Hey ya’ll. I live in a 200-unit community association in Colorado. Recently, a married couple in our community both won seats on the HOA board. I’m thinking there’s some sort of line that’s been crossed here but I’m not sure. I need your input. Thanks in advance!

I live in Colorado and from what I know it’s not illegal under state law – would advise to check your bylaws

It’s definitely iffy to have spouses serve on the same board since it gives a single household more power when it comes to community rules and resolutions. I’m no expert on the law, though, so I’d consult a lawyer if I were you.

Since Colorado law doesn’t prohibit it, then I don’t see why not

If your bylaws don’t allow it, you can call the board’s attention and maybe recall one of them. A similar incident happened in our HOA but with committees. We had to remove one of the spouses from the fining committee because our bylaws don’t allow it.
