A. Regular Meetings. The first regular meeting of the common council shall be held on the third Tuesday of April of each year. Thereafter regular meetings shall be held in the council chambers at seven p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month, or at such other times as the council shall direct.

B. Special Meetings. The mayor may call a special meeting at any time by written notice to each member delivered to him personally or left at his usual abode at least six hours before the meeting.

C. Roll Call. As soon as the council shall be called to order, the clerk-treasurer shall proceed to call the names of the members in alphabetical order, noting who are present and who are absent and record the same in the proceedings of the council. If it shall appear that there is not a quorum present, that fact shall be entered into the minutes and the council may adjourn, or the presiding officer or, in case of his or her absence, the clerk-treasurer may issue a process to any policeman commanding him forthwith to summon the absentees.

D. Quorum. Two-thirds of the members constitute a quorum. The mayor shall not be counted in computing a quorum, majority or other proportion under the requirements of law for the same, and shall not vote except in case of a tie. (Ord. 212 § 1, 1996; prior code § 2-2-1)
