3.08 Quorum, Voting of Members.
   A majority of the members elected to the Council shall constitute a quorum to do business, but a lesser number may adjourn from time to time and compel the attendance of absent members in the manner and under the penalties as may be prescribed by ordinance or resolution. The affirmative vote of a majority of the members elected to the Council shall be necessary to adopt any ordinance, resolution, order or vote; except that in the absence of a quorum, a vote to adjourn, or regarding the attendance of absent members, may be adopted by a majority of the members present. No member shall be excused from voting except on matters involving the consideration of his or her own official conduct, when his or her financial interests or the financial interests of his or her immediate family are involved, or when the laws of Ohio require the member to abstain. "Immediate family" means spouse, child or stepchild, grandchild, parent, step-parent, grandparent, brother, sister, parents or step-parents of spouse and grandparents of spouse.
