<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">This is an excellent point. I represent associations. The current state of the statutes, especially for HOAs, not condos, and the way our appellate courts interpret them and prior cases, it is comically easy
to play "gotcha" with associations. Very few are able to follow all the rules, and the current uncertainty about how to vote on assessments, with the surprising result in the Sudden Valley case (against all expectations; when I litigated that issue, I talked
to the prime legislative sponsor and the attorney drafter, and I don't think they would agree with Division 1); any member with enough cash to hire a reasonably adept lawyer can make the whole association miserable and feed his or her ego endlessly.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">The challenge is to find a member with an objection, and a lawyer, who are willing to find a constructive solution instead of burning down the village to save it; and to find a Board with a lawyer who can
tell them forcefully that collaborative problem solving is better than trying to build from the ashes. That's spelled "mediation," if they can't do it on their own. This takes creative and courageous lawyering on both sides.
