Non-profit Admin Dissolved re-instatement

I am working to re-instate an Admin Dissolved Non-profit. The corp. has been dissolved since '99. The last Pres and Secy. are the caretakers of the corp. real property. They stated they are going to re-instate the corp. without having a publice meeting to elect a new Board. Can they do that? If not, what action must be taken to prevent it? They have continued to operate the corp. during the period since declaration of dissouloution.

Thanks

Mike
