Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

This is involving the bylaws for associations to follow for the state of Florida. I am a renter, my land lord is the owner. There was time that I the renter was getting lots of complaints about the going ins of my unit, which none of the accusations were backed up with any evidence, just all hear say stuff, which was what the association went with. I the tanant/renter along with my landlord owner were so worn down by threats of the association, that I called on a meeting, where I called four people as witness to witness my meeting with the board members. Three years have gone by without a single complaint until March 31, 2014. I found out a child who lives across from me, called the board to complain because she wanted too. My landlord is getting tired of all the complaints going to her, from the board. She said as far as any complaints the board has in the future with me, she would rather have them call me directly, not her. Well, the vice president stated by law they have to contact the owner of the premises, not the tenant. Is this true. I remember reading somewhere that as long as my landlord puts in writing, to the association that she is transferring any complaints about the unit that I stay in, to me the tenant, that would be fine. Is that true. The association does quite well in accepting unfounded alleged complaints, without any facts. Can they keep doing this as well?
