In 1997 I purchased a home for my elderly parents to live in.  I am the legal owner of the house, pay association dues etc.    I went to apply to be on the board of directors and was told that I had to be a resident there.   My Dad applied to be on the board but renters cannot be on the board so I have no representation.  I can vote on all other issue. I have been on many other board of directors for HOA's in california and this is a first for me.  Is this legal?
