procedures.<br />
Article 17 of the LMA Constitution states that it, “may be<br />
amended at any meeting of the Association by a vote<br />
of at least two-thirds of the municipal corporations<br />
present, provided such amendment<br />
has been submitted in writing to the Executive<br />
Director at least thirty (30) days<br />
prior to the date of the meeting.”<br />
