§ 2-94. Emergency meeting.

In cases where immediate action must be taken to protect lives and property of the city, the mayor or any two (2) commissioners may call an emergency meeting that may begin once a quorum of the council members is present. An attempt will be made by the city administrator and city clerk to call council members at their place of employment and/or their residence prior to the start of any such meeting. Local media outlets shall be notified of the emergency meeting and the specific emergency that warranted said meeting prior to the beginning of the meeting. Only those items that warranted the emergency meeting shall be discussed and/or considered for approval. For the purposes of this paragraph, an emergency shall constitute any such event or condition of an unforeseen nature that requires immediate action or discussion to prevent loss of life, loss of property, or the mitigation of damages to prevent further loss of life or property.
