§ 2643. Special meetings
(a) The legislative body may warn a special municipal meeting when they deem it necessary and shall call a special meeting on the application of five percent of the voters. A special meeting shall be called within 15 days of receipt of the application by the legislative body.
(b) Special meetings shall, when the municipality so votes and until it votes otherwise, start at 7:30 P.M. on the day before the day when the polls are to be opened for voting by ballot. If so convened, all business to be done from the floor at the special meeting may be transacted on that preceding day. At the close of the business, the meeting shall adjourn to the following day for voting by ballot.
(c) The legislative body may rescind the call of a special meeting called by them but not a special meeting called on application of five percent of the voters. (Added 1977, No. 269 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
