Guest Gunther Posted September 6, 2011 at 05:13 PM Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 at 05:13 PM In a HOA, can a husband make a motion and then can his wife second? Each membership has one vote, but does that hold during the motioning process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert B Fish Posted September 6, 2011 at 05:52 PM Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 at 05:52 PM Your organization must make the final determination of the meaning of your bylaws but if each propety gets one vote, then either the husband or wife--but not both--represent that vote at the meeting.Any member may second the motion made by another member. You have a customized rule that apparently assigns membership to property rather then persons so your HOA must figure out who has the right to represent the property in a meeting. IMO, whoever is representing the property has the rights of membership, such as making and seconding motions. -Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if the husband and wife are truly the only ones who want to see the motion come before the assembly (whether or not there is ambiguity concerning the rights of their membership), the assembly could block it with the motion Objection to the Consideration of a Question, found in Section 26 of RONR (10th ed.).
