A comment

1. This article completes the procedure for granting citizens and their associations land plots, the beginning of which is contained in Article 13 of the commented law. As we have already noted above, there are two options for the actions of the local government, which has collected applications from citizens for the provision of country, garden and garden land plots to them.

First, the organ local government can directly provide such plots himself (if he has such an opportunity, provided for by urban planning documentation, and citizens want to receive plots in the municipality where they live). Secondly, the local self-government body transfers the collected applications to another local self-government body, on the territory of which the land plots requested by citizens are located. Since this article mentions the land redistribution fund (and it arose in the 90s of the last century at the time of the reorganization of collective farms and state farms), therefore, the local government proposed by the legislator is located in rural areas.

The decision on whether there are suitable land plots on the territory of the municipality is contained in the territorial planning documents (territorial planning schemes for municipal districts and master plans for urban districts and settlements), as well as the Rules for Land Use and Development. In case of their absence, when making such a decision, officials of the local self-government body should be guided by the zoning schemes for the placement of horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations.

If there are no relevant land plots on the territory of the municipality, citizens are given a reasoned refusal. If such land plots are available, the procedure for selecting a land plot and preliminary approval of the location of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association of citizens begins.

2. The commented article specifies the procedure for selecting a land plot for construction and preliminary approval of the location of the facility, provided for in Article 31 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation. According to this article, citizens interested in providing a land plot for construction apply to the local government with an application for the choice of a land plot and preliminary approval of the location of the object. This application must indicate the purpose of the object, the proposed location of its location, the rationale for the approximate size of the land plot, the requested right to the land plot. The application may be accompanied by a feasibility study of the construction project or necessary calculations. The local self-government body, at the request of a citizen, ensures the selection of a site on the basis of state land cadastre documents and land management documents, taking into account environmental, urban planning and other conditions for the use of the relevant territory and subsoil within its boundaries by determining options for locating the facility and conducting approval procedures in cases provided for by federal laws, with relevant government bodies and local authorities, municipal organizations, informs the population about the possible or forthcoming provision of land plots for construction.

The results of the selection of a land plot are documented by an act on the selection of a land plot for construction. This act shall be accompanied by the draft boundaries of each land plot approved by the local self-government body in accordance with the possible options for their choice. The local self-government body makes a decision on preliminary approval of the location of the object, approving the act on the choice of a land plot in accordance with one of the options for its selection, or on refusal to place the object. A copy of the decision on the preliminary approval of the location of the object with the application of the draft boundaries of the land plot or on the refusal to place the object is issued to the applicant within seven days.

The decision on preliminary approval of the location of the facility and the project of the boundaries of the land plot are the basis for establishing, in accordance with the applications of citizens interested in providing a land plot for construction, and at their expense, the boundaries of such a land plot on the ground and its state cadastral registration in the manner established by federal laws . The local self-government body, on the basis of applications from a citizen interested in providing a land plot for construction, and the cadastral map (plan) of the land plot attached to it, within two weeks, makes a decision on the provision of a land plot for construction.

3. After the site for the location of the non-profit association is selected, its dimensions are determined (including the boundaries of the land plots of citizens and public lands) and personnel of its members, the next stage of the procedure under consideration begins - state registration of a non-profit association, carried out by the Federal Registration Service (if it is a partnership or partnership) or the Federal Tax Service (if it is a cooperative), followed by the provision of a land plot to the non-profit association free of charge.

Clause 4 of the commented article does not disclose on what particular right a land plot should be provided to a non-profit association. According to the entire logic of the commented law, such a title should be gratuitous fixed-term use. Meanwhile, Article 24 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation names an exhaustive (closed) list of grounds for granting land plots to citizens and legal entities from state or municipal property on the right of gratuitous fixed-term use. Since the commented law cannot contradict the Land Code of the Russian Federation, it should be concluded that paragraph 4 of the commented article refers to a different type of land rights. Such an option, in our opinion, can only be a short-term lease, and the mention of the free provision of land means that, unlike other cases of land plots being leased for construction (Articles 30.1 and 30.2 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation), in our case, bidding is not are held, and no fee is charged for providing a site to a non-profit association.

4. After the provision of a land plot to a non-profit association, the procedure for approving the project of the organization and development of its territory begins and the transfer of this project to the area, after which the members of the horticultural, horticultural or summer cottage non-profit association are granted land plots for ownership. Note that when transferring for a fee a land plot is initially provided to the joint ownership of the members of such an association, with subsequent provision of land plots to the ownership of each member of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association. Therefore, in the case free granting a land plot (for example, to persons for whom special benefits are provided), the land plot is provided directly to the property, bypassing the stage of joint ownership with members of a non-profit association.

This rule of the commented article leads immediately to two questions. Firstly, what is the point in fixing a different procedure for providing a land plot for a fee and free of charge, and why the stage of joint ownership of land by members of a non-profit association is needed at all. Secondly, land plots for any construction (whether individual housing or summer cottage construction) in accordance with the Land Code of the Russian Federation are provided for ownership at auctions. The commented law provides for the provision of land plots for construction without bidding for a fee, the procedure for calculating which is not disclosed in the law itself. It follows that the procedure provided for in paragraph 4 of the commented article in relation to collective gardening (for purposes not related to construction) complies with the requirements of the Land Code of the Russian Federation, and in relation to the provision of land plots for construction (horticulture, summer cottages) contradicts the Land Code of the Russian Federation.

5. A land plot for general use is transferred to the ownership of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association as legal entity. At the same time, the commented article provides for the possibility of the general meeting making a decision on assigning all land plots to a non-profit association as a legal entity. In this case, citizens are not the owners of their dacha, garden and garden plots of land, and in most legal relations (land, tax, and others), their interests will be represented by a legal entity. Accordingly, citizens will not be able to sell, donate, or inherit their land, since they will only have the right to claim against the non-profit association for compensation for its value. This model is not beneficial to citizens - gardeners, gardeners and summer residents, and therefore is rarely used.

6. The procedure provided for by the commented article involves the creation of a dacha, garden or garden non-profit association on lands that are in state or municipal ownership, and does not apply to cases of creating such a non-profit association on lands that are privately owned by a citizen or legal entity. The latter procedure is very popular in practice, but not regulated by law. For example, many enterprising citizens are trying to buy large land plots from agricultural organizations in the suburbs of large cities, and form dacha cooperatives on these lands (for the benefits of this form of management, see the commentary of Article 1) or even dacha settlements. By itself, this model does not contradict current legislation, if in the course of its implementation the basic requirements of the law are observed, related to compliance with the procedure for changing the permitted use for such sites (their designated purpose does not formally change, since summer cottages agricultural products are also grown), as well as (if necessary) land categories in accordance with the requirements of the Law on the transfer of land from one category to another.

7. When applying the commented article in practice, various litigations often arise (see: Resolution of the Federal Arbitration Court of the West Siberian District dated 01.01.01 No. F04-4434 / 2007).

So, on the basis of the resolution of the head of the municipality of July 6, 2005, the dacha partnership was granted ownership of a land plot of 104,472 square meters for a fee. meters to accommodate a country house non-profit partnership. In pursuance of this resolution, the administration of the municipality and the dacha partnership concluded on July 10, 2005, a contract for the sale of a disputed land plot with a cadastral number. The dacha partnership applied to the registration service with a statement about state registration ownership of the land plot transferred under the contract of sale.

The registration service first informed the dacha partnership about the suspension of state registration of the transfer of ownership of the disputed land plot, and then about its decision to refuse state registration, indicating as the basis for refusal the non-compliance with the procedure for granting a land plot established by federal law"On the turnover of agricultural land"; no solution provided general meeting all members of the dacha partnership on assigning a land plot to a non-profit partnership as a legal entity of all land plots granted to it in accordance with the requirements of Article 21 of the Federal Law “On horticultural, gardening and dacha non-profit associations of citizens”; the dacha partnership did not comply with the limiting standards for the provision of land plots.

Finding the refusal to state registration of rights illegal, the dacha partnership filed a lawsuit with the arbitration court.

The court of first instance, refusing to satisfy the stated requirements, came to the conclusion that the refusal to state registration of ownership of land plots was legal and justified, arguing that the dacha partnership does not represent the decision of all partnership members to assign to a non-commercial partnership as a legal entity all granted him land in accordance with the requirements of Article. 21 of the Federal Law "On horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations of citizens".

The appellate instance, canceling the court’s decision and satisfying the stated requirements, proceeded from the fact that the decision to grant the dacha partnership a land plot immediately into the ownership, and not into the joint ownership of the members of the non-profit association, was the decision of the head of the municipality, and not the decision of the non-profit partnership; the contract for the purchase and sale of the land plot dated 01.01.01 was not disputed and was not recognized as an invalid transaction.

Meanwhile, the conclusion of the appellate instance cannot be recognized as complying with the requirements of the legislation.

Article 28 of the Federal Law “On Horticultural, Gardening and Dacha Non-Commercial Associations of Citizens” establishes the procedure for privatizing garden land plots, according to which only public lands, specific garden plots are subject to re-registration in the ownership of each of the members of the dacha partnership. At the same time, the legislation does not provide for the possibility of privatizing a land plot as a whole by registering the right of ownership only for a dacha partnership.

The argument of the dacha partnership regarding the observance of the procedure for acquiring a land plot cannot be taken into account. The minutes of the general meeting of participants in the dacha partnership dated June 6, 2005 No. 2 submitted to the case indicate that the decision to conclude a contract for the sale of a land plot and to take actions to register it was taken in the presence of three participants, while previously it was a decision was made to accept 122 people as members of the dacha partnership. The Protocol does not contain the procedure for acquiring ownership of a land plot, there are no statements from members of the dacha partnership indicating on what right each of them wants to acquire a land plot. The dacha partnership did not confirm that he had legal grounds for the acquisition of ownership of the dacha partnership as a legal entity of the entire land plot.

In view of the foregoing, the arbitration court rightfully refused to satisfy the stated requirements for the recognition of the refusal to state registration of rights to the land plot as illegal. Under such circumstances, the decision of the appellate court was set aside and the decision of the court of first instance was upheld.

Article 15Restrictions on the provision of garden, vegetable garden and summer cottage land plots

1. On the territory of the municipality, in accordance with the legislation, zones may be allocated in which garden, garden and dacha land plots are not provided or the rights to use them are limited (specially protected natural territories, territories with registered deposits of minerals, especially valuable agricultural lands, reserve territories for the development of urban and other settlements, territories with developed karst, landslide, mudflow and other natural processes that pose a threat to the life or health of citizens, a threat to the safety of their property).

2. Has expired.

A comment

1. The rule formulated in the commented article has been brought to its logical conclusion by urban planning legislation. According to Article 1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, zones with special conditions for the use of territories- security, sanitary protection zones, zones of protection of cultural heritage objects (monuments of history and culture) of peoples Russian Federation, water protection zones, zones of protection of drinking water sources, zones of protected objects, other zones established in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation. The boundaries of such zones are fixed in the territorial planning documents of the Russian Federation, its constituent entities and municipalities, as well as on the urban zoning map included integral part in the Rules of land use and development.

Thus, in the event that a municipality has town planning documentation provided for by the CradK of the Russian Federation, all zones with special conditions for the use of the territory are clearly fixed, as well as land areas that are provided in advance for provision to citizens for gardening, horticulture and dacha economy.

In the absence of such urban planning documentation, the local government in each specific case will determine the possible location of the land for gardening, horticulture and dacha farming, as well as a list of prohibitions and restrictions provided for by law and affecting the legal regime of these lands.

2. It should be noted that there are two options for restrictions on the provision of country, garden, orchard land plots. In the first case, land plots cannot under any circumstances be provided for use for this designated purpose (for example, in areas with developed karst, landslide, mudflow and other natural processes that pose a threat to the life or health of citizens, a threat to the safety of their property). Other grounds for such a ban are also legally allowed. Yes, in national parks it is forbidden to provide garden and summer cottages, since such activities, according to the legislator's intention, may harm the state of natural complexes.

In the second case, the provision is allowed, but citizens are warned that some of their rights to use the land are limited. The RF LC provides for the following restrictions on land rights:

1) special conditions land use and regime economic activity in security, sanitary protection zones;

A comment

1. State registration is the final stage in the formation of a legal entity, after which the data on such an organization are included in the unified state register of legal entities. State registration of dacha, garden and garden non-profit organizations is carried out by the Federal Registration Service, with the exception of dacha, garden and garden cooperatives, which are registered by the Federal Tax Service.

The wording of the commented article has undergone a number of changes: if earlier it contained norms fixing the procedure for registration, a list of documents submitted for registration, etc., then at present it is blanket in nature. This is due to the extension of state registration of horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations general order state registration of legal entities. In general, such unification of norms should be regarded as a positive trend. Thus, the period for registration actions has changed significantly: in contrast to the general procedure that establishes a five-day period for state registration, the previous version of the commented law provided that the state registration of a non-profit association must be carried out no later than thirty days after the submission of all documents necessary for registration.

2. The legal basis for the registration of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association is the Federal Law of August 8, 2001 "On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs".

The purpose of creating such non-profit associations is to meet the needs of citizens in the exercise of their rights to receive, own, use, dispose of garden, garden or summer cottages. Answering the question of what kind of needs, it would be appropriate to note that their range is a special sign of the purpose of creating horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations. Citizens in this case unite not only to satisfy material needs - the production of agricultural products for personal consumption, but also spiritual - leisure and health promotion during the joint development of the land.

The law defines the main forms of horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations, distinguishing between horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit partnerships, consumer cooperatives and non-profit partnerships.

The legislator listed only the general powers of such an association, which are basically vested in any legal entity. However, in our opinion, among these rights there is also an obligation - to answer for one's obligations with one's property. So, a horticultural (gardening, country) non-profit association is not only entitled, but in some cases obliged to do this. For example, in the case when an association assumes the obligation to pay for services under a civil law contract, it is obliged to pay off the person who provided such services to the association, and thus the obligation of the association to respond with its property arises.

General powers: (the ability to acquire and exercise property and non-property rights on one’s own behalf; raise borrowed funds; conclude contracts, which is regulated by the general norms of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation), procedural rights of horticultural associations: act as a plaintiff and defendant in court; apply to the court, arbitration court with applications for invalidation (in whole or in part) of acts of state authorities and local self-government or for violation by officials of the rights and legitimate interests of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association. These powers are regulated by the Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation and the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

A horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association, in accordance with civil law, has the right to create associations (unions) of horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit associations. This power is detailed in Art. 9 of the Law. The specified list of powers is open, and all listed rights can be supplemented or clarified in the charter of the association, if they do not contradict the legislation of the Russian Federation and the legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as the goals of the non-profit association.

4. Creation, reorganization and liquidation of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association

A non-profit organization can carry out entrepreneurial activity only insofar as it serves to achieve the goals for which it was created. Such activity is the profitable production of goods and services that meet the goals of creating a non-profit organization, as well as the acquisition and sale of securities, property and non-property rights, participation in business companies and participation in limited partnerships as a contributor. Don't forget that non-profit organization is an organization that does not have profit making as the main goal of its activities and does not distribute the profit received among the participants. That is, even if a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association, as a non-profit organization, carries out entrepreneurial activities that correspond to the goals for which it was created, the profit from this activity is distributed to the needs of the association or to a special fund.

A horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association as a legal entity is considered established from the moment of its state registration - making an appropriate entry in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (Clause 2, Article 51 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).

A horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association is recognized as a legal entity only when there is its property isolation. It involves independent participation in the economic turnover of a legal entity. A certain degree of property isolation serves as the basis for civil legal capacity and necessary precondition participation of the organization in property legal relations as a subject of civil rights and obligations. If organizational unity is necessary to unite many persons into one collective entity, separate property creates the material base for the activities of such an entity. Separation of property means the legal assignment of land plots, other movable and immovable property to the relevant non-profit association, which makes it possible to distinguish them from property owned by third parties - other subjects of law.

7) upon liquidation of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association, to receive the due share of common use property;

8) apply to the court to invalidate the decisions of the general meeting of members of the horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association or the meeting of authorized persons, as well as decisions of the board and other bodies of such an association that violate his rights and legitimate interests;

9) voluntarily withdraw from a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association with the simultaneous conclusion of an agreement with such an association on the procedure for use and operation engineering networks, roads and other common property;

10) carry out other actions not prohibited by law.

2. A member of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association must:

10) making decisions on the formation and use of the property of such an association, on the creation and development of infrastructure facilities, as well as establishing the size of trust funds and relevant contributions;

11) setting the amount of penalties for late payment of contributions, changing the terms for making contributions by low-income members of such an association;

12) approval of the income and expenditure estimates of such an association and the adoption of decisions on its implementation;

13) consideration of complaints against decisions and actions of members of the board, chairman of the board, members audit commission(auditor), members of the commission for monitoring compliance with the law, officials mutual lending fund and officials of the rental fund;

14) approval of the reports of the board, the audit commission (auditor), the commission for monitoring compliance with the law, the mutual lending fund, the rental fund;

15) encouragement of members of the board, the audit commission (auditor), the commission for monitoring compliance with the law, the mutual lending fund, the rental fund and members of such an association;

16) making a decision on the acquisition of a land plot related to common property in the ownership of such an association.

A comment

1. The article directly defines the competence and procedure for convening a general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association, the procedure for bringing the decisions of the meeting to the attention of the members of the association and establishes the right to appeal them to the court. You should immediately pay attention to the peculiarity of the division of powers of the governing bodies in the association. The law defines the exclusive competence of each body, without transferring any powers of the general meeting to the board or chairman of the board, as well as the powers of the board or its chairman to the general meeting, which ensures the rights of members of the association to participate in decision-making, management, etc.

One of the first exclusive powers of the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) is the introduction of amendments and additions to the charter of the association, the approval of the charter in a new edition, as well as the approval of the regulations of the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons), the board, the audit commission, the commission for monitoring compliance with the legislation, the internal the work schedule of the association, the rules for organizing and operating the representative offices of the association and the mutual lending fund, the rental fund created under it, the adoption or approval of other internal regulations of the association.

Decisions on amendments to the charter of such an association and additions to its charter or on approval of the charter in a new edition, exclusion from the membership of such an association, on its liquidation and (or) reorganization, appointment of a liquidation commission and on approval of the interim and final liquidation balance sheets are taken by the general meeting members of such an association (by a meeting of authorized persons) by a two-thirds majority.

The procedure for amending the charter is regulated by Chapter VI of the Federal Law of August 8, 2001 "On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs", effective from July 1, 2002. For state registration of changes made to the charter of the association, to the registering authority (and this is the territorial authority of the Federal tax service for cooperatives or the Federal Registration Service for partnerships) are submitted:

a) a signed application for state registration in the form approved by the Government of the Russian Federation. The application confirms that the changes made to the constituent documents of a legal entity comply with the requirements established by the legislation of the Russian Federation, that the information contained in these constituent documents and in the application is reliable and the procedure established by federal law for making a decision on making changes to the constituent documents of a legal entity is observed ;

b) a decision to amend the constituent documents of a legal entity;

c) changes made to the constituent documents of a legal entity;

To make changes to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities relating to information about a legal entity, but not related to making changes to the constituent documents of a legal entity, a signed application for making changes to the state register in the form approved by the Government of the Russian Federation is submitted to the registering authority. The application confirms that the changes being made comply with the requirements established by the legislation of the Russian Federation and the information contained in the application is reliable.

In addition to the adoption of regulations on the bodies, representative offices, funds of the association, the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) decides on the issues of their direct formation: determines the quantitative composition of the board, elects members of the board, chairman of the board, members of the audit commission, members of the commission for monitoring compliance with the law, resolves issues of early termination of their powers (with regard to the chairman of the board, the charter may provide otherwise), decides on the organization of representative offices, a mutual lending fund and a rental fund, on joining associations (unions) of horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit associations. The general meeting approves the reports of the elected bodies of the association, the mutual lending fund and the rental fund of the association, considers complaints against the decisions and actions of the elected bodies of the association and members of these bodies, officials of the mutual lending fund and officials of the rental fund, encourages members of the elected bodies of the association and ordinary members of the association .

The exclusive competence of the general meeting also includes issues of admission to membership of the association and exclusion from members, setting the amount of penalties for late payment of contributions, changing the terms for making contributions by low-income members of the association, considering complaints from members of the association and encouraging the most active members of the association.

Admission to membership is carried out by a general meeting of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association on the basis of an oral or written application of a citizen who has legal capacity and capacity, and if the charter does not establish Additional requirements to the candidates. Attention should be focused on the content of paragraph 4 of Art. 18 of the commented law, which reads: “the founders of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association are considered accepted as members of such an association from the moment of its state registration.” Thus, the exception on admission to membership by the general meeting applies to the founders of the association. A citizen is considered accepted or excluded from the membership of a non-profit association from the moment the relevant decision of the general meeting is made.

The General Meeting also resolves issues related to the formation and use of the property of the association, the creation and formation of infrastructure facilities, the establishment of the size of trust funds and relevant contributions, approves the income and expenditure estimate of the association and decisions on its implementation. A special authority is to make a decision on the acquisition of a land plot related to public property in the ownership of such an association. Such a decision must be drawn up in a protocol and attached to an agreement on the acquisition of ownership (purchase and sale) or use (lease) of a land plot. And if the chairman of the board, as a representative of the association, becomes a party to such a transaction without an appropriate protocol, his actions and the agreement can be challenged in court.

Only the general meeting has the right to make decisions on the reorganization and liquidation of the association, the appointment of a liquidation commission, and also to approve the interim and final liquidation balance sheets. This procedure will be discussed in more detail below.

Thus, the exclusive competence of the general meeting includes issues that in one way or another affect the rights, obligations, interests of all its members. By general rule issues not previously specified in the notice of the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) may be included in the agenda of the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) if more than half of the participants in the meeting vote for it. If a dispute arises between the bodies of the association about competence, the members of the association have the right to consider this dispute at the general meeting (meeting of authorized persons) and make the appropriate necessary clarifications to the charter of the association, observing statutory order.

2. The next general meeting (meeting of authorized) members of the association may be convened for meetings as necessary. It is obliged to meet annually, however, the law does not provide for measures of responsibility for members of the association who do not attend meetings. This is the whole difficulty and the actual inability of the vigorous activity of the general meeting and its influence on economic, organizational activity. In this regard, a more convenient form is a meeting of authorized representatives. Responsibilities for convening, organizational and technical preparation for holding a general meeting of members of the association are assigned to the board of the association. At the same time, the law does not strictly regulate the terms for convening the first (organizational), annual and extraordinary general meetings of members of the association. However, in the charter of a non-profit association and in the internal regulations on the organization of the general meeting of members approved by the general meeting of members of such an association, these terms must be determined.

The legislator paid much more attention to the procedure for convening extraordinary meetings. The basis for this may be the receipt of a proposal from a local self-government body, or from at least one-fifth of the total number of members of such an association, or a request from the audit commission (auditor) of such an association to hold an extraordinary general meeting of members of such an association (meeting of authorized persons).

In this case, the board of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association is obliged, within seven days from the date of their receipt, to consider these proposals and make a decision to hold an extraordinary general meeting of members of such an association (a meeting of authorized persons) or to refuse to hold it. In what case can the board refuse to hold an extraordinary general meeting? Only if the procedure established by the charter of such an association for submitting a proposal or presenting a demand to convene an extraordinary general meeting of its members (meeting of authorized persons) is not observed. This may mean that the issues on the agenda (or some of them) are not assigned by the charter of the association to the powers of the general meeting of the members of the association or the meeting of authorized persons, or the request to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the members of the association or the meeting of authorized persons does not contain documents, the annex to which this requirement provided by the charter of the association; it is also possible that the initiators of the convocation are individuals who are not members of the association or authorized members of the association, etc.

Thus, issues related to the convening of an extraordinary general meeting of members of a non-profit association (meeting of authorized persons) should be reflected in founding document association and the relevant regulations of such an association. The refusal of the board of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association to satisfy a proposal or demand to hold an extraordinary general meeting of members of such an association, the audit commission (auditor), members of the association, local government may appeal to the court.

If the board accepts such a demand (proposal), then it will have to hold a general meeting within 30 days after the adoption of the relevant decision. Moreover, it must be adopted by a simple majority of the members of the board of the association present at the meeting and approve the form for holding an extraordinary meeting (general meeting of members or a meeting of authorized persons), contain recommended candidates for chairpersons of an extraordinary general meeting of members or a meeting of authorized persons. The decision of the board of the association is signed by its members who voted for its adoption, and is made public. In what form should it be done?

As determined by the commented article, the notification of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association about the holding of a general meeting of its members (a meeting of authorized persons) can be carried out in writing (postcards, letters), through appropriate messages in the media mass media, as well as by placing appropriate announcements on information boards located on the territory of such an association, unless its charter establishes a different notification procedure. Notification of holding a general meeting of members of such an association (meeting of authorized persons) shall be sent no later than two weeks before the date of its holding. The notice of holding a general meeting of members of such an association (a meeting of authorized persons) must indicate the content of the issues submitted for discussion.

In order for the general meeting of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association (a meeting of authorized persons) to be competent, it must be attended by more than fifty percent of the members of such an association (not less than fifty percent of authorized persons). From the meaning of this norm it follows that participation in the general meeting and in voting is the right of a member of the association. At the same time, a member of such an association has the right to participate in voting personally or through his representative. The powers of the representative must be formalized by a power of attorney certified by the chairman of such an association.

During a meeting of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association (meeting of authorized persons), a chairman of the general meeting is elected by a simple majority of votes of the members of such an association present at the general meeting.

A range of issues has been specially defined, the solution of which requires a two-thirds majority - these are decisions on amending the charter of such an association and additions to its charter or on approving the charter in a new edition, exclusion from the membership of such an association, on its liquidation and (or) reorganization , the appointment of a liquidation commission and the approval of the interim and final liquidation balance sheets. Other decisions are taken by a simple majority of votes.

Decisions of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association (meeting of authorized persons) are brought to the attention of its members within seven days after the date of adoption of these decisions in the manner prescribed by the charter of such an association. If the decision violates the rights, legitimate interests of a member of the association (the plaintiff), then he can appeal against it in full or in part through the court. At the same time, it is necessary to indicate in the statement of claim which of his rights were violated, to attach the contested decision to the statement. The court will not take into account the arguments of the plaintiff, if the vote of the interested member of the association could not affect the results of the vote, and the violations committed are not significant, and the decision did not cause property losses to this member of the association.

3. In some cases, the general meeting may be held in absentia, that is, by questioning the members of the association. Its procedure must be provided for by the charter, otherwise this form is not applicable. If such a form is acceptable for an association, then the approved text of the ballot for absentee voting must be attached to the charter and internal regulations, and the charter itself establishes a special procedure for informing the members of such an association of the proposed agenda, familiarization with the necessary information and documents, regulates the procedure for making proposals on the inclusion of additional issues on the agenda, a specific deadline for the completion of the absentee voting procedure is determined.

If the agenda includes issues of approval of the income and expenditure estimates, reports of the board and the audit commission (auditor) of such an association, the general meeting cannot be held in absentia. Even if the charter establishes otherwise, it will be contrary to the law and the decision made in this way is appealed through the court.
