Mike, I did not go through any committees. Huntington Village rules on this was not more than 10 ft above the rooftop. ( based on what I found on the web.) Not sure what your HOA is and would not recommend going around your HOA
So, I will share what I did and you can decide. 

Setup a portable 33 ft mast on a 2 story house in the back yard. Painted the 18 ft antenna sky blue and mounted portable mast to the side of the house with an M bracket. So from antenna feed line the antenna height was about 33 ft. Total height was closer to 50 ft.

Never heard anything from HOA. Antenna was knocked down in December 2020 from severe wind storm. Now I am in the process of setting up NVIS antenna 10 ft off the ground which no one will see 😊

Hope this helps
