Once the motion has been properly made and seconded,the Mayor shall open the matter for debate offering the first opportunity to debate to the moving party and, thereafter, to any Councilmember properly recognized by the Mayor. Once the motion has been fully debated and the Mayor calls for a vote,no further debate will be allowed,provided however,Councilmembers may be allowed to explain their respective votes.

Regardless of the manner of voting, the results reflecting all "yes"and"no" votes must be clearly set forth for the record. In order to be adopted a motion requires the"yes"vote of a majority of the quorum present,unless the vote of three or more Councilmembers is required by statute,ordinance or resolution. An abstention shall not be counted as a "yes" or a "no" vote but the Councilmember abstaining shall be counted for the purpose of determining the quorum. A tie vote means no action has been taken. D. Procedural Rules of Order. Once the main motion is properly placed on the floor,several related motions may be employed in addressing the main motion, and if properly made and seconded,must be disposed of before the main motion can be acted upon. The following motions may be made by the Mayor or any Councilmember at any appropriate time during the discussion of the main motion. They are listed in order of precedence. 1. Subsidiary Motion. The First three subsidiary motions are non-debatable;the last four are debatable. (a) Lay On the Table. Any Councilmember may move to lay the matter under discussion on the table. This motion temporarily suspends any further discussion of the pending motion without setting a certain time to resume debate. In order to bring the matter back before the Council,a motion must be adopted that the matter be taken from the table. A motion to take from a table must be made at the same meeting at which it was placed on the table or at the next regular meeting of the Council. Otherwise the motion that was tabled dies,although it can be raised later as a new motion. (b) Move Previous Question. Any Councilmember may move to immediately bring the question being debated by the Council to a vote, suspending any further debate. The motion must be made and seconded without interrupting the one who already has the floor. A majority vote of the quorum present is required for passage. (c) Limited or Extend Limits of Debate. any Councilmember may move to put limits on the length of debate. The motion must be made and seconded and requires a majority vote of the quorum present to pass. (d) Postpone to a Certain Time. Any Councilmember may move to postpone debate and action on the motion to a date and certain time. (e) Commit or Refer. Any Councilmember may move that the matter being discussed should be referred to staff,a committee or a commission for further study. The motion may contain directions for the staff,committee or commission,as well as a date upon which the matter will be returned to the Council's Agenda. If no date is set for returning the item to the Council agenda,any Councilmember may move,at any time,to require the item be returned to the agenda. (f) Amend. Any Councilmember may amend the main motion or any amendment made to the main motion. Before the main motion may be acted upon,all amendments and amendments to amendments must first be acted upon. An amendment must be related to the main motion or amendment to which it is directed. Any amendment which substitutes a new motion rather than amending the existing motion is out of order and may be so declared by the Mayor. • RESOLUTION NO. 94—C156 PAGE 6 OF 7 (g) Postpone Indefinitely, Any Councilmember may move to postpone indefinitely the motion on the floor,thus avoiding a direct vote on the pending motion and suspending any further action on the matter. 2. Motions of Privilege. Order and Convenience. The following actions by the Council are to ensure orderly conduct of meetings and for the convenience of the Mayor and Councilmembers. These motions take precedence over any pending main or subsidiary motion and may be debated except as noted. (a) Call for Orders of the Day. Any Councilmember may demand that the agenda be followed in the order stated therein. No second is required and the chair must comply unless the Council sets aside the agenda order of the day. This motion is not debatable. (b) Oucstion of Privilege. Any Councilmember, at any time during the meeting,may make a request of the Mayor to accommodate the needs of the Council or his/her personal needs for such things as reducing noise, adjusting air conditioning,ventilation,lighting,etc. Validity of question is ruled on by the Mayor. (c) Recess. Any Councilmember may move for a recess. (d) Adjourn, Any Councilmember may move to adjourn at any time,even if there is business pending. The motion is not debatable. (e) Point of Order, Any Councilmember may require the Mayor to enforce the rules of the Council by rasing a point of order. The point of order shall be ruled upon by the Mayor. (f) Appeal. Should any Councilmember be dissatisfied with a ruling from the Mayor,he/she may move to appeal the ruling to the full Council. (g) Suspend the Rules, Any Councilmember may move to suspend the rules if necessary to accomplish a matter that would otherwise violate the rules. (h) Division of Question. Any Councilmember may move to divide the subject matter of a motion which is made up of several parts in order to vote separately on each part. This motion may also be applied to complex ordinances or resolutions. (i) Reconsider. Except for votes regarding matters which are quasi-judicial in nature or matters which require a noticed public hearing,the Council may reconsider any vote taken at the same meeting,but no later than the same or next meeting,to correct inadvertent or precipitant errors,or to consider new information not available at the time of the vote. The motion to reconsider must be made by a Councilmember who voted on the prevailing side,must be seconded and requires a majority vote of the quorum for passage,regardless of the vote required to adopt the motion being reconsidered. If the motion to reconsider is successful,the matter to be reconsidered takes no special preference over other pending matters and any special voting requirements related thereto still apply. Except pursuant to a motion to reconsider,once a matter has been determined and voted upon,the same matter cannot be brought up again at the same meeting. RESOLUTION NO. 9 4—C1 5 6 PAGE 7 OF 7 (j) Rescind,Repeal or Annul, The Council may rescind,repeal or annul any prior action taken with reference to any legislative matter so long as the action to rescind,repeal or annul complies with all the rules applicable to the initial adoption,including any special voting or notice requirements or unless otherwise specified by law. SECTION 7. ESTABLISHING A NORMATIVE STRUCTURE FOR COUNCIL MEETINGS A. Recognizing that it is of critical importance that the public's business be conducted in an efficient and timely manner,and that a Councilmember's ability to effectively deal with agenda issues diminishes as meetings proceed to an advanced night hour, the following parameters are hereby established. 1. Regular City Council meetings shall end no later than 10:30 p.m. 2. When required,closed sessions shall begin no later than 10:10 p.m.and shall conclude no later than 10:25 p.m. 3. Each meeting shall adjourn no later than 10:30 p.m.; any unfinished business shall be held over to the next regular or adjourned meeting. 4. The above notwith-standing,a meeting may be extended past 10:30 p.m.upon vote of the City Council and only if absolutely required because of timing and/or emergency requirements of the business at hand. SECTION 8,COUNCIL AUTHORITY The Council shall have the authority to waive provisions of this Resolution unless the procedure is required by law. Failure of the Council to follow the procedure established by this Resolution shall not invalidate or otherwise affect any action of the Council.
