Single-member LLCs do not need resolutions, but they can still come in handy in certain situations, like if the company must defend itself in court. Documenting changes or actions not covered in the original bylaws or articles of incorporation can help an LLC protect itself from lawsuits or judicial investigations.
LLC resolutions should be signed by all members or authorized representatives of the LLC who are involved in the decision or action being documented in the resolution.
Most LLC Resolutions include the following sections: Date, time, and place of the meeting. Owners or members present. The nature of business or resolution to discuss, including members added or removed, loans made, new contracts written, or changes in business scope or method.
The law does not require an LLC Resolution to be notarized or witnessed by any third parties. In concept, there could be a requirement within a certain limited liability company which does require it – but that would be uncommon.

A corporate resolution document does not need to be notarized, although if it involves other transactions then those might have to be notarized. Once the document has been signed off and dated by the chairperson, vice-chairperson, corporate treasurer, and secretary, it becomes a binding document.
As mentioned, any LLC member can propose a resolution, but all members have to vote on it. The majority of LLC members must vote in favor of the resolution to pass it, but every LLC can have its own voting rules. For example, some LLCs may assign different values to different member votes.
Voting Resolutions: Voting resolutions are used to make important decisions in the LLC. Voting resolutions require the approval of a certain number of members for the resolution to pass. Consent Resolutions: Consent resolutions are used when all members of the LLC agree to a certain action or decision.
