§236.5. Approval by qualified voters
A. The plan of reorganization shall be approved at a meeting convened for that purpose by a vote of not less than two-thirds of the qualified voters of the reorganizing mutual entitled to vote on matters and present or represented by special ballot or special proxy.
B. The meeting of qualified voters to consider the plan of reorganization shall occur after the public hearing before the commissioner, and the closing of the administrative record after the public hearing shall not occur until such time as it includes certification by the reorganizing mutual to the commissioner of the vote on the plan of reorganization by the qualified voters of the reorganizing mutual.
C. All qualified voters shall be given notice of their opportunity to vote on the plan of reorganization, which notice shall include a copy of the plan of reorganization or a summary thereof and which shall be in a form that the commissioner has determined is adequate and may be provided to qualified voters. The notice may be combined with notice of the public hearing. The notice shall be mailed, or provided by some other method or methods as may be approved by the commissioner, not less than thirty days before the date of the meeting of qualified voters to vote on the plan of reorganization. If the reorganizing mutual complies substantially and in good faith with the notice requirements of this Section, the failure of any person to actually receive any required notice will not impair the validity of any action taken under this Subpart.
D. A quorum for the meeting of qualified voters to consider the plan of reorganization shall consist of the qualified voters present or represented by special ballot or special proxy.
E. Voting, ballot, and proxy submission may take place electronically or telephonically consistent with the requirements of the Louisiana Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, R.S. 9:2601 et seq.
