WPCC Mars Council Procedural Rules
Resolution Presentation – Any council member may present a resolution to the other council members for discussion and vote. The member must be recognized by the chair to present the resolution that will be done as soon as any current debate has been concluded.
Resolution Vote – Once the debate on a resolution has completed a vote is called by the chair. The vote is yea or nay and the members that have a veto must explicitly indicate whether they are using their veto. If a resolution receives more yea than nay votes and there is no veto it is considered binding to all members of the council and those they represent. A resolution that fails may be presented again later with the permission of the chair that must decide if there has been a change in the opinions of the council that would permit it to pass. A resolution may not be voted on unless all members or representatives from the major colony groups (NASB, ESB, and PSB) are present as well as the chair (WPCC) or his representative.
Resolution Debate – All debating between members of the council should be done in a civilized manner with each member being given an opportunity to present his position on it. In the event that the debate becomes too unruly the chair may take action as defined under his powers to correct the situation.
