Any member of the Commission may be removed for inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office. Removal proceedings may be initiated by the Mayor or the City Council and notice of any proposed removal shall be given to the Commission member at least ten days prior to any City Council vote upon the removal. Within ten days of receipt of a notice of intended removal, the Commissioner may request a public hearing on the removal before the City Council. The Council shall conduct a public hearing, if requested. Upon completion of the hearing, or following the expiration of ten days from the notice date if no hearing is requested, the Council may take action on the removal. A two-thirds vote of the Council is required for removal. Notwithstanding the above, when a member misses three consecutive regular business meetings without being excused by majority vote of the Planning Commission, the member’s position shall automatically become vacant and a successor shall be appointed. (Ord. 2588 § 2 (part), 2011).
