Questions
Yes, when its documents require approval. The decision must be made in good faith, not be unreasonable, and be in writing. A denial must explain why and describe how to ask the board to reconsider, and you're entitled to reconsideration at an open board meeting.
No. California voids HOA rules that effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict an accessory dwelling unit or junior ADU on a single-family lot that meets state ADU law. Reasonable restrictions that don't unreasonably raise cost or block the unit are allowed.
Only what its declaration or published guidelines specifically state or reasonably imply about an improvement's location, size, type or appearance, applied equally to all owners. It can't regulate an interior that isn't visible from the frontage, a neighboring parcel or common area.
