(A) Title III of this code of ordinances is designed to include and incorporate, insofar as is practical, all legislation concerning the organization, qualifications, appointment or election, terms of office, compensation, and the powers and duties of the officials, boards, and bodies of the village. Pertinent sections of the Ohio Revised Code relative to these village offices and boards have been assembled and adopted as a part of this Title. No material changes of the Revised Code sections referred to in the legislative histories have been made. The purpose of including these sections is to afford easy reference to the statutory provisions.
(B) In the interest of uniformity and consistency, most references to “village,” as the term appears in the Revised Code, have been changed to read “municipality” throughout this Title. However, the provisions of this Chapter shall only apply to the administration of village local government.
