with whether they don't want covers or not.

Your right Frank... The unanswered question is when the HOA Makes/pasts a rule there is a reason...When we [My Club] Makes a rule, And in our case our rules are not rules per -say but suggestions and its enforced by peer pressure and at times strong will officers of the club i'm the President and we meet 4 times a year at the club, We have 30 members all are owners....But i digress....

What is the reason for covers in particular , When the HOA Made the rule there had to a discussion among the board members .....And it may turn out to be a valid reason that escapes us after 50 posts..:Shrug:

Or up the stairs!

 

[1dn5up]

If being a seasonal complex, and as Bob mentioned about using ugly tarps rather than form fitting covers of neutral colors, then why not. I will repeat myself; try to attend a board meeting and bring your ammo. :Shrug: The more protesters the better.

Need some advice and informative ammunition. I live in a condo with no garages, therefore the 2016 Harley Tri Glide must stay outside in the parking lot exposed to the elements. We keep it covered every night with either a half-cover when the weather is nice, or a full-cover during bad weather or when we're gone for several days. Last week, my Home Owner's Association board passed a new rule to disallow covers on all vehicles, for a variety of reasons, primarily for snowbird owned cars with covers that are parked and covered for months at a time. However, the rule that was passed was a very broad ALL vehicles. So now, my property manager has suggested I submit a letter next week stating all the legitimate reasons why motorcycles should be covered. Living in swampy Florida with a lot of wildlife and occasional storms, along with water sprinklers and theft prevention issues, some of the reasons we will list are fairly obvious. What I'm hoping to get from someone here are explanations or documentation of long-term damage caused by leaving a motorcycle uncovered for extended periods of time. Any help anyone can add to my list would be greatly appreciated.

So,,,??? What was the outcome of this? Or maybe I missed it?

 

[MikeyTX]

we haven't heard

 

[1dn5up]

So what’s the outcome ? Or did ya descide to move out ?

Petty rules like this is one reason why I sold my place in The Villages. We had a neighbor that placed a small, 9 inch angel in their yard. Some nosy neighbor complained and the owner had to remove the angel. Most rules in Communities such as TV have are good, but some are ridiculous and too many people just look for things to bitch about. The response most often heard in The Villages was, " well, if you don't like it, just move".

As Rousseau said in 1756, "There Is No Substitute For Reason"

 

[RdKnB]

Shoot, no response as to what happened. I would have written a letter asking for an exception. Then done to a meeting and tried to have the rule re written. Something along the lines of, no vehicles are allowed to be longer then "blank" amount of time. Let us know how it turned out

Yup. One hit wonder. :laugh:

Might be the deodorant failure :Shrug:
