(a) The President of Council shall refer to the appropriate committee of Council all inquiries, information, proposed legislation or other matters which properly require or might require study, consideration, investigation or other action by Council. Selection of the appropriate committee shall be the responsibility of the President of Council. If the President of Council does not assign a request for Council action to Committee within thirty days, the pending matter shall appear upon the Council floor at a regular meeting for appropriate discussion.
(b) Any proposed legislation or other matter requiring legislative consideration which has been referred to a committee for more then sixty days may, upon proper motion, be withdrawn from such committee for dispositive consideration by Council or for referral to a special committee to be appointed for such purpose. Such withdrawal from committee shall require a majority vote of the members of Council.
