RESOLUTION AMENDING CITY COUNCIL POLICIES REGARDING MOTION TO
RECONSIDER
Be It Resolved by the City Council for the City of Corpus Christi, Texas:
That City Council Policy No. 16 n. regarding Motion to Reconsider is amended to add the
underlined text as follows:
16. - Conduct of meetings; rules of procedure.
n. Motion to Reconsider. Any member of the Council who voted with the prevailing side
on any question may move its reconsideration no later than the next regular meeting;
reconsideration shall require a two-thirds vote of the Council. The fact that a failed action
is subject to such motion being made at the next regular meeting does not prevent it from
being brought up as new business at or before the next regular meeting. A motion to
reconsider a previous vote or action of the City Council shall only be permitted when the
requesting Council member and the Council member seconding the request submit a
written request to the City Secretary at least one business day prior to the expiration of
the 72 -hour posting deadline to request placement on the next regular City Council
meetinq agenda. Upon such written request, the City Secretary shall place such motion
for reconsideration on the next regular City Council meeting agenda, and include a
statement on the agenda that if the motion to reconsider passes by the required two-thirds
vote, then the reconsidered item shall be voted on at the same meeting.
