17-6805. Same; nonstock corporations; procedure. (a) Whenever it shall be desired to dissolve any corporation having no capital stock, the governing body shall perform all the acts necessary for dissolution which are required by K.S.A. 17-6804, and amendments thereto, to be performed by the board of directors of a corporation having capital stock. If the members of a corporation having no capital stock are entitled to vote for the election of members of its governing body, they shall perform all the acts necessary for dissolution which are required by K.S.A. 17-6804, and amendments thereto, to be performed by the stockholders of a corporation having capital stock. If there is no member entitled to vote on such dissolution, the dissolution of the corporation shall be authorized at a meeting of the governing body, upon the adoption of a resolution to dissolve by the vote of a majority of members of its governing body then in office. In all other respects, the method and proceedings for the dissolution of a corporation having no capital stock shall conform as nearly as may be possible to the proceedings prescribed by K.S.A. 17-6804, and amendments thereto, for the dissolution of corporations having capital stock.
