Guest Jennifer Posted April 11, 2014 at 12:09 AM Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 at 12:09 AM We are having trouble finding a parliamentarian for our HOA. Mainly because one of our outspoken property owners tells everyone that if they become the Parliamentarian they give up their right to vote on any issues for the HOA as a property owner. I have read that the Parliamentarian can vote as long as their vote is not known. It would seem that if this were true, the Parliamentarian could vote in all secret ballots (budget, election of officers, changes in C&Rs and/or Bylaws). Does anyone know if this is correct? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edgar Posted April 11, 2014 at 12:16 AM Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 at 12:16 AM It's true. But if your presiding officer (i.e. chair, president) knows what he (or she) is doing, and if all the members know what the rules are, you won't need a parliamentarian. You could start by getting (and reading) RONR In Brief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nancy N. Posted April 15, 2014 at 09:13 PM Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 at 09:13 PM Why not hire a parliamentarian (from the outside)? Because you want them to give you their money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
