   The President of the Council shall schedule committee meetings of the whole Council as necessary, and shall give Council members written notice of the meeting at least 48 hours prior to the meeting. Any 3 members of the Council, after consultation with the Council President, may also call a committee meeting of the whole Council in the same manner as the Council President. The committee meetings shall be open to both the press and public as are all regular and special meetings of the Council. The President shall call the Council to order at the prescribed time, or in his or her absence, the Vice-President shall act in his or her stead. Although the parliamentary rules governing procedures for speech and debate may be set aside at the discretion of the President at such committee meetings, all other rules and regulations governing decorum and standards of conduct shall be in full force and effect whenever a Council member performs any of the duties, obligations and services mandated by his or her office.
