(A) Robert’s Rules of Order Revised shall be used as the guideline for conduct of Council meetings, except in those cases where specific provisions contrary to Robert’s Rules are provided herein.
(B) The Council has an obligation to be clear and simple in its procedures and the consideration of the questions coming before it. It should avoid invoking the finer points of parliamentary rules which may serve only to obscure the issues and arouse the suspicion of the audience at public meetings and the citizens of the city in general.
