§20104 Governing Body

Summary

Makes the board of governors the corporation’s leaders and gives them control of the group’s policies, programs, and money when the members are not meeting. How many governors there are, how they are chosen, how vacancies are filled, and how long they serve are decided by the bylaws, but the board must have at least 15 members. The board may create committees and give them powers in the bylaws or by board decision, including all the board’s powers. Requires specific officers: a president, one or more vice presidents as the bylaws allow, a secretary, a treasurer, assistant secretaries and assistant treasurers, and any other officers named in the bylaws. The bylaws also set how officers are elected, how long they serve, and what their duties are.
