Operating Rules
Cal. CIV § 4365
California Statutes
(
a) Members of an association owning percent or more of the separate interests may call a special vote of the members to reverse a rule change. (
b) A special vote of the members may be called by delivering a written request to the association. Not less than days nor more than days after receipt of a proper request, the association shall hold a vote of the members on whether to reverse the rule change, pursuant to
Article 4 (commencing with
Section 5100) of
Chapter 6. The written request may not be delivered more than days after the association gives general notice of the rule change, pursuant to
Section 4045. (
c) For the purposes of
Section of this code and
Section of the Corporations Code, collection of signatures to call a special vote under this
section is a purpose reasonably related to the interests of the members of the association. A member request to copy or inspect the membership list solely for that purpose may not be denied on the grounds that the purpose is not reasonably related to the member’s interests as a member. (
d) The rule change may be reversed by the affirmative vote of a majority of a quorum of the members, pursuant to
Section 4070, or if the declaration or bylaws require a greater percentage, by the affirmative vote of the percentage required. (
e) Unless otherwise provided in the declaration or bylaws, for the purposes of this section, a member may cast one vote per separate interest owned. (
f) A rule change reversed under this
section may not be readopted for one year after the date of the vote reversing the rule change. Nothing in this
section precludes the board from adopting a different rule on the same subject as the rule change that has been reversed. (
g) As soon as possible after the close of voting, but not more than days after the close of voting, the board shall provide general notice pursuant to
Section of the results of the member vote. (
h) This
section does not apply to an emergency rule change made under subdivision (
d) of
