§ 2.05.070. Disqualification from voting and influencing.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    If a majority of the Council or board concludes there is a conflict, the member shall be disqualified from acting or voting on the matter or any related business. In addition, the disqualified member shall refrain from attempting to influence the decisions of other members of the Council or board in voting on the matter, and refrain from participating in any manner in the deliberations of the Council or board.

    (b)

    The disqualification of the member shall not preclude the existence of a quorum, nor result in the loss of a quorum, of the Council or board. However, the disqualification of a member from voting on an issue that requires the affirmative vote of a specific number of votes shall automatically be reduced by the number of members disqualified, except for matters before the Council.
