The general rules of parliamentary procedure set forth in Robert’s Rules of Order govern the conduct of Council except in situations where other procedures are provided.

Any motion or resolution may be presented directly to the appropriate committee of Council.

A motion or resolution may also be offered on the floor of the Council. If seconded, the motion or resolution will be referred to the appropriate committee of Council for consideration without discussion or debate.

The committee of Council to which a motion or resolution has been presented or referred shall report either favorably or unfavorably on it before final adjournment of Council.
