The right to amend the Declaration, or Master Deed, must be reserved, or set forth, in the Master Deed. You need to review it. Amendments should be drafted by an attorney who specializes in condominium law in your jurisdiction.
The process of amending your Declaration, or Master Deed, is set forth therein. Once drafted by an association-savvy attorney, the amendment must be voted upon by an uber-majority -- 67% or even 90% depending on the goal of the amendment -- and recorded before it becomes effective.
An effective way to achieve the votes you need to pass an amendment is to open a dialog with all owners regarding the situation that can be addressed by the amendment. State the purpose, seek comments, and take this basic work to the attorney who will craft the amendment.

Depending on the state, you may be required to record these amendments in the local hall of records. At least, a copy should be provided to all owners. A local association manager may be able to answer your question.
We the People cannot, nor would we ever want to, change the wording of the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration is not a governing document that can be amended like the Constitution. It is a letter from the Founders to the King of Britain.
Not if the condo was built to code.
