Speaking to a Motion. Members shall use courtesy when discussing and commenting <br /> on issues with other members, the staff and the public. <br /> B. Questioning. Any member of the Council shall have the right to question any individual, <br /> including members of the staff, on matters germane to the issue properly before the <br /> Council. <br /> C. Calling the question. After each member of the Council has had an opportunity to <br /> address and respond to other Council members comments, any member may move to <br /> "call the question." If this motion receives a second, no further debate will be allowed <br /> until a vote is held. If two-thirds of the members present vote to call the question the <br /> presiding officer shall call for a vote or move to the next agenda item if no vote is <br /> required. Otherwise, debate may resume. Nothing in this rule limits other remedies the <br /> council may exercise that are otherwise permitted by law. <br /> D. Mayor.
