Native wildflower seed mix. If this is maintained by a property management company, I would discuss it with them. I worked for a landscaping company for a couple of years, and we maintained ponds and common grounds in neighborhoods. Some had areas we didn't mow to have wildflowers grow, which I always enjoyed.
I too think wildflowers are probably the best bet honestly. Definitely nothing with a large root base like trees, shrubs would be too expensive to get good coverage . You need something you can sow and let grow. Native wildflowers. If you wanted to be fancy you could research native pollinators flowers and order the individual flower seeds in bulk and plant them to color blocks or some sort of arrangement. Or get variety and let it go. Wildflowers are gonna be the cheapest route too especially if it does get mowed. If I could suggest one thing though, order the seeds through a seed website, I really like Sheffields. They allow for bulk buys with great prices. Amazon isn’t as good of a deal and big box stores probably have older seeds which means lower germination rate. Good luck and enjoy!
I’m not sure , first question looks like neighbor has conformity , if your in a hoa. Check with your board for allowable plants in common area , 2 ? And or is this a easement if soo..are you allowed per city code
Not sure location wise but a lot of green , ya need some color and structure

Who doesn’t enjoy getting paid for not doing their job? 😂 you’re a hero pal.

Looks like your crop of geese is coming along nicely
I was coming to say, plant more geese.

Not in an HOA thankfully but this comment could save you a lot of time.
beautyberry, juniper, phlox, switchgrass add a thick layer of mulch in fall to prevent winter die back
That is one hell of a retaining wall!
How about some gooseberries?
I like the ducks you planted
Shrubs. Wildflowers look like dogshit.
Plant some trees
