(A) Meetings of all city boards and commissions shall be called as needed by the chairperson, the Mayor, or three members thereof. A majority of the members of a city board or commission shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.
(B) Meetings of all boards and commissions at which any final action is to be taken or decision rendered shall be open to the public and any action taken or decision rendered at a meeting from which members of the public are excluded, except for misconduct, shall be void.
(C) A majority vote of the members present at any duly constituted board or commission meeting is sufficient for the adoption of a motion. When there is a tie vote the motion fails. All members present will vote “yea” or “nay” on all motions unless the member or members disqualify themselves for a conflict of interest on the business before the board or commission. Voting abstentions on a motion are not permitted unless a conflict of interest exists.
