The proclamation shall be in writing and state the Mayor’s findings. The Mayor shall take reasonable steps to give notice of the terms of the proclamation to those affected by it and shall post a copy of it in the City Hall.

(B) The proclamation shall specify the geographical area or areas in which the restrictions apply.
(C) The Mayor may amend the proclamation from time to time, making such modifications in the geographical area to which it applies as he or she determines to be necessary to maintain the purposes of the prohibition.
