Mont. Code Ann. § 70-24-314 establishes that residents living in a rental community have the right to form and participate in a resident association. The association's members may elect officers at any meeting where a majority of members are present, and all residents—regardless of whether they are formal members—are permitted to attend those meetings. This provision sets a basic democratic structure for how such associations organize themselves.
