Recently changes were made to our changing the date of our condo association annual meeting and elections. Our annual meeting used to be in April, now it's any month during the year that the wants to have it. The question is what happens with the terms of the board members. This would allow the board members to stay on the board longer then the time they were elected for per our condo documents. The condo board members that were elected to serve one year in April of last year will now be serving more time on the board if they were to hold the annual meeting and elections in November or December of this year. As you can see they will be serving 7 or 8 months longer then they were elected for by the homeowners per our documents. Is this legal for them to serve longer then they were elected for or by changing the documents change this? Thanks

Did they get 1/3 of the association to vote on the change?

I am having a similar problem with our association. We hold meeting in March. It was April this year till we had our meeting, then we voted for management service. It is now July and we still have not voted on a new board (as they all 3 stepped down). We have a meeting this sunday July 25th and I will almost bet there will not be enough members present to vote. I ask whether we could take verbal votes on the phone if they cannot make it, or have them write in. No response to that question I got. 
 
 
 
This board is so not responsible. She has yet to even post or send out the letter for this weeks meeting. So I am looking for another month of them staying on the board. So what can we do I ask? I guess sit and wait it out until we get things changed over. 
 
As for your guestion, I do not believe they can change the date on their own, so get the rest of the members together and then send them a letter with the names of the people that object and see what happens. Otherwise I guess you sit and wait it out also. 
 
I hate condo Association and will never buy into them again!!!!
