Non-Members at Condominium Annual Meeting


New Secretary

Recommended Posts

Are non-Members of a small condominium association allowed to attend Meetings? The Bylaws seem silent on the matter. Some are concerned that a Unit Owner may bring an attorney, or a person claiming to be an attorney, to a Meeting, and they do not know how to handle the potential situation. If allowed to be present, can a non-Member speak?

Thank you.

People who are not members of the body which is meeting don't have the right to attend (RONR p. 625, 628). If the body wishes to allow a nonmember to speak when no question is pending they can do so by a majority vote but if a question is pending the rules would have to be suspended to allow a nonmember to enter into debate which requires a 2/3 vote (RONR p. 255 [footnote]).
