§ 2-34. Abstention by member with special interest.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    If an official vote is taken on any issue wherein an individual member of the Quorum Court feels that his or her special interest on the question would prevent an impartial decision, such member(s) shall vote "present" or abstain from voting.

    (b)

    Should a member of the Quorum Court determine he or she could not vote impartially on a question in accordance with subsection (a), this will not prevent the member from debating the issue on the floor before a vote is taken.
