Just going through the workaround given in below url. What if you are not
allowed to use "standby use-bia"
Workaround

  a.. Issue the standby use-bia command on the routers. This forces the
routers to use a burned-in address for HSRP instead of the virtual MAC
address.

  b.. Disable port security on the switch ports that connect to the HSRP
enabled routers.
