## What do you think? Question:

I'm managing a 220 unit [condo association](https://www.condoassociation.com/CondoAssociation/tabid/83434/Default.aspx) in Maryland. One board member has had a collection [lien](https://www.condoassociation.com/blog/tabid/19257/Default.aspx?Tag=Liens) placed on his unit from our association due to nonpayment of condo fees. The annual meeting is next month but this board members term will not be expired as of the meeting date. The [bylaws](https://www.condoassociation.com/blog/tabid/19257/bid/8763/Sample-ByLaws-for-a-Condo-Association-or-HOA.aspx) state that any owner with a [collection](https://www.condoassociation.com/collections/tabid/88863/Default.aspx) lien on his/ her unit cannot vote. Does this board member have to resign - not in good standing so may not be board member, or be replaced by other board members, or can he remain on board with a condo lien on his unit since his board term has not yet expired? Thank you
