(b) CODIFICATION. Within three years after adoption of this Charter and at least every ten years thereafter, the City Council shall provide for the preparation of a general codification of all City ordinances and resolutions having the force and effect of law. The general codification shall be adopted by the City Council by ordinance and shall be published promptly in bound or looseleaf form, together with this Charter and any amendments thereto, and such codes of technical regulations and other rules and regulations as the City Council may specify. This compilation shall be known and cited officially as the Hancock City Code. Copies of the code shall be furnished to City officers, placed in libraries and public offices for free public reference and made available for purchase by the public at a reasonable price fixed by the City Council.

Following publication of the first Hancock City Code and at all times thereafter, the ordinances, resolutions and Charter amendments shall be printed in substantially the same style as the code currently in effect and shall be suitable in form for integration therein. The City Council shall make such further arrangements as it deems desirable with respect to reproduction and distribution of any current changes in or additions to the codes of technical regulations and other rules and regulations included in the code.
