Please read your governing documents to determine what percentage of the membership is required to change/ amend/ alter/ adjust your governing documents. The percentages are different depending on whether the change is to:
- the CC&Rs -- your private democracy's 'constitution', or
- the By-laws -- your private democracy's business conduct rules
The board may clarify existing documents by way of a board resolution, and the board vote on a resolution is the only vote required. Board resolutions must be published to all members.
If you believe that your board has materially altered your CC&Rs or your By-laws without a vote of the membership, and your governing documents don't allow such a board-only-vote for an alteration, write a letter to the board quoting the section in your governing documents that you believe that the board violated.
In the letter, ask for a spot on the next board meeting agenda, and request a discussion that includes an explanation of the board for its vote. Finally, ask the board for a vote on their action, as to its legitimacy.
When you take this approach, the board's action and violation, if one occurred, and their vote to either uphold or revise their action, will be documented in the association minutes.

Who is considered a home owner?
In our little corner of the world we define/clarify a homeowner as the owner of record on the deed. So, yes, in our neck of the woods, you would have to actually be listed on the deed to be considered the "homeowner" that is eligible to be on the board, if our governing documents restricted directors to association members. If you are not listed on the deed, you are not a member of our association, even though you may be married to the person listed on the title/deed. If you're name isn't on there with him/her, then you are not a qualified owner/member of the association. However, our directors are not required to be association homeowners/members, so a spouse of a member could run for our board of directors.

Not usually. That's why it's an "association." Each member is equally liable to third parties for the acts of the other members done in the name of the association. HOA rules may determine how the association divides the liabilities among themselves (e.g., equal share of painting contractor costs, or according to how many square feet owned by each member, etc).
