[H 252]
Approved March 9, 1962

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 15-241, as amended, of the Code of Virginia, be amended and
reenacted as follows:

§ 15-241. Except as otherwise provided by law, the * governing body
of each county shall assemble at the courthouse of the county or * at such
other public place in the county as the governing body may prescribe, in
regular session * not less often than once each month upon such day or
days as may be prescribed by * order of the * governing body. *
The first meeting held * after the newly elected members of the gov-
erning body shall have qualified and the first meeting held in the corres-
ponding month of each succeeding year shall be known as the annual meet-
ing *, and the first meeting held in the sixth month thereafter shall be
known as * the semi-annual meeting. *

The days, times and places of regular meetings to be held during the
ensuing twelve months shall be established at the annual meeting. Provided,
however, that if the * governing body subsequently shall prescribe any *
public place other than the courthouse, or any time other than that initially
established, as a meeting place or time, the * governing body shall pass a
resolution as to such future meeting place or time and shall cause a copy
of such resolution to be posted on the door of the courthouse and inserted
in a newspaper having a general circulation in the county once a week for
two successive weeks prior to the first such meeting at such * other place
or time.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a majority of the mem-
bers of the governing body present at the prescribed time and place to at-
tend any meeting held or to have been held pursuant to the provisions of
this section shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of adjourning such
meeting from day to day or from time to time, not beyond the time fixed for
the next regular meeting, until the business before the governing body is
completed.

2. An emergency exists and this act is in force from its passage.
