Council shall hold at least one (1) regular meeting in each calendar month. A majority of the Council members shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of Council, but a lesser number may adjourn the meeting from time to time. At any meeting at which a quorum is present, any ordinance or resolution may be passed or adopted, or any other action may be taken, by the affirmative vote of four (4) Council members unless a larger number be required by the provisions of this Charter. The Clerk of Council shall keep a record of its proceedings in a journal in which the yea or nay vote of each Council member voting on every ordinance or resolution or the reconsideration of legislation vetoed by the Mayor, and the action of Council on other measures shall be recorded. All meetings of Council called for the purpose of transacting public business, where a majority of the Council members elected are present, shall be open to the public, which may be by live attendance or, when permitted by law, by means of teleconference, video conference, or any other similar electronic technology, unless a private executive session is called pursuant to the Ohio Revised Code, or a private executive session is held with the Director of Law or an Assistant Director of Law.
