Cameras allow the HOA to monitor residents, whether or not they're technically allowed to
This is a good one, and perhaps, depending on your jurisdiction, it could open the HOA to potential civil litigation for privacy violations. There may also be requirements for reporting or retention if law enforcement or a court requests it, and that's additional overhead.
This is a great point. Do the cameras have microphones? Is it a two-party/all-party consent state?
Now you need to get consent from every person who might end up being recorded.
