Any meetings of the Quorum Court may be canceled as follows:
(A) Whenever there are no items placed on the meeting agenda by the time the agenda is closed, the County Clerk shall poll the members of the Quorum Court by phone to ascertain if the meeting should be canceled. The Clerk shall record the names of each of the Justices of the Peace voting for and against the cancellation of the meeting, and this poll shall be read into the minutes of the next meeting of the Quorum Court. If a majority of the members of the Quorum Court vote to cancel a meeting, the County Clerk shall notify all members of the Court and the public of the cancellation.
(B) On any other occasion, any three Justices may request the Clerk of the Court to poll the members concerning the cancellation of a meeting. Upon receipt of such request, the Clerk shall make a record of the three members requesting the cancellation, and will then poll the remaining members of the Quorum Court by phone and record their votes and notify the members of the Quorum Court of the results of that vote. If the meeting is canceled, the Clerk shall notify all members of the Court and the public of the cancellation.
