The city council may deny the proposed ordinance without first approving or overriding the majority protest; or C. If the city council fails to override the majority protest and also fails to deny the proposed ordinance within sixty (60) days from the close of the public hearing on the proposed ordinance, said ordinance shall be deemed denied by the city council on the sixty-first (61st) day.
