Hi, my first post, so I hope I have posted in the right forum..

I am a member of a CC where we have a dispute over payments to a member for handling administrative issues regarding renting out a property owned by the CC. We are going to put the dispute to a vote for resolution. My question is, must the member who has the direct financial interest recuse himself from the vote? My feeling is that he must as he cannot vote to pay himself something that is in dispute. What do the forum members think? Thanks guys
