The Mayor and, in his absence, the acting Mayor of the City of Savannah is hereby
given the power of revision of all ordinances and resolutions hereafter passed by
the said City through its Council before the same shall become operative, and it is
hereby made the duty of the said Mayor, or acting Mayor, to either approve or veto
the same. Two-thirds of the Aldermen present in council shall have the power to pass
an ordinance or resolution over the said veto, notwithstanding the same. The said
Mayor or acting Mayor shall have as long as five days (Sundays excepted) after the
passage of an ordinance or resolution by council in which to consider the same, should
time for consideration be desired by him, but unless he vetoes the said ordinance
or resolution within the said five days, the same shall become operative as completely
as if approved by him. In the event of a veto after the adjournment of the meeting
at which the ordinance or resolution is passed and within the said five days, the
said veto may be overruled by council at its next regular meeting thereafter by the
said two-thirds vote.
