We live in a small 213 Home Community with a HOA and a new 2021 Management Company who Inspects Properties for Compliance with the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs). The 1st Property Inspection was done in May 2021 and we received a violation email and letter concerning 2 shrubs on the East side of our Property that had brown leaves they said were dead and we needed to remove them. We sent photos showing there weren't dead and agreed to trim and prune and the violation was deleted. June 2021 the 2nd Property Inspection, again the East side of our Property, we received an email and letter about 2 tree stumps they said needed to be removed, nothing in our CC&Rs states anything about tree stumps. One of the tree stumps 21+ years old and the other 7+ years old, which we informed the Management Compliance person of all of this. She stated in an email that we were right and nothing was in our CC&Rs about removing tree stumps, we thought it was over and done. Next Inspection July 2021, 2 emails and letters, East side of our Property, again one was about the 2 tree stumps and the other was about re-sodding around 2 trees that the shading caused the grass to die. I checked with 3 Homeowners within a 1/2 a block of our Home who also had dead grass areas near trees and none of them received a violation notice. We have filed a BBB Complaint against the Management Co. about the tree stumps considering our HOA never took any previous action about these tree stumps in 7+ and 21+ years, The Management Co. Compliance person admitted in an email there nothing in our CC&Rs and we questioned why all these issues, same side of our Property weren't addressed on the 1st Inspection, have no response to our BBB Complaint. We also sent a USPS Certified Letter about all of this, considering the re-sod and no other Homeowner receiving such a violation notice, appears now to be targeting, singling out and may be an act of discrimination, which was stated in the Certified, no response yet. Know I am a 100% VA Service Connected Disabled Veteran as well, which they are aware of.
