Council needs four voting members to call a meeting to order, according to Hillsboro Law Director Fred Beery. The only voting members of council who were in attendance were Rod Daniels, Peter Pence and Brian Waller.
The June 14 was the first regular council meeting that Daniels had attended in several months, as he has been out of town on military duties. 
"Each council member is aware that we meet the second Monday of every month," Koogler said June 14. "Had I known that we would not have enough members for a quorum I would have rescheduled the meeting.
