§ 473. Loan officers, credit committee; duties. Whenever the term\n"credit committee" is used in this article, it shall solely be\napplicable to those credit unions whose bylaws provide for such\ncommittee. The credit committee of every credit union shall meet as\noften as necessary, after due notice has been given to each member, for\nthe purpose of passing upon applications of members for loans. No loan\nshall be made unless approved by a loan officer or by a majority of the\nmembers of the credit committee; except the credit committee or a loan\nofficer may approve in advance upon application by a member, an\nextension of credit, and loans may be granted to such members within the\nlimits of such extension of credit. The loan officers or the credit\ncommittee shall be responsible for reviewing and affirming all\nextensions of credit and any extension of credit shall expire if the\nmember becomes more than ninety days delinquent in his obligations to\nthe credit union. If the credit union has shares in excess of fifty\nthousand dollars, the credit committee may appoint one or more loan\nofficers and delegate to him, her or them the power to approve loans\nwithin the limits fixed by the board of directors.
