If the finding is that the person elected was in fact ineligible for the office, tho court shall declare the office vacated. "The power of tile city council to judge the qualifications of its members is not exclusive although It is the primary authority, for determining whether a vacancy exists. If the council undertakes to determine the qualifications of its members, an elector may pi-ocecd under Elections Code 20020, et seq. Additionally, any delemtl- nailon by the council that a vacancy exists can be enforced only by court' action. If the council's decision is challenged, a court, proceeding known as quo warnmto must, be brought to oust the incumbent if he refuses- to icavo the office, or any new appointee if that is the direction of the challenge.

"The absence of established proct-dures for the of rnum-ii powers in determining qualifications, the inability of the council to compel an ousted member to vacate his scat without recourse to the courts, and the availability of court, determination of the matter re- rdli-ss of the council's determination must be considered by ihc council in undertaking to exercise' its powers under Govern inont Code 3GS12. In our opinion, the question of any eli- ibility for office can probably be determined oxpcdition- aly by tin? courts under the elections code procedure (Section et seq) if there Is an elector in the city who wishes to raise the issue."
