An amendment of the articles which changes or deletes such a provision shall be authorized by the vote required to amend the articles pursuant to section 611, or by the same vote as would be required to take action under the provision, whichever is greater. The failure to include a provision of the kind described in this section in the articles shall not invalidate any bylaw or agreement which would otherwise be considered valid.","path":["MI Code","Chapter 450","Act Act-284-of-1972"],"source_url":"https://www.legislature.mi.gov/Laws/MCL?objectName=mcl-450-1455","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:31Z","sha256":"d946187f274d9d6d8587c79346becb385b13b8dfb4e93b1681cdd569e6e9aea7","source_id":"us-mi","stale":false,"prev":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-450.1451","next":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-450.1461"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
