A. Duties, Generally:
1. Members of the Council, the legislative and policy making branch of the City, shall devote so much of their time to the duties of their office as efficient and faithful discharge thereof may require.
2. Members shall attend all meetings of the Council unless lawfully excused therefrom by the Mayor, or by a majority of the remaining members.
3. Such members shall perform such duties as the passing of ordinances and resolutions, and perform investigations and study of work done for the City according to the committees upon which they may severally be appointed by the Mayor.
B. Meeting Attendance: Should it be determined by the Mayor or by a majority of the remaining members of the Council that an absence at the last proceeding regular meeting was, in effect, unexcused, it will be the policy that the involved absent Council member will not receive pay for that period. For three (3) or more consecutive unexcused absences, the Mayor may declare a Council member expelled, the position vacant, and proceed to fill the vacancy as provided by law.
