Not all HOA's are the same

HOA's manage different types of property. Some are single family homes, some are townhouses, some are condominiums. Legislation should not broadly legislate all HOA's but should specify which entities to which they apply and should consider the ownership. For example, regulations that say HOA's can't prevent xeriscaping or solar shouldn't apply to condos where the unit owner does not own any of the land individually nor the roofs on which the solar would be installed.
