Answer:

Hi Steven,

A conflict of interest does exist if the president is involved in selecting an insurance company. The president must recuse themselves from taking part in any selection or decision-making process for your insurance provider. However, a conflict of interest is not necessarily grounds for suspension or resignation. For condominiums, the Florida Condominium Act Section 718.3027 requires board members to disclose any potential conflicts of interest, among other requirements.
