What do the bird sanctuary and lake have to do with prohibiting your use

It is one of the homeowner association rules around here.

You're kidding! A homeowners' association that prohibits weedkillers?
Are you sure you understand this correctly? Maybe the prohibition is
against Agent Orange, but I've never heard of a group interested in
making rules that would require everyone to get out and dig.

your original query, dandelions will re-grow from even the
smallest fragment of root. And how come you're digging them up and
leaving them on top of the ground? They can certainly produce seed
from already-mature blossoms after they've been dug up but not
disposed of.
