You’d be interested in an HOA rule under the Torrey Hills Master Association.
Paraphrased:
“No owner shall convert his/her garage into a place of storage and vehicles shall not be parked on the drive unless there are more vehicles than can be accomodated inside the garage.”
Basically, this means if you unless you have 3+ cars or drive a Hummer H1, technically you’re suppose to garage all your cars before you start parking on the driveway…Fortunately, this rule is never enforced. But it does make a convenient excuse for getting a third or fourth car 🙂
There are no rules against car washing.

Does this apply to all of Torrey Hills? If that’s the case, I don’t think I can ever live there. I’m kind of a pack rat, so I like to keep things in my garage, just in case I need it in the future. I guess you can’t be a pack rat and live in these new communities huh? What if you’re in the process of remodeling and you’re using your garage as a place to store all of your materials?[/quote]
Well different parts of “Torrey Hills” are under different HOA’s. Torrey Hills MA is actually the lesser of the HOA nazi’s. They have a bunch of rules, but unless you have a pesky neighbor that complains, they really don’t enforce that much. So plenty of neighbors are a pack rat and park both of their cars outside. Fortunately, there aren’t a lot of retired old seniors here who just report people…. IF you started working on your car with the garage door open, you might get a few evil eyes but no one is going to say anything. Putting a clunker on the driveway on blocks would be a no-no though. (I think it’s a san diego law anyway that you can’t do that)
Parts that border the Carmel Country Highland (I know, I get a kick out of the name too…what’s next Carmel Valley Plateau?) are under a different HOA…I heard those HOA’s are HOA nazi’s. I have friends that live in Derby Hills/Saratoga area and they routinely get letters from the HOA…Anything from leaving your trash cans out too long for 1 extra day…To your contractors hanging too large of an advertising sign outside while he’s remodeling.
