Every municipality I've lived in has laws on the books against putting out trash too early, and also about condemning property (which I am admittedly not as familiar with, but I assume priorities safety over aesthetics, which makes sense). Municipalities have code enforcement and city councils to enforce the above rules. I've seen municipalities that do a better job at these kind of things than HOAs. I've also seen HOAs that don't do a good job of enforcing their laws, seemingly falling apart. (I wonder if they can be sued in these cases?) For example, I've seen HOA neighborhoods with cars parked everywhere - driveways, street, blocking driveways, and on lawns, because the houses were unaffordable unless four or more working people lived there, and there was no way to get anywhere except via car.
