Admin Abandoned Board

So, I'm a co-Admin at a board, but the Admin who started the board has abandoned it. She's done this once before and left a team in charge and then come back and removed the entire staff and changed every change made to the board. She then abandoned it again, leaving another person in charge, who created a new team. We're now worried that she will come back to the board and do the same all over again if she finds out somehow that we've done something she doesn't like. The board has been opened for years and she abandoned it the first time back in like 2005/2006. She came back last year and abandoned it again in that same year and she hasn't signed in since February. Is there anything any of us can do to remove her as the Root Admin? There are tons of members of the board and it's still very active, but we're worried to do anything to improve the board because of what she did last time. Any suggestions?

Quantum-locked when observed.

The person who controls the member #1 account (usually the creator of the board) is considered the board owner. If the board owner decides to remove the staff, change the board in any way, or even delete the board outright, then that is her prerogative, even if it is detrimental to the community.

If you feel that her interest in maintaining the board has lapsed, you can persuade her to transfer ownership to another person by giving that person the password to the member #1 account. Until she does that, however, she is ultimately in control, despite inactivity or unpopular decisions.
