If a Unit is owned jointly by a husband and wife, the following provisions shall apply:

(i)      They may, but shall not be required to, designate a voting member;

(ii)      If they do not designate a voting member, and if both are present at a meeting and are unable to concur in a decision upon any subject requiring a vote, they shall lose their right to vote on that subject at that meeting; or

(iii) Where they do not designate a voting member and only one is present at a meeting, the person present may cast a vote, as though he or she were the sole owner of said Unit and without establishing the concurrence of the absent spouse.                                           å

 

3.10  A quorum at either a special meeting or the annual meeting where no Community Association has been formed, shall be the Owners of Units within the Community or authorized representatives thereof holding at least 20% of the votes entitled to be cast at such meeting by person or by proxy.
