Board Voting by Email

Hi Claudia,

There seem to be no provisions in Alabama law that expressly prohibit email voting. However, it may be wise to review the governing documents to verify whether or not board members are allowed to conduct business or cast votes via email. It may also be a good idea to review what constitutes a quorum for meetings, as it typically mandates the physical presence of the board member or their proxy. If there are no provisions in the governing documents regarding this, the community may opt to amend them to specify how board members can take action and whether or not email voting should be allowed. For further guidance, kindly consult a lawyer.
