The Council shall meet at such times as may be prescribed by its rules, regulations, ordinances and by-laws, but it shall hold regular meetings at least twice in each calendar month, provided, however, that it may recess during the month of August, subject to call of the Mayor.
Special meetings may be called by a vote of the Council taken at any regular or special meetings thereof, or shall be called by the Clerk of Council, upon the written request, or electronic communication of such request, of the Mayor or President of Council or three (3) members of Council. Any such request shall state the time, place, and date thereof and the subject or subjects to be considered. Notice in writing or electronic communication of each special meeting called at the request of the Mayor, President of Council or three (3) members of Council shall be given to each member of Council and the Mayor, by leaving a copy thereof at their usual place of residence, or by serving on each of them personally, or sending a copy via electronic mail, not less than twenty-four (24) hours preceding the date and hour of such meeting. Service of such meeting may be waived in writing or by electronic communication. All meetings, whether regular or special, shall be held at the Council Chambers of the City and shall be open to the public. (Amended 11-6-18; 11-7-23)
