If the interruption continues, the Chair shall order the person’s removal from the meeting room. In the case of a general disturbance in any part of the meeting room open to the public, the Chair shall order that part to be cleared.
(2) If at any meeting any member, in the opinion of the Chair, indulges in misconduct by persistently disregarding the ruling of the Chair, or by behaving irregularly, improperly, offensively, or by willfully obstructing the business of the Joint Authority, the Chair or any other member may move “That the member named be not further heard” and the motion, if seconded, will be put and voted upon without discussion.
(3) If the member named continues the misconduct after a motion under paragraph (2) has been carried, the Chair shall either move “That the member named do leave the meeting” (in which case the motion shall be put and determined without seconding or discussion) or adjourn the meeting for such period as the Chair shall consider expedient.
