Runyan Lake Inc. Bylaws

 

Runyan Lake Inc. (RLI) is a Summer Resort Corporation, authorized and empowered by Michigan Public Act 137 of 1929, and Michigan Public Act 44 of 2006.  RLI was issued a corporation charter by the state of Michigan on November 10, 1950, and its Bylaws are enforceable as set forth in the aforementioned Michigan Public Acts, as demonstrated by Michigan court decisions and Michigan legislative amendments.

The current RLI Bylaws were most recently amended by vote of the General Membership on 8/30/2019, consistent with the proposals below

 

 

Background

 

In 2006 the RLI Board of Trustees proposed various revisions to the Runyan Lake Inc. bylaws to bring them up to date and eliminate inconsistencies.

 

The proposed changes were reviewed during the Spring 2007 General Membership Meeting for feedback.  Full details of all the proposed changes were made available to all members prior to the Fall 2007 General Membership Meeting, and were presented at the meeting and approved by the Membership with minor changes.

 

Additional amendment proposals have been presented during subsequent General Membership Meetings as set forth in the bylaws.

 

Copies of the updated bylaws are distributed to all members whenever changes are approved, and are provided to property sellers and new property owners.  If you need additional electronic or hard copies, please contact us at RunyanLakeInc@aol.com.

Amendments since 2007 included:

  • Revisions as needed to accommodate properties being developed within RLI described territory that do not have any access to Runyan Lake – this is driven by the new Runyan Lake East site condominium development that includes such properties.

  • Making descriptions consistent throughout the text for meetings, voting majorities, members, and other grammatical errors.

  • Removal of the language referring to the special assessment for the boat ramp, now completed.

  • Requiring nominations for trustees to be submitted sufficiently ahead of the Fall General Meeting for proxy voting to be a practicable option.

  • Relaxing various items of text so that items voted annually do not require amendments to the bylaws to be sent out annually.

  • Bylaws were further amended September 2010, to comply with Attorney General Opinion 7230.

  • Bylaws were further amended September 2011, to correct the recitals to reflect the articles of incorporation on file with the State of Michigan, to amend the methods by which financial audits are accomplished, and to update the listing of trustees to reflect elections and appointments for Fall 2011 thru Fall 2012 (Attachment A).

  • Bylaws were further amended September 2015, to include a late fee if annual dues are not paid by April 1st, and to update the listing of trustees to reflect elections and appointments for Fall 2015 thru Fall 2016 (Attachment A).

  • Bylaws were further amended August 2018. Section 2.05.e was amended to clearly state the RLI Board has the authority to act on behalf of the Association and its Membership as the local governmental representative of the Association and its Membership for certain purposes. 

  • Bylaws were further amended August 2019. Section 2.01 was amended to further require trustees be in good standing with any Runyan Lake neighborhood associations they reside in.
