Every ordinance passed by the City Council, before it shall go into effect, shall be presented to the Mayor for his approval. If he approves the same he shall sign and return it to the City Manager. If he disapproves the same, or any part thereof, he shall return it to the City Council by its next regular meeting, with his objections in writing to the same or to the part thereof disapproved by him. The City Council shall cause the Mayor's objections to be spread upon their minutes, and shall proceed to consider the same, and if they shall again pass said ordinance by a four-fifths (4/5) vote, it shall become a law, the Mayor's vote to the contrary notwith-standing. Any ordinance submitted to the Mayor for his approval, and which he shall not return by the next regular meeting of the City Council, shall become law in like manner as if passed by the City Council and approved by the Mayor.
