Each jurisdiction and organization eligible and present to vote will be allowed one vote. In the event of a tie or when there is less than a two-thirds majority on a recommendation, cities and counties will receive votes as follows to determine the outcome:
Number of Residents | Number of Votes |
1 - 999 | 1 |
1,000 - 4,999 | 2 |
5,000 - 9,999 | 3 |
10,000 - 29,999 | 4 |
30,000 - 49,999 | 5 |
50,000 + | 6 |
The population for a county will be determined by subtracting the population of eligible cities. The most recent population figures published by the census bureau will be used.
As each recommendation for each proposed amendment is presented, time will be provided for anyone present to indicate support or opposition to each proposed amendment or to propose amending the recommendation. A proposed amendment to a recommendation must be approved by a two-thirds majority of the voting qualified appointed representatives to be considered.
After all proposed amendments have been acted on, a final vote will be taken for the purpose of recognizing the specific publication year of the IBC, IRC, IMC, and IFGC adopted and all of the amendments approved.
