The text
If the city council finds that any claim or demand is not a proper charge against the city, it shall be rejected by resolution or minute action. The fact of rejection shall be plainly endorsed upon the claim by the city clerk or his authorized representative. If any claim or demand is determined to be a proper charge against the city, the same shall be allowed only by resolution setting forth as to each claim the name of the claimant, a brief statement of the claim, and the amount allowed. Any claim may be allowed in part and rejected in part by the city council.
