§ 31.55 ORDINANCES.
   (A)   Ordinances shall be adopted based on the voting requirements set forth by the statutes of the state, but in no case may an ordinance be adopted with less than a majority vote of those elected officials entitled to vote thereon.
   (B)   Ordinances shall be deemed adopted by the Town Council upon a favorable vote on a motion to adopt after second reading. Any ordinance which fails to receive a majority vote on first reading shall not be read a second time and shall be deemed rejected.
   (C)   No ordinance may receive a second reading or final approval at the same meeting in which it is first introduced unless, by unanimous vote of the Council members present, they agree to consider the ordinance on second reading, and, such ordinance may not be adopted at that meeting unless it receives a favorable vote of four members of the Town Council. In all other cases, second reading shall occur at the next Town Council meeting.
