Read your governing documents to determine whether or not your meetings are open meetings: the dictate may also be available in state law.

Unless the board is in executive session, it is unreasonable that the board would bar residents -- owners or tenants from an open board meeting.

If the meetings are open meetings by law, and especially if a tenant holds an owner's proxy, there isn't any good reason to deny a renter a seat at an association meeting.
