Official statutory text

In its by-laws each association shall provide for one or more regular meetings annually. The board of directors shall have the right to call a special meeting at any time, and ten per cent of the members or stockholders may file a petition stating the specific business to be brought before the association and demand a special meeting at any time; the meeting shall thereupon be called by the directors. Notice of all meetings, together with a statement of the purpose thereof, shall be mailed to each member at least five days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that the by-laws may require instead that such notices may be given by publication in a newspaper of general circulation, published at the principal place of business of the association.
