=)Sue K. hoa stories are legendary. i manage a property with a nazi hoa about the trees and landscaping. they literally waited around the parking lot and then chased me down when they saw me arrive to tell me to cut some branches....and proceeded to stalk me another time when i was selling a house in their community to get the owner to move a bag of mulch...but since i've managed the discussed property above, i haven't heard a peep from this one...., but i'll make calls tomorrow
