Right now I've been communicating with the building manager.  An outside hired agent.  He's a robot and a money shark.  I think my best option is to appeal to the condo board president directly.  Forfeiting 80% of the fee is quite punitive.   Sometimes he's agreeable if you go weep at his feet.


I was pondering if mentioning the lack of financials & board meetings/elections to the board president as a way to nudge him, but that might set him off.


As far as voting out the current board - we tried a few years ago.  The building has a commercial tenant who votes with the board not mater what.  That's a huge %.  That and the current board members have a large ownership stake.  The board actually got a resident who was actively selling her unit to run for the board. (4 seats total)  This was to prevent the upstarts from getting a position.  Seller made a deal with board to be a yes person in exchange for smooth sailing during the sale.  Disagreeing with the board and not playing nice means trouble for dissenters.  Play nice and get favorable treatment.  I almost wish I wasn't a dissenter a few years ago as feeble as that sounds.  I think other non-board members feel the same and hence we all live in a dictatorship.


Sorry for the rant.
