Qualifications for Candidacy in Maryland HOA

Question:

Can an existing Board member or any resident of the community run for re-election/election if they have existing violations and/or been sent to collections for nonpayment of HOA account?

Several residents and I look forward to your reply.
If you could possibly cite the resource for your reply this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Answer:

Hi Deborah,

Maryland law currently does not address this. However, your HOA’s governing documents may. Check your CC&Rs and bylaws to see what qualifications homeowners must have to be able to run for positions on your HOA board, and whether or not those with current violations or unpaid dues can become candidates.
