Can a board member ask the board president to leave a meeting?

Read your governing documents to determine who is responsible for leading a meeting. Often this is the president of the board.
Board members may disagree with a president's position on a matter. Using Roberts Rules of Order -- usually a recommended template for the conduct of board meetings -- board members can out-vote a president on a position.
A president who behaves badly during a board meeting -- and this is a different situation from a president with a firm position that other board members disagree with -- could be called out in a meeting for uncivil, rude or inappropriate behaviour by any board member or attendee.
If a president's actions require an executive session -- for example, a collection action being taking against the president for not paying assessments -- the board can call an executive session without inviting the president. Best practices dictate that in this case, the association attorney be involved.
Two tips that can be employed to potentially curb poor behaviour by anyone, include ending the meeting, and announcing according to your state law that the meeting is being recorded, and recording the meeting.
If the president is leading the meeting and behaving badly, all board members and attendees can leave the meeting, leaving the president to preside over an empty room.
If a meeting is recorded, best practices dictate that the transcript of the meeting be made public and the recording destroyed. Otherwise the recording can become evidence in a court of law and transcription of the recording an expense.
In particular, your association attorney can advise you on a specific situation.

Yes, a board member can request that the board president leave a meeting, but whether the request is granted may depend on the specific rules and procedures outlined in the organization's bylaws or governing documents. In some cases, a majority vote from the board members may be required to remove the board president from a meeting.

In a board meeting can a person not on the board be asked to leave?
Usually board meetings are open meetings, unless the board is discussing executive matters, such as staff payroll, or delinquent owners, by name, then only board members should be present. This means that owners, residents and prospective buyers should be welcome at open board meetings. This does not mean that someone can step off a bus at random and sit in on an association board meeting. Such a person should be challenged, and when unable to produce a valid reason for attending the meeting, be asked to leave. Board meetings that are run following Roberts Rules of Order -- and some governing documents require this paradigm -- can minimize disruption by disrupters. Most board meetings, although they are open meetings, can minimize participation by non-board members by structuring the agenda to handle the business at hand. When comments by non-board members are to be heard, a time limit can be set. Uninvited participation can be curtailed by the simple statement, "You are out of order." If a disrupter cannot be encouraged to participate under the conduct guidelines established by the board at the meeting, it's possible that the disrupter could be asked to leave. This request, however, should not be used to help a board resolve an outstanding issue that the disrupter has brought forward according to the board's business process.

Would it be a conflict of interest if a board member works for the property management company?
Yes, it would generally be considered a conflict of interest if a board member works for the property management company. This is because their role as a board member should be independent and focused on representing the best interests of the community or organization they serve, rather than prioritizing the interests of their employer. Board members should avoid situations where their personal or professional interests may influence their decision-making on matters related to the property management company.

HOA board members can request not to be tape recorded, but it depends on the laws and regulations of the specific jurisdiction. In some areas, all parties must consent to being recorded, while in others, one-party consent is sufficient.
