Whenever an ordinance by its nature either authorizes or enables the Village Commission or a certain village officer or employee to make additional regulations for the purpose of carrying out the intent of the ordinance, all regulations of a similar nature serving that purpose effected prior to the codification and not inconsistent thereto, shall remain in effect and are saved.
(A) Whenever any technical codes are incorporated herein by reference, any subsequent amendments or revisions to such technical codes shall automatically become a part of this code and shall be made available for public inspection by the village.
(B) Further, to the extent of any conflict between the technical provisions of this code and any technical codes adopted by reference, the most restrictive provision shall prevail.
(A) As histories for the code sections, the specific number and passage date of the original ordinance, and the amending ordinances, if any, are listed following the text of the code section. Example: (Ord. 10, passed 5-13-1960; Am. Ord. 15, passed 1-1-1970; Am. Ord. 20, passed 1-1-1980; Am. Ord. 25, passed 1-1-1985)
(B) An “ILCS” cite included in the history indicates that the text of the section reads either verbatim or substantially the same as the statute. Example: (ILCS Ch. 65, Act 5, § 3.1-2-1) (Ord. 10, passed 1-17-1980; Am. Ord. 20, passed 1-1-1985). An “ILCS” cite set forth as a “statutory reference” following the text of the section indicates that the reader should refer to that statute for further information. Example:
§ 38.04 PUBLIC RECORDS AVAILABLE.
The village shall make available to any person for inspection or copying all public records, as provided in the Illinois Freedom of Information Act.
