(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 III. No material changes of the Ohio 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, all references to “village”, as the term appears in the Ohio Revised Code, have been changed to read “municipality” throughout this Title III. However, the provisions of this chapter shall only apply to the administration of village local government.
