The Mayor may, at any time, remove any officer appointed by him or her pursuant to § 242.03. Any appointed officer who shall no longer satisfy the qualifications set forth in § 242.03(A)(1) and (2), or who has been indicted in any court located in the United States for any infamous crime, bribery, perjury or other felony involving the characteristics of dishonesty, falsehood or fraud, shall no longer be eligible to serve in the office and must be removed upon notice to the Mayor and Council of those facts which demonstrate the creation of the ineligibility. The Mayor is not required to disclose the reasons for the removal, but shall inform Council of the removal at a meeting to be held not less than five days nor more than 20 days following the removal. Upon removal, a vacancy in the office formerly held by the removed officer shall exist, and the vacancy shall thereafter be filled pursuant to § 242.03.
