When any member or members of the council are appointed by the mayor to represent the city on county, area, district or state boards, committees or commissions, such appointed member or members shall be the duly authorized representatives and spokespersons for the council on or before such bodies and no other council member shall speak as the council's representative and in behalf of the council before such bodies under penalty of public censure by a majority vote of the entire council. Nothing herein shall prevent a council member from appearing before such body as a private citizen.
