condo "assessments"

Massachusetts. I live in a condo that is part of the condo association. I just purchased it in May 2004. (I lived here renting for a few years also). I just got a notice from the association stating all condo's would have to pay $1,800. for past water bills from who knows when. The water bill is $70,000 with interest. The association is getting a loan for $100,000 to pay for this, and that is why we would have to pay the $1800. I dont think I should have to pay for someone elses water bill. Do I have to pay for this? Also, we pay $250 a month condo fee, this is suppose to cover everything on the exterior, but over the past couple years there have been assesments of $250, $500, to cover repairs to the outside. Also, turns out the condo association people never filed taxes so Im sure that will be another assessment. What can I do about all this??? (Im mainly worried about the back water bill assessment)
