Right now there is no process to dissolve, so one would have to be created in the ACC Constitution and Bylaws. To amend the ACC Constitution and Bylaws requires 75% of members voting to do it. That would be 12 votes. You would have to create what you want it to say is the rule, and then get 12 members to support it.
