(A) The meetings of the City Council shall be held at the City Hall. Regular meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at the hour of 6:30 p.m., except that if the first Tuesday is a legal holiday or if such first Tuesday is before the fourth day of the month, then such regular meeting may be held on the second Tuesday of the month.
(B) (1) Special meetings may be called by the Mayor, or by three members of the City Council, the object of which shall be submitted to the Council in writing. The call and object, as well as the disposition thereof, shall be entered upon the journal by the Municipal Clerk-Treasurer. On filing the call for a special meeting, the Municipal Clerk-Treasurer shall notify the Council members of the special meeting, stating the time and its purpose. Notice of a special meeting need not be given to a Council member known to be out of the state or physically unable to be present. Two-thirds of the members of the City Council shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a smaller number may adjourn from day to day and compel the attendance of the absent members; provided, that on the request of any two members, whether a quorum is present or not, all absent members shall be sent for and compelled to attend.
(2) At the hour appointed for the meeting, the Municipal Clerk-Treasurer shall proceed to call the roll of members and announce whether a quorum is present. If a quorum is present the Council shall be called to order by the Mayor, if present, or if absent, by the President of the Council. In the absence of both the Mayor and the President of the Council, the City Council members shall elect a President pro tempore.
