Members appointed to Common Council committees or to any other
standing City board, commission or committee are required to attend
a minimum of two-thirds of the meetings of their respective bodies
in each six-month period, unless excused by the membership of their
body. Failure to comply with this section may result in the removal
and replacement of the official found to be in noncompliance.
[Added 2-17-2020 by Ord. No. 2-20-727]
Unless otherwise prohibited by state or federal law, any member
of any City committee, board, commission or authority may attend any
meeting of such body by audio-visual technology (including, but not
limited to telephone). A member so participating shall count toward
the quorum of the body. Appropriate equipment shall be used so that
the attending public of the meeting can readily hear such person's
participation in the meeting. No person shall be allowed to participate
in any meeting where such equipment is unavailable or inoperable at
the time of the meeting. The member shall notify the chairperson and
staff member of their intent to appear by such technology in sufficient
time to permit the use of such equipment.
