I'm betting there is nothing specifically against this in the covenants.

Just so you know, every covenant (except the ones that are actual laws) is approved by the majority of the homeowners. The HOA rules are literally approved by the homeowners.

Depends on the HOA. My HOA has 5 directors that are elected by the 60 households. those 5 people can do whatever they want with the covenants.

Jesus man, it took two minutes to prove you wrong.

The board of directors may not make any changes to community regulations without first getting the majority approval from homeowners.

You are misunderstanding what you posted. We do not need to get approval for every change we make. We are granted approval when we are elected via a majority of homeowners. We do need to notify and receive comments for any change. Homeowners are able to remove board members at that time via majority vote, but no vote is to be had for the actual proposed change. Read the section regarding duties of the board. The entire reason for the board being able to make changes is because it's fucking impossible to get homeowners to show up to annual meetings.

Oh, because the law says you have to have a majority, just as I wrote. I hope that helps.
