Upon the conclusion of the investigation and argument of the case, a vote shall be
taken upon each charge and specification by yeas and nays, and upon the final issue
the question shall be: "Shall the accused be removed from office?" If two-thirds of
the members of the court present vote to sustain either of the charges against the
accused, it shall be the duty of the presiding officer to enter the judgment of the
court, in which he shall record the vote of each member upon the several charges and
specifications, and shall also include in such judgment an order removing the accused
from his office and declaring the same vacant, but if the vote is otherwise and the
accused declared not guilty, the judgment shall be entered accordingly; provided,
it shall require all of the council to constitute a quorum for the trial of such cases
and a concurrent vote of two-thirds of all the councilmembers elected to remove.
