3 member board voted unanimously on a motion. At a future meeting one member places a motion to rescind the original motion it does not get a second. The item is place on 2 additional agendas and there is no action no motion no motion to table. 3 months go by and the item is on the agenda again the same member moves to rescind original motion again this time it gets a second. No new information was provided.

Is this possible. Seems that a board can take action and then months later change that action for no appearent reason. Any insite would be appreciated. Thank you

All we can tell you here is what RONR says. Municipal boards are very likely subject to rules and laws that supersede ("overrule") RONR.

 

That's true, but it would be an odd statute indeed that would make it impossible to repeal earlier action.  Still, odd statutes unquestionably exist.

Does this also apply to motions and votes that pertain to municipal financed

 

Some additional information might help, but the fact that the motion "pertains to municipal finances," in and of itself, would not change any of the information you have received, at least so far as RONR is concerned.
