SECTION II-3. REMOVAL.
   Council may, by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the members of Council after public hearing, expel or remove the Mayor from office for gross misconduct, malfeasance, nonfeasance, misfeasance in or disqualification for office; for violation of the Mayor’s oath of office; for conviction while in office of a crime involving moral turpitude; for absence without justifiable excuse from three consecutive regular Council meetings; or for mental or physical disability rendering it impossible for the Mayor to perform the duties of Mayor. Prior to any such action by Council, the Mayor shall be notified in writing of the charge against the Mayor at least ten (10) days in advance of any hearing upon such charge, and the Mayor and their counsel shall be given an opportunity to be heard, present evidence or examine any witness appearing in support of such charge.
