Homeowners may face liens from city:
After homeowners association disbanded, city forced to mow common areas, out $1,600 - Clarksville, TN
This is the kind of thing I am expecting to see a lot more of in the years to come.
Homeowner associations, when working smoothly, can be the perfect tool to keep neighbors' yards mowed and chain-link fences at bay. One Clarksville neighborhood, however, is demonstrating what happens when those associations fall apart. In short, things get complicated...Riggins said the city's policy regarding inactive homeowner associations, which allows it to place liens on individual property owners when communal properties are no longer maintained, is a standard practice in other cities.

These people have a real opportunity. What they should do is simply agree, as a community, to get the grass mowed. That's it. A simple, voluntary contract that provides for the mowing of the grass only. No CC&Rs. No Bylaws. No Rules & Regs. Just cutting the grass. It would make for an interesting experiment.
