The Silverton City Council voted Monday to censure Mayor Stu Rasmussen, alleging he violated council protocol.
This is the second time the openly transgendered mayor has been officially reprimanded.
Rasmussen was censured in 2009 after a complaint was filed about his attire at a youth leadership training event.
Citing the council protocol manual on Monday, Councilor Kyle Palmer said the mayor violated protocol by "speaking in a manner that undermines the integrity or motives of the council" because of a difference in opinion
