NRS116B.545. Quorum.  


Latest version.
  •       1.  Except as otherwise provided in this section and NRS 116B.445, and except when the governing documents provide otherwise, a quorum is present throughout any meeting of the association if the number of members of the association who are present in person or by proxy at the beginning of the meeting equals or exceeds 20 percent of the total number of voting members of the association.

          2.  If the governing documents of an association contain a quorum requirement for a meeting of the association that is greater than the 20 percent required by subsection 1 and, after proper notice has been given for a meeting, the members of the association who are present in person or by proxy at the meeting are unable to hold the meeting because a quorum is not present at the beginning of the meeting, the members who are present in person at the meeting may adjourn the meeting to a time that is not less than 48 hours or more than 30 days after the date of the meeting. At the subsequent meeting:

          (a) A quorum shall be deemed to be present if the number of members of the association who are present in person or by proxy at the beginning of the subsequent meeting equals or exceeds 20 percent of the total number of voting members of the association; and

          (b) If such a quorum is deemed to be present but the actual number of members who are present in person or by proxy at the beginning of the subsequent meeting is less than the number of members who are required for a quorum under the governing documents, the members who are present in person or by proxy at the subsequent meeting may take action only on those matters that were included as items on the agenda of the original meeting.

    Ê The provisions of this subsection do not change the actual number of votes that are required under the governing documents for taking action on any particular matter.

          3.  Unless the governing documents specify a larger percentage, a quorum is deemed present throughout any meeting of the executive board if persons entitled to cast 50 percent of the votes on that board are present at the beginning of the meeting.
