Best Answer

Read your governing documents to determine how the association's board is required to conduct business.

Usually, board meetings are called, owners are notified, an agenda describes the topics to be discussed and voted on, and minutes are generated documenting the events of the meeting.

The best association meetings are conducted using Roberts Rules of Order.

If your board is conducting business outside the guidelines documented in your governing documents, you can object in writing and request that your objection be handled at the next board meeting. Attend the meeting, and voice your objections. Then require a vote of the board: that it will either act within the definition written in the governing documents or it will act outside those parameters.

Once a board understands the liability involved in not following the governing documents, usually, order can be created.
