    That’s a tough situation. I believe that the HOA should hold elections even if the board members’ terms have expired. Check your governing documents—there might be a provision for filling vacant positions or holding elections in such a case.

    If the HOA is inactive and unresponsive, I’d say that it’s time to get new members in place. If the current board isn’t making any moves, I think you can petition for a new election. You may want to contact a lawyer to confirm the process, though.

    I went through something similar in my old community. What worked was rallying a few neighbors to demand a meeting. If enough people show interest, you may be able to push for a vote or even appoint temporary members until elections are held.

    In our HOA, we had a similar issue, and eventually, the remaining board members just kept electing themselves. Make sure to check the bylaws for a specific process for re-electing a new board. If nothing’s happening, start gathering support from other homeowners to get things moving.
