If the city grants them access to use the city easement the HOA has no authority to stop them. I've had to tell a HOA board member that he can politely piss up a rope when he said he did not give me permission to run a cable in his yard (front yard easement, ped was on his side of the property line by 3 feet and I was installing his neighbor's service). Explained to him that the area the electric, gas, water, phone and us ran through was city easement area and he can't stop any work done by a company that has equipment in that area. He even called his lawyer while I was there working. Guess he didn't like what he heard because he stormed off. Sorry you're having so much issues. But this is a prime example of why I will not live in an HOA ever. I had to fight with one when we lived with my FIL in a run down condo complex in the bad side of Vegas that charged one of the city's highest HOA fee ($145 a month). Never again.</blockquote>
