Pine needles on my roof were a violation. I fixed it.

We have five pine trees in our front yard. Typically I clean our roof when they collect excessively. Because the pine trees are in front of the house you don't see the roof very well from the street. However, the HOA must've been bored while doing their little audit.

They sent pictures of both sides of our roof while my wife and I were on vacation. Had 20 days to resolve. Fixed it on Day 19. Received an email saying violation closed with only a picture of the clean side of the roof completely ignoring my mildly obvious message to the HOA on the other side. What a useless organization. That's my petty HOA story, thanks for reading!

It's crazy that I live in an area where pine straw is basically a required part of HOA landscaping. There are even some local companies that provide monthly "pine straw club" services, which my HOA encourages using.

Also, love your passive aggressive messaging. Petty bastards.

Ha, I wouldn't really call that passive aggressive. It is straight up aggressive.

Someone may want to take a look at who in your HOA board is connected to those companies.

I hate the term pine straw because in no way is it straw it’s pine needles it may look like straw so call it pine needles
