In the interest of fairness, you would typically have to have it in the language that most people can understand - do the majority of condo board members not understand English? Also, getting assigned "observer" status is patronizing. It's like them making decisions and you get no say until afterwards. At minimum there should be an English translator for everything said in the meeting, and a second to double check the authenticity of the translation. I think he has every right to make a complaint, and I would also try and get on the condo board and ensure all future meetings have English translation and English meeting minutes.
