Sec. 11. Vacancies—office of mayor or councilmen,
how filled.
Whenever, from any cause, a vacancy shall occur in the office
of mayor it shall be filled by the Council. A vacancy in the office
of councilman shall be filled by the Council at its next regular
meeting from the qualified electors of the City. The officer
thus elected shall hold office for the term for which his predecessor
was elected, unless sooner vacated by death, resignation, removal,
or from other causes. An entry of said election shall be
made in the journal. If the mayor or a councilman shall remove
his residence from the City limits such removal shall operate to
vacate his office.
