(A) Generally. Minutes of each City Council meeting shall be kept by the City Clerk-Treasurer or, in the City Clerk-Treasurer’s absence, by the Deputy City Clerk-Treasurer. In the absence of both, the presiding officer shall appoint a secretary pro tem. Ordinances, resolutions and claims need not be recorded in full in the minutes if they appear in other permanent records of the City Clerk-Treasurer and can be accurately identified from the description given in the minutes.
(B) Approval. The minutes of each meeting shall be taken by the City Clerk-Treasurer. At the next regular City Council meeting, approval of the minutes shall be considered by the City Council. The minutes need not be read aloud, but the presiding officer shall call for any additions or corrections. If there is no objection to a proposed addition or correction, it may be made without a vote of the City Council. If there is an objection, the City Council shall vote upon the addition or correction. If there are no additions or corrections, the minutes shall stand approved.
(C) The written minutes of the Council shall constitute the official minutes of the City.
