Adjournment. The City Council may, by majority vote of those present, adjourn to a specific date and hour. A motion to adjourn shall always be in order and decided without debate. ARTICLE 12. MOTIONS A. A motion may be made by beginning the statement with words such as, I move that... A motion must be stated clearly, and specifically state the contents of the motion. There can be no discussion after a motion is made until there is a second or the motion dies for lack of a second. If there is not a second, the Mayor may announce that the motion failed for lack of a second, and the discussion may continue, or the City Council may move on to the next agenda item. B. At any time before the question is called on a pending motion, the City Council Member who made the motion may ask or may be asked by another Council Member, that his or her motion be amended. At the time of the amendment, the amendment shall be clearly stated. If the City Council Member who seconded the vote agrees, then the motion shall be considered amended voluntarily. C. At any time before the question is called on a pending motion, a City Council Member may make a motion to amend the motion. At that time the discussion of the underlying issue will stop. If there is not a second to the motion to amend, then discussion on the underlying issue will continue. If there is a second to the motion to amend and the motion is not amended pursuant to paragraph B above, then all discussion will be confined to the motion to amend, and there shall be a vote on the motion to amend. If the motion to amend is adopted by majority vote of the City Council, discussion will continue on the (now) amended motion. If the motion to amend fails, discussion will continue on the original motion on the floor. SWR:pr /25/2011 6

9 D. At any time before the question is called on a pending motion, the City Council Member who made the motion may ask that his or her motion be withdrawn. The motion will be withdrawn only in the event that the City Council Member who seconded the motion agrees with withdrawal of the motion. E. Discussion is to end at the time the question is called, or at the time the Mayor determines that there is no further discussion desired by any City Council Member. The Mayor may direct the City Clerk to read the motion. If there is a conflict as to whether the motion as read is the motion as intended, the matter will revert to further discussion until the discrepancy is corrected. F. The Mayor may ask City Council Members to designate their individual votes by announcing aye or nay. If, prior to the vote or after the vote, any City Council Member requests a roll call vote, the City Clerk shall call roll, and each City Council Member shall state his or her vote aloud. G. A motion passes if it receives more aye votes than the combined number of nay votes plus the number of City Council Members abstaining from voting on the motion, regardless of the reason for the abstention. In the case of a tie in votes on any motion, the motion shall be considered defeated. Council Members abstaining from voting will be deemed to have voted on the side of the majority, but in no event shall the abstentions break a tie vote. H. Reconsideration of any action taken by the City Council may be requested only by a City Council Member who was on the prevailing side of the vote. Such City Council Member may request that the motion to reconsider be considered at the same or next available meeting. If the motion to reconsider is successful, the City Council may discuss and vote on the original issue, and any City Council Member may make motions on the original issue. ARTICLE 13. SUSPENSION OF RULES Any of the provisions of these Rules of Procedure may be temporarily suspended by the Mayor or majority vote of the City Council in connection with any matter under consideration, except that this article shall not be construed to permit any action that is contrary to state statutes.
