(A) Except as provided in division (B) below, no ordinance shall be enacted until it has been read on two separate days. The reading of an ordinance may be satisfied by stating the title and reading a summary rather than the full text.
(B) In an emergency, upon the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the membership, the City Council may suspend the requirements of second reading and publication in order for an ordinance to become effective by naming and describing the emergency in the motion. Publication requirements of § 32.38 of this code shall be complied with within ten days of the enactment of the emergency ordinance.
