I am at a loss about where to go from here. I questioned the President and Vice concerning an issue and was told that the Association does not get to vote on the hiring of a pool security guard that they are attempting to pay for out of our reserve funds. At our monthly meeting the Board of Directors basically used intimidation tactics and invited a newly obtained lawyer who stated to the member’s present, that the only voting rights members have is at our annual meeting, to vote in elections for our Board. The lawyer also stated, “the members can take the Board to court but it boils down to who will bleed out first.” This is sad that they have this much power and I question then what is the point of our governing documents, FL. Statues 720 or even attending the meetings if the members have no rights? <br />I appreciate all the work you are doing to change the HOA dictatorships.
