During the pendency of any charges against any volunteer member of the Department, the Emergency Medical Services Department Head may suspend from duty any such volunteer member until such charges can be examined and investigated. Following the examination and investigation of any such charges, any volunteer member may be removed by the City Council from membership in the Emergency Medical Services Department upon recommendation of the Emergency Medical Services Department Head. If the Emergency Medical Services Department Head does not recommend removal, upon the recommendation of the Mayor and a vote of three-fourths of the City Council as a whole, the City Council may remove any such volunteer member from membership following such examination and investigation.
