So much freedom in the United States … can’t even grow your own garden.
pretty sure you can’t grow gardens in NZ too.
This is just completely out of my frame of reference. Why not? Who are opposed to this?
this might be of help
Crazy that this had to even be made into a law to override local meddling.
Does this override all HOA rules?
HOA aren’t governmental organizations, they are contractual organizations which makes it more complicated than something like a municipal government. They are private entities more akin to a nonprofit corporations than a government. It will really depend on the language of the law. If it actually guarantees the right to grow a garden then it should override HOA rules, if it just restricts lower levels of government from banning gardens then it is unlikely to affect HOA rules.
So far, all the sites I’ve found are talking about city ordinances against gardening, not HOA bylaws.
However, an HOA cannot legally enforce a rule that contradicts a state law. The worst HOAs will still try to enforce illegal rules. Which means you have to sue the HOA.
