[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] Success with HOAs

[Don (KI4D)]

Don't forget to start with a deep read of your HOA governing documents
(CC&Rs (Covenants, conditions and restrictions) and regulations or board
resolutions)).  If the governing documents do not specifically restrict
antennas, that would be good news.  If the documents do restrict antennas,
you will need a waiver from the HOA board based on some type of
justification.  Feel free to send me a note for further details, if
interested; as an HOA Board member and ham I have some background with these
issues.

Dear Mark:

      There are two ways to probe your HOA (Now known as POA, i.e. Property
Owners Association).  The first is the read the meetings in your resale
package to see how the board has reacted to past requests.

      The second is to search for other hams in your ZIP code and ascertain
whether or not they also resident in your HOA/POA.  if they have made any
requests, then asked them of the outcome.

I'm preparing to submit a request to my HOA in Fairfax County (not within
City of Fairfax) to erect a 43' vertical in my backyard that can be raised
when in use and lowered alongside the house and mostly hidden when not in
use. I know all communities and HOAs are different, but I was just wondering
if anyone would be willing to share their experience.

Trying to see if there is a general feeling for acceptance or lack of
acceptance (or other potential land mines) for hams with back yard vertical
antennas in Fairfax County.

Mark WU6R
