Typically, directors do not receive payment as their role is voluntary. In order for a board member to receive remuneration, a by-law must be established and approved at a meeting by a majority of unit owners in the condominium. This by-law is only valid for three years and must specify the compensation amount to prevent any potential misuse. It's important to note that a significant portion of the benefits derived from serving as a board member are innate. In other words, the motivation stems from the personal satisfaction of making a positive impact on the community.
