§1141.27. Quorum

            A. Unless the bylaws provide otherwise, a quorum is present throughout any meeting of the association if lot owners holding twenty percent of the voting interest in the association are present in person or by proxy at the beginning of the meeting, have cast absentee ballots that were solicited in accordance with R.S. 9:1141.28(D)(3) and delivered to the secretary in a timely manner, or are present by any combination thereof.

            B. Voting interest allocated to lots owned by the association shall be counted toward a quorum.

            C. Unless this Part or the community documents specify a greater number, a quorum of the board of directors is present for purposes of determining the validity of any action taken at a meeting if individuals entitled to cast a majority of the votes on that board are present at the time a vote regarding that action is taken. If a quorum is present when a vote is taken, the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present is the act of the board of directors unless a greater vote is required by this Part or the community documents.

            D. Notwithstanding any other Subsection of this Section and provided that notice is given as required by R.S. 9:1141.38, in the event of an emergency, a quorum is present if lot owners holding at least ten percent of the voting interest are present in person, by proxy, or by electronic means.
