This sounds like the job for "Meetups Everwhere 
(http://www.meetup.com/everywhere/create/)".  Once someone "official" creates 
the root of the org (meetup.com/lopsa) via link above, then local communicies 
can create subs based on location, e.g. meetup.com/lopsa/virginia-beach-va

We've done this with another org I'm in that works well: 
Code for America Brigade is the official org root 
http://www.meetup.com/cfabrigade/
with 47 local communities, e.g. 
http://www.meetup.com/cfabrigade/Virginia-Beach-VA/
each one is controlled by their locals with singular branding under the main 
org.
