President conduct

The current President is running again because he has told all the new residents that the only reason he is running is to prevent me. He is not a rule person and I am. Most of the board members are new, don't know there CCR's and by laws so no one pushes back on him at the meetings, only me. He said he doesn't care. As in my previous posts are elections are in May, but because he figures on his own that no one wants to be on the board he just moved two board members up another year on his own. Their term expires this May. Two residents are arguing over each other's dog barking and a lot of other issues. One of them wrote a letter to the board members and the President told them the park would not get involved. not a park issue. He told them he does not care. Looking for advice please

I agree with Melissa that you should emphasize the positives of your campaign. Also, if you have an entrenched, do-nothing board, you'll need allies. You can't correct things by yourself, as you've discovered, and it may be a multi-year process to get things moving. If the majority of owners are happy with the status quo, you may be out of luck no matter how correctly you're viewing the situation.

Also, FWIW: associations should stay out of disputes between owners unless the dispute involves a violation of your governing documents, in which case the aggrieved neighbor should file a formal, written complaint with the board. In any case, a single complaint by one owner would not be grounds for action unless it is supported by reasonable evidence: eg. complaints from other owners about the same thing or board members witnessing the violation. The current president may be right to stay out of this.
