I live in the bay area of california and recently painted my home. the color scheme was approved by my homeowner's assn. (rose-beige, white trim, blue gutters) The painter told me the base would be "too bright/too pink" so we went with a lighter version of the same color. It's still too bright/too pink but good enough for me. The assn. contacted me and said they don't like the color and that it isn't exactly what they approved so it must be repainted at my expense. I have 60 days from 12/17/01 to do it. We met for a hearing last night - they admitted they do not want me to paint it what they approved either, because it will definitely be too bright/too pink. They want me to pick new colors. And, they want me to do test strips on the backside of my home - which they will then come to inspect and possibly approve. Again - the repainting is all at my expense. At this point they refuse to allow me 60 days from last night's hearing. It has been raining for several weeks here - as we all know you don't paint in this weather - but they insist. Do I have any recourse? I am a single mom and am trying to be cooperative (would even split the cost) but feel they are taking advantage of me.
