Any member of the council failing to attend any meeting of the same without valid
excuse may be fined not less than $1.00 nor more than $5.00, unless excused by the
mayor. Any member so fined shall have the right to appeal to the council over the
decision of the mayor. Any member of the council who continuously and successively
absents himself without cause, from three regular meetings of the council, shall thereby
forfeit his office as councilmember and the council shall declare his office vacant
and elect his successor.
