Hiring an HOA Board Member’s Relative

Question:

We have a board member with family member working for our HOA. I’m told it’s okay because we need the help.

– Carolyn

 

Answer:

Hi Carolyn,

The board member with the conflict of interest should have recused themselves from the discussion and vote to hire said family member. Additionally, they should recuse themselves from all future decisions and discussions involving the family member. This way, the HOA can avoid a conflict of interest and prevent liability issues.
