Thanks for the info, that will be very helpful. I will have a list of those
points in hand tonight.

I do not have the CCR's in front of me here, but reading them last night it said
that they expired in 30 years, which I think would be around 2010, the division
being built 1980-84. However, there was a clause about automatic 10-year
renewals after expiration or something to that effect that I cannot recall the
exact wording of right now.
We got a letter a year or two ago from the (long-gone) developer saying that the
board, which was just three employees of the developer, was being dissolved.
Not sure if it said the *corporation* was dissolved, I need to rustle up the
letter if I still have it.
Half the people that I talked to were shocked to find out that an HOA ever
existed. I only knew because I was so persistent to my realtor prior to bidding
that the HOA had to be dead or I wasn't interested. That was the best situation
I could find, as I am in the San Diego area and virtually everywhere here has an
HOA, most of them aggressive powertrips run by stay-at-home mommies and retired
cranks.
Weirdly, I got a meeting notice but most of my neighbors didn't. I called the
guy who is organizing the meeting and found out that what he and another person
did was send notices only to people next door to what he considered "problem"
houses. Apparently my neighbor having several cars he is restoring in his
driveway and side-drive qualified as "problem". Though none are on blocks and
only one is ever on the street and it runs. I do not really care, it doesn't
bother me and he doesn't rev motors at 2 AM or anything.
You can be damn sure that if I do not kill this thing tonight, every house in the
neighborhood will have an anti-HOA flyer by next weekend. I might ask here for
help writing it since from reading past threads here last night you guys know
this stuff inside and out. Or heck, just your list of points would probably be
enough.
