We the undersigned Pinnacle Subdivision homeowners are aware of the civil lawsuit filed against a homeowner by the Pinnacle HOA over the installation of his basketball hoop and its colored background. The case is in court now.

We petition the HOA to dismiss the lawsuit against our neighbor and have it resolved through mediation. We request the fines ($25/day for >90 days) be dismissed and that each party be responsible for its costs. The homeowner has been willing from the very beginning to replace the background color to comply with HOA covenants, but the HOA chose to file suit. The resident is now potentially liable for >$8,000 in fees and court costs.

Our HOA board members are neighbors and we ask them to act as such. We petition the HOA to stop filing lawsuits for trivial matters such as this and resolve the issue with neighborly mediation.

I think the HOA should concentrate on more important issues such as a neighbors garage door that has been smashed in for 10 years instead of a basketball goal.

Seems like a trivial lawsuit, that could be handled another way. Our HOA dues could be used for many other things besides useless lawsuits.

I have lived here for 16 years. Surely other means could have been utilized for problems with a basketball goal???? Sounds almost like a bully with deep pockets vs. a lone homeowner and I am a real sticker for keeping up the neighborhood.

It is very disappointing that such matters are taken to court. It reflects on the neighbourhood and how HOA has been creating an hostile relationship with neighbours. If these things continue, will have to do some serious thinking about living in this neighbourhood.

I did ask board members if they attempted to mediate and they said yes. Disappointed they went to mediation demanding additional funds. Law 101 class should have taught attorney what mediation is about.

I agree. This is such a simple matter to resolve through just talks and mutual understanding. I don't see any reason for any legal action here, unless one is trying to find excuses to raise money
