(2) No amendment to the laws of any domestic society shall take effect unless approved by the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services.

Unless the director shall disapprove any such amendment within 60 days after the filing, the amendment shall be considered approved.

In case the director disapproves the amendment, the reasons shall be stated in the written notice.
(3) Within 90 days from the approval by the director, all such amendments, or a synopsis thereof, shall be furnished to all members of the society either by mail or by publication in full in the official publication of the society. The affidavit of any officer of the society or of anyone authorized by it to mail any amendments, or synopses thereof, stating facts which show that the amendments have been duly addressed and mailed, shall be prima facie evidence that the amendments, or synopsis thereof, have been furnished to the addressee.
