§ 2-69. Failure to vote

Latest version.

Every councilman should vote unless disqualified by reason of a conflict of interest. A councilman who abstains from voting acknowledges that a majority of the quorum may decide the question voted upon. A councilman who is silent or inattentive and fails to vote without stating his abstention or without being disqualified shall be deemed to have cast a "yes" vote.
