2/3 vote to amend a by-law when not specifically stated in the by-laws

Recommended Posts

The current by-law for amending a by-law of our non-profit corporation states by  majority vote.  A proposal to amend this to state by 2/3 vote at the annual or special called meeting quoting Robert's Rules and section 615 of NYS non-profit laws was not passed because the majority of the Directors and the present voting members believe the simple majority is the way to get things done.

 

Is there any other way to change this to protect the minority of our corporation which is 49 owner/members total?

What do the Directors have to do with it?
