When a question is put by the chair, every member present shall vote unless for special reasons the Council shall excuse him or her; but if interested he or she shall not vote. In doubtful cases the chair may direct or any member call for a division. The yeas and nays shall be called upon a requisition of the chair or any member, in which case the names of the members voting are required to be recorded in the minutes.
(Prior Code, § 202.12)
