White Pines

Hello, we have 4 very large white pines in our neighborhood (40-50 feet tall). Our HOA would like to trim one side of these as they are impeding on a home. There has also been discussion on if they should be topped. I have read this is generally frowned on. Can you tell me any benefits to topping and the negative effects of doing it? Thank you!
