3.12 Authentication and Publication of Ordinances and Resolutions.
   After passage by the Council, each ordinance and resolution shall be authenticated by the signatures of the Mayor and City Clerk and recorded in a book kept for that purpose; however, failing to authenticate shall not invalidate the ordinance or resolution. Within ten days after passage, each ordinance and resolution, except ordinances and resolutions providing for or directing an investigation of City affairs and ordinances or resolutions requesting information from City officers or directing administrative action, shall be published in such manner as may be provided by ordinance or resolution, but if newspaper publication is specified then each such ordinance and resolution shall be published once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City. The publication in book form of any codification, revision or rearrangement of ordinances and resolutions passed by the Council, if such book contains the certificate of the Mayor and City Clerk of the correctness thereof, shall be deemed sufficient publication, and any book so published and certified shall be validly published and shall be received as evidence in any court for the purpose of proving the ordinances or resolutions therein contained.
   3.13   Publication for Public Hearings
   A public hearing required by law to be published by the City shall be published electronically on the City's website or in a newspaper of general circulation in the City or may be supplemented with other electronic media generally available to the public.
