sec.17 Counting proxies for quorum
In deciding whether a quorum is present at a meeting of the land trust, an individual attending the meeting as a proxy is counted. However, if a person has appointed more than 1 proxy for a particular meeting, only 1 of the proxies is counted. If an individual is attending a particular meeting both as a member of the land trust and as a proxy for 1 or more persons, the individual is counted only twice. If an individual who is not a member of the land trust is attending a particular meeting as a proxy for 1 or more persons, the individual is counted only once.
