Sec. 2-20. Adoption and suspension.[23]

The city council shall determine the rules of its proceedings,
except so far as the same are determined by the Constitution
and laws of the state and the Charter of the city.

The rules of order and procedure of the city council, with the
right of the body to suspend the same by a four-fifths vote,
shall be as set out in this article.

No rule adopted by the city council shall be suspended except
by the consent of four members. Suspension of the rules may
be made by a motion. (Code 1959, § 2-20.)
