I admit this is best left to lawyers, but generally CC&R's are passed

Once the HOA dissolves, CC&R's are not binding and individuals have no

Seems that isn't a certainty. I've heard of long-defunct HOA's being
resurrected and resuming their "patrol". Then you *might* be able to
prevail on other grounds but that wouldn't keep you out of court with
all the legal expense involved.

Employing a legalism to an advantage may lay in claiming a "silent
easement." This is where you can seize property through "improvements
made" that go uncontested by others. But again, find a real estate
lawyer who may just mutter incomprehensibly at this plot.
