→ Municipal Code – The update to our municipal code is still in process by the Municipal Code
Corporation. Here’s the latest update: Good morning, Amanda. Your project is still in the
"organization" stage, that is, our editors are working all ordinances into chapters and history
noting each section of the entire code. I wanted to check with the editorial supervisor to see
how much longer they expect to complete that phase, but she's out this morning. I'll get with
her later and get back with you.
When organization is complete, the project is released to me, and I'll start the legal review.
Things begin to move very quickly at that point.
