Yeah, lawyer's the move. If they need a letter from you, then this restriction is not in the CC&Rs (California speak for the "the rules.") See, if it was already in the rules, you'd be automatically bound to agree them when you bought the house. And if it's not in the CC&Rs, why haven't they put it there? And why are they trying to make _you_ do it?

Something's fishy. See the lawyer, _and_ take a copy of all the HOA agreements. I highly recommend a real estate lawyer. One recommendation: bring the papers by in advance of your appointment, so he/she can look at them before talking to you. Your lawyer might even be cool enough not to charge for that.
