§ 2-5-109 - PUBLIC HEARINGS. (A) If a public hearing before the council is required by the Code, but is not required by the Charter or by state or federal law, a public hearing before a council committee satisfies the requirement. (B) If council action is indicated by the hearing, the committee may not act in council's stead, but may make a report or recommendation to the full council. (C) Except as otherwise provided in this article, when a council committee holds a public hearing to satisfy a requirement of the Code, the hearing shall, as near as may be practicable, follow the procedure for a hearing held before the council. (D) This section prevails over any other provision of the Code to the extent of a conflict. Source: Ord. No. 20170518-014>, Pt. 6, 5-29-17.
