When more than one (1) person holds an interest in a Lot, all persons holding a fee interest shall be Members. The foregoing is not intended to include persons or entities holding an interest merely as security for the performance of an obligation. Membership shall be appurtenant to and may not be separated from ownership of any Lot which is subject to the Association's Governing Documents. Ownership of a Lot shall be the sole qualification for membership.
3.2 Section Voting Rights. There shall be one (1) vote for each Lot. Fractional voting is prohibited. Cumulative voting is also prohibited.
3.3 Section Suspension of Voting Rights. During any period in which a Member shall be in default in the payment of any Common Expense Assessment, including interest, late fees, attorney fees and costs, levied by the Association, the voting rights of such member shall be deemed suspended by the Board of Directors not in good standing, without notice or hearing, until such assessment has been paid.

Any member may delegate his rights of enjoyment of the common area to his family members, guests, tenants, and invitees who reside on the property.
4ARTICLE . MEETINGS OF MEMBERS
4.1 Section Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of the Members shall be held during each of the Association's fiscal years, at such time of the year and date as determined by the Board and set forth in the notice of the meeting. At these meetings, the Directors shall be elected by the Members, in accordance with the provisions of these Bylaws, the Declaration and Articles of Incorporation, or as otherwise determined by the Members present in person at the meeting. The Members may transact other business as may properly come before them at these meetings. Failure to hold an annual meeting shall not be considered a forfeiture or dissolution of the Association.
4.2 Section Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Association may be called by the President, by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or by a petition signed by Owners comprising twenty-five percent (25%) of the votes in the Association.
4.3 Section Budgets and Budget Meeting.
(a) Meetings of Unit Owners to consider proposed budgets shall be called in accordance with the Declaration and CCIOA, and all expenses expressly declared or allowed to be common expenses by the Declaration, or the Bylaws of the Association, shall be assessed as common expenses as provided in the Declaration. The budget process provided for in the Declaration, and under CCIOA, allows the entire membership to veto a budget proposed for the Park Forest Community if at least a majority of the votes of the membership vote against the budget as proposed by the Executive Board.
(b) The budget process of the Association allows the entire membership to veto a budget adopted by the Executive Board by at least thirty percent (30%) of the Owners. The budget process to be followed is as follows: The Executive Board of the Association is to prepare and preliminarily approve a proposed budget for the entire community at least annually. Then, within thirty (30) days after the Executive Board's adoption of a proposed budget for the community or a class of Owners, the Executive Board must mail or deliver a summary of that proposed budget to the Owners subject to it and set a date for a special or annual meeting of the Owners to consider ratification of the proposed budget. This budget meeting can be combined with the annual meeting. Notice for the meeting at which a proposed budget will be considered must be mailed not less than fourteen (14) days nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting. At the meeting, unless the proposed budget is vetoed by Owners by at least a thirty percent (30%) vote, the proposed budget is ratified and becomes approved. State law does not require that a quorum of owners be present at the meeting, if the meeting is just a budget meeting, but does require a quorum if the meeting is also an annual meeting. In the event a proposed budget is rejected by the applicable vote, the budget last ratified by the Association is continued until such time as the Association ratifies a subsequent budget proposed by the Executive Board.

4.4 Section Notice of Meetings. Written notice of each meeting of Members shall be given by, or at the direction of, the Secretary or person authorized to call the meeting, by mailing a copy of such notice, postage prepaid, at least ten (10) days before, but not more than fifty (50) days before such meeting, or by any other means permitted by the Colorado Revised Nonprofit Corporation Act, including, but not limited to, personal delivery, facsimile, and e-mail delivery, to each Member entitled to vote, addressed to the Member's address last appearing on the books of the Association, or supplied by such Member to the Association for the purpose of notice. Such notice shall specify the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose of the meeting. No matters shall be heard nor action adopted at a special meeting except as stated or allowed in the notice.
4.5 Section Place of Meetings. Meetings of the Members shall be held in the Park Forest Community, or in any other location in the Denver metropolitan area, and may be adjourned to a suitable place convenient to the Members, as may be designated by the Board or the President.
4.6 Section Quorum of Members. The presence of ten percent (10%) of the Members eligible to vote at any meeting, in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for any action except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, the Declaration, and these Bylaws. If the required quorum is not present, the Members who are present shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time without notice other than announcement at the meeting to a later date until a quorum shall be present or represented.
4.7 Section Voting. At all meetings of Members, each Member eligible to vote may vote in person or by proxy. If only one of several Owners of a Lot is present at a meeting of the Association, the Owner present is entitled to cast the vote allocated to such Lot. If more than one of the Owners is present, the vote allocated to the Lot may be cast only in accordance with the agreement of a majority of those Owners. Majority agreement exists if any one of the Owners casts the vote allocated to the Lot without protest being made promptly to the person presiding over the meeting by another Owner of the Lot. The vote of a corporation or business trust may be cast by any officer of that corporation or business trust in the absence of express notice of the designation of a specific person by the Board of Directors or bylaws of the owning corporation or business trust. The vote of a partnership may be cast by any general partner of the owning partnership in the absence of express notice of the designation of a specific person by the owning partnership. The moderator of the meeting may require reasonable evidence that a person voting on behalf of a corporation, partnership or business trust Owner is qualified to vote. Votes allocated to Lots owned by the Association may not be cast. Fractional voting is not permitted. Cumulative voting is also prohibited.
4.8 Section Proxies for Members Meetings. The vote allocated to a Lot may be cast under a proxy duly executed by an Owner. All proxies shall be in writing and filed with the Secretary or designee of the Association. If a Lot is owned by more than one person, each Owner of the Lot may vote or register protest to the casting of the vote by the other Owners of the Lot through a duly executed proxy. An Owner may revoke a proxy given under this section by actual notice of revocation to the person presiding over a meeting of the Association. A proxy is void if it is not dated. A proxy terminates eleven (11) months after its date, unless it specifies a shorter term or a specific purpose, or upon sale of the Lot for which the proxy was issued.
4.9 Section Majority Vote. The vote of more than fifty-one percent (51%) of Members represented at a meeting at which at least a quorum is present shall constitute a majority and shall be binding upon all Owners for all purposes except where a higher percentage vote is required in the Declaration, these Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or by law.

4.10 Section Order of Business and Rules at Meeting. The Board may establish the order of business and prescribe reasonable rules for the conduct of all meetings of the Board or Members.

The Board of Directors may decide that voting of the Members on any matter required or permitted by the statutes of Colorado, the Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation, or these Bylaws shall be by mail instead of at a meeting. In case of a vote by mail, the Secretary shall mail written notice to all Members at each Member's address as it appears in the records of the Association. The notice shall include: (i) a proposed written resolution setting forth a description of the proposed action, (ii) a statement that Members are entitled to vote by mail for or against such proposal, and (iii) a date at least thirty (30) days after the date such notice shall have been given on or before which all votes must be received at the office of the Association at the address designated in the notice. Voting by mail shall be acceptable in all instances in the Declaration, Articles or these Bylaws requiring the vote of Members at a meeting, except the election of Directors.
The Board of Directors may conduct elections of Directors by mail, or electronic means, in its sole discretion and pursuant to procedures adopted by it; provided however, that any procedures adopted shall provide for notice to members of the opportunity to run for a vacant position and/or nominate any member of the Association for a vacant position, subject to the nominated Member's consent.

The Association shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Association) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Director, Officer, committee member or volunteer of the Association, who is or was serving at the request of the Association in such capacity, against expenses (including expert witness fees, attorneys' fees and costs) judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner which such individual reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Association, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Determination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Association and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Section Actions By Or In The Right of The Association. The Association shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Association to procure judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, Officer, committee member, or volunteer of the Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association in such capacity, against expenses (including expert witness fees, attorneys' fees and costs) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Association; but no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty in the Association unless, and to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses if such court deems proper.
12.3 Section Successful on the Merits. To the extent that a Director, manager, Officer, committee member, volunteer, project manager, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Association has been wholly successful on the merits in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs 12.1 or 12.2 of this Article 12, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including expert witness fees, attorneys' fees and costs) actually and reasonably incurred him or her in connection therewith.
12.4 Section Determination Required. Any indemnification under paragraphs 12.1 or 12.2 of this Article 12 (unless ordered by a court) and as distinguished from paragraph 12.3 of this Article 12, shall be made by the Association only as authorized by the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Director, Officer, committee member or volunteer is proper in the circumstances because such individual has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs 12.1 or 12.2 above.
