(a) The Planning Commission shall require a quorum of three members at all of its meetings, and a vote of three members shall be necessary to effect an order of the Commission.
(b) In the event a member of the Planning Commission abstains from voting on a matter or otherwise refuses to vote on a matter without having a conflict of interest, that member's abstention shall be counted with the vote count of the majority.
(c) However, in the event a member of the Planning Commission has a conflict of interest and is unable to vote due to a violation of the Ohio Ethics Laws regarding any matter that is before the Commission, that member's seat or those members' seats on the Commission shall be deemed to be vacant for purposes of that vote. In that event, the majority shall be reconfigured to reflect the fact that the member's seat or those members' seats having a conflict of interest are deemed to be vacant and the concurring votes of the remaining members who are eligible to vote shall be counted to reflect a simple majority of the reconfigured majority.
