Veto power of the city mayor.
Section 21
SEC. 21. Veto power of the city mayor.—Within ten days after receipt of the appropriation ordinance, or any resolution or motion directing the payment of money or creating liability, the city mayor shall return it with his approval or veto. If he takes no action within the time prescribed, it shall be deemed to have been approved. If he returns it with his veto, his reasons therefor must be stated in writing. The ordinance, resolution, or motion may then be re-enacted by the affirmation votes of at least two-thirds of all the members of the board or council, in which case the same shall again be forwarded to the city mayor for his approval. If within ten days after receipt of the re-enacted ordinance, resolution, or motion, the city mayor takes no action, it shall be deemed to have been approved, but if within said time the city mayor again returns it with his veto, stating writing his reasons therefor, the ordinance, resolution, or motion, if re-enacted by a two-thirds vote, shall be forwarded forthwith by the board or council to the Secretary of Finance for his approval or disapproval within thirty days after receipt thereof. The decision of the Secretary shall be final.
