(A) Presentation. Every ordinance and resolution shall be presented in writing and shall be read in full before a vote is taken thereon, but reading in full may be dispensed with by unanimous consent. All motions shall be recorded in the minutes and stated in full before they are submitted to a vote by the presiding officer. All petitions addressed to the Council shall be in writing and shall be read in full upon presentation to the Council, but reading in full may be dispensed with by unanimous consent. Other communications addressed to the Council shall be summarized, but, upon the request of any Council member, shall be read in full. They shall then be recorded in the minutes by title when designated and filed in their respective categories in the office of the Clerk.
(B) Signing and filing. Every ordinance and resolution passed by the Council shall be signed by the Mayor, attested by the Clerk and filed by him or her in the ordinance or resolution book. Proof of publication of every ordinance shall be attached to and filed with the ordinance.
(C) Repealers.

(2) No ordinance or resolution or subdivision or section thereof shall be amended by reference to title alone, but such amending ordinance shall set forth as much of the text as is necessary to set forth for the Council intent of the amendment.
