HOA refuses to approve new design plans, architects move forward anyway, sparking neighborhood feud: 'For 2+ weeks we didn't hear anything'

The funny thing about HOA board members is that they love to stir up trouble until they actually have to deal with the consequences of their own actions. Sure, it gives these entitled individuals some kind of sadistic satisfaction to ruin the days, months, and years of other residents in the neighborhood by bringing to light niche rules and regulations from the HOA handbook. 

That being said, enforcement of said policies does require some follow-through on their part, and as soon as the HOA has to be held accountable for something, their false sense of authority begins to show. Of course, these folks have no problem holding everyone else accountable, but here's the thing about rules and regulations: If you don't have the energy to enforce them, shouldn't you not be the ones in charge?

Keep scrolling below for this tale from the perspective of the architects of a newly designed home in an HOA neighborhood and the chaos that ensued prior to construction.
