§ 2.05.330. Suit.

Any claim or demand against the City or against any City officer in such officer's official capacity, payable out of any City fund under control of the City Treasurer shall be filed and presented to the City Council as herein provided before any suit may be brought thereon. No suit may be brought on any claim until it has been rejected in whole or in part. If the City Council refuses or neglects to allow or reject a claim for 45 days after it is filed with the City Clerk, the claimant may treat such refusal or neglect as final action and rejection on the 45th day.
