2006 New York Code - Meetings Of Trustees.

 
    §   328.  Meetings  of  trustees.  Meetings  of  the  trustees  of  an
  incorporated United Methodist church may be held at stated intervals  or
  may  be  called  by  giving  at  least  twenty-four hours notice thereof
  personally or by mail to all trustees and such meeting may be called and
  such notice given by the pastor, the secretary of the board of trustees,
  or by any two of the trustees, but  by  the  unanimous  consent  of  the
  trustees  a  meeting  may  be held without previous notice thereof. Some
  member of the board of  trustees  elected  for  that  purpose  shall  be
  president  or  chairman,  or  the  pastor  may  preside  without vote. A
  majority of the whole number of trustees shall constitute a  quorum  for
  the transaction of business at any meeting lawfully convened. In case of
  a  tie  vote at a meeting of the trustees, the presiding officer of such
  meeting, if he be a trustee, shall, notwithstanding he has  voted  once,
  have  an  additional  casting  vote, or, if the presiding officer be the
  pastor, the secretary of the board shall  have  the  additional  casting
  vote.
