[quote=PKMAN]My HOA (Riverwalk of Santee) does not allow:

– Car washing, even for single detached residences with own driveway
– Parking on private streets inside the community
– Supposedly no parking on own-driveway as well but nobody is following this rule

There are probably more restrictions that I’ve yet to looked into. But the HOA fee is only $118/mo and no MR. So I think it’s a good trade-off, at least so far.[/quote]

Why is car washing considered low-class?

Because only poor people would need to wash it themselves instead of paying someone to wash it for them? But man:

If they start enforcing that, it would suck for people who either have a lot of stuff in the garage or people who have kids who are of driving age.

As my HOA explains:

No car-washing is because the water, along with chemicals from the soap detergent would simply drip to the storm drain and eventually get to our ocean, untreated. This I somewhat understand and support.

No parking on driveway if the length of the driveway is less than that of the car. HOA does not want the car to extend out to the sidewalk. But then again, most driveways in the community are less than 15 feet, OK for small cars, barely adequate for mid-size and simply aren’t sufficient for full-size and pickups. And yes, most families have garage full of stuffs and thus could only park one car in it, or none at all. This is one rule that most residences will not support and thus everybody’s ignoring it so far.

In my healthier days. I wouldn’t let anyone else wash my car. Dark paint plus poor washer that does the wax-on wax-off thing = lots of swirl marks.

Anyway,

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.
