    At least the managing agent seems to have the situation sussed enough to check with another EC member before going ahead. 

    Perhaps the EC just needs to manage the difficult guy by specifying jobs very precisely, more so than might be necessary in other circumstances, then insisting that the managing agent be used to obtain a trades person. Use the formality of EC resolutions to do particular things, to delegate particular tasks to particular people etc. In other circumstances this might be overly bureaucratic but bureaucracy and proper process can be your friend when you need it.
