Bill Summary

An Act relating to the reinstatement of Native village corporations; relating to the reinstatement of nonprofit corporations organized for a religious purpose and religious corporations; and providing for an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Alaska law to allow Native village corporations, which are business entities organized for the benefit of Alaska Native villages, to be reinstated at any time, even if they were involuntarily dissolved by the commissioner and missed the original two-year deadline for reinstatement. Previously, there was a strict two-year limit to apply for reinstatement after dissolution, and this bill removes that limitation for Native village corporations. The bill also makes a similar provision for nonprofit corporations organized for a religious purpose and religious corporations, allowing them to be reinstated at any time, removing the previous two-year limit. This means that if a corporation's name is no longer available upon reinstatement, the board of directors can change the name without needing shareholder approval. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
