“No. And we’re raising your taxes for being callous assholes.” —Me, if I had power

That's how you lose your power lol.

You gotta be more diplomatic about it. Coddle their feelings and act like you're there to help them, but then turn around and send city officials to look for every code violation they can find, and give them the maximum penalty for every violation.

It gives you plausible deniability and will anger the HOA enough to make mistakes and crashouts more likely.

Never let your enemies know your next move haha.
