LLCs are required to have an operating agreement, which is a document that sets out the rules and procedures for running the company.  The operating agreement can be very flexible and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of the company and its members.  LLCs are not required to hold regular meetings or keep minutes, although it is generally a good practice to do so.  LLCs can have one or more managers, who are responsible for the day-to-day operations of the company. The managers of an LLC can be members or non-members, and can be appointed or elected by the members. LLCs are required to file an annual report with the state, which typically includes information about the company's ownership and management. LLCs are not required to have a board of directors, although some larger LLCs may choose to have one.

 

Chapter 34 Article 3 of the New York Limited Liability Company Law outlines the provisions related to the management and operation of LLCs in New York. It covers the rights and duties of members and managers, including their authority to manage the company and make decisions on its behalf. The article also discusses the procedures for conducting meetings, voting, and record-keeping, as well as the liability of members and managers for the company's obligations and debts. Additionally, it covers the transferability of membership interests and the dissolution and winding up of the LLC.
