§ 2792.17. Reasonable Arrangements--Members' Meetings.
(a) Regular meetings of members of the Association shall be held not less frequently than once each calendar year at a time and place prescribed by the Bylaws. The first meeting of the Association, whether a regular or special meeting, shall be held within 45 days after the closing of the sale of the subdivision interest which represents the 51st percentile interest authorized for sale under the first public report for the subdivision, provided that public report authorizes the sale of 50 subdivision interests or more in the subdivision. However, but in no event shall the meeting be held later than six months after the closing of the sale of the first subdivision interest without regard to the number of subdivision interests authorized for sale in the first public report.
(b) Meetings of Association members shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 1363 of the Civil Code.
(c) A special meeting of the members of the Association shall be promptly scheduled by the governing body in response to:
(1) The vote of the governing body itself.
(2) Written request for a special meeting signed by members representing at least 5% of the total voting power of the Association.
(d) Written notice of regular and special meetings shall be given to members by the governing body by any means which is appropriate given the physical setup of the subdivision. This notice shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 90 days before the date of any meeting at which members are required or permitted to take any action. The notice shall specify the place, day and hour of the meeting and the matters the governing body intends to present for action by the members. Except as otherwise provided by law, any proper matter may be presented at the meeting for action.
(e)(1) Except as provided in Sections 2792.16(d) and (e)(1), a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of members of the Association through presence in person or by proxy shall be established at a percentage of not less than 25% and not more than 66 2/3% of the total voting power of the Association. Within these percentage limits, the quorum requirements for members' meetings shall be suited to such factors as the proposed physical layout of the subdivision, the contemplated number of owners of subdivision interests and the nature and extent of the common areas, facilities and services.
(2) In the absence of a quorum at a members' meeting a majority of those present in person or by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another time, but may not transact any other business. An adjournment for lack of a quorum by those in attendance shall be to a date not less than five days and not more than 30 days from the original meeting date. The quorum for an adjourned meeting may be set by the governing instruments at a percentage less than that prescribed for the regular meeting, but it shall not be less than 25 percent of the total voting power of the Association. If a time and place for the adjourned meeting is not fixed by those in attendance at the original meeting or if for any reason a new date is fixed for the adjourned meeting after adjournment, notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting shall be given to members in the manner prescribed for regular meetings.
(f) Any action which may be taken by the vote of members at a regular or special meeting, except the election of governing body members where cumulative voting is a requirement, may be taken without a meeting if done in compliance with the provisions of Section 7513 of the Corporations Code.
(g) Any form of proxy or written ballot distributed by any person to the membership of the Association shall afford the opportunity to specify a choice between approval and disapproval of each matter or group of matters to be acted upon, except it shall not be mandatory that a candidate for election to the governing body be named in the proxy or written ballot. The proxy or written ballot shall provide that, where the member specifies a choice, the vote shall be cast in accordance with that choice. The proxy shall also identify the person or persons authorized to exercise the proxy and the length of time it will be valid.
