I'm the President of our MN HOA and we have a total of 5 Board of Directors and this is my 1st year as president and our Treasure has been difficult from day one. I had initially asked her to be the Treasury for the Board and sign checks for vendors that needed to be paid. We had our bldg painted this past summer and needless to say the painters were not good at their job and we had to address several issues regarding the quality of the paint job.
Our Treasure refused to sign the check until the vendors fixed the issues, which is fine so we had the vendor come back 4 times and everyone was happy with the results. The Treasure still refused to sign the check and this went on for several months so I finally stepped in and said that the check needed to be paid and it was not open for further discussion since they had come back and everyone except her was happy. She got mad and asked me who I thought I was to tell her that it had to be paid so when we had our board meeting I once again asked her to sign the check and I also put it to a vote to the other board member asking if they thought the bill should be paid. The other board members all felt it should be paid and she still refused to sign it so I signed it. I now sign the checks so I know that they get paid.
She talks over everyone and will not listen to anything I say or anyone else and everyone walks out of the meeting with a headache because when someone else tries to speak she talks louder above them. I have talked to her about bullying and the way she has treated people a couple of times and of course she says she is not bullying anyone.
She has been working on updating our Party Room Rules & Regulations and doing a great job, but we say that what she has needs to be changed that we don't what something in the rules and she will not listen. It's like she is going to do what she wants and what we say doesn't matter.
I have thought maybe if I not give her any responsibilities that might help. Does anyone have any suggestions how I should handle this?
