you have negative reactions to HOA Board members. I'm on a HOA board and I just got a request to get rid of bees. The owner knows that I will respond quickly. Our biggest issues are parking and messy balconies. We try our best to listen to owners. Our Board meetings are open to anyone who wants to attend.
We organize putting out de-icer and shovels during winter months, call the garbage company when there is an issue with not picking up the garbage, etc. The Board is currently dealing with voles and now bees, irrigation issues, etc. So not all HOA board members are terrible...
