Home owners associations are private democracies that operate under a set of governing documents. These governing documents are patterned after state law, which governs real estate ownership situations were multiple owners own assets together.
You can read your governing documents to determine the 'rules', which are only part of the guidelines. Covenants, conditions and restrictions are also part of the body of guidelines you'll find in your governing documents.
If you are looking for information related to a particular home owner's association in Fort Mitchell, Alabama then you need to either check your deed for a reference to the recording information for the HOA or perform research for the community development in the land records to find them.

No. The association board members, presumed to be owners in the association, are governed by the CC&Rs, the By-laws and the rules the same way all owners are governed. Often, sadly, board members choose to ignore these agreements that they make with all other owners, especially when they are elected by members. Read your governing documents to determine how to gather owners to collaborate with each other to document rules violations by board members and keep that documentation in board meeting minutes. Sheding light on these issues, sometimes is curative.
If you purchased your property subject to the by-laws and rules & regulations of a Homeowner's Association you cannot remove your property from the association. All the other owners have the right to expect that each owner must follow the rules and pay their share in the assessments and maintenance fees. Removing your property from the association would mean that you could not share in any of the benefits of the association, including amenities, roadways, common area parking, trash removal, sewer service, master insurance coverage and so forth. There would be no way to accommodate your property separately from the common elements owned by all owners. As an alternative, you can remove yourself from the association by selling your property to a new owner.

You hire an association-savvy attorney in your state who tailors the state's condominium law -- if there is one -- to fit you, the developer's, business objectives. The original association documents include the language to protect the developer's initial interests, and also includes the language the original buyers will use as the foundation for their governing documents. Usually, the association is a non-profit corporation within your state -- but it could be a profit corporation if the association owns amenities that it rents out, such as a golf course. Your association-savvy attorney can help you understand how to define, craft, file and operate a condominium owners association.
Of course--if the association likes to pay attorney fees and court costs to the property owners whose land title was slandered by the lien. If the association is not in the deed of the property, then the association has no authority to compel payment of dues. For the same reason, those property owners have no authority to enjoy property and facilities owned by the association. Check with a title company to see if the association is in the deed of the delinquent properties.Another PerspectiveSometimes early property owners adjacent to lake communities will voluntarily join the association and thereby make the facilities appurtenant to their own lots and make their property subject to its rules and regulations. Also, adjacent tract owners may voluntarily make their lots subject to the rules and regulations in order to maintain the community at a high standard and attract buyers. You need to consult with the attorney who represented you when you purchased the property to determine if your property was ever made subject to the rules and regulations of the leisure community. That information would be disclosed by a comprehensive title examination.
