Sec. 1. A Governor or a committee appointed by the Board may propose amendments to these By-Laws. Any 25 members of the Corporation by petition signed by such members may propose amendments to these By-Laws. Every proposed amendment shall be presented in writing to the Board, and a record shall be kept thereof. The Board may adopt any proposed amendment to these By-Laws by affirmative vote of a majority of the Governors then in office. The Board, upon adoption of any such amendment to these By-Laws, except as to spelling or numbering corrections or as otherwise provided in these By-Laws, shall forthwith cause a copy to be sent to and voted upon by each member of the Corporation. If such amendment to these By-Laws is approved by a majority of the members voting within 30 days after the date of submission to the membership, and is approved by the Commission as provided in the Act, it shall become effective as of such date as the Board may prescribe.
