Hi.
I have owned several townhomes in AZ. One property recently changed management companies. I received this present today seen below (on the heals of a $5k special assessment divided monthly into just a few short years). I'm wondering if a simple board of director's vote could add a lease management clause with an annual management fee, or if there would need to be a quorum and majority vote? If this seems wrong, what does anyone recommend I do. I do a great job of vetting and managing my annual tenants and have never had issues. In addition, I don't want the mgmt co. to see my leases, as I don't think they have that right or need. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Dear Village at West Meadow Townhomes HOA Homeowners, The Village at West Meadow Townhomes HOA Board of Directors has instructed PMI Phoenix Valley to initiate the Leasing Management Program for all homeowners.

• Creation and maintenance of a list of tenants' names and contact information.
• Inclusion of tenants in the association website with "renter" level access.

• Preparation of quarterly reports for the Board of Directors outlining the current status of the leasing program.
