FAQ

Yes, a proxy can be appointed for a board meeting within a nonprofit corporation. This allows for representation and ensures that the interests of all members are voiced, even if some cannot attend. To do this effectively, members should reference the guidelines in the Montana Members General Proxy For Meetings of the Members of a Nonprofit Corporation. This feature ensures that decision-making processes remain inclusive and collaborative.

A: The short answer to your question is that members of the board of directors cannot use proxies to vote at board meetings when the director is not in attendance at the meeting. However, unit owners can use proxies to participate at membership meetings they do not physically attend.

Two or more offices may be held by the same individual, except the president may not also serve as secretary or treasurer.

There is no specific law precluding a Board member from granting a proxy to a third party to appear at a Board meeting in place of such Board member. However, it is basic general corporate law that a Board member cannot give a proxy to someone to appear and vote in his place at a meeting.

Can the same person be the President, Secretary and Treasurer of a corporation? Yes. A single individual may simultaneously serve as President, Secretary and Treasurer. This is common in small corporations.

Yes and no. In most states it is legal for executive directors, chief executive officers, or other paid staff to serve on their organizations' governing boards. But it is not considered a good practice, because it is a natural conflict of interest for executives to serve equally on the entity that supervises them.

Under the Code, each nonprofit corporation shall have a board of directors and each director shall have one vote on each matter presented to the board of directors for action. However, a director shall not vote by proxy.

In all probability, no. Unless your state nonprofit corporation law provides specific statutory authority for proxy voting by directors (and only a few provide some limited authority to do so), the general rule is that directors may not vote by proxy.

A nonprofit can have a president/CEO and an executive director if the organization maintains a specific structure. For example: President/CEO who has full authority for operations.

Unless otherwise prohibited by the bylaws, a person can usually hold more than one office in a nonprofit organization. It is not unusual in a small organization for the same person to serve as both secretary and treasurer, for example.
