At the Board meeting yesterday, the President moved we add another Boar member. It was seconded and passed. I thought one of the current Board members was going to resign as she has been threatening to do for months. She had even given a letter of resignation to the President a few weeks ago, but we talked her into staying a while longer since another member (whom we did not know was going to resign) resigned due to health problems.
We replaced the member who resigned the next week, keeping us at 5 Board members.
On the first agenda our President sent this second member's resignation was on it. But the agenda had been revised and the Presdent passed out the revised agenda at the meeting.
Our By-Laws read The Board of Directors shall compose of (5) Directors, four (4) of whom shall be Members or spouses of Members...............................................The fifth Director shall be an officer or employee of the Declarant, shall be appointed and removed only by the Declarant and shall have an unlimited term of office.
The Director appointed by the Declarant is another issue in our community and long story as to why we do not have a Board member appointed by the Declarant.
Our documents state the Board can appoint a member to fill a term of a member who resigns. This 6th member is not replacing anyone.
My question is can we have 6 Board members?
I think we need to try to amend this to read at least 5 Board members with no reference to the Declarant.
