This is good!
(And my PC doesn't flag any supposed misprint of "ll")

Hi,

That is a good simple way to say it.  I like it.

Yet,

To make it more explicit, even if a little less simple we might want to 
consider something like:

An absent council member does not count toward quorum even if a proxy has been 
established.  A temporary replacement, if present, would count toward quorum.

(note i avoided the controversy over how to spell councilor)

a.
