How to guarantee Board of Director turnover

How to guarantee Board of Director turnover:

  • wait until you see that a board member is outside their condo or out on the common elements to communicate your concern or complaint - after all, it is so much more convenient than picking up the telephone or sending an e-mail
  • better yet, stop them while they are in the middle of performing a voluntary task for the association that is above and beyond the role of a board member - if they've got that much time on their hands, surely they won't mind the interruption
  • even better is to wait until another co-owner has already stopped them and add your complaint to the conversation - and if it's already two on one, why not make it three on one?
  • another way is to track a board member down while they are on their knees working to repair a broken sprinkler head and threaten a lawsuit in response to having received a violation notice in the mail - just because the board took the time and effort to communicate in writing doesn't mean that you have to do the same

The Manors at Central Park will need to find one or more co-owners who are willing to run for election to the Manors spot on the board of directors of the Central Park Master Association.  I will not accept nomination to that post when my current term expires in April 2013.  However, I do intend to run again for the Manors board when my current term expires in January 2013.
