<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Client, HOA, wants to amend CC & R’s. However, before spending the money, the Board wants to know are amendments enforceable? This is always a tricky question. Had one case where HOA wanted to ban Airbnb rentals.
However a home owner, within the association, said they bought the house as an investment and a source for retirement funds. They would not agree with any amendment that stopped them from leasing their home. I know there are cases on rentals, both short
term and long term that deal with this type of amendment. I also know amendments that deal with tree/bush height are causes for big bonfires with the board being burned in effigy. Are there cases out there that acknowledge that most CC & R’s have provision
for amendment, and everyone who buys into the area knows that and are subject to it. Where is the line drawn? What have been your experiences with amending CC & R’s and HOA Bylaws for that matter.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
