We just had the boards replaced. Our neighbors told us the HOA jumped all over them when they redid their deck a few years ago. They may have changed the style/footprint though.

I’m guessing there was a building license involved in their case. How else the HOA would have known about it I don’t know.

Our HOA is crazy about mailboxes. 🙄
