HB05431

An Act Concerning Cooperative Corporations.

Complete·5/26/26

Connecticut HB05431 revises laws governing cooperative corporations, including membership, voting, and profit distribution.

Connecticut HB05431 modifies the legal framework for cooperative corporations. It allows members present at a meeting, either in person or by proxy, to form a quorum for voting on matters. Directors are elected by a plurality of votes cast by members present at a meeting where a quorum exists. The bill also specifies that approval by ballot for actions other than director elections requires a quorum and a majority of votes cast. Shareholders can only join with the directors' consent.
