Ask for minutes of the meetings. Check the HOA rules to see what is required as far as votes to pass anything requiring spending money such as special assessments then ask for financial statements.

Thank you for your answer. The HOA has no reserve funds set up. We do have an active board but so far they are refusing to act on the matter. I have spent my own cash on getting the system working temporarily. Rather than pursue legal means I have decided to get the county involved. I called the county inspector and she said as long as there are no odor or viable leakage there isn’t much they can do yet. But, I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before the system totally fails and the inspector can take action to force the HOA to take action or face fines. In hind sight I wish I would have checked into the community system before purchasing the property, but who does these things?
I find it rather odd the community won’t spend 600 every 6 months to properly maintain a system, then have it potentially fail costing 100,000’s….it’s just stupid.

We have the same in our neighborhood. We have a neighbor who is loud, abusive, uses profanity in public, and is suspected of dealing drugs. Only thing we did as an HOA is get together and share thoughts in dealing with it. We have been in constant contact with local police force who are well aware of the situation and we intend to keep the pressure on in reporting public activity.

Interesting question. I know with many HOA’s “legality” is sometimes determined by what has been allowed in the past without objections.
