Our CCR's state "The management and complete control of the Association's affairs and the project itself will be the direct responsibility of the Board of Directors, which is to consist of members of the Association who will be elected by the total membership of the Association."
The CCR's state Member shall mean an Owner with a membership in the Association. They also state an Owners shall mean and refer to the record Owner(s), whether one (1) or more persons or entities, of fee simple title to any Condominium which is part of the Property, including contract sellers, but excluding those having such interests merely as security for the performance of an obligation.
Our Bylaws state that Directors need not be Members of the Association.
In Article 10 (Declaration of Establishment of Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions) of the Bylaws though, it states that provisions of the Declaration are hereby incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of these Bylaws and the provisions of the said Declaration, the provisions of the Declaration shall prevail.
Am I understanding this correctly that you MUST be an Member/Owner to be elected/appointed to a board position.
My questions then would be:
1) Would this mean that a non member appointed to the board should not be there?
2) Should that Board Member resign or asked to step down?
3) Who's responsible for allowing this to happen?
