GENERAL PROVISIONS 1 -1.01, 1 -1.04 <br /> CHAPTER 1. GENERAL PROVISIONS <br /> SECTION 1. CITY CODE. <br /> 1 -1.01 Adoption of the Falcon Heights City Code. The ordinances <br /> of the City of Falcon Heights are hereby revised and <br /> codified and shall be operative without further publication <br /> in the official newspaper in accordance with Minnesota <br /> Statutes, Section 415.021. This code of ordinances shall <br /> be known as the City Code of Falcon Heightsiand may be so <br /> cited. <br /> For brevity hereafter, the City Code of Falcon Heights will <br /> sometimes be referred to as "this code" or "the city code." <br /> 1 -1.02 Subsequent Ordinances. Ordinances enacted after the <br /> effective date of this Code shall be enacted in accordance <br /> with law as amendments or additions to this Code. Such new <br /> ordinances shall be assigned appropriate code numbers and <br /> shall be incorporated into the code as of their effective <br /> date. Reference or citation to the code shall be deemed <br /> to include such amendments and additions. When an <br /> ordinance is integrated into the code, there may be omitted <br /> from the ordinance the title, enacting clause, section <br /> numbers, definitions of terms identical to those contained <br /> in this ordinance, the clause indicating date of adoption, <br /> and validating signatures and dates. In integrating <br /> ordinances into the code, the clerk, in cooperation with <br /> the city attorney, may correct obvious grammatical, <br /> punctuation, and spelling errors; change reference numbers <br /> to conform with subdivisions, sections, and chapters; <br /> substitute figures for written words and vice versa; <br /> substitute dates for the words "the effective date of this <br /> ordinance"; and perform like actions to ensure a uniform <br /> code of ordinances without altering the meaning of the <br /> ordinances enacted. <br /> 1 -1.03 Numbering. Each section number of this code consists of <br /> three component parts separated by a hyphen or decimal <br /> point. The first digit of the number refers to the chapter <br /> number, the digits after the hyphen refer to the section <br /> number and the digits after the decimal point refer to the <br /> subdivision. <br /> The code shall always be cited by using the section number <br /> consisting of three component parts. Thus this subdivision <br /> would be referred to as 1.03. <br /> 1 <br />
