40-11A. Same; Codification.

(a)    The Council may provide for the codification or recodification of
any or all of the ordinances of the City, in permanently bound or looseleaf
form. Such ordinances may be changed, altered or amended in such
manner as the Council may direct, and ordinances or portions thereof may
be deleted and new material may be added as directed by the Council. Such
changes, alterations, amendments or deletions and such new material shall
become effective on the effective date of the codification or recodification.

(b)    Such codification or recodification may be adopted by reference
by a single ordinance, without further publication of such codification or
recodification or any portions thereof. The ordinance adopting such codifi-
cation or recodification shall comply with all laws of the State and any
provision of this Charter governing adoption, posting and publication of
ordinances.

(c)    Supplements for any such codification or recodification may be
prepared from time to time at the direction of the Council, either as a unit
or on a replacement page basis, provided, that where replacement pages
are prepared, a distinguishing mark or notation shall be placed on each
replacement page to distinguish it from original pages and pages of other
supplements. No further adoption procedure shall be required for a supple-
ment in which no substantive change is made in ordinances validly adopted
by the Council. If changes, alterations, amendments, deletions or additions
of a substantive nature are made in any such supplement, then such
supplement shall be adopted by the Council in the same manner provided
in this section for the adoption of codification and recodifications.

(d)    At least one copy of any codification or recodification adopted
hereunder and at least one copy of every supplement thereto shall be kept
in the office of the City Clerk, and shall there be available for public inspec-
tion during normal business hours.
