Home Owners Association Conflicts

I live in a PUD.  That is short for Planned Unit Development.  It’s just like a Condo development except we have separate houses and own the land and the building.  Just like a Condo we have a Home Owners Association which takes care of the landscaping, snow removal, etc.  It’s a great life style.
