Plain-English summary

Requires at least one association meeting each year, sets who may call special meetings and the 10-to-60-day notice rule and its contents, requires regular opportunities for lot owners to address the executive board, and applies Robert's Rules of Order unless the bylaws provide otherwise.

Not legal advice. Statute reference is for education only — confirm citations on official sources and consult a North Carolina attorney familiar with community associations.
