(A) Discretion. When preparing a supplement to this municipal code, the codifier (that is, the person, agency, or organization authorized to prepare the supplement) may make formal nonsubstantive changes in ordinances and parts of ordinances included in the supplement as necessary to embody them into a unified code. For example, the codifier may:
(1) Organize the ordinance material into appropriate sections and divisions;
(2) Provide appropriate catchlines, headings, and titles for sections and other subdivisions of the ordinance printed in the supplement and make changes in such catchlines, headings, and titles;
(3) Assign appropriate numbers to sections and other divisions to be inserted in the code and, where necessary to accommodate new material, change existing section or other division numbers;
(4) Change the words “this ordinance” or words of the same meaning to “this chapter”, “this subchapter”, “this section”, and the like, as may be appropriate, or to “§§ through “ (inserting section numbers to indicate the sections of the code which embody the substantive sections of the ordinance incorporated into the code);
(5) Insert appropriate section numbers in references to code sections such as “§ “ or “§§ through “ which are not filled in prior to adoption of an ordinance;
(6) Correct the spelling of words, correct obvious typographical errors, correct erroneous division and hyphenation of words, capitalize or decapitalize words, and make other similar changes in accordance with accepted usage or for consistency with other provisions of the code;
(7) Change terminology for consistency with terminology used in other provisions of the code; and
(8) Make other nonsubstantive changes necessary to incorporate ordinance material into the code while preserving the original meaning of the ordinance sections.
(B) Prohibition. In no case shall the codifier make any change in the meaning or effect of ordinance material included in the supplement or already embodied in the code and not repealed by any ordinance.
(A) Any person who shall violate or refuse to comply with the enforcement of any of the provisions of this chapter set forth at full length herein or incorporated by reference, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not more than $500 for each offense. A new violation shall be deemed to have been committed every 24 hours of such failure to comply.
(B) (1) Whenever a nuisance exists as defined in this chapter, the municipality may proceed by a suit in equity to enjoin, abate, and remove the same in the manner provided by law.
(2) Whenever, in any action, it is established that a nuisance exists, the court may, together with the fine or penalty imposed, enter an order of abatement as a part of the judgment in the case.
