If any member of the planning and zoning commission fails to attend three (3) consecutive meetings, or fails to attend one- half (1/2) of all commission meetings scheduled or called during any twelve (12) month period, such failure to attend shall constitute cause for the removal of such member of the commission. Such member of the commission may be removed either by a recommendation by a majority vote of the remaining members of the planning and zoning commission, which recommendation shall be forwarded to the city council for action; or by action of the city council without the recommendation or action by the remaining members of the planning and zoning commission. Any vacancy created shall be filled by the mayor for the duration of the term of said member of the planning and zoning commission, with the advice and consent of the city council.
