Ordinances, resolutions, and orders for the appropriation of money shall require for their passage or adoption the concurrence of a majority of the governing body of any city or town. Unless otherwise specifically provided by statute or ordinance, all other actions of the governing body upon which a vote is taken shall require for adoption the concurrence of a majority of those present if a quorum exists. All ordinances may be proven by the seal of the city or town, and, when printed in book or pamphlet form and purporting to be printed and published by authority of the city or town, the same shall be received in evidence in all courts and places without further proof.
