Ordinances and resolutions that have been introduced and have received their first reading, or both their first and second reading, but have not been voted upon as to passage, may be amended or revised upon approval of a majority vote of the members of Council, and such amended or revised ordinance or resolution need not receive readings in addition to those required by Article III, Section 2 and 4, because of such amendment or revision.
However, in the event of any material changes going to the substance of the ordinance or the purpose of the ordinance, then in that event, there must be a new ordinance prepared and the ordinance in question becomes null and void. If an ordinance has a material change it is a matter to be determined by the Law Director. (Amended 11-3-87.)
