(a) Generally. When a question has once been decided, a motion for reconsideration is in order if the bill, resolution, motion, or matter upon which the vote was taken is still in the possession of the County Council or is a reconsideration of a Charter amendment vote pursuant to subsection (b).
(b) Limitations. A motion for reconsideration is not in order unless made on the same day on which the original vote was taken, or at the next legislative session of the County Council, except that a motion to reconsider a vote on a resolution to amend the Charter may be made at any time before the certification date for the question required in § 7-103 of the Election Law Article in the State Code.
(c) Person to make the motion. The motion for reconsideration shall be made by a member who voted with the prevailing side on the original question. In the case of a tie vote, either side of the question may make a motion for reconsideration and it shall be reconsidered on the majority vote of all members present and voting.
(d) Second motion prohibited. A second motion to reconsider may not be entertained.
