(A) All ordinances and resolutions or orders for the appropriation or payment of money shall require for their passage or adoption the concurrence of a majority of all elected members of the Board of Trustees. Ordinances of a general or permanent nature shall be read by title on three different days unless three-fourths of the Board of Trustees vote to suspend this requirement. Such requirement shall not be suspended for any ordinance for the annexation of territory, or the redrawing of boundaries for Village Board of Trustees election districts or wards or as otherwise provided by law. In case this requirement is suspended, the ordinance shall be read by title and then moved for final passage. Three-fourths of the Board of Trustees may require a reading of any such ordinance in full before enactment under either procedure set out in this section.
(Neb. RS 17-614)
(B) On the passage or adoption of every bylaw or ordinance, and every resolution or order to enter into a contract by the Board of Trustees, the yeas and nays shall be called and recorded. To pass or adopt any bylaw, ordinance or any such resolution or order a concurrence of a majority of the whole number of members elected to the Board of Trustees shall be required. All appointments of the officers by the Board of Trustees shall be made viva voce, and the concurrence of a like majority shall be required, and the names of those, and for whom they voted, on the vote resulting in an appointment, shall be recorded. The requirements of a roll call or viva voce vote shall be satisfied by a village which utilizes an electronic voting device which allows the yeas and nays of each member of the Board of Trustees to be readily seen by the public.
