The fact that people consider native plants weeds is exactly the problem.

That's part of the problem but even a yard composed of "acceptable" plants can be over grown and unkempt. If you look at the OP's photos of his yard you'll see that it is just a mess of plants with no rhyme or reason.

I think it looks wonderful. 1000x better than the bland, sterile putting greens in front of boring mc mansions.
It's OP's property - why must OP's property conform to your rhyme or reason?
Believe me when I say that I have no love of my lawn but regardless of legality or fairness:
The OP agreed to the laws of the municipality when he moved into the home. If the house he purchased was part of a covenant or an HOA, then the sell was not allowed to sell to him unless he agreed to the terms of said covenant or HOA.
If the OP objected to or did not educate himself to any of those laws or rules prior to agreeing to them, that's his fault.
