20%? That sounds really, really high? I can't believe HOA establish all these rules but they aren't able to enforce them, even collecting the dues.

Can't they just send goons (aka staffs) to the homes and ask for mula, after sending them a few friendly reminders? I don't enjoy carrying the burdens of others.

I would think that HOA can just contact Qwest to disconnect the service of certain homes, and have charge fees to reconnect them.

I wonder how many of these are foreclosed homes, esp. those owned by investors.
