15-106. Meetings of council.
Regular meetings of the council shall be held at such times, not less
than once each month, as shall be prescribed by ordinance. Special meetings
may be called by the mayor or acting mayor, on written request of any three
members of the council, specifying the object and purpose of such meeting,
which request shall be read at the meeting and entered at length on the
journal. In all cases it shall require a majority of the councilmen elect
to constitute a quorum to do business; but a smaller number may adjourn
from day to day, and may compel the attendance of absent members in such
manner and under such penalties as the council, by ordinance, may have
previously prescribed.
