Action without meeting

Planned Communities & Condominiums · Text verified 2026-07-25

In plain English: Unless the articles or bylaws provide otherwise, the board may act without holding a meeting only if all directors take the action, evidenced by written consents signed by every director and kept in the corporate records. Such an action takes effect when the last director signs, unless the consent states a different date, and it has the same effect as a vote taken at a meeting. A director may revoke their consent by delivering a signed revocation before the last director signs, and consents may be signed electronically.
