Condo Association Management Blog

Not quite clear if this is a timing issue i.e. the amendment to the by-lawas has been agreed but not yet in effect, or whether the amendment has not yet been approved or was rejected. 
 
If the former I cannot see that there should be any objection , if the latter then the owner is in breach of the By-laws and the remedies for such a breach should be stated in the By-laws.

Then why is the Bd taking so long as to give approval? These are tough times and to allow someone rent out a room - so long as tenants are well checked out, appears to me to be the better thing to do in tough times rather than let an owner go bankrupt and then everyone loses including all other owners. In a few years when the economy recovers this can always be looked at again and if all agree then there could be a ban on renting but you would have to vote on the issue. It appears to me in these tough times that those who vote against renters are the very people who in the past rented themselves in their initial years so that they could get on their feet and yet the sane people never want anyone else to survive. Seems very selfish to me. However, I agree that renters have to follow the rules and be carefully screened.

Tough times yes. Please consider the consequences of a building with 3x people in it that was designed to handle x? What about the people who love in it and count on sleep? And not hearing the door and hall traffic and parking... for 3x people.

I live in and own a condo in Malden MA. As unit owner do I have the right to access/review all the various vendor contracts the management company presently holds relating to the property. Your feedback will be appreciated.
