In plain English: When the association is organized, it must adopt bylaws covering how it is run, including the number of directors, the officers, how directors and officers are elected, removed, and fill vacancies, which powers can be delegated to a manager, and how the bylaws themselves are amended. Beyond those required items, the bylaws may address other matters the association finds necessary. The bylaws are the association's internal operating rules.
