Seriously?! Atasca Woods HOA just sent constables to my house! I had received a letter from the HOA months ago about a basketball goal that is between mine & the neighbors houses that was there when I moved into the house 2 yrs ago. All the kids on our street use it and none of the homeowners care it's there ( it's not an eyesore and is a nice one) The HOA had sent me a letter saying I have to remove it. At the time my thought was... It's not mine, I didn't put it there, and technically not even in my property and I left it alone. Today police showed up at my house and verbally apologized but said I have to move it. I first am appalled that they would send police over that. The officers said just move it to your drive way area and technicality there's nothing they can do anymore. Don't get me wrong - Im not saying this cause I don't believe in the purpose of HOAs to monitor for real eyesores but sending constables out for that?!? And wasting resources over something that no one has a real issue with?! I asked them if they next are going to knock on the door of the "non" mowed home w grass and weeds that is a true eyesore around the corner?!

If they are playing ball in the street then the HOA is probably considering it as a safety hazard and covering their butts for any future liability issues. We had neighborhood teenagers that played ball in the street; they would not stop playing and move for cars until they were good and ready. Ugh.

If that were the case going on here the parents on the street would complain. This BB goal is as much my 3 surrounding neighbors as it is "mine".

The goal is sitting on the concrete over the drain ... On the curb area. It's between mine & neighbors house where there's a path between homes to the bayou behind our house.

So is this community property? We had one like that in Pinehurst. Not sure if it is still there, but someone concreted it into the median of a cul de sac. I think the county or HOA should remove them.

Our street is a cul- de- sac loop too so it's not like it's on a main road in and out where kids using it are in traffics way. My point is also that the police said move it to your drive way and they can't say anything.. Well I know I'd get another letter if I had it in my drive too and I really don't want 10 kids ALL in my driveway where my car is parked every day. I'm irritated about it and feel if your going to send cops over this you better send them to every damn house over real eyesore issues!!

Yuck that really stinks. It makes me wonder if the cons don't outweigh the pros of HOA ran communities.

There 's the problem with HOA's always some A&&H*** carrying it to the extreme.
Totally wrong to get the constables involved in this. Sounds like it is time to clean house.

Well apparently they have somehow deemed this goal as mine, which again isn't. I could move it across the street but that is just putting this crap on my neighbors. I don't want to remove it cause all the kids use it, and kind of feel as if they want it gone they should pay someone to remove it cause of where it is. If It was mine I would take responsibility for it.

@Tuckersmom Might want to call the management company and tell them to have the county or someone remove the goal. The HOA receives complaints from people that have to drive down that street... even service providers like UPS, who have accidentally hit these goals hanging out in the right of way. The HOA is just doing their job trying to keep the peace. (No I am not on the HOA Board!)... just been there in the past and had to deal with this stuff. It is not an easy job and people need to listen to all sides of the story! We live in a community and have to get along!

If it's the one I'm thinking about it's no where near the road.
