## What do you think? Question:

![woman-whispering-to-man](http://www.condoassociation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/woman-whispering-to-man.jpg?width=190&name=woman-whispering-to-man.jpg)I have two questions:

We have a husband and wife who jointly own a condo unit. Can one make a motion, and the other second it, or must it be seconded by another unit owner?

Also, can the association president make a proposal to be voted on without temporarily relinquishing his role as president?
