If there are other members of the community, who are using the community, it does not seem as if the community should be deleted.
Even if the maintainer is gone, if the community has old entries that are still in any way relevant (fiction, humor, advice), it does not seem as if the community should be deleted, particularly if the entries are public.
If the community's only member is a suspended maintainer, and the community has no public entries, I see little problem with deleting the whole community -- that maintainer is not likely to be coming back, and there is nothing left for the public to view. In the event that the previous maintainer does come back under a new account (assuming they have not got the permaban) within a reasonable time limit, provision should be made for the community to be handed over to the previous maintainer's new account.

The members can ask for a new maintainer to be appointed by abuse http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=221
