(1) Except as the second and third paragraphs of this section provide to the contrary, every ordinance of the council shall, before being put upon its final passage, be read fully and distinctly in an open council meeting on two different days.
(2) Except as the third paragraph of this section provides to the contrary, an ordinance may be enacted at a single meeting of the council by a unanimous vote of all council members present, upon being read first in full and then by title.
(3) Any of the readings may be by title only if no council member present at the meeting requests to have the ordinance read in full or if a copy of the ordinance is provided for each council member and three copies are provided for public inspection in the office of the city recorder not later than one (1) week before the first reading of the ordinance and if notice of their availability is given forthwith upon the filing, by written notice posted at the city hall and two other public places in the city or by advertisement in a newspaper of general circulation in the city. An ordinance enacted after being read by title alone may have no legal effect if it differs substantially from its terms as it was thus filed prior to such reading unless each section incorporating such a difference is read fully and distinctly in an open council meeting as finally amended prior to being approved by the council.
(4) Upon the final vote on an ordinance, the ayes and nays of the members shall be taken and entered in the record of proceedings.
(5) Upon the enactment of an ordinance the recorder shall sign it with the date of its passage and his name and title of office, and within three (3) days thereafter the Mayor shall sign it with the date of his signature, his name, and the title of his office.
