That would be true if you were determined to breach the CC&Rs and keep
the fence color over the HOA's objections, or if you had a suit-happy
HOA that threatened to file liens over every alleged violation.

If the OP is still interested in cooperating with the HOA, then
there's no reason to escalate it to lawyer involvement. But if the OP
wishes to make the case that the HOA is bound not to enforce the CC&Rs
against him, say because they have not enforced against other
homeowners with similar fences, then you're right, he needs
professional assistance.
