§ 6.1-225.16. Amendments to articles of incorporation and bylaws
The articles of incorporation or the bylaws may be amended as provided in the articles and bylaws, as the case may be, subject to §§ 13.1-886, 13.1-892, and 13.1-893. Amendments to the articles of incorporation shall be accomplished as provided in §§ 13.1-888 and 13.1-889. Proposed amendments to bylaws shall be submitted to the Commissioner, who shall approve or disapprove proposed amendments within thirty days. A bylaw amendment shall be effective upon its approval by the Commissioner. However, no amendment to the articles of incorporation or bylaws that would expand the field of membership of a credit union shall be effective until such amendment has been approved by the Commissioner. When any such change in bylaws or articles of incorporation is proposed, the Commissioner may extend the period for approval as he may deem necessary for as much as an additional thirty days.
