as the volunteer members of any newly organized fire company.
Thereafter, the fire company may elect other eligible persons, including Village
officers, as volunteer members. The election shall be pursuant to the bylaws,
if any, of the fire company; otherwise, by a three-fourths vote of the members
of the fire company present and voting at a regular or special meeting thereof.
The membership of any person so elected shall become effective when approved

Membership shall be deemed to have been approved pursuant to this subdivision
in the event that no action is taken by the Mayor or Board of Fire Commissioners
within 40 days after service of written notice of election to membership shall
have been made by the secretary of the fire company upon the Village clerk,
either personally or by mail."
