After a motion and vote by the Council, any action may be reconsidered or rescinded in the following manner:
(a) Reconsideration. This motion shall be in order at the same meeting, be amendable and debatable. Such motion can be made by any Councilmember regardless of how he/she previously voted on the matter. If the motion to reconsider passes, it overrules and cancels the prior action.
(b) Recision. A motion to rescind (repeal, cancel or nullify) prior Council action shall be in order at any meeting. Rescinding shall operate prospectively only and not retroactively to the date of the original action. It shall not adversely affect any substantial intervening legal rights which create an estoppel situation.
