Calle Miramar rear-slope retaining wall after HOA litigation ends
Summary
A homeowner wants a 5-foot retaining wall to flatten part of his rear-yard slope, a fight that once drew litigation from the neighborhood HOA. That case has been dismissed and the HOA is dissolving, so the commission cleared the wall with neighbors still worried about visibility and slope stability.

Impact analysis
The property owner gains usable flat yard space; the neighborhood keeps screening landscaping at the wall base.
Downhill neighbors object to the wall's visibility and the loss of the neighborhood-wide slope oversight that the dissolving HOA once provided.
