I need your help with a couple of issues that are prevalent in our board meetings. I’ve been told that only board members can speak during the board meeting; that only board members can make a motion; anytime a homeowner wants to present an agenda item, under new business, our current board President closes the board meeting and only then can a homeowner speak. Needless to say I believe this way of handling the meetings is counterproductive. After a ‘report’ is given (treasurer, landscape, architecture) isn’t it proper for the president to ask if there are any questions. At that time a homeowner may ask a question related to that report. Is this the proper way to handle Reports? Which I believe expedites the meeting. Yes? No? Is it true that only board members can can made a motion? I asked to be put on the agenda under New Business because I wanted to make a motion before the board and homeowners present to be discussed. However, when it came time for New Business, the meeting was closed before I could speak , and of course I was told only board members can make motions. No ‘discussion was allowed on what I presented to the board. Did the board function correctly in this case? I’ve never been in a meeting where no one could make motions or be allowed to talk during a business meeting. How detailed should the minutes of the meeting be? The minutes from the above meeting did not accurately reflect the two items I presented; and, the one motion that was made and seconded by board members was not reflected in the minutes at all. Any clarification and direction you can provide is greatly appreciated.
