Condo association property damage - who pays for the repairs?

| Property Damage & Repairs |  


Question:

Our condo Association has 182 units and 56 are not paying maintenance and special assessments. The units do not have individual water meters or shut off valves. One in foreclosure for June 21 2010, has a major plumbing leak in the tub and water is running a stream. This overflowed and drenched the 2nd floor unit and the lobby. We must get a plumber it to install a shut off valve. The owner can not be found and my question is who can we bill for the plumbing bill and clean up? Is this some thing that the mortgage company would pay for? Or does the long suffering and on the brink of disaster membership have to bear the burden of the repair?
