Any member of Council may propose amendments to ordinances before Council after the
first reading. The proposed amendment shall be considered by Council at that meeting.
Prior to any vote on a motion to amend, a substantive discussion on the merits of
the proposed amendment has concluded, a vote of Council will be taken on the amendment
first before a vote is taken on the matter as a whole. If the amendment passes, Council
will then vote on the matter, as amended, before Council.
Amendments to ordinances made on the floor of Council after the first reading shall
be indicated by the Clerk of Council on the original ordinance.
When an ordinance is referred to a Committee, it may be reported back with a recommended
substitute for the legislation. The Presiding Officer of the appropriate Committee
shall state the substitute recommended by the committee.
The Clerk of Council shall note on the document that it is substitute legislation.
The original legislation may be placed on the calendar for indefinite postponement.
