§ 2.105. Mayor's duties and powers.

Said mayor shall have the same power as the justice of the peace, to witness and attest papers, to administer oaths, to issue criminal warrants and to hold courts of inquiry; he may commit offenders tried before him as a court of inquiry, or may admit them to bail in cases where a justice of the peace has power to bail. He shall have the right to remit or reduce the fines imposed by the municipal court imposed upon defendants charged with violating any of the city laws; he shall have authority to pardon all offenders convicted before the recorder's court. He shall be clothed with the power of veto; it shall be his right to veto all ordinances, resolutions, permits and privileges passed on or granted by said council if he sees fit to do so, and said veto shall in no wise be affected except by a two-thirds vote of council.
