Quorum requirements
- Statute:
- South Carolina §33-31-722 · Chapter NP (South Carolina Nonprofit Corporation Act (S.C. Code Title 33 Ch. 31))
- Topic:
- Meetings & Voting · Member quorum
- Applies to:
- Nonprofit associations
Unless the articles or bylaws require a greater or lesser number, a members' quorum is 10 percent of the votes entitled to be cast. A horizontal property regime's bylaws must require at least 51 percent of basic value to adopt decisions (§27-31-160(b)), so the regime number overlays this 10 percent default.
