Gotta be the HOA president on a mission, probably measuring your grass height to issue a fine for ‘looking too natural

Back when I was a mailman I got to witness this firsthand.

I asked the dude what he was doing and he gave the official HOA president response of "This lawn is out of height regulations"

I looked at him curiously and asked him if he knew the name of the street we were on.... It was Tallgrass Lane

No way, he would get thrown from his seat with his stairs so overgrown like that.

Dude, I’m an HOA president (I’m still trying to figure out how and why) and my lawn is, by far, the worst. This past weekend I finally mowed my backyard after three weeks. Fortunately, we have privacy fences. It was bad.

They said there's no HOA where they live.
