§ 48-594. Quorum.

A quorum of three members shall be seated and present in order to open a meeting of the board and to take action on non-quasi-judicial matters. In order to take action on a quasi-judicial matter the board must have a quorum of five members seated and present unless the appellant or applicant consents to moving forward with less than five members. For calculating a quorum to take action on a quasi-judicial matter, the number of members seated and present includes members who were seated at the opening of the meeting that have been disqualified from voting on the particular matter if there are no qualified alternates available to take the place of such members. In the event that a quorum cannot be met due to vacant positions or a lack of qualified members, the board may continue its meeting in order for absent members to become available and, if necessary, for the board of commissioners to make appointments filling vacant seats and/or to make appointments of temporary alternate members who can fulfill the board's duties.
