§ 7.4. — Voting:

The vote by "yes" or "no" shall be taken upon the passage of all ordinances, resolutions and motions, and entered upon the minutes of the Council proceedings. Except as provided in Section 7.7, every ordinance shall require the affirmative vote of the majority of the membership of the entire Council for final passage. Resolutions and motions shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the members present. No member of the Council shall vote on any question in which he has a conflict of interest, other than the common public interest, or on any question concerning his conduct, but on all other questions each member who is present shall vote when his name is called unless excused by the unanimous consent of the remaining members present. Any member refusing to vote except when not so required by this Charter, shall be considered delinquent in his duties and an affirmative vote shall be cast and recorded in his name.
