Condominium by law changes procedure

tsp1cjs · #1 Nov 7, 2009, 06:07 AM

I live in a condo in NJ & the board wants to change the by laws. There has only been 1 meeting to discuss the proposed changes. Don't they have to have a meeting after changing the proposal, before voting on to discuss as owners?

I just found out my copy isn't a legal binding copy & I get the run a round trying to obtain a legal copy. I'll probably have to obtain myself & pay for it, but by that time they may have already been changed as voting already started & ends early Dec. My board sucks, they are trying to change the Quorum percentage to vote to 33% of 75 & that's just the start of it.

Thanks.

I have what I thought was binding but after showing it to someone they said it wasn't because it's not stamped with #'s. My attorney is no longer with it I'm afraid it's too late to get a copy, but I'm trying to get someone else who lives here look it up for me. I have 2 jobs & so much other stuff going on, it's hard to find time & most of the time talking to these old owners to make them understand is like hitting my head against a wall & a big waste of my time, but I'll keep trying. Thanks for your input.

Have you spoken to other members about your concerns? The quorum change sounds to me like you have a disinterested owner community and the board is having trouble getting things done because they can't get a quorum at meetings.
