Can HOA board bundle proposals for a vote and, if it fails, revote with old proxies?

The article from MSN discusses the legality and ethics of Homeowners Association (HOA) boards bundling multiple proposals into a single vote and then revoting on failed proposals using old proxies. It explains that bundling proposals can be problematic because it forces homeowners to accept or reject multiple issues as a package, potentially against their individual preferences. If a bundled proposal fails, some HOA boards might attempt to use old proxies to revote, which raises concerns about the validity of these proxies, as they might not reflect current homeowner opinions or might have expired. The article highlights that such practices can lead to disputes and legal challenges, emphasizing the importance of transparency, adherence to HOA bylaws, and ensuring that voting processes are fair and reflect the current will of the community. It also notes that homeowners should be aware of their rights and the governance rules of their HOA to prevent or address such issues.
