While you don’t need to vote for every action in a business, some items are important enough to need a full vote during a meeting, with documentation in the meeting minutes. An example of this might be when taking out a business loan, which often prompts an LLC banking resolution. Using an LLC Resolution template makes it easy to get everything from the meeting in writing and serves as a record of important developments.
We have a free LLC Resolution template for you to use. But before you get started, it’s helpful to understand how an LLC Resolution works.
Any significant changes to the LLC might benefit from an LLC Resolution. In addition to financial events, such as opening a new bank account , resolutions are common for changing addresses or offering new lines of business. Operating structure or role changes might require one as well. Most LLC Resolutions include the following sections:
While an LLC resolution is a record of a significant business event, it doesn’t need to be filed with the state. Store it away with your other important business papers so it can be reviewed later, if needed.
If in doubt, a well-written LLC Resolution can prove what happened in a prior meeting and act as a record of significant events in your business. These can be used for legal proceedings, in some cases, but are most often used to help clarify when things happened or who approved them.
